WARNING
!!

There is much that you can do to protect
yourself when you ride. You will find many
helpful recommendations through out this
manual. Following are a few that we consider
most important.
Make sure that you are physically fit, mentally
focused and free of alcohol and drugs. Check
that you and your pillion are both wearing an
approved vehicle helmet and protective
apparel. Instruct your pillion on holding onto
the grab rail or your waist, leaning with you in
turns, and keeping their feet on the footrest,
even when the vehicle is stopped.
Important safety information
Your vehicle can provide many years of
service and pleasure if you take responsibility
for your own safety and understand the
challenges you can meet on the road.
Always wear a helmet
Even if you have ridden other vehicles,
practice riding in a safe area to become
familiar with how this vehicle works and
handles, and to become accustomed to the
vehicle's size and weight.
VEHICLE SAFETY
It is a proven fact, Helmet significantly reduces
the number and severity of head injuries. So
always wear a helmet and make sure your pillion
rider does the same. We also recommend that
you wear eye protection, sturdy boots, gloves
and other protective gear.
Before riding your vehicle
Take time to learn & practice your vehicle
Some drivers do not see vehicles because they
are not looking for them. To make yourself more
visible, wear bright reflective clothing, position
yourself so that others can see you, signal before
turning or changing lanes, and use horn which
will help others to notice you.
Keep your vehicle in safe condition
Make yourself easily visible
Do not drink and ride
For safe riding, its important to inspect your
vehicle before every ride and perform all
recommended maintenance. Never exceed
load limits, and only use accessories that have
been approved by HMCL Niloy Bangladesh
Ltd. for this vehicle.
Ride within your limits
Ride defensively
Pushing the limits is another major cause of
vehicle accidents. Never ride beyond your
personal abilities or faster than conditions
demand. Remember that fatigue and
negligence can significantly reduce your ability
to make good judgements and ride safely.
Always pay due attention to other vehicles
around you, and do not assume that other
drivers see you. Be prepared to stop quickly or
perform an evasive maneuver.
Riding under the influence of alcohol or drugs
is dangerous. Alcohol can reduce your ability
to respond to changing conditions and reduce
the reaction time. Do not drink and ride.

Helmets and eye protection
Additional riding gear
Your Helmet is your most important piece of
riding gear because it offers the best
protection against head injuries. A helmet
should fit your head comfortably and securely.
A bright coloured helmet can make you more
noticeable in traffic, as can reflective strips.
An open-face helmet offers some protection,
but a full-face helmet offers more. Always
were face shield or goggles to protect your
eyes and help your vision.
In addition to a helmet and eye protection, we
also recommend:
•Sturdy boots with non-slip soles to help
protect your feet and ankles.
•A two wheeler riding suit or jacket for
comfort as well as protection. Bright
coloured reflective clothing can help make
you more noticeable in traffic. Be sure to
avoid loose clothes that could get caught on
any part of your vehicle.
•Leather gloves to keep your hands warm
and help prevent blisters, cuts, burns, and
bruises.
If you are involved in a crash
Personal safety is your first priority. If you or
anyone else has been injured, take time to
assess the severity of the injuries and whether
it is safe to continue riding. Call for emergency
assistance if needed. Also follow applicable
laws and regulations if another person or
vehicle is involved in the crash.
