Carrying Passengers & Loading
! WARNING
:
•
This scooter is rated for 2 passengers; total weight of the rider and the
passenger must not exceed 330 lbs.
•••••
Do not exceed 17.5 lbs of cargo.
•••••
Attach the load securely since a loose load can catch in the wheel or rack
causing skidding.
You should avoid carrying passengers or large loads until you have gained sufficient
experience riding alone. Extra weight changes handling, stability, braking performance, turns,
acceleration and deceleration.
To carry passengers safely you must:
1. Instruct the passenger before you start.
•
Must wear a helmet.
•
Get on the motorcycle after you have started the engine.
•
Sit as far forward as possible without crowding the driver.
•
Hold firmly to your waist, hips, or belt or passenger handle.
•
Keep both feet on the pegs at all time, even when the motorcycle is stopped.
•
Keep legs away from the muffler.
•
Stay directly behind you, leaning as you lean.
•
Avoid any unnecessary talking or motion.
