Continued 3 20171201204147_32K0AB000_eng_BOOK Page 7 Friday, December 01 2017 20:48:25 JST Safety Guidelines Ride Defensively Motorcycle Safety 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. 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. 4 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 (2 P. 11), and do not modify your motorcycle or install accessories that would make your motorcycle unsafe (2 P. 10). 20171201204147_32K0AB000_eng_BOOK Page 8 Friday, December 01 2017 20:48:25 JST Safety Guidelines If You are Involved in a Crash If you decide to continue riding, first turn the (Off) position, and ignition switch to the 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. Motorcycle Safety 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. 3WARNING Running the engine of your motorcycle while in an enclosed or even partially enclosed area can cause a rapid buildup 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. 5 20171201204147_32K0AB000_eng_BOOK Page 9 Friday, December 01 2017 20:48:25 JST Safety Precautions Motorcycle Safety Safety Precautions Ride cautiously and keep your hands on the handlebar and feet on the footpegs. ● Keep passenger's hands onto the seat strap or your waist, passenger's feet on the footpegs while riding. ● Always consider the safety of your passenger, as well as other drivers and riders. Face shield with unobstructed field of vision or other approved eye protection 3WARNING ● Protective Apparel Make sure that you and any passenger are wearing an approved motorcycle helmet, eye protection, and high-visibility protective clothing. Ride defensively in response to weather and road conditions. # Helmet Safety-standard certified, high-visibility, correct size for your head ● Must fit comfortably but securely, with the chin strap fastened. 6 ● Not wearing a helmet increases the chance of serious injury or death in a crash. Make sure that you and any passenger always wear an approved helmet and protective apparel. # Gloves Full-finger leather gloves with high abrasion resistance # Boots or Riding Shoes Sturdy boots with non-slip soles and ankle protection # Jacket and Trousers Protective, highly visible, long-sleeved jacket and durable trousers for riding (or a protective suit) 20171201204147_32K0AB000_eng_BOOK Page 10 Friday, December 01 2017 20:48:25 JST Riding Precautions Running-in Period During the first 500 km (300 miles) of running, follow these guidelines to ensure your motorcycle's future reliability and performance. ● Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid acceleration. ● Avoid hard braking and rapid down-shifts. ● Ride conservatively. Brakes Exercise caution on low traction surfaces. u The tyres slip more easily on such surfaces and braking distances are longer. ● Avoid continuous braking. u Repeated braking, such as when descending long, steep slopes can seriously overheat the brakes, reducing their effectiveness. Use engine braking with intermittent use of the brakes to reduce speed. ● For full braking effectiveness, operate both the front and rear brakes together. ● Motorcycle Safety Riding Precautions Observe the following guidelines: ● Avoid excessively hard braking and downshifting. u Sudden braking can reduce the motorcycle's stability. u Where possible, reduce speed before turning; otherwise you risk sliding out. Continued 7 20171201204147_32K0AB000_eng_BOOK Page 11 Friday, December 01 2017 20:48:25 JST Riding Precautions # Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) Motorcycle Safety 8 This model is equipped with an Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) designed to help prevent the brakes from locking up during hard braking. The ABS functions with information provided by the IMU (Inertia Measurement Unit). ● ABS does not reduce braking distance. In certain circumstances, ABS may result in a longer stopping distance. ● ABS does not function at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph). ● The brake lever and pedal may recoil slightly when applying the brakes. This is normal. ● Always use the recommended front/rear tyres and sprockets to ensure correct ABS operation. # Engine Braking Engine braking helps slow your motorcycle down when you release the throttle. For further slowing action, downshift to a lower gear. Use engine braking with intermittent use of the brakes to reduce speed when descending long, steep slopes. # Wet or Rainy Conditions Road surfaces are slippery when wet, and wet brakes further reduce braking efficiency. Exercise extra caution when braking in wet conditions. If the brakes get wet, apply the brakes while riding at low speed to help them dry. 20171201204147_32K0AB000_eng_BOOK Page 12 Friday, December 01 2017 20:48:25 JST Riding Precautions Parking # Parking with the Side Stand 1.

A clean motorcycle makes it easier to spot potential problems. In particular, seawater and salts used to prevent ice on roads promote the formation of corrosion. Always wash your motorcycle thoroughly after riding on coastal or treated roads. Washing Allow the engine, muffler, brakes, and other high-temperature parts to cool before washing. 1. Rinse your motorcycle thoroughly using a low pressure garden hose to remove loose dirt. 2. If necessary, use a sponge or a soft towel with mild cleaner to remove road grime. u Clean the headlight lens, panels, and other plastic components with extra care to avoid scratching them. Avoid directing water into the air cleaner, muffler, and electrical parts. 3. Thoroughly rinse your motorcycle with plenty of clean water and dry with a soft, clean cloth. 4. After the motorcycle dries, lubricate any moving parts. u Make sure that no lubricant spills onto the brakes or tyres. Brake discs, pads, drum or shoes contaminated with oil will suffer greatly reduced braking effectiveness and can lead to a crash. 5. Lubricate the drive chain immediately after washing and drying the motorcycle. 6. Apply a coat of wax to prevent corrosion. u Avoid products that contain harsh detergents or chemical solvents. These can damage the metal, paint, and plastic on your motorcycle. Keep the wax clear of the tyres and brakes. u If your motorcycle has any mat painted parts, do not apply a coat of wax to the mat painted surface. 20171201204147_32K0AB000_eng_BOOK Page 118 Friday, December 01 2017 20:48:25 JST Caring for Your Motorcycle # Washing Precautions Do not direct water at the air cleaner: u Water in the air cleaner can prevent the engine from starting. ● Do not direct water near the headlight: u The headlight's inside lens may fog temporarily after washing or while riding in the rain. This does not impact the headlight function. However, if you see a large amount of water or ice accumulated inside the lens(es), have your vehicle inspected by your dealer. ● Do not use wax or polishing compounds on mat painted surface: u Use a soft cloth or sponge, plenty of water, and a mild detergent to clean mat painted surfaces.
