VEHICLE SAFETY

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Your vehicle can provide many years
of service and pleasure – if you take
responsibility for your own safety and
understand the challenges that you can
meet on the road.
There is much that you can do to protect
yourself when you ride. You'll find many
helpful recommendations
this manual. Following are a few that we
consider most important.
Always Wear a Helmet
It's a proven fact: Helmets significantly
reduce the number and severity of head
injuries. So always wear a helmet and
make sure your pillion rider does the same.
We also recommend that you wear eye
protection, sturdy boots, gloves and other
protective gear (page 4).

Make Yourself Easy to see
Some drivers do not see vehicles because
they are not looking for them. To make
yourself more visible, wear bright reflective
clothing, position yourself so other drivers
can see you, signal before turning or
changing lanes, and use your horn when
required, it will help others notice you.
Don't Drink and Ride
throughout
Alcohol and riding don't mix. Even one
drink can reduce your ability to respond
to changing conditions, and your reaction
time gets worse with every additional drink.
So don't drink and ride, and don't let your
friends drink and ride either.
Ride Within Your Limits
Pushing the limits is another major cause of
vehicle accidents. Never ride beyond your
personal abilities or faster than conditions
warrant. Remember that alcohol, drugs,
fatigue and inattention can significantly
reduce
judgements and ride safely.
