Safe riding practices
1
SINGLE OPERATOR ONLY! No passengers!
2
Long hair, loose clothing or items worn by the rider must be covered to prevent
entanglement in moving parts of the vehicle or the surroundings whilst riding
3
Do not exceed the weight limit. Heavier riders may significantly reduce performance
and/or render the vehicle unstable and/or over-tax the brakes and other control
devices. Heavier riders may cause structural damage not covered by the warranty.
4
Do not touch any moving or hot parts.
5
DO NOT RIDE AT NIGHT OR UNDER LOW VISIBILITY CONDITIONS. The KUBERG
Challenger is not equipped with lights.
6
Do not immerse this vehicle in water.
7
Do not ride on steep or uneven surfaces. Steep or uneven surfaces greatly increase
the likelihood of loss-of-control.
8
Do not ride faster than the conditions permit for safe operation. Excess speed
greatly increases the likelihood of loss-of-control.
9
The rider should have one leg on the foot peg ready to ride before turning the power
switch on.
Ride where other motorists, pedestrians and cyclists can see you. Avoid riding in another
motorist’s blind spot. Know your skills and limits. Stay within your limits in order to avoid
an accident.
NOTE:
Many motorcycle accidents are caused by rider error. A typical error made by motorcycle
riders is veering wide on a turn due to EXCESSIVE SPEED or under cornering due to
insufficient lean angle for the given speed.
WARNING!
Maintain a proper posture while riding. The posture of the rider is important for proper
control of the motorcycle. The rider should keep both hands on the handlebars and both
feet on the foot pegs during operation in order to maintain control of the motorcycle.
Never ride under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.
Go to page 27
to find detailed
instructions concerning proper riding technique.
One rider only
Your motorcycle was engineered to carry one rider and no (0) passengers. Carrying
a passenger would overload the motorcycle and alter the handling. Do not allow this
to happen.
Do not overload the motorcycle
Exceeding the weight limitations will adversely affect the handling of the motorcycle,
and potentially cause damage.
Obey all laws
Obey all laws. KUBERG bikes are for OFF-ROAD USE ONLY (except the KUBERG Freerider
Street). KUBERG motorcycles cannot be used on public roads or sidewalks.
The purchaser, owner, and/or riders of this motorcycle are directly responsible for
ensuring that they obey all local, state, federal and national laws regarding the riding
and use of this motorcycle.
Weather & riding conditions
Do not ride in the rain or snow. Please be aware that distance required to stop under wet
conditions may be double or even triple the usual distance required under dry conditions.
If riding in adverse weather conditions, ride more slowly and anticipate your stops by
applying the brakes MUCH earlier. Do not allow young riders to ride on slopes that are too
steep for their ability.
Night time
Do not ride after dark or in low light conditions.
Batteries
We have equipped your KUBERG Challenger with highly advanced lithium-ion batteries.
Go to page 23
to learn about these batteries and the correct charging procedure.
Be aware of the motorcycle’s chain
Under no circumstances should hands or other body parts be close to a moving
motorcycle chain. Riders should wear motorcycle boots without laces, and should not
wear any loose clothing that could be caught by the chain.
