Yamaha Banshee 350 Manuel Du Propriétaire page 200

Select a large, flat, unpaved area to become
familiar with your ATV. Make sure that this area
is free of obstacles and other riders. You should
practice control of the throttle, brakes, shifting
procedures, and turning techniques in this area
before trying more difficult terrain. Always avoid
riding on paved surfaces: the ATV is designed
for use on unpaved surfaces only, and handling
maneuvers are more difficult to perform on
pavement.
Set the parking brake and follow the instruction
on page 6-3 to start the engine. Once it has
warmed up you are ready to begin riding your
ATV. As you get on the ATV, be sure not to
accidentally move the shift pedal. Remember
that the engine and exhaust pipe will be hot
when riding and afterwards; do not allow skin or
clothing to come in contact with these compo-
nents.
