Warning
Do not carry animals on your motorcycle.
An animal could make sudden and
unpredictable movements that could lead
to loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Warning
The handling and braking capabilities of a
motorcycle will be affected by the presence
of a passenger. The rider must make
allowances for these changes when
operating the motorcycle with a passenger
and should not attempt such operation
unless trained to do so and without
becoming familiar and comfortable with
the changes in motorcycle operating
characteristics that this brings about.
Motorcycle operation without making
allowances for the presence of a passenger
could lead to loss of motorcycle control
and an accident.
Warning
Never attempt to store any items between
the frame and the fuel tank. This can
restrict the steering and will cause loss of
control leading to an accident.
Weight attached to the handlebar or front
fork will increase the mass of the steering
assembly and can result in loss of steering
control leading to an accident.
Warning
Do not carry a passenger unless he or she
is tall enough to reach the footrests
provided.
A passenger who is not tall enough to
reach the footrests will be unable to sit
securely on the motorcycle and may cause
instability leading to loss of control and an
accident.
