What is the danger

This machine is extremely dangerous to operate and is likely to cause injury to the rider and to any other persons in the vicinity of the machine. - The fuel tank is vented under and just in front of the rider of the machine, causing a situation whereby the rider will inhale petrol fumes. This is also compounded by the fact that there is a potential fire hazard if the rider of anyone nearby is smoking near the tank cap during the venting process. - The drive chain and sprocket were not sufficiently guarded. - Frontal chain guard that is fitted is insufficient and also has sharp edges. - The handle bar levers were insecure, incomplete and were not ball ended. - The exhaust was insufficiently shielded at the front. - There was no re-set on the engine stop. - There was no speed-limiting device present. - A user manual provided with the mini motor bike is intended for other model.
