SAFE RIDING RECOMMENDATION FOR MOTORCYCLE RIDERS
Motorcycle riding is great fun and an exciting sport. Motorcycle riding also requires that some extra precautions
be taken to ensure the safety of the rider and passenger. These precautions are:
Wear a helmet
Motorcycle safety equipment starts with a quality helmet. One of the most serious injuries that can happen
is a head injury. Always wear a properly approved helmet. You should also wear suitable eye protection.
Riding apparel
Loose, fancy clothes can be uncomfortable and unsafe when riding your motorcycle. Choose good quality
motorcycle riding apparel when riding your motorcycle.
Inspection before riding
Review thoroughly the instructions in “Inspection Before Riding” section of this manual. Do not forget to
perform an entire safety inspection to ensure the safety of the rider and its passenger.
Familiarize yourself with the motorcycle
Your riding skill and your mechanical knowledge form the foundation for safe riding practices. We suggest
that you practice riding your motorcycle in a non-traffic situation until you are thoroughly familiar with your
machine and its controls. Remember practice makes perfect.
Know your limits
Ride within the boundaries of your own skills at all times. Knowing these limits and staying within them will
8
help you to avoid accidents.
Be extra safety conscious on bad weather days
Riding on bad weather days, especially wet ones, requires extra caution. Braking distances double on a
rainy day. Stay off the painted surfaces marks, manhole covers and greasy appearing areas as they can be
especially slippery. Use extreme caution at railway crossing and on metal gratings and bridges. Whenever in
doubt about road condition, slow down!
Ride defensively
The most common type of motorcycle accident occurs when a car travelling towards a motorcycle turns
round corner in front of the motorcyclist. Ride defensively. Wise motorcyclist uses a strategy of assuming he
is invisible to the other drivers, even in broad day light.
Riding clothing
Wear bright, reflecting clothing. Turn on the headlight and taillight every time even on a bright, sunny day
to attract driver’s attention. Do not ride in another driver’s blind spot. We suggest to wear strong boots
designed for motorcycle riding equipped with anti-slip sole and ankle protection, leather suites or jackets
with safety protection, leather gloves to avoid blisters, cuts and burns.
Do not drink and drive
Alcoholic drinks are not indicated for riding. Even a single glass can affect reactivity and riding skills and
situation gets worst with increasing alcoholics assumption. Do not drink and drive and do not let your
friends do this.
