CARRYING A PASSENGER, CARGO OR TOWING A TRAILER
The passenger should use its audio
control in respect to the rider's direc-
tives.
Be sure the passenger is wearing ap-
propriate protective gear. The passen-
ger should wear all of the protective
gear recommended for the operator,
particularly a helmet. A full-face hel-
met is recommended; in a sudden
stop, the passenger’s face can strike
the back of the operator's helmet.
Keep the brakes applied and the trans-
mission in neutral until the passenger
is in riding position.
Instruct the passenger on how to ride
before starting out. Have the passen-
ger follow these rules:
1. Maintain proper riding position.
Hold the passenger handholds
and keep feet on the passenger
footrests at all times. The passen-
ger footrest height is adjustable.
Refer to
ADJUSTING THE PASSEN-
GER FOOTREST
.
The passenger should not hold on
to the operator as the operator may
not be able to withstand the lateral
force generated by both.
Different gripping positions on the
handholds may be more comfort-
able for different maneuvers. (e.g.,
one hand at the front corner of and
one hand at the opposite back cor-
ner for turns, both hands further for-
ward or back for other situations).

A. Different gripping positions on the
handholds
2. Stay clear of the exhaust pipe, the
rear wheel and the drive belt.
3. Avoid turning around or leaning ex-
cept to keep balance in a turn. In an
unexpected maneuver, a passenger
who is not in the normal riding posi-
tion is more likely to fall off.
4. Watch the road and respond to up-
coming road conditions. Lean into
curves as needed to resist any side-
ways force. When crossing an ob-
stacle, hole or bump, rise slightly
off the seat without locking your el-
bows.
Avoid abrupt acceleration, braking and
turns, especially with inexperienced
passengers. Sudden, unexpected ma-
neuvers can make the passenger fall
off.

compartments. Do not carry cargo in
any other location unless the vehicle

sories.
Never store flammable items, such as
