Before Riding
Before your first ride on your new motorcycle we strongly
recommended you:
● Read the owner’s manual.
● Understand all safety labels.
● Know how to operate all controls.
Before you ride each time, make sure:
● You are in good physical and mental health.
● You are wearing protective gear (helmet, clothing, eye
protection etc.) If you have a passenger be sure they also have
protective gear on.
● You do not have ANY alcohol or drugs in your system.
Protective Clothing
For your protection we urge you to ALWAYS wear protective
clothing. The proper clothes can protect you from injury. Wear an
approved motorcycle helmet, goggles, a good pair of gloves, strong
boots that cover the ankle, long pants, and a long sleeve shirt every
time you ride.
Helmets and Eye protection-
A DOT approved motorcycle helmet is the most important part of
your protective gear. A DOT approved motorcycle helmet can help
prevent a serious head injury. Choose a helmet that fits snugly.
Motorcycle dealers can help in selecting a good quality helmet which
fits properly.
WARNING
!
Not wearing a helmet greatly increases your chances of
serious head injuries or death in the event of an accident.
If you are riding with a passenger be sure they are also
wearing a helmet and eye protection.
