BASIC SAFETY RULES

To drive the vehicle, you must satisfy

certain legal requirements (driving licence,

minimum age limit, psychophysical fitness,

insurance, vehicle licence tax, vehicle

registration, number plate, etc.).

Begin to familiarise yourself with the

vehicle by riding in low traffic areas and/or

private ground.

Certain prescribed medicines, alcohol,

drugs and psychotropic substances will

affect your riding, thereby increasing the

risk of an accident.

Be sure that you are in good

psychophysical conditions and fit for

driving and pay particular attention to

physical weariness and drowsiness.

Most road accidents are caused by

inexperienced riders.

NEVER lend your vehicle to a beginner

and make sure any person borrowing your

vehicle fills the legal requirements for

driving.

Strictly observe all posted signs and

national and local road regulations.

Avoid any sudden or risky manoeuvres

that may endanger your and other people's

safety (for example: reckless manoeuvres,

speeding, etc.), and adjust your riding style

to road surface conditions, visibility, etc.

Avoid obstacles that could damage the

vehicle or make you lose control of the

vehicle.

WARNING

Always hold the handlebars with both

hands and keep both feet on the

footpegs (or on the rider's footboards),

in the correct riding position.

Do not stand up or stretch your limbs while

riding.

use and maintenance Quasar 50 - 100 - 125 - 180

The driver should pay attention and avoid

distractions caused by people, things and

movements (never smoke, eat, drink, read,

etc.) while driving.

Use only the specified fuels and lubricants

indicated in the "LUBRICANT CHART"

(page58) and check engine oil,

transmission fluid and fuel levels at regular

intervals.

If the vehicle has been involved in an

accident, make sure that no damage has

occurred to the control levers, pipes, wires,

braking system and vital parts.

If necessary, have the vehicle inspected by

an Aprilia Authorised Dealer who should

carefully check the frame, handlebars,

suspensions, safety parts and all the

devices that you cannot check by yourself.

Remember to report any malfunction to the

technicians and/or mechanics to facilitate

their work.

Never use the vehicle when the amount of

damage it has suffered makes it unsafe to

ride.

Never change the position, inclination or

colour of: number plate, turn indicators,

lights and horns.

Any modification of the vehicle will result in

the invalidity of the warranty.

Making any modifications to the vehicle

and/or removing the original components

can adversely affect vehicle performance

and safety or make it illegal to ride.

Observe applicable law and all national

and local regulations concerning vehicle

equipment.

In particular, avoid any modifications apt to

enhance performance or alter the vehicle's

original specifications.

Never race with other vehicles.

ONLY ORIGINALS

CLOTHING

Always wear and fasten your helmet

correctly before moving off. Make sure

your helmet complies with applicable

regulations, is not damaged, is the right

size and keep the visor clean.

Wear protective clothing, preferably bright

and/or reflective clothing. This will ensure

you are easily seen by other road users

and reduce the risk of an accident, besides

affording improved protection in the event

of a fall.

Wear tight-fitting clothing fastened at the

wrists and ankles; make sure no strings,

belts and ties are hanging loose; make

sure no items of clothing or other objects

can distract you or become entangled with

moving parts or with the handlebars.

Do not ride with sharp or pointed objects in

your pockets as they might cause injury in

the event of a fall (this includes keys, pens,

glass vials, etc. - note that the same

applies to your passenger).

Avoid fixing bulky, heavy and/or dangerous

objects to the handlebars, mudguards and

forks - this could slow down the vehicle's

response in turns and would inevitably

affect handling.

Do not place bags that are too bulky or the

crash helmet on the vehicle sides and do

not ride with them on, because they could

hit people or obstacles, making you lose

control of the vehicle.

Do not exceed the maximum load capacity

of each luggage rack.

When the vehicle is overloaded, its stability

and its manoeuvrability can be

compromised.

use and maintenance Quasar 50 - 100 - 125 - 180

Never use the vehicle in water deeper than

10 cm.

After having used the vehicle in salt water,

it is necessary to wash it with fresh water.

Never show off without respecting the

safety features.

Never unbalance the weight of your body

so to avoid that vehicle takes unusual

positions.

The vehicle should always be ridden

following the safety rules indicated in this

manual, at any time (riding uphill, downhill,

turning, etc.) and with any surface

conditions.
