CARRYING A PASSENGER OR CARGO
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 pegs at
all times, even with the accessory
backrest.
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).

DIFFERENT GRIPPING POSITIONS ON THE
HANDHOLDS
2. Never touch the parking brake ped-
al with your left foot. Engaging the
parking brake while the vehicle is
moving can cause a crash.
3. Stay clear of the exhaust pipe, the
rear wheel and the drive belt.
4. Avoid turning around or leaning ex-
cept to keep balance in a turn. In an
unexpected maneuver, a passen-
ger who is not in the normal riding
position is more likely to fall off.
5. Watch the road and respond to up-
coming road conditions. Lean in-
to curves as needed to resist any
sideways force. When crossing an
obstacle, hole or bump, rise slight-
ly off the seat without locking your
elbows.
Avoid abrupt acceleration, braking and
turns, especially with inexperienced
passengers. Sudden, unexpected ma-
neuvers can make the passenger fall
off.
Where to Store Cargo
You can carry cargo in the front storage
compartment. Do not carry cargo in
any other location unless the vehicle
is equipped with approved BRP acces-
sories.
Front Storage Compartment
The front storage compartment has
room to store light objects, such as
two helmets. Do not put more than
35 lb (16 kg) in the front storage com-
partment, even if the items fit. Never
store flammable items, such as fu-
el, in the front storage compartment.
A front storage compartment liner is
available. The front storage compart-
ment includes a designated space for
this Operator’s Guide and a tool kit.

Make sure the front storage compart-
ment latch is secure before riding.
No Towing
Do not tow anything with the vehicle.
The VSS will not be effective, and you
will be more likely to lose control.
