USING ALCOHOL OR DRUGS
Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while operating your bike. Operating this bike
after consuming alcohol or drugs could adversely affect operator judgment, reaction time,
balance and perception.
FAILURE TO INSPECT BEFORE OPERATING
Failure to inspect and verify that the bike is in safe operating condition before operating
increases the risk of an accident. Always perform the Safety checklists outlined in the
Maintenance chapter before each use of your REACH to make sure it's in safe operating
condition. Always follow the inspection and maintenance procedures and schedules
described in this owner’s manual. See the Recommended Service Intervals chapter.
RECHARGING
• Always turn off the ignition and remove your battery before recharging.
• Always exercise caution when unplugging electrical components and be sure to pull
from the connector itself and not the wires.
OPERATING WITH A LOAD
Always follow these guidelines:
UNDER ANY OF THESE CONDITIONS:
Operating in rough terrain
1. Slow down.
2. Verify tire pressure.
3. Use extra caution when operating.
Operating a damaged REACH can result in an accident. After any accident, have a qualified
service dealer inspect the entire machine for possible damage, including (but not limited
to) bushings, brakes, throttle, steering systems, and general bolt check.
OPERATING AT EXCESSIVE SPEEDS
Operating the REACH at excessive speeds increases the operator's risk of losing control.
Always operate at a speed that's appropriate for the terrain, the visibility and operating
conditions and your skills and experience.
