OPERATING PROCEDURES
AND PRACTICE
C
arefully observe your youngster’s first use of
the motorcycle. Observe his or her readiness
to ride. Only permit your youngster to continue
to ride if they have the size, strength, and attitude
needed to ride safely.
Show your youngster the engine, exhaust pipe,
and muffler. Tell him or her not to touch these
parts because they are hot while the engine is
running. Explain that they will remain hot after
the engine is stopped. Also explain that hands
and feet must be kept away from moving parts
of the motorcycle.
Your youngster’s safety depends in part on
the mechanical condition of the motorcycle. Be
sure to inspect it thoroughly before each use.
Starting and refueling of the vehicle should be
done by responsible adults only. Follow a regular
maintenance program. See the owner’s manual
for inspection details.
Even after young riders have learned the basic
riding skills, direct supervision by an experienced
adult is necessary AT ALL TIMES. Make sure
that all off-highway motorcycle users under
your supervision get proper riding instructions.
Stress that an OHM is not a toy. Follow safety
precautions strictly to provide a “safety first”
approach to off-highway motorcycle riding.
Teaching your youngster how to ride an OHM
safely will increase the enjoyment of off-highway
motorcycle riding.
Learning Area/Riding Area
The best place for learning is a level area 100'
x 200' that is free from obstacles such as rocks,
stumps, or holes. The learning area may have a
loose or hard dirt surface. A grassy surface is also
acceptable. It should not have two different surfaces.
Under no circumstances should the surface be
concrete or asphalt. Be sure there is room enough
to maneuver, and that no other riders are close.
