    F. FOR YOUR SAFETY 1. SAFETY ADVICE CONCERNING THE HELMET Motorcycling is associated with particular risks and dangers for the rider and passenger. Wearing a helmet can reduce but not eliminate the risk of serious injuries. It is impossible to state precisely what the protective effect of a helmet will be in the event of an accident.

  • Page 35: Safety Advice Concerning The Visor/ Sun Visor

    F. FOR YOUR SAFETY Examine the helmet for damage at regular intervals. Small scratches will not impair the protective function of your helmet. The helmet should be replaced after 5 to 7 years, depending on use and care. Although the outer shell is in principle capable of a longer service life, the occurrence of material fatigue and wear to other components, as well as the overall action of the helmet and the unknown conditions in which the helmet has been used, make it advisable for your own safety to replace...

  • Page 36: Safety Advice Concerning Modifications/ Accessories

    F. FOR YOUR SAFETY 3. SAFETY ADVICE CONCERNING MODIFICATIONS/ ACCESSORIES Original components (in particular on the outer shell, inner shell and restraint system) should not be altered or removed. The fitting of additional parts from other manufacturers that have not been recommended can reduce the protective effect and renders the ECE certification and all warranty and insurance claims invalid.
