(2) RIDING METHOD
yThe safety of two-wheel vehicles is influenced by
sitting position. The rider should sit on the central
part of the seat cushion. If the rider sits on the
rear part of the seat, the load of front wheel will
decrease. As a result, the handlebar will swing
and cause danger to the rider.

to steer the motorcycle by leaning the body inward
slightly. The motorcycle will lose its balance if the
rider fails to keep his body leaning inward.
yWhen riding on a damaged or macadam road.
Slow down the speed and hold the handlebar
tightly.

motorcycle properly.

with overload.
