SAFETY INFORMATION
EAU10281
MOTORCYCLES ARE SINGLE TRACK
VEHICLES. THEIR SAFE USE AND
OPERATION ARE DEPENDENT UPON
THE USE OF PROPER RIDING
TECHNIQUES AS WELL AS THE
EXPERTISE OF THE OPERATOR.
EVERY OPERATOR SHOULD KNOW
THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS
BEFORE RIDING THIS MOTORCYCLE.
HE OR SHE SHOULD:l
OBTAIN THOROUGH
INSTRUCTIONS FROM A
COMPETENT SOURCE ON ALL
ASPECTS OF MOTORCYCLE
OPERATION.
l
OBSERVE THE WARNINGS AND
MAINTENANCE
REQUIREMENTS IN THE
OWNER’S MANUAL.
l
OBTAIN QUALIFIED TRAINING IN
SAFE AND PROPER RIDING
TECHNIQUES.
l
OBTAIN PROFESSIONAL
TECHNICAL SERVICE AS
INDICATED BY THE OWNER’S
MANUAL AND/OR WHEN MADE
NECESSARY BY MECHANICAL
CONDITIONS.Safe riding
l
Always make pre-operation checks.
Careful checks may help prevent
an accident.
l
This motorcycle is designed to
carry the operator and a passenger.
l
The failure of motorists to detect
and recognize motorcycles in traffic
is the predominating cause of
automobile/motorcycle accidents.
Many accidents have been caused
by an automobile driver who did not
see the motorcycle. Making
yourself conspicuous appears to be
very effective in reducing the
chance of this type of accident.
Therefore:lWear a brightly colored jacket.lUse extra caution when you are
approaching and passing through
intersections, since intersections
are the most likely places for
motorcycle accidents to occur.lRide where other motorists can
see you. Avoid riding in another
motorist’s blind spot.
l
Many accidents involve
inexperienced operators. In fact, many operators who have been
involved in accidents do not even
have a current motorcycle license.
lMake sure that you are qualified
and that you only lend your
motorcycle to other qualified
operators.lKnow your skills and limits.
Staying within your limits may
help you to avoid an accident.lWe recommend that you
practice riding your motorcycle
where there is no traffic until you
have become thoroughly familiar
with the motorcycle and all of its
controls.
l
Many accidents have been caused
by error of the motorcycle operator.
A typical error made by the operator
is veering wide on a turn due to
EXCESSIVE SPEED or
undercornering (insufficient lean
angle for the speed).lAlways obey the speed limit and
never travel faster than warranted
by road and traffic conditions.lAlways signal before turning or
changing lanes. Make sure that
other motorists can see you.
