Safe Riding Gear
Always wear clothing suited to the type of riding. Operating this
vehicle requires wearing special protective clothing for comfort and
to reduce the chance of injury:
1. A helmet is the most important piece of protective gear for
safe riding. An approved helmet can prevent a severe head
injury.
2. Eye protection. A pair of goggles or a helmet face shield
offers the best protection for your eyes. They should be
kept clean and be a shatterproof design. Do not depend on
sunglasses for proper eye protection.
3. Off-road style gloves with knuckle pads are the best for
comfort and protection.
4. The best footwear is a pair of strong over-the-calf boots
with heels, like moto-cross boots.
5. Always wear long pants and long sleeve shirts to protect
arms and legs. Riding pants and a jersey that have
kneepads and shoulder pads provide the best protection.
