Vehicle Safety

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. 12

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 thegrab rail or your waist, leaning with you in turns,and keeping their feet on the footpegs, evenwhen 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.


Safety GuidelinesVehicle Safety

3Continued

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.

Be Alert for Off-road HazardsThe terrain can be present a variety ofchallenges when you ride off-road.Continually “read” the terrain for unexpectedturns, drop-offs, rocks, ruts and other hazards.Always keep your speed low enough to allowtime to see and react to hazards.

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.Having a breakdown can be difficult, especiallyif you are stranded off-road far from your base.Inspect your vehicle before every ride andperform all recommended maintenance. Neverexceed load limits (2 P. 19), and do not modifyyour vehicle or install accessories that wouldmake your vehicle unsafe (2 P. 17).

# Jacket and TrousersProtective, highly visible, long-sleeved jacketand durable trousers for riding (or a protectivesuit)

# Additional Off-road GearOn-road apparel may also be suitable for casualoff-road riding. But if you plan on any seriousoff-road riding you will need more serious off-road gear. In addition to your helmet and eyeprotection, we recommend off-road motorcycleboots and gloves, riding pants with knee andhip pads, a jersey with elbow pads, and a chest/shoulder protector.

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.


Riding PrecautionsVehicle Safety

13Continued

● 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.

# 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 (Inertia Measurement Unit).● ABS does not reduce braking distance. In

certain circumstances, ABS may result in alonger stopping distance.

● ABS does not function at speeds below 10km/h (6 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

14

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 handlebar and remove the key whenleaving the vehicle unattended.Use 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 handlebar fully to the left.u Turning the handlebar to the right

reduces stability and may cause thevehicle to fall.

5. Turn the ignition switch to the (Lock)position and remove the key. 2 P. 121

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. 353

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

● Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.


Riding PrecautionsVehicle Safety

15Continued

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 the wheelie when accelerating based onthe Torque Control 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.
