If you won’t be riding for an extended period,
such as during the winter, thoroughly inspect
your Honda and correct any problem before
storing it. That way, needed repairs won’t be
forgotten and it will be easier to get your
CR running again.
To reduce or prevent deterioration that can occur
during storage, also follow the following
procedures.
Preparation for Storage
1. Completely clean all parts of your CR. If
your CR has been exposed to sea air or salt
water, wash it down with fresh water and
wipe dry.
2. Drain the fuel tank and carburetor into an
approved gasoline container.
Turn the fuel valve OFF and remove the
carburetor drain bolt. Drain gasoline into an
approved container. Reinstall the drain bolt.
3. Remove the coolant drain bolts (1) from the
cylinder (2) and water pump (3) to drain
coolant.
After the coolant has been completely
drained, ensure that the drain bolt sealing
washers are in good condition and reinstall the
drain bolts.

4. Lubricate the drive chain.
5. Remove the spark plug and pour a tablespoon
(0.51 - 0.68 US oz; 15 - 20 cm
3
) of clean
engine oil into the cylinder. With the spark
plug grounded or the engine stop button
pressed in, operate the kickstarter several
times to distribute the oil, then reinstall the
spark plug.
When turning the engine over, the engine stop
button should be pressed in, and the spark plug
placed in its cable cap and grounded to prevent
damage to the ignition system.
6. Inflate the tires to their recommended
pressures.
7. Place your CR on the optional workstand or
equivalent to raise both tires off the ground.
8. Stuff a rag into the silencer outlet. Then tie a
plastic bag over the end of the muffler to
prevent moisture from entering.
9. Store your CR in an unheated area, free of
dampness, away from sunlight, with a
minimum of daily temperature variation.
10.Cover your CR with a porous material. Avoid
using plastic or similar non-breathing, coated
materials that restrict air flow and allow heat
and moisture to accumulate.
Removal from Storage
1. Uncover and clean your CR.
Change the transmission oil if more than 4
months have passed since the start of storage.
2. Uncover the end of the muffler and remove
the rag from the muffler outlet.
3. Fill the fuel tank with pre-mixed fuel
(page 34).
4. Pour a fresh recommended coolant mixture
(page 38) slowly into the radiator filler hole
up to the filler neck.

0.45 US qt (0.43
x

0.45 US qt (0.43
x
)
at draining
Lean your CR slightly right and left several
times to bleed trapped air in the cooling
system.
If the coolant level lowers, add coolant and
repeat the above procedure.
Install the radiator cap securely.
5. Perform all maintenance checks (page 9).
