After removing your motorcycle from storage, 
inspect all maintenance items required by the 
Maintenance Schedule.

 For more information about storage, 

refer to the Honda Winter Storage Guide, 
available from your dealer.

 For more information about storage, 

visit our website at www.honda.ca and look up 
“Storage Tips” under the Parts & Service tab.

Transporting Your 
Motorcycle

If your motorcycle needs to be transported, it 
should be carried on a motorcycle trailer or a 
flatbed truck or trailer that has a loading ramp 
or lifting platform, and motorcycle tie-down 
straps. Never try to tow your motorcycle with a 
wheel or wheels on the ground.

You & the Environment

Owning and riding a motorcycle can be 
enjoyable, but you must do your part to protect 
the environment.

NOTICE

Towing your motorcycle can cause serious damage to the 
transmission.
