Warning
GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE:
Always turn off the engine when refuelling.
Do not refuel or open the fuel filler cap
while smoking or in the vicinity of any
open (naked) flame.
Take care not to spill any gasoline on the
engine, exhaust pipes or mufflers when
refuelling.
If gasoline is swallowed, inhaled or allowed
to get into the eyes, seek immediate
medical attention.
Spillage on the skin should be immediately
washed off with soap and water and
clothing contaminated with gasoline
should immediately be removed.
Burns and other serious skin conditions
may result from contact with gasoline.
Warning
Never start your engine or let it run for any
length of time in a closed area. The
exhaust fumes are poisonous and may
cause loss of consciousness and death
within a short time. Always operate your
motorcycle in the open-air or in an area
with adequate ventilation.
Warning
Never ride the motorcycle when fatigued
or under the influence of alcohol or other
drugs.
Riding when under the influence of alcohol
or other drugs is illegal.
Riding when fatigued or under the
influence of alcohol or other drugs reduces
the rider's ability to maintain control of the
motorcycle and may lead to loss of control
and an accident.
Warning
All riders must be licensed to operate the
motorcycle. Operation of the motorcycle
without a license is illegal and could lead to
prosecution.
Operation of the motorcycle without
formal training in the correct riding
techniques that are necessary to become
licensed is dangerous and may lead to loss
of motorcycle control and an accident.
