Your first journey
Safe motorcycling doesn't
depend on the motorcycle
alone.
Your own skill and common-
sense are needed too.
The key to genuine safety on
the road is a sensible balance
between the motorcycle's tech-
nical features and the rider's
skill, so that together they form
a single efficient unit. Riding
safely in traffic calls for a sense
of responsibility to your pillion
passenger and to other road
users.
d Warning:
Do not ride the motorcycle
after drinking alcoholic
beverages. Even small
amounts of alcohol or drugs,
particularly if taken in con-
junction with medicines, will
adversely affect your percep-
tion and your ability to assess
situations and make deci-
sions, and also slow down
your reflexes.
Take to the road now by all
means, but think carefully about
everything you do.
