PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST
WARNING
Perform a pre-ride inspection be-
fore each ride to detect potential
problems during operation. The
pre-ride inspection can help you
monitor wear and deterioration
before they become a problem.
Correct any problems that you dis-
cover to reduce the risk of a break-
down or crash. See an authorized
Can-Am roadster dealer as neces-
sary.

on the Safety Card.
