Always wear a helmet. Most motorcycle accident fatalities are due to head injuries.
For safety eye protection, gloves, and high top, sturdy boots should also be worn.
The exhaust system becomes very hot during operation, never touch the exhaust system. Wear clothing that fully covers your legs. Do not wear loose clothing which could catch on the control levers, footrests, wheels, or chain.
Any amount of alcohol will significantly interfere with your ability to safely operate your motorcycle. Don’t drink and ride.
