Always turn off the engine when refuelling.
Do not refuel or open the fuel filler cap
while smoking or in the vicinity of any
open (naked) flame.
Take care not to spill any petrol on the
engine, exhaust pipes or silencers when
refuelling.
If petrol is swallowed, inhaled or allowed to
get into the eyes, seek immediate medical
attention.
Spillage on the skin should be immediately
washed off with soap and water and
clothing contaminated with petrol should
immediately be removed.
Burns and other serious skin conditions
may result from contact with petrol.
Warning
Never start your engine or let it run for any
length of time in a closed area. The

Helmet and Clothing
Warning
When riding the motorcycle, both rider
and passenger must always wear a
motorcycle helmet, boots, eye protection,
gloves, trousers (close fitting around the
knee and ankle) and a brightly coloured
jacket. Brightly coloured clothing will
considerably increase a
passenger's) visibility to other operators of
road vehicles. Although full protection is
not possible, wearing correct protective
clothing can reduce the risk of injury when
riding.
Warning
A helmet is one of the most important
pieces of riding gear as it offers protection
against head injuries. You and your
passenger's helmet should be carefully
chosen and should fit you or your
passenger's head comfortably
securely. A brightly coloured helmet will
increase a rider's (or passenger's) visibility
to other operators of road vehicles.
An open face helmet
protection in an accident though a full face
helmet will offer more.
Always wear a visor or approved goggles
to help vision and to protect your eyes.
