Catalytic Converter
This motorcycle is equipped with a three-way
catalytic converter. The catalytic converter
contains precious metals that serve as
catalysts in high temperature chemical
reactions that
convert hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide
(CO), and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in the
exhaust gasses into safe compounds.
A defective catalytic converter contributes to
air pollution and can impair your engine’s
performance. A replacement unit must be an
original Honda part or equivalent.
Follow these guidelines to protect your
motorcycle’s catalytic converter.
●
Always use unleaded petrol. Leaded petrol will
damage the catalytic converter.
●
Keep the engine in good running condition.
●
Have your motorcycle serviced if your engine
is misfiring, backfiring, stalling, or otherwise
not running properly, stop riding and turn off
the engine.
