motorcycle operator, passenger or bystander.
Before riding each time, make sure of the
following:
Riding a motorcycle leaves the rider exposed.
Therefore, wearing appropriate protective gear
can prevent or diminish injuries from accidents.
•Helmet – The majority of serious

to the road. Goggles or glasses can
protect the eyes in the same manner.
• Clothing – Bright clothing should be
worn by the driver so as to be seen easily
by other motorists. Avoid loose clothing
that could catch on the levers, chain or
wheels which could result in an accident.
Gloves give you a better grip and help
protect your hands from the elements.
• Keep enough distance with the other
vehicles around you as this gives you time
to react.
• Always observe the rules of the road.
Observe the posted speed limit, and
signal your turns well in advance.
• Know your limits. Do not go faster than
you are able to control. Always travel at
a speed that is proper for the operating
conditions, your ability and experience.
• Always inspect your motorcycle each
time you use it to make sure it is in safe
operating condition.
• Always follow the inspection and
scheduled maintenance procedures
Before getting on your bike, make sure:
• You have not consumed alcohol or taken
drugs.
• You are in good physical and mental
condition.
• You have done the recommended pre ride
inspection.
• Start the engine in a well-ventilated area.
The exhaust emits toxic and poisonous
carbon monoxide.

described in this manual.
• Test your brakes after operating in wet
conditions.
• Never attempt wheelies, jumps and other
stunts, as these could cause damage to
the motorcycle and cause loss of control.
• Always keep both hands on the handlebar
and feet on the foot pegs during
operation.
• Never consume alcohol or drugs before
or while riding your motorcycle.
• Limit the travel distance to avoid fatigue
that can affect performance and
awareness.
• Do not touch the engine or exhaust after
riding as they will be extremely hot right
after the engine has been turned off.
• Park the motorcycle away from fuel or
flammable materials.
Many motorcycle accidents are caused by car
drivers who do not see motorcycle riders on
the road. Therefore you need to follow these
guidelines:
• Wear bright clothing to increase visibility.
Bright orange, yellow or green jackets or
vests and a brightly colored helmet can
help others see you.
• Always use turn signals when you are
planning to turn or merge to main roads,
and turn it off after you have made your
turn.
• Flash brake lights whenever you are
going to slow down quickly or where
others may not expect you are going to
slow down.
• Stay out of blind spots of other motorists.
• When you come to an intersection, move
