you to carefully read and follow the operating and
maintenance instructions detailed in this manual for
the safety of your own, your motorcycle and also that
of others.
Know and adhere to the rules of the road with respect
to your driving country.
Before starting the motorcycle, check for proper oper-
ation of brakes, clutch, gear shifter, handle bar con-
trols, tyre pressures, fuel and oil levels, etc.
Use only genuine Royal Enfield spare parts and
approved accessories. Use of other manufacturer’s
parts may affect the performance of your motorcycle
and render the motorcycle void of warranty. Visit your

SAFE RIDING TIPS / GUIDELINES
WARNING
Royal Enfield cautions you against the use of certain non-
standard parts such as aftermarket and custom made
extended front forks or suspensions, which may adversely
affect performance and handling. Removing or altering
original parts may adversely affect performance and could
result in accident.
A new motorcycle must be operated according to the
special running-in-procedure. See running-in-proce-
dure mentioned in respective section.
Operate motorcycle only at moderate speeds and out
of traffic until you have become thoroughly familiar
with its operation and handling characteristics under
all conditions.
Do not exceed the legal speed limit or ride too fast for
existing conditions. Always reduce speed when poor
riding conditions exist. High speed increases the influ-
ence of any other condition affecting stability and
increases the possibility of loss of control.
NOTE
If you are an inexperienced rider we recommend that you
obtain formal training on correct motorcycle riding tech-
niques and become thoroughly familiar with the operation
of your motorcycle. New riders should gain experience
under various conditions while driving at moderate speeds.
Pay strict attention to road surfaces and wind conditions.
Any motorcycle may be subject to the following up-setting
forces:
Wind blasts from passing vehicles.
Rough or uneven road surfaces.

SAFE RIDING TIPS / GUIDELINES
Slippery road surfaces.
These forces may affect the handling characteristics of your
motorcycle. If this happens, reduce speed of the motorcy-
cle to a controlled condition. Do not apply brake abruptly.
Operate your motorcycle defensively. Remember that
a motorcycle does not afford the same protection as an
automobile in an accident. One of the most common
accident situations occurs when the rider / driver of
the other motorcycle / vehicle fails to see or recognise
a motorcycle and turns into the oncoming motorcy-
clist.
Wear an approved helmet, clothing and footwear
suited for riding a motorcycle. Bright / light colours are
best for greater visibility in traffic, especially at night.
Avoid loose, flowing garments and scarves.
When carrying a pillion rider, it is your responsibility
instruct them on proper riding procedures.
Do not allow other individuals, under any circum-
stances, to operate your motorcycle unless you know
they are experienced, licensed riders and are thor-
oughly familiar with the operating conditions of your
motorcycle.
WARNING
Regularly inspect shock absorbers and front forks and
look for leaks. Replace worn out parts. Worn out parts
can adversely affect stability and handling.
Exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide and
chemicals, known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive defects, durability / longevity oper-
ation of your motorcycle.
For your personal welfare, all the listed service and
maintenance recommendations should be performed.
Lack of regular maintenance at the suggested intervals
may affect the safe/durability/longevity operation of
your motorcycle.
