A Few Words About Safety
Your safety, and the safety of others, is very
important. Operating this motorcycle safely is
an important responsibility.
To help you make informed decisions about
safety, we have provided operating
procedures and other information on safety
labels and in this manual. This information
alerts you to potential hazards that could
hurt you or others.
Of course, it is not practical or possible to
warn you about all hazards associated with
operating or maintaining a motorcycle. You
must use your own good judgement.
You will find important safety information in a
variety of forms, including:
●Safety labels on the motorcycle
●
Safety Messages preceded by a safety alert
symbol and one of three signal words:
DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.
These signal words mean:
3DANGER
You WILL be KILLED or SERIOUSLY
HURT if you don’t follow instructions.
3WARNING
You CAN be KILLED or SERIOUSLY
HURT if you don’t follow instructions.
3CAUTION
You CAN be HURT if you don’t follow
instructions.
Other important information is
provided under the following titles:
NOTICE Information to help you avoid
damage to your motorcycle,
other property, or the
environment.

Safety Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to enhance your safety:
●Perform all routine and regular inspections
specified in this manual.
●Stop the engine and keep sparks and flame
away before filling the fuel tank.
●Do not run the engine in enclosed or partly
enclosed areas. Carbon monoxide in
exhaust gases is toxic and can kill you.
Always Wear a Helmet
It's a proven fact: helmets and protective
apparel significantly reduce the number and
severity of head and other injuries. So always
wear an approved motorcycle helmet and
protective apparel. P. 82
Before Riding
Make sure that you are physically fit, mentally
focused and free of alcohol and drugs. Check
that you and your passenger are both wearing
an approved motorcycle helmet and protective
apparel. Instruct your passenger on holding
onto the grab rails or your waist, leaning with
you in turns, and keeping their feet on the
footpegs, even when the motorcycle is stopped.
Take Time to Learn & Practice
Even if you have ridden other motorcycles,
practice riding in a safe area to become familiar
with how this motorcycle works and handles,
and to become accustomed to the motorcycle's
size and weight.
Ride Defensively
Always pay attention to other vehicles around
you, and do not assume that other drivers see
you. Be prepared to stop quickly or perform an
evasive maneuver.
Safety Guidelines

Make Yourself Easy to See
Make yourself more visible, especially at night,
by wearing bright reflective clothing, positioning
yourself so other drivers can see you, signaling
before turning or changing lanes, and using
your horn when necessary.
Ride within Your Limits
Never ride beyond your personal abilities or
faster than conditions warrant. Fatigue and
inattention can impair your ability to use good
judgement and ride safely.
Don't Drink and Ride
Alcohol and riding don't mix. Even one alcoholic
drink can reduce your ability to respond to
changing conditions, and your reaction time
gets worse with every additional drink. Don't
drink and ride, and don't let your friends drink
and ride either.
Keep Your Honda in Safe Condition
It's important to keep your motorcycle properly
maintained and in safe riding condition.
Inspect your motorcycle before every ride and
perform all recommended maintenance. Never
exceed load limits ( P. 13), and do not modify2
your motorcycle or install accessories that
would make your motorcycle unsafe ( P. 12).2
If You are Involved in a Crash
Personal safety is your first priority. If you or
anyone else has been injured, take time to
assess the severity of the injuries and whether it
is safe to continue riding. Call for emergency
assistance if needed. Also follow applicable laws
and regulations if another person or vehicle is
involved in the crash.
Safety Guidelines
Motorcycle Safety

If you decide to continue riding, first turn the
ignition switch to the (Off) position, and
evaluate the condition of your motorcycle.
Inspect for fluid leaks, check the tightness of
critical nuts and bolts, and check the handlebar,
control levers, brakes, and wheels. Ride slowly
and cautiously.
Your motorcycle may have suffered damage
that is not immediately apparent. Have your
motorcycle thoroughly checked at a qualified
service facility as soon as possible.
Carbon Monoxide Hazard
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a
colourless, odorless gas. Breathing carbon
monoxide can cause loss of consciousness and
may lead to death.
If you run the engine in confined or even partly
enclosed area, the air you breathe could
contain a dangerous amount of carbon
monoxide.
Never run your motorcycle inside a garage or
other enclosure.
3WARNING
Running the engine of your motorcycle
while in an enclosed or even partially
enclosed area can cause a rapid build-
up of toxic carbon monoxide gas.
Breathing this colourless, odorless gas
can quickly cause unconsciousness and
lead to death.
Only run your motorcycle's engine
when it is located in a well ventilated
area outdoors.

