cohol or other drugs.

o -road use.
Protective Apparel
The majority of fatalities from motorcycle
accidents are the result of head injuries.
The use of a safety helmet is the single
most critical factor in the prevention or
reduction of head injuries.
• Always wear an approved hel-
met.
• Wear a face shield or goggles.
Wind in your unprotected eyes
could contribute to an impair-
ment of vision that could delay
seeing a hazard.
• The use of a jacket, heavy bo-
ots, trousers, gloves, etc., is
e ective in preventing or redu-
cing abrasions or lacerations.
• Never
wear
loose- tting
clothes, otherwise they could
catch on the control levers, fo-
otrests, or wheels and cause
injury or an accident.
• Always
wear
clothing that covers your legs,
ankles, and feet. The engine or
exhaust system become very
hot during or after operation
and can cause burns.
• A passenger should also obser-
ve the above precautions.
Avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
All engine exhaust contains carbon mo-
noxide, a deadly gas. Breathing carbon
monoxide can cause headaches, dizzi-
ness, drowsiness, nausea, confusion, and
eventually death. Carbon Monoxide is a
colorless, odorless, tasteless gas which
may be present even if you do not see or
smell any engine exhaust. Deadly levels of
carbon monoxide can collect rapidly and
you can quickly be overcome and unable
to save yourself.
Also, deadly levels of carbon monoxide
can linger for hours or days in enclosed or
poorly ventilated areas. If you experience
1 - 2
any symptoms of carbon monoxide poi-
soning, leave the area immediately, get
fresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREATMENT.
• Do not run engine indoors.
Even if you try to ventilate en-
gine exhaust with fans or open
windows and doors, carbon
monoxide can rapidly reach
dangerous levels.
• Do not run engine in poorly
protective
ventilated or partially enclosed
areas such as barns, garages, or
carports.
• Do not run engine outdoors
where engine exhaust can be
drawn into a building through
openings such as windows and
doors.

torcycle can adversely a ect stability and
