WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and
explosive. You can be burned or
seriously injured when handling fuel.
• Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks
and flame away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
5. Remove the radiator cap and coolant drain
bolts (1) at the water pump (2) 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 bolt and radiator cap.
10.Inflate the tires to their recommended
pressures.
11.Place your CRF on the optional Honda work-
stand or equivalent to raise both tires off the
ground.
12.Stuff a rag into the muffler outlet. Then tie a
plastic bag over the end of the muffler to
prevent moisture from entering.
13.Store your motorcycle in an unheated area,
free of dampness, away from sunlight, with a
minimum of daily temperature variation.
14.Cover your motorcycle with a porous
material. Avoid using plastic or similar non-
breathing, coated materials that restrict air
flow and allow heat and moisture to
accumulate.

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
motorcycle 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 CRF. If
your CRF has been exposed to sea air or salt
water, wash it down with fresh water and
wipe dry.
2. Change the engine oil and filter (page 44).
3. Change the transmission oil (page 47).
4. Drain the fuel tank and carburetor into an
approved gasoline container.

carburetor drain bolt. Drain gasoline into an
approved container. Reinstall the drain bolt.
