Important Safety Information
ATV Safety
Ride within Your Limits
Keep Your Honda in Safe Condition
Don’t Drink and Ride
Pushing limits is another major cause of ATV 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 judgments and ride safely.
Alcohol and riding don’t mix. Even one drink can reduce your ability to
respond to changing conditions, and your reaction time gets worse with
every additional drink. So don’t drink and ride, and don’t let your
friends drink and ride either.
It’s important to keep your ATV properly maintained and in safe riding
condition. Having a breakdown can be difficult, especially if you are
stranded off-road far from your base. To help avoid problems, inspect
your ATV before every ride and perform all recommended maintenance.
