Protective clothing
For your safety, we strongly recommend that you always wear an approved motorcycle
helmet, eye protection, boots, gloves, long pants, and a long-sleeved shirt or jacket
whenever you ride. Although complete protection is not possible, wearing proper gear
can reduce the chance of injury. See your PIAGGIO Dealer for stylish, comfortable
and effective riding gear suggestions.
Helmets and eye protection
Your helmet is most important item of riding gear as it offers the best protection pos-
sible against head injury. The helmet must be comfortable and fitted correctly. Wearing
a helmet with bright colours or with reflector strips makes you more visible in traffic.
Remember that a full face helmet offers even more protection than an open helmet.
Always remember to fasten your helmet correctly.
Additional riding gear
In addition to a helmet and eye protection, we also recommend:
•
Properly fitted boots with nonslip soles to help protect your feet and ankles.
•
Leather gloves to keep your hands warm and help prevent blisters, cuts,
burns and bruises.
