PROTECTIVE APPAREL
1.
Most motorcycle accident fatalities are
due to head injuries: ALWAYS wear a
helmet. You should also wear a face
shield or goggles as well as boots, gloves
and protective clothing. A passenger
needs the same protection.
2. The exhaust system becomes hot
during operation, and it remains hot for
a while after stopping the engine. Be
careful not to touch the exhaust system
while it is hot. Wear clothing that fully
covers your legs.
3. Do not wear loose clothing which could
catch on the control levers, kickstarter,
footpegs, drive chain or wheels.
