Important Safety Information

A motorcycle can provide many years of service and pleasure, provided you take responsibility for
safety, properly maintain your motorcycle and understand the challenges you may encounter
while riding.

This motorcycle has been designed for younger riders. However, not all youngsters meet the
physical and emotional levels that are needed for riding. Before parents allow any children to ride
this motorcycle, we strongly recommend that they read this entire manual so that they are fully
informed before deciding if their children are ready to ride. Listed below are some of the most
important safety measures one should take when riding.

The following statement isaproven fact: ``Helmets
significantly reduce the number and severity of head injuries.” Never ride your motorcycle without
a helmet. Evenacrash at slow speed can result in a fatal head injury if you are not wearing a
helmet. Monster Motors recommends wearing helmets that have been certified for safety by helmet
testing organizations whom are independent from the

helmet manufacturer. We also recommend
that you wear eye protection, boots, gloves, and other protective gear such as off-road riding
pants.

r This motorcycle has been designed for ONE rider only.
There are no passenger pegs, footrests, handles or seat room for a passenger. Riding with a
passenger can interfere with your ability to operate and/or control the motorcycle and may result
in serious injury or death.

This motorcycle has been designed and manufactured for off­road use only. The motorcycle is not equipped with lights, turn signals, horn and other features
required to drive a motorcycle on public roads. The tires are not designed for pavement and will
make the motorcycle unstable if it is ridden on pavement. If you have to crossapaved road,
dismount and walk the motorcycle across the road.

Never attempt to ride your motorcycle in a manner that is

beyond your skill level. It takes time to learn off-road

riding skills. Learn to ride your motorcycle
step by step. Start by practicing on safe terrain at slow speeds and gradually build your skill level.
Instruction from an experienced rider(s) is highly recommended. Remember that alcohol, drug
use, fatigue and ignorance can reduce your ability to make good decisions and ride safely.

The terrain in which you ride can present many hazards.
Always “scan” the terrain ahead of you continually. Watch for un-expected turns, drop-offs,
ditches, rocks and other hazards. Always maintain a speed slow enough to allow you enough time
to see and react to hazards.

Even one drink can impair your ability to rideamotorcycle
safely. Each drink afterward will make the impairment worse. Do not drink and ride. Do not let
your friend’s drink and ride. Remember, in most states throughout the United States, you can be
arrested and charged with Driving Under the Influence (DUI) if you are riding a motorcycle while
intoxicated. This applies to off-road motorcycles as well.

prevent accidents by making informed decisions about if, when and how your child will ride.

Before you allow your child to ride, you need to decide if he/she is capable of riding. Riding
readiness can vary tremendously from one person to another. Age and size are not be the only
factors that help determine one’s riding readiness. There are three other factors that you should

also consider before deciding if your child is ready to ride.

get on, and sit comfortably with both feet on the ground. The rider must also be able to reach all of
the controls on the handlebars and work the brakes and clutch. Second, consider your child’s

proper hand and foot actions. Any person who does not have good coordination, balance, and
agility should not ride this motorcycle.

Finally, determine your child’s level of It is imperative that you are honest
with yourself when you ask yourself the following questions: Does your child think through
problems and come to logical conclusions? Does your child obey your rules when they ride their
bicycle? If your child makes bad judgements, takes un-warranted risks and/or does not obey your
rules, they should not ride this motorcycle.

If you have decided that your child is ready to ride, please remember the following points and
never let your child ride without a helmet. It is up to you (parent) to ensure your child’s safety,
even if they learn to ride from another experienced adult. Never push your child to try things
faster than

regularly remind them about safety rules. Asaparent it is your responsibility to be sure that the
motorcycle is properly maintained and kept in safe operating condition.

amount of force that you use when pulling the front brake
lever will determine how much braking power is applied.
To release the front brake, release the front brake lever.

The throttle controls the speed of the engine or RPM
(revolutions per minute). To raise the RPM of the engine,
twist the throttle grip toward you. To reduce the engine
RPM, twist the throttle grip away from you. The throttle is
spring loaded and will return to the closed position (engine
idle) when you remove your hand.

The shift lever is used to select the next higher or lower
gear in the transmission. To shift gears, raise the shift
lever with your

Before Riding

Are you Ready to Ride?

-

-

Before you ride your motorcycle for the first time, we strongly recommend the following:

1. Completely read this manual.

2. Be sure you have read and understand all of the safety messages and labels.

3. You know how to operate all of the motorcycle’s controls.

Before each ride, we also strongly recommend that you:

1. Are in good physical and mental condition.

2. Are free of alcohol and other drugs.

3. Are wearing an approved motorcycle helmet with a tight chin strap, eye protection and other
protective clothing.

Protective Gear&Apparel

Before Riding 10

Before you ride, you must be absolutely sure that you and your motorcycle are ready to ride. To
help you get prepared, this section of the manual will discuss how to evaluate your riding readiness
and how to preform our recommended pre-ride inspection of your motorcycle. If you are a parent,
please be sure you have read the section Important Message to Parents on page 4.

For your safety, we strongly recommend that you always wear an approved helmet, eye
protection, boots, gloves, long pants and a long sleeved jersey , shirt or jacket whenever you ride.
Although complete protection is not possible, wearing the proper gear can reduce the chance of
and severity of injuries when you ride.

Not wearingahelmet increases the chance of serious injury or death in a crash. Be

sure you always wear your helmet and other protective apparel when you ride.

Helmets and Eye Protection - Your helmet is your most important piece of riding gear because
i

t offers the best protection against head injuries. A good helmet will be approved by a testing
organization independent of the helmet manufacturer and will have a chin strap that can be
tightened securely. Open-face helmets offer some protection, but a full-face helmet offers the

most protection. When purchasing a helmet, regardless of style, look for a DOT (Department Of
Transportation) sticker (USA only). If the helmet has been tested by an independent organization
such as the Snell Institute, you will usually find their logo onatag inside the padding of the helmet

Additional Riding Gear - In addition to your helmet and eye protection, we alsorecommend:

1. Sturdy off-road motorcycle boots to help protect your feet, ankles and lower legs.

2. Off-Road motorcycle gloves to protect your hands.
3 Riding pants with knee and hip pads, a riding jersey with elbow pads andachest/shoulder

protector.
