If You Crash
Taking Care of the Unexpected
Transporting Your Motorcycle,
Personal safety is your first priority after
any accident. 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 accident.
If you decide you are capable of riding
safely, carefully inspect your motorcycle
for damage and determine if it is safe to
ride. Check the tightness of critical nuts
and bolts securing such parts as the
handlebar, control levers, brakes, and
wheels.
If there is minor damage, or you are
unsure about possible damage, ride slowly
and cautiously. Sometimes, crash damage
is hidden or not immediately apparent, so
you should have your motorcycle
thoroughly checked at a qualified service
facility as soon as possible. Also, be sure
to have your Honda dealer check the
frame and suspension after any serious
crash.
