Refer to Safety Precautions on page 19.
The following suggestions may make your ride
both more comfortable and more responsive to
your control input.
Control Positioning
• Position the control levers so that you can use
them comfortably when seated and standing.
• Adjust the control lever mounting bolt torque
of the clutch and brake lever assemblies so
that they can rotate on the handlebar in a fall.
If an assembly does not rotate, it may bend or
break a control lever. Make sure that the
bolts are torqued securely enough to prevent
slippage during normal operation.
Apply Honda Thread Lock or an equivalent to
the threads of these bolts prior to adjustment to
help ensure the correct torque is retained.
Tighten the top bolts first.

As an alternative, consider wrapping the
handlebar area under the control assemblies with
teflon tape. Then tighten the assemblies to their
normal torque. Upon impact, the fully-tightened
assemblies should rotate on the Teflon tape.
• Position the shift lever and brake pedal so that
they are close to your boot for rapid access,
but not so close that either is depressed when
sitting or standing comfortably on your CR.
Handlebar Position, Width & Shape
• Position the handlebar so that both gripping
the bar and operating the controls is
comfortable while both seated and standing,
while riding straight ahead and turning.
Tighten the forward bolts first.
• Handlebar width can be trimmed with a
hacksaw to better suit your particular shoulder
width and riding preference. Think this
through carefully and cut off just a small
amount at a time from both sides equally. It is
obviously much easier to make the handlebar
narrower than it is to add material.
• Chamfer the edges to remove burrs and other
irregularities or roughness after sawing the
handlebar.
• An alternate handlebar shape, through varying
rise or rearward sweep dimensions, will
provide further adjustment to riding position
and may better suit your particular body size
or riding style. Each of the ergonomic
dimensions of the machine were determined
to suit the greatest possible number of riders
based on an average size rider.
