User manual 5
Both your safety and the safety of others are very important when
riding a motorcycle.
Some important advice for using your motorcycle correctly is de-
tailed below.
- Always drive in a responsible way.
- Always use a helmet.
- Never drive over the speed limit.
- Do not ride with passengers.
- This motorcycle is designed to be used in both urban and rural
areas. It should be used, however, while respecting other people
and the environment. If, in your geographical area, the use of
motorcycles in rural areas is restricted, you must respect the law.
- Always wear appropriate clothing and protective accessories.
Gloves, boots and thick trousers, among others, are recommen-
dable. Do not wear baggy clothing that might get caught on a
mechanism in the motorcycle.
- Be careful with the exhaust system! The exhaust system gets
extremely hot during and after use of the motorcycle. In the event
of suffering burns, see a doctor as soon as possible.
- Take the time necessary to become familiar with your new mo-
torcycle.
- Never drive if you have consumed alcohol or any type of subs-
tance (medication, drugs) that might affect your driving capability.
- Make sure your motorcycle is serviced regularly to avoid break-
downs while driving.
- Do not clean the motorcycle with pressurized-water equipment,
since this may damage the parts.
- Do not use your motorcycle for transporting or towing loads. In
the event of needing to carry loads, always use the box under the
seat. This load may be light-weight and small in volume so that
driving is not affected. Ensure that there are no loose leashes or
other elements that might get caught inside a mechanism. Never
apply additional weight to the handlebars, fork or mudguards. Be
specially careful when transporting any type of load.
