Safety & Protective Gear

Important safety information

Your safety is very important. Your motorcycle can provide many years of service and pleasure, if you take responsibility for your own safety and understand the challenges while riding. There is much you can do to protect yourself when you ride.

Please read through the following instructions before riding your bike the first time.

• Be sure you read this owner's manual completely and understand all operating features.
• Take sufficient time training with safe and proper riding technique.
• Practice until you are knowledgeable and comfortable with your motorcycle, and knowledgeable with all road signs.
• Failure to follow any safety instructions could cause severe injury or even death to the motorcycle operator, passenger or bystander.

Before riding each time, make sure of the following:

Wear protective gear

Wearing appropriate protective wear can prevent or reduce injuries from accidents.

• Helmet - The majority of serious motorcycle injuries and deaths are the direct result of a head injury. Drivers and passengers should always wear a helmet to prevent or reduce the chance of head injury.
• Eye and Face Protection - A plastic face shield can help prevent accidents by guarding the face and eyes from debris, allowing the rider to devote full attention 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.

Caution

• Failure to wear a helmet will significantly increase the likelihood of injury or death if an accident occurs.
• Make sure passengers always wear a helmet to protect eyes, and wear protective clothing.
