Safe Riding Tips / Guidelines |
14 |
|
zBefore operating your new motorcycle, it is your responsibility to carefully read and follow the operating and maintenance instructions detailed in this manual for your own safety, your motorcycle and that of others.
zKnow and respect the rules of the road. Be a safe rider for your own safety and for other road users.
zBefore starting the motorcycle, check for proper operation of brakes, clutch, gear shifter, handle bar controls, tyre pressures, fuel and oil levels.
zUse only genuine Royal Enfield spare parts and approved accessories. Use of other manufacturer’s performance parts may affect the performance of your motorcycle and render the motorcycle void of warranty. See your Royal Enfield dealer for details.
zWhenever refuelling your motorcycle, please exercise utmost caution and carefully observe the following rules :
9DO NOT smoke and please ensure that there are no open flames or sparks near the motorcycle, when refuelling OR servicing the fuel system.
9Switch OFF mobile phones and other hand held electronic devices.
9Open the fuel filler cap slowly.
9Refuel in a well ventilated area with the engine turned off.
9DO NOT fill the tank to its brim. Please fill fuel only till the bottom of the filler neck insert, so as to leave air space in the fuel tank to allow for fuel expansion.
Warning
Royal Enfield cautions you against the use of certain nonstandard parts such as aftermarket and custom made extended front forks or suspensions, which may adversely affect performance and handling. Removing or altering original parts may adversely affect performance and could result in an accident.
Safe Riding Tips / Guidelines |
15 |
|
zA new motorcycle must be operated according to the special running-in-procedure. See running-in-procedure mentioned in Page No. 32.
zOperate motorcycle only at moderate speeds and out of traffic until you have become thoroughly familiar with its operation and handling characteristics under all conditions.
zDO NOT exceed the legal speed limit or drive too fast for existing conditions. Always reduce speed when poor driving conditions exist. High speed increases the influence of any other condition affecting stability and increases the possibility of loss of control.
NOTE :
If you are an inexperienced rider we recommend that you obtain formal training on correct motorcycle riding techniques and become thoroughly familiar with the operation of your particular motorcycle. New riders should gain experience under various conditions while driving at moderate speeds.
Pay strict attention to road surfaces and wind conditions. Any two wheeled vehicle may be subject to the following upsetting forces :
9Wind blasts from passing trucks.
9Rough uneven road surfaces.
9Slippery road surfaces.
These forces may affect the handling characteristics of your motorcycle. If this happens, reduce speed and guide the motorcycle with a relaxed grip to a controlled condition. Do not brake abruptly or force the handlebar.
zOperate your motorcycle defensively. Remember, a motorcycle does not afford the same protection as an automobile in an accident. One of the most common accident situations occurs when the driver of the other vehicle fails to see or recognize a motorcycle and turns into the oncoming motorcyclist.
Safe Riding Tips / Guidelines |
16 |
|
zWear an approved helmet, clothing, and foot gear suited for riding a motorcycle. Bright OR light colors are best for greater visibility in traffic, especially at night. Avoid loose, flowing garments and scarves.
zWhen carrying a pillion rider, it is your responsibility to instruct them on proper riding procedures.
zDO NOT allow other individuals, under any circumstances, to operate your motorcycle unless you know they are experienced, licensed riders and are thoroughly familiar with the operating conditions of your motorcycle.
Warning
Warning
For your personal welfare, all the listed service and maintenance recommendations should be performed. Lack of regular maintenance at the suggested intervals may affect the safe operation of your motorcycle.
Warning
Avoid any contact with the exhaust system. Wear clothing that will completely cover the legs while riding. The exhaust system gets very hot when the engine is running and remains too hot, even after the engine is turned off. Failure to wear proper or protective clothing could result in serious injury.
Warning
Regularly inspect shock absorbers and front forks and look for leaks. Replace worn parts. Worn parts can adversely affect stability and handling.
Exhaust gases contains poisonous carbon monoxide and chemicals, known to cause Cancer, Birth Defects or other reproductive defects.
Safe Riding Tips / Guidelines |
17 |
|
Warning
Motorcycle batteries contain lead and lead components, acids and chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Exercise extreme caution while handling a battery. Wash hands thoroughly whenever a battery is handled.
Warning
DO NOT tow a disabled motorcycle. The steering and handling of the disabled motorcycle will be impaired due to the force of the towline. If a disabled motorcycle must be transported, use a truck or a trailer. Towing a motorcycle may cause loss of control of the motorcycle in the front, leading to an accident.
Warning
Consult your Royal Enfield Dealer regarding any questions or problems that occur in the operation of your motorcycle. Failure to do so may aggravate an initial problem, cause costly repairs & jeopardize your personal safety.
Warning
DO NOT pull a trailer behind a motorcycle. Towing a trailer may cause reduced braking efficiency, tyre overloading and unstable handling. Towing a trailer may cause loss of control of the motorcycle in the front, leading to an accident.
Safe & Happy Riding |

zA pair of riding boots or shoes.

Rules of the Road |
19 |
|
zBe sure your number plate is installed in the position specified by law and is clearly visible at all times.
zRide at a safe speed that is consistent with the type of road surface you are on. Pay strict attention to whether the surface is :
9Dry
9Oily
9Icy
9Wet
zWatch for loose debris, such as leaves, slippery substances or loose gravel that can hamper the stability of your vehicle.
zDO NOT exceed the legal speed limit or drive too fast for existing conditions. Always reduce speed when poor driving conditions exist. High speed increases the influence of any other condition affecting stability and increases the possibility of loss of control.
zKeep to the correct side of the road center line when meeting oncoming vehicle.
zAlways sound your horn, actuate your turn signals, and exercise caution when passing other vehicles going in the same direction. Never try to pass another vehicle going in the same direction at street intersections, on curves, or when going up/or down a hill.
zAt street intersection give the right-of-way to the vehicle on your left or right. DO NOT presume you have the right-of-way.
zAlways signal when preparing to stop, turn or pass.
zWhile turning either right or left, watch for pedestrians, animals, as well as vehicles.
zAll traffic signs, including manual controls at intersections, should be obeyed promptly. SLOW DOWN at traffic signs near schools and CAUTION signs at railroad crossings.
Rules of the Road |
20 |
|
zWhen intending to turn, signal at least 100 feet (30.5 meters) before reaching the turning. Be close to the center line (unless local rules require otherwise), slow down and then turn carefully.
zNever jump a traffic light. When a
change is imminent from GO to |
Red |
|
STOP (or vice versa) at |
Yellow |
|
intersections, slow down and wait |
||
|
||
for the light to change to green. |
Green |
|
Never run through a yellow or red |
||
|
||
traffic light. |
|
|
|
zDO NOT leave the curb or parking area without signaling. Be sure your way is clear to enter moving traffic. A moving line of traffic always has the right-of-way.
zPark your motorcycle on a firm and flat surface to prevent it from falling over.
zProtect your motorcycle against theft. After parking your motorcycle, remove Ignition key from switch and lock the steering head.
SIDE VIEW MIRRORS
Your motorcycle is equipped with convex mirrors and have a curved surface. This type of mirror is designed to give a much wider view to the rear than a flat mirror; however, cars and other objects seen in this type of mirror will look smaller and farther away than when seen in a flat mirror.
Use care when judging the size or distance of objects seen in these mirrors.
NOTE :
To help you establish the relative distance of vehicles behind your motorcycle, adjust each mirror in such a way, that a small portion of your shoulder is visible and a large portion behind your motorcycle is seen clearly.
