Aer the rider understands the controls and is comfortable with them, it’s me for the rst
ride. For this, the rider must be dressed correctly in suitable safety gear. Boots, gloves, a
helmet and eye protecon are necessary.
The venue must be at, open and safe, with no obstacles of any kind. The machine must be
set up correctly, with the speed set to its lower seng and the throle response set to its
lowest.
1. Ensure the power is turned o.
2. While an adult supports the bike, the rider can get on.
3. The rider now can reach back with their le foot, and put the side-stand to the up
posion. Have an adult ready to hold the bike up for this!
4. Encourage the rider to rock the machine from side to side and forward and back, in
order to get comfortable with the weight of the bike.
5. The rider can now switch the machine on.
6. Before turning the throle, the rider’s legs can be splayed forward and out like
outriggers.
7. The rider can now twist the throle (as slowly as possible) and go. Encourage them
to go and stop, go and stop… using the brakes to stop. Have a supporve hand on
the rear fender whenever possible.
8. Once comfortable, the rider can try to ride along and li their feet onto the pegs as
they go.
9. When stopped, turn the power o.
Always start on the slowest sengs. Only allow competent riders with full instrucon to ride
the bike. Do not allow inexperienced riders on the bike before they have demonstrated a
complete knowledge of the controls.
CAUTION
If the rider drops the bike, ensure that the lanyard is removed from the bike and it is turned
OFF before liing the bike. It is good pracce to turn the power o whenever there is no
rider on the bike.
