Foreword - Safety First
Handlebars and Footrests
1. Bank angle indicators
Warning
The rider must maintain control of the
vehicle by keeping hands on the
handlebars at all times.
The handling and stability of a motorcycle
will be adversely affected if the rider
removes his hands from the handlebars,
resulting in loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.
Warning
The rider and passenger must always use
the footrests provided, during operation of
the vehicle.
By using the footrests, both rider and
passenger will reduce the risk of
inadvertent contact with any motorcycle
components and will also reduce the risk of
injury from entrapment of clothing.
Warning
The bank angle indicators must not be
used as a guide to how far the motorcycle
may be safely banked. This depends on
many various conditions including, but not
limited to, road surface, tire condition and
weather.
Banking to an unsafe angle will lead to loss
of motorcycle control and an accident.
Warning
When banking and the bank angle
indicator, attached to the rider’s footboard,
makes contact with the ground, the
motorcycle is nearing its bank angle limit.
A further increase of the banking angle is
unsafe.
Banking to an unsafe angle may cause
instability, loss of motorcycle control and
an accident.
