Safety GuidelinesFollow 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 inexhaust gases is toxic and can kill you.

Always Wear a HelmetIt's a proven fact: helmets and protectiveapparel significantly reduce the number andseverity of head and other injuries. So alwayswear an approved helmet and protectiveapparel. 2 P. 13

Before RidingMake sure that you are physically fit, mentallyfocused and free of alcohol and drugs. Checkthat you and your passenger are both wearingan approved helmet and protective apparel.Instruct your passenger on holding onto theseat strap or your waist, leaning with you inturns, and keeping their feet on the footpegs,even when the vehicle is stopped.

Take Time to Learn & PracticeEven if you have ridden other vehicles, practiceriding in a safe area to become familiar withhow this vehicle works and handles, and tobecome accustomed to the vehicle's size andweight.

Ride DefensivelyAlways pay attention to other vehicles aroundyou, and do not assume that other drivers seeyou. Be prepared to stop quickly or perform anevasive maneuver.

Make Yourself Easy to SeeMake yourself more visible, especially at night,by wearing bright reflective clothing, positioningyourself so other drivers can see you, signalingbefore turning or changing lanes, and usingyour horn when necessary.

Ride within Your LimitsNever ride beyond your personal abilities orfaster than conditions warrant. Fatigue andinattention can impair your ability to use goodjudgement and ride safely.

Don't Drink and RideAlcohol and riding don't mix. Even one alcoholicdrink can reduce your ability to respond tochanging conditions, and your reaction timegets worse with every additional drink. Don'tdrink and ride, and don't let your friends drinkand ride either.

Keep Your Honda in Safe ConditionIt's important to keep your vehicle properlymaintained and in safe riding condition.Inspect your vehicle before every ride andperform all recommended maintenance. Neverexceed load limits (2 P. 21), and do not modifyyour vehicle or install accessories that wouldmake your vehicle unsafe (2 P. 20).

Riding PrecautionsRunning-in Period

During the first 500 km (300 miles) of running,follow these guidelines to ensure your vehicle'sfuture reliability and performance.● Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid

acceleration.● Avoid hard braking and rapid down-shifts.● Ride conservatively.

BrakesObserve the following guidelines:● Avoid excessively hard braking and

downshifting.u Sudden braking can reduce the vehicle's

stability.u Where possible, reduce speed before

turning; otherwise you risk sliding out.

● Exercise caution on low traction surfaces.u The tyres slip more easily on such

surfaces and braking distances arelonger.

● Avoid continuous braking.u Repeated braking, such as when

descending long, steep slopes canseriously overheat the brakes, reducingtheir effectiveness. Use engine brakingwith intermittent use of the brakes toreduce speed.

● For full braking effectiveness, operate boththe front and rear brakes together.


Riding PrecautionsVehicle Safety

15Continued

# Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)This model is equipped with an Anti-lock BrakeSystem (ABS) designed to help prevent thebrakes from locking up during hard braking.The ABS functions with information provided bythe IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit).● ABS does not reduce braking distance. In

certain circumstances, ABS may result in alonger stopping distance.

● ABS does not function at speeds below6 km/h (4 mph).

● The brake lever and pedal may recoil slightlywhen applying the brakes. This is normal.

● Always use the recommended front/reartyres and sprockets to ensure correct ABSoperation.

# Engine BrakingEngine braking helps slow your vehicle downwhen you release the throttle. For furtherslowing action, downshift to a lower gear. Useengine braking with intermittent use of thebrakes to reduce speed when descending long,steep slopes.

# Wet or Rainy ConditionsRoad surfaces are slippery when wet, and wetbrakes further reduce braking efficiency.Exercise extra caution when braking in wetconditions.If the brakes get wet, apply the brakes whileriding at low speed to help them dry.


Riding Precautions

Vehicle Safety

Parking● Park on a firm, level surface.● If you must park on a slight incline or loose

surface, park so that the vehicle cannotmove or fall over.

● Make sure that high-temperature partscannot come into contact with flammablematerials.

● Do not touch the engine, muffler, brakesand other high-temperature parts until theycool down.

● To reduce the likelihood of theft, always lockthe handlebars (2 P. 102), and leave yourvehicle while taking the Honda SMART Keywith you.Deactivate the Honda SMART Key system ifnecessary. 2 P. 105Use of an anti-theft device is alsorecommended.

# Parking with the Side Stand1. Stop the engine.2. Push the side stand down.3. Slowly lean the vehicle to the left until its

weight rests on the side stand.4. Turn the handlebars fully to the left.

u Turning the handlebars to the rightreduces stability and may cause thevehicle to fall.

5. Lock the steering. 2 P. 102Then, leave your vehicle while taking theHonda SMART Key with you. Deactivate theHonda SMART Key system if necessary.2 P. 105



17Continued

Refuelling and Fuel GuidelinesFollow these guidelines to protect the engine,fuel system and catalytic converter:● Use only unleaded petrol.● Use recommended octane number. Using

lower octane petrol will result in decreasedengine performance.

