Important Safety Information
A motorcycle can provide many years of service and pleasure, provided you take responsibility for
safety, properly maintain your motorcycle and understand the challenges you may encounter
while riding.
This motorcycle has been designed for younger riders. However, not all youngsters meet the
physical and emotional levels that are needed for riding. Before parents allow any children to ride
this motorcycle, we strongly recommend that they read this entire manual so that they are fully
informed before deciding if their children are ready to ride. Listed below are some of the most
important safety measures one should take when riding.
The following statement is a proven fact: ``Helmets
significantly reduce the number and severity of head injuries.” Never ride your motorcycle without
a helmet. Even a crash at slow speed can result in a fatal head injury if you are not wearing a
helmet. Monster Motors recommends wearing helmets that have been certified for safety by helmet
testing organizations whom are independent from the helmet manufacturer. We also recommend
that you wear eye protection, boots, gloves, and other protective gear such as off-road riding
pants.

This motorcycle has been designed for ONE rider only.
There are no passenger pegs, footrests, handles or seat room for a passenger.
Riding with a
passenger can interfere with your ability to operate and/or control the motorcycle and may result
in serious injury or death.
This motorcycle has been designed and manufactured for off-
road use only. The motorcycle is not equipped with lights, turn signals, horn and other features
required to drive a motorcycle on public roads. The tires are not designed for pavement and will
make the motorcycle unstable if it is ridden on pavement. If you have to cross a paved road,
dismount and walk the motorcycle across the road.
Never attempt to ride your motorcycle in a manner that is
beyond your skill level. It takes time to learn off-road riding skills. Learn to ride your motorcycle
step by step. Start by practicing on safe terrain at slow speeds and gradually build your skill level.
Instruction from an experienced rider(s) is highly recommended. Remember that alcohol, drug
use, fatigue and ignorance can reduce your ability to make good decisions and ride safely.
The terrain in which you ride can present many hazards.
Always “scan” the terrain ahead of you continually. Watch for un-expected turns, drop-offs,
ditches, rocks and other hazards. Always maintain a speed slow enough to allow you enough time
to see and react to hazards.
Even one drink can impair your ability to ride a motorcycle
safely. Each drink afterward will make the impairment worse. Do not drink and ride. Do not let
your friend’s drink and ride. Remember, in most states throughout the United States, you can be
arrested and charged with Driving Under the Influence (DUI) if you are riding a motorcycle while
intoxicated. This applies to off-road motorcycles as well.
