FUV Owner's Guide - 10
NOTE
For our Oregon based customers, Arcimoto
recommends training with "
Team Oregon " (an
authorized MSF (Motorcycle Safety Foundation)

l
Until you are familiar with the FUV and all of its
controls, practice driving and braking at moderate
speeds in a safe area before driving in traffic.
l
Ride defensively, as if you are invisible to other
motorists, even in broad daylight. Smaller profile
vehicles such as the FUV may not be immediately
seen and recognized by some motorists, which can
lead to accidents. Ride where you’re clearly visible
to other motorists, and observe their behavior
carefully. Always be prepared to take evasive
action.
l
Know your skills and limits, and ride within them.
