GIVE SAFETY THE RIGHT OF WAY

Motorcycles are fascinating vehicles, which can give you an unsurpassed feeling of power and freedom. However, they also impose certain limits, which you must accept; even the best motorcycle does not ignore the laws of physics.
Regular care and maintenance are essential for preserving value and operating condition of your motorcycle. Moreover, what is true for the motorcycle is also true for the rider: good performance depends on being in good shape. Riding under the influence of medication, drugs and alcohol is, of course, out of the question. Motorcycle ridersmore than car driversmust always be at their mental and physical best. Under the influence of even small amounts of alcohol, there is a tendency to take dangerous risks.
Protective clothing is as essential for the motorcycle rider as seat belts are for car drivers and passengers. Always wear a complete motorcycle suit (whether made of leather or tear-resistant synthetic materials with protectors), sturdy boots, motorcycle gloves and a properly fitting helmet. Optimum protective wear, however, should not encourage carelessness. Although full-coverage helmets and suits, in particular, create an illusion of total safety and protection, motorcyclists will always be vulnerable. Riders who lack critical self-control run the risk of going too fast and are apt to take chances. This is even more dangerous in wet weather. The good motorcyclist rides safely, predictably and defensivelyavoiding all dangers, including those caused by others.
Enjoy your ride!

PRE-OPERATION CHECKS

The condition of a vehicle is the owners responsibility. Vital components can start to deteriorate quickly and unexpectedly, even if the vehicle remains unused (for example, as a result of exposure to the elements). Any damage, fluid leakage or loss of tire air pressure could have serious consequences. Therefore, it is very important, in addition to a thorough visual inspec­tion, to check the following points before each ride.

Become thoroughly familiar
with all operating controls and their functions before riding. Consult a Yamaha dealer re­garding any control or function that you do not thoroughly un­derstand. Never start the engine or oper-
ate it in a closed area for any length of time. Exhaust fumes are poisonous, and inhaling them can cause loss of con­sciousness and death within a short time. Always make sure that there is adequate ventila­tion. For safety, always start the en-
gine with the centerstand. Before starting out, make sure
that the sidestand is up. If the sidestand is not raised com­pletely, it could contact the ground and distract the opera­tor, resulting in a possible loss of control.
