Useful information for safe riding
Warning
Read this section before riding your motorcycle.
Accidents are frequently due to inexperience. Always
make sure you have your licence with you when riding;
you need a valid licence to be entitled to ride your
motorcycle.
Do not lend your motorcycle to inexperienced riders or
who do not hold a valid licence.
Riders and passengers must
always
wear a safety
helmet.
Wear proper clothing, with no loose items or accessories
that may become tangled in the controls or limit your zone
of vision.
Never start or run the engine indoors. Exhaust gases are
poisonous and may lead to loss of consciousness or even
death within a short time.
The rider should keep his/her feet on the footpegs when
the motorcycle is in motion.
Always
hold the handlebars firmly with both hands so you
will be ready for sudden changes in direction or in the road
surface.
Ride within the law and observe national and local rules.
Always
respect speed limits where these are posted.
However,
always
adjust your speed to the visibility, road
and traffic conditions you are riding in.
Always
signal your intention to turn or pull to the next lane
in good time using the suitable turn indicators.
Be sure you are clearly visible and do not ride within the
blind spot of vehicles ahead.
Be very careful when tackling road junctions, or when
riding in the areas near exits from private grounds, car
parks or on slip roads to access motorways.
Always
turn off the engine when refuelling. Be extremely
careful not to spill fuel on the engine or on the exhaust
pipe when refuelling.
Do not smoke when refuelling.
While refuelling, you may inhale noxious fuel vapours.
Should any fuel drops be spilled on your skin or clothing,
immediately wash with soap and water and change your
clothing.
Always
remove the key when you leave your motorcycle
unattended.
The engine, exhaust pipes, and mufflers stay hot for a long
time.
Warning
The exhaust system might be hot, even after engine
is switched off; pay particular attention not to touch
exhaust system with any body part and do not park the
vehicle next to inflammable material (wood, leaves etc.).
Park your motorcycle where no one is likely to hit it and
use the side stand.
Never park on uneven or soft ground or your motorcycle
may fall over.
