Maintenance Schedule
Servicing Your Honda
To maintain the safety and reliability of your
motorcycle, regular inspection and service is
required as shown in the Maintenance Schedule
that follows. Because your motorcycle does not have an
odometer, service intervals in the maintenance
schedules are expressed in terms of riding days
as well as miles. To avoid overlooking required
service, we urge you to develop a convenient
way to record the number of days and/or miles
you ride.
The Maintenance Schedule lists items that can
be performed with basic mechanical skills and
hand tools. Procedures for these items are
provided in this manual.
The Maintenance Schedule also includes items
that involve more extensive procedures and
may require special training, tools, and
equipment. Therefore, we recommend that you
have your Honda dealer perform these tasks
unless you have advanced mechanical skills
and the required tools. Procedures for items in
this schedule are provided in a service manual
available for purchase from your dealer
(page
).
If you do not feel capable of performing a
given task or need assistance, remember that
your Honda dealer knows your motorcycle best
and is fully equipped to maintain and repair it.
If you decide to do your own maintenance, use
only genuine Honda parts or their equivalents
for repair or replacement to ensure the best
quality and reliability.
