Is riding my Mini Moto or Mini Chopper
Pit Bike safe? Do something foolish and you'll get hurt.
Ridden under normal conditions however, Mini Moto
& Pit Bikes are as safe as bikes or skateboards.
Be careful around cars and wear a helmet or other safety gear
to minimize the risk of injury.
When riding your Mini Moto or Mini Chopper Petrol
Scooter (as with anything else), there are good techniques and
bad habits. Everyone's riding style is a little bit different,
so while there are many good techniques, you determine what
is best for yourself.
To stop your Mini Moto, Midi Moto and Pit Bike use the hand brake levers on the handle bars, the disk
brakes will stop you in no time.
Mini Moto & Mini Chopper Petrol Scooters are
designed for only one rider; so do not attempt to ride with
more than one person on your Mini Moto, Midi Moto or Pit Bike.
Tips for Riding Mini Motos, Midi Motos and Pit Bikes
Wear a helmet at all times when riding. Before
riding apply and hold the brake, then slowly apply throttle
while releasing the brake.
Do not drive a Mini Moto, Midi Moto or Pit Bike through deep water; the motor will be exposed to moisture.
Before riding your Mini Moto or Midi Moto or Pit Bike for the first time, check all joints, hinges, and quick
releases to make sure that your Mini Moto or di Moto or Pit Bike is assembled properly and securely.
Do not carry any items on your Mini Moto &
Midi Moto or Pit Bike.
Riding your Mini Moto in the dark or in adverse
weather conditions is not recommended. If you choose to do so,
be certain to have the head and tail lights on!
Safety Gear for riding your Mini Moto or Mini Chopper
Helmet: A good helmet is the most important element of your
protective gear. Scrapes and bruises heal, but head wounds
can severely affect you for the rest of your life.
Shoes: Your shoes should be durable
and sturdy but most of all comfortable. Most athletic shoes
are good for Mini Moto or di Moto or Pit Bike riding—just
stay away from sandals and high heels.
Knee Pads: One of the best things invented for the knee pad
was the plastic cap. When it comes to knee pads, anything is
better than nothing.
Gloves: Gloves come in many shapes and sizes, from motorcycle
gloves to gardening mitts. Gloves should protect your hands
and fit well. Use your best judgment here: some gloves are
homely but work well.
Elbow Pads: Like knee pads, elbow
pads ideally have plastic caps, but there are many alternatives
that work just as well.
