YOUR

SAFETY:

Both

motorcycles

and

mopeds

are

fascinating

vehicles

which

give

tremendous

feeling

freedom

their

riders.

They

must

correctly

maintained

all

times

order

ensure

optimum

performance.

However,

rider

you

must

also

ensure

that

your

physical

condition

good,

and

that

you

are

not

tired,

order

that

you

too

can

optimize

your

vehicle

control.

Medicines,

drugs

and

alcohol

should

not

combined

with

riding,

especially

alcohol,

which

in¬

creases

the

individual's

likelihood

taking

risks.

Alcohol

dangerous,

even

small

quantities.

Correct

protective

riding

gear

just

much

part

motorcycling

safety

the

safety

belt

the

car;

good

leather

suit

and

gloves,

sturdy

boots

and

good

quality,

properly

fitting

crash

helmet

are

ideal.

But

beware:

good

protective

clothing

can

result

the

individual

being

lulled

into

false

sense

security.

When

this

happens

risks

are

taken

and

speeds

increase...

this

particularly

applies

wet

weather.

The

good

motorcyclist

therefore

rides

defensively

and

protectively

order

minimize

risks.