Importance of Maintenance
Importance of Maintenance
Keeping your motorcycle well-maintained is
absolutely essential to your safety and to
protect your investment, obtain maximum
performance, avoid breakdowns, and reduce air
pollution. Maintenance is the owner's
responsibility. Be sure to inspect your
motorcycle before each ride, and perform the
periodic checks specified in the Maintenance
Schedule. P. 582
3WARNING
Improperly maintaining your
motorcycle or failing to correct a
problem before you ride can cause a
crash in which you can be seriously hurt
or killed.
Always follow the inspection and
maintenance recommendations and
schedules in this owner's manual.
Maintenance Safety
Always read the maintenance instructions
before you begin each task, and make sure that
you have the tools, parts, and skills required.
We cannot warn you of every conceivable
hazard that can arise in performing
maintenance. Only you can decide whether or
not you should perform a given task.
Follow these guidelines when performing
maintenance.
●Stop the engine and remove the key.
●Place your motorcycle on a firm, level
surface using the side stand or a
maintenance stand to provide support.
●Allow the engine, muffler, brakes, and other
high-temperature parts to cool before
servicing as you can get burned.
●Run the engine only when instructed, and
do so in a well-ventilated area.

Maintenance Fundamentals
Pre-ride Inspection
To ensure safety, it is your responsibility to
perform a pre-ride inspection and make sure
that any problem you find is corrected. A pre-
ride inspection is a must, not only for safety, but
because having a breakdown, or even a flat
tyre, can be a major inconvenience.
Check the following items before you get on
your motorcycle:
●Fuel level - Fill fuel tank when necessary.
2P. 53
●Throttle - Check for smooth opening and
full closing in all steering positions. P. 942
●Engine oil level - Add engine oil if necessary.
Check for leaks. P. 772
●Coolant level - Add coolant if required.
Check for leaks. P. 812
●Drive chain - Check condition and slack,
adjust and lubricate if necessary. P. 872
●Brakes - Check operation;
Front and Rear: check brake fluid level and
pads wear. P. 83, P. 842 2
●Lights and horn - Check that lights,
indicators and horn function properly.
●Engine stop switch - Check for proper
function. P. 462
●Clutch - Check operation;
Adjust freeplay if necessary. P. 912
●Side stand ignition cut-off system - Check
for proper function. P. 862
●Wheels and tyres - Check condition, air
pressure and adjust if necessary. P. 692

Cleaning the Battery Terminals
1.
Remove the battery. P. 742
2.
If the terminals are starting to corrode and
are coated with a white substance, wash
with warm water and wipe clean.
3.
If the terminals are heavily corroded, clean
and polish the terminals with a wire brush or
sandpaper. Wear safety glasses.
4.
After cleaning, reinstall the battery.
The battery has a limited life span. Consult your
dealer about when you should replace the
battery. Always replace the battery with another
maintenance-free battery of the same type.
NOTICE
Installing non-Honda electrical accessories can
overload the electrical system, discharging the
battery and possibly damaging the system.
Maintenance Fundamentals
Maintenance
64

Also inspect the drive sprocket and driven sprocket. If
either has worn or damaged teeth, have the sprocket
replaced by your dealer.
NOTICE
Use of a new chain with worn sprockets will cause
rapid chain wear.
#
Cleaning and Lubricating
After inspecting the slack, clean the chain and
sprockets while rotating the rear wheel. Use a dry
cloth with chain cleaner designed specifically for
O-ring chains, or neutral detergent. Use a soft
brush if the chain is dirty.
After cleaning, wipe dry and lubricate with the
recommended lubricant.
Recommended lubricant:
Drive chain lubricant designed
specifically for O-ring chains
If not available, use SAE 80 or 90 gear oil.
Do not use a steam cleaner, a high pressure
cleaner, a wire brush, volatile solvent such as
petrol and benzene, abrasive cleaner, chain
cleaner or lubricant NOT designed specifically
for O-ring chains as these can damage the
rubber O-ring seals.

pressure gauge to measure the air pressure at
least once a month or any time you think the
tyres look low. Always check air pressure when
your tyres are cold.
#
Inspecting for Damage
Inspect the tyres for
cuts, slits, or cracks that
exposes fabric or
cords, or nails or other
foreign objects
embedded in the side
of the tyre or the tread.
Also inspect for any unusual bumps or bulges in
the side walls of the tyres.

Brakes
Checking Brake Fluid
1.
Place your motorcycle in an upright
position on a firm, level surface.
2.
Front
Check that the brake fluid reservoir
is horizontal and that the fluid level is
above the LWR mark.
Rear
Check that the brake fluid reservoir
is horizontal and that the fluid level is
between the LOWER level and UPPER
level marks.
If the brake fluid level in either reservoir is
below the LWR mark or LOWER level mark or
the brake lever and pedal freeplay becomes
excessive, inspect the brake pads for wear.
If the brake pads are not worn, you most
likely have a leak. Have your motorcycle
inspected by your dealer.
