Protective Apparel
For your safety, we strongly recommend that you always wear an D.O.T. Approved motorcycle
helmet, eye protection, boots, gloves, long pants, and long-sleeved shirt or jacket whenever
you drive.
Aothough complete protection is not possible, wearing proper gear can reduce the chance of
injury should you have an accident.
The following suggestions will help you choose the proper protective gear.
Helmets and Eyes Protection
Your helmet is your most important piece of protective gear because it offers the best
protect ion against hea d injuries. A helmet should fit your head comfortably and securely.
An open-f ace helmet offers some protection, but a full-face helmet offers more. Regardless
of the style, look for a D.O.T. (Department of Transportation) sticker on any helmet you buy.
Always wear a face shield or goggles to protect your eyes and help your vision.
Operating this kart without wearing an approved motorcycle helmet, eye protection,
and protective clothing could increase your chances of head and/or eye injury, and the
possibility of death in the event of a severe accident.
Always wear an approved motorcycle helmet that fits properly and wear eye protection
(goggles or face shield), gloves, boots, long-sleeved shirt or jacket and long pants.
