Pre-ride Inspection
Is Your ATV Ready to Ride?
Before Riding
Engine Oil
Before each ride, it’s important to inspect your ATV and make sure any
problem you find is corrected. A pre-ride inspection is a must, not only
for safety, but because having a breakdown, or even a flat tire, can be a
major inconvenience.
If your ATV has overturned or been involved in a collision, do not ride
the vehicle until it has been inspected by your Honda dealer. There may
be damage or other problems you cannot see.
Check the following items before you get on the ATV:
Check the level and add oil if needed (page
).
Check for leaks.
