which implies the following obligations for
the owner:
– new homologation;
– new registration;
– appropriate driving license.
Further, said modifications cause the loss
of the insurance cover, since insurance
policies expressly prohibit to make techni-
cal changes aimed at increasing the vehi-
cle performance levels.
For the reasons stated above, the failure to
comply with the tampering prohibition is
punished by law with appropriate sanctions
(including the confiscation of the vehicle),
which, according to the case, can be com-
bined with the sanctions provided for not
using the crash helmet and/or the number
plate, for the violation of fiscal obligations
(ownership tax) and with penal sanctions
provided for using the vehicle without driv-
ing license.
For only vehicles over 50 cm 3
Any modification of the vehicle and/or the
removal of original components can com-
promise vehicle performance levels and
safety or even make it illegal.
We recommend respecting all regulations
and national and local provisions regarding
the equipment of the vehicle.
In particular, avoid all modifications that in-
crease the vehicle’s performance levels or
alter its original characteristics.
Never race with other vehicles.
Avoid off-road driving.

Before starting, always wear a correctly
fastened crash helmet. Make sure that it is
homologated, in good shape, of the right
size and that the visor is clean.
Wear protective clothing, preferably in light
and/or reflecting colours.
In this way you will make yourself more vis-
ible to the other drivers, thus notably re-
ducing the risk of being knocked down, and
you will be more protected in case of fall.
This clothing should be very tight-fitting
and fastened at the wrists and ankles.
Strings, belts and ties should not be hang-
ing loose; prevent these and other objects
from interfering with driving by getting en-
tangled with moving parts or driving mech-
anisms.
