Allows you to easily reach the controls.

Keeps your arms straight when reaching the handle grips.

When riding, you should be seated in a posture that allows you to use your arms to steer rather than to hold yourself up. You should not have to stretch to reach the handgrips and your arms should be slightly bent when holding them. You should keep your knees against the gas tank to maintain your balance.

3. When riding over rough surfaces, you should:

Hold the handgrips loosely to allow for movement.

Hold the handgrips firmly to maintain control.

Use lots of throttle to help you get over the rough surface.

Ride without a helmet as the helmet could become loose and cover your face.

When riding over a rough surface, hold onto the handgrips firmly to ensure that you will maintain directional control over your motorcycle.

Keep your eyes focused close to the front of the motorcycle.

Look through the turn to where you want to go.

Turn your entire body to see through the turn.

Increase your speed before the turn.

Less noticeable than a car’s brake lights.

Less important than a car’s brake lights.

Feel like it is lagging behind.

Feel like it is accelerating faster than the motorcycle.

Vibrate uncontrollably.

Make acceleration seem faster.
