ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET
The operator and passenger (if any) of this vehicle should always
wear a helmet approved by agencies such as Department of
Transportation (DOT), Safety Helmet Council of America (SHCA),
or Snell Memorial Foundation (SNELL). Most motorcycle accident
fatalities are due to head injuries. The operator should also wear
face shields or goggles, boots or closed-toe shoes, gloves, and
other appropriate protective clothing.
TAKE TIME TO LEARN AND PRACTICE
Take time to get to know this vehicle. The operator's ability to
operate this motorcycle safely is largely dependent upon the
operator's ability to exercise proper judgment. The operator must
be of sufficient age, understanding, mental capacity, and
physical capability to safely operate this vehicle. This vehicle
should only be operated after sufficient practice in a
decongested safe area. Safe operation includes responsibility
for the safety of a passenger (if any). We recommend that any
inexperienced driver should take a certified course approved by
the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF).
RIDE DEFENSIVELY
A common accident happens when a car suddenly moves into
your lane. Most motorcycle collisions happen when a car turns
left in front of a motorcycle. Pay extra attention to other vehicles
around you, never expect that they can see you.
