Riding
DANGER
Never ride the motorcycle when
fatigued or under the influence of
alcohol or other drugs.
Riding when under the influence of
alcohol or other drugs is illegal.
Riding when fatigued or under the
influence of alcohol or other drugs
reduces the rider's ability to maintain
control, leading to loss of motorcycle
control which will result in serious
injury or death.
WARNING
All riders must be licenced to operate
the motorcycle.
Operation of the motorcycle without a
licence is illegal and could lead to
prosecution.
Operation of the motorcycle without
formal training in the correct riding
techniques that are necessary to
become licenced is dangerous.
Failure to follow the advice above may
lead to loss of motorcycle control
which could result in serious injury or
death.
WARNING
Always ride defensively and wear the
protective equipment mentioned
elsewhere in this Safety First section.
Remember, in an accident, a
motorcycle does not give the same
impact protection as a car.
Failure to follow the advice above
could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
This motorcycle should be operated
within the legal speed limits for the
particular road travelled.
Riding a motorcycle at high speeds
can be dangerous since the time
available to react to a hazard is
greatly reduced at high speeds.
Always reduce speed in potentially
hazardous driving conditions such as
bad weather or heavy traffic.
Failure to follow the advice above may
lead to loss of motorcycle control
which could result in serious injury or
death.