● Do not use fuels containing a highconcentration of alcohol. 2 P. 238

● Do not use stale or contaminated petrol oran oil/petrol mixture.

● Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

Honda selectable torque controlWhen the Honda selectable torque control(Torque Control) detects rear wheel spin duringacceleration, the system will limit the amount oftorque applied to the rear wheel based on theTorque Control level selected.Additionally, the system ease the rapid motionduring accelerating based on the WheelieControl level selected.

Torque Control will allow some wheel spinduring acceleration at the lower Torque Controllevels settings. Select a level that is appropriatefor your skill and riding conditions.

Torque Control does not work duringdeceleration and will not prevent the rear wheelfrom skidding due to engine braking. Do notclose the throttle suddenly, especially whenriding on slippery surfaces.

Torque Control may not compensate for roughroad conditions or rapid throttle operation.Always consider road and weather conditions,as well as your skills and condition, whenapplying throttle.If your vehicle gets stuck in mud, snow or sand,it may be easier to free it by turning off theTorque Control temporarily.Temporarily turning off Torque Control alsomay help you maintain control and balancewhen riding on off-road terrain.

Always use the recommended tyres andsprockets to ensure correct Torque Controloperation.

Engine OilEngine oil consumption varies and oil qualitydeteriorates according to riding conditions andtime elapsed.Check the engine oil level regularly, and add therecommended engine oil if necessary. Dirty oil orold oil should be changed as soon as possible.

# Selecting the Engine OilFor recommended engine oil, see“Specifications.” 2 P. 241

If you use non-Honda engine oil, check thelabel to make sure that the oil satisfies all of thefollowing standards:● JASO T 903 standard*1: MA● SAE standard*2: 10W-30● API classification*3: SG or higher

*1. The JASO T 903 standard is an index for engineoils for 4-stroke motorcycle engines. There aretwo classes: MA and MB. For example, thefollowing label shows the MA classification.

*2. The SAE standard grades oils by their viscosity.*3. The API classification specifies the quality and

performance rating of engine oils. Use SG orhigher oils, excluding oils marked as “EnergyConserving” or “Resource Conserving” on thecircular API service symbol.

Brake FluidDo not add or replace brake fluid, except in anemergency. Use only fresh brake fluid from asealed container. If you do add fluid, have thebrake system serviced by your dealer as soon aspossible.

NOTICEBrake fluid can damage plastic and painted surfaces.Wipe up spills immediately and wash thoroughly.

Recommended brake fluid:Honda DOT 4 Brake Fluid or equivalent

Drive ChainThe drive chain must be inspected andlubricated regularly. Inspect the chain morefrequently if you often ride on bad roads, ride athigh speed, or ride with repeated fastacceleration. 2 P. 168

Tyres (Inspecting/Replacing)# Checking the Air PressureVisually inspect your tyres and use an airpressure gauge to measure the air pressure atleast once a month or any time you think thetyres look low. Always check air pressure whenyour tyres are cold.Even if the direction of the valve stem ischanged, do not return it to the originalposition. Have your vehicle inspected by yourdealer.

# Inspecting for DamageInspect the tyres forcuts, slits, or cracks thatexposes fabric orcords, or nails or otherforeign objectsembedded in the sideof the tyre or the tread.

Also inspect for any unusual bumps or bulges inthe side walls of the tyres.# Inspecting for Abnormal Wear

3. Thoroughly rinse your vehicle with plenty ofclean water and dry with a soft, clean cloth.

4. After the vehicle dries, lubricate any movingparts.u Make sure that no lubricant spills onto

the brakes or tyres. Brake discs, pads,drum or shoes contaminated with oil willsuffer greatly reduced brakingeffectiveness and can lead to a crash.

5. Lubricate the drive chain immediately afterwashing and drying the vehicle.

6. Apply a coat of wax to prevent corrosion.u Avoid products that contain harsh

detergents or chemical solvents. Thesecan damage the metal, paint, and plasticon your vehicle.Keep the wax clear of the tyres andbrakes.

u If your vehicle has any mat painted parts,do not apply a coat of wax to the matpainted surface.

# Washing PrecautionsFollow these guidelines when washing:● Do not use high-pressure washers:

u High-pressure water cleaners candamage moving parts and electricalparts, rendering them inoperable.

u Water in the air intake can be drawn intothe throttle body and/or enter the aircleaner.

● Do not direct water at the muffler:u Water in the muffler can prevent starting

and causes rust in the muffler.● Dry the brakes:

u Water adversely affects brakingeffectiveness. After washing, apply thebrakes intermittently at low speed tohelp dry them.

● Do not direct water under the seat:u Water in the under seat compartment

can damage your documents and otherbelongings.
