Do not take prescription or other drugs before riding
unless you have consulted your doctor about their
side effects.
Attention
Some medications and drugs may cause
drowsiness or other effects that slow down reaction
time and the rider's ability to control the motorcycle,
possibly leading to an accident.
Some states require vehicle insurance.
Attention
Check your state laws. Obtain insurance
coverage and keep your insurance document secure
with the other motorcycle documents.
To protect rider and passenger safety, some states
mandate the use of a certified helmet.
Attention
Check your state laws. Riding without a helmet
may be punishable by law.
Attention
Riders without helmets are more likely to suffer
severe bodily injury or die if they are in an accident.
Attention
Check that your helmet complies with safety
specifications, permits good vision, is the right size
for your head, and carries a certification label
indicating that it conforms to the standards in force
in your state. Road traffic laws differ from state to
state. Learn about traffic laws in your state before
riding and always obey them.
Rider's training
Accidents are frequently due to inexperience.
Riding, manoeuvres and braking must be performed
in a different way than on the other vehicles.
Attention
Untrained riders or a wrong use of the vehicle
may lead to loss of control, serious injuries or even
death.
Apparel
Riding gear is very important for safety. Unlike cars,
a motorcycle offers no impact protection in an
accident.
Proper riding gear includes helmet, eye protection,
gloves, boots, long sleeve jacket and long trousers.
