VEHICLE SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Yo
ur vehicle ca
n provide many years
of service and pleasure if you take
responsibility for your own safety and
understand the challenges that you can
meet on the road.
There is much that you can do to protect
yourself when you ride. You’ll find many
helpful recommendations throughout this
manual. Following a few that we consider
most important.
Always Wear a Helmet
It’s a proven fact: helmets significantly
reduce the number and severity of head
injuries. So always wear an approved
helmet and make sure your pillion rider
does the same. We also recommend that
you wear eye protection, sturdy boots,
gloves, and other protective ge
ar (page 4 ).
Make Yourself Easy to be Visible
Some riders do not se
e vehicles b
ecause
they are not looking for them. To make
yourself more visible, wear bright reflective
clothing, position yourself so other riders
can see you, signal before turning or
changing lanes, and use your horn when it
will help others notice you.
Ride Within Your Limits
Pushing the limits is another major cause of
vehicle accidents
. Never ride beyond your
personal abilities or faster than conditions
warrant. Remember that alcohol, drugs,
fatigue and inattention can significantly
reduce your ability to make good
judgements and ride safely.
Keep Your Vehicle in Safe Condition
For safe riding, it’s important to inspect
your
vehicle
before every ride and perform
all recommended maintenance. Never
exceed load limits, and only use accessories
that have been approved by Honda for this
vehic
le. See page 6 for more details.
