I just saw this mentioned over at the All Girls Scooter Rally forum: The Motorcycle Safety Foundation “You and Your Scooter” riding tips book is available for download from the MSF site. Modeled after its highly recommended “You and Your Motorcycle” booklet, “You and Your Scooter” has 70 pages that discusses safety equipment, checking your scooter before you ride, night riding, braking in a curve, how to deal with tailgaters, dealing with sudden mechanical failures, riding with passengers, riding in a group - you name it, it’s in there. While not a replacement for an actual MSF course, it’s a definite must-read. There’s even a scooter skills test practice guide. Even scooter veterans should give it at least a once-over (why not? it’s free!).

Download it from this page at the MSF web site, or download the PDF file directly by clicking here.
