A Few Words About Safety
Your safety, and the safety of others, is very
important. Operating this motorcycle safely is
an important responsibility.
To help you make informed decisions about
safety, we have provided operating
procedures and other information on safety
labels and in this manual. This information
alerts you to potential hazards that could
hurt you or others.
Of course, it is not practical or possible to
warn you about all hazards associated with
operating or maintaining a motorcycle. You
must use your own good judgement.
You will find important safety information in a
variety of forms, including:
● Safety labels on the motorcycle
●
Safety Messages preceded by a safety alert
symbol and one of three signal words:
DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.
These signal words mean:
3DANGER
You WILL be KILLED or SERIOUSLY
HURT if you don’t follow instructions.
3WARNING
You CAN be KILLED or SERIOUSLY
HURT if you don’t follow instructions.
3CAUTION
You CAN be HURT if you don’t follow
instructions.
Other important information is
provided under the following titles:
NOTICE
Information to help you avoid
damage to your motorcycle,
other property, or the
environment.

Safety Guidelines
Safety Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to enhance your safety:
● Perform all routine and regular inspections
specified in this manual.
● Stop the engine and keep sparks and flame
away before filling the fuel tank.
● Do not run the engine in enclosed or partly
enclosed areas. Carbon monoxide in
exhaust gases is toxic and can kill you.
Always Wear a Helmet
It's a proven fact: helmets and protective
apparel significantly reduce the number and
severity of head and other injuries. So always
wear an approved motorcycle helmet and
protective apparel. 2 P. 10
Before Riding
Make sure that you are physically fit, mentally
focused and free of alcohol and drugs. Check
that you and your passenger are both wearing
an approved motorcycle helmet and protective
apparel. Instruct your passenger on holding
onto the seat strap or your waist, leaning with
you in turns, and keeping their feet on the
footpegs, even when the motorcycle is stopped.
Take Time to Learn & Practice
Even if you have ridden other motorcycles,
practice riding in a safe area to become familiar
with how this motorcycle works and handles,
and to become accustomed to the motorcycle's
size and weight.
Ride Defensively
Always pay attention to other vehicles around
you, and do not assume that other drivers see
you. Be prepared to stop quickly or perform an
evasive maneuver.

Safety Guidelines
Make Yourself Easy to See
Motorcycle Safety
Make yourself more visible, especially at night,
by wearing bright reflective clothing, positioning
yourself so other drivers can see you, signaling
before turning or changing lanes, and using
your horn when necessary.
Ride within Your Limits
Never ride beyond your personal abilities or
faster than conditions warrant. Fatigue and
inattention can impair your ability to use good
judgement and ride safely.
Don't Drink and Ride
Alcohol and riding don't mix. Even one alcoholic
drink can reduce your ability to respond to
changing conditions, and your reaction time
gets worse with every additional drink. Don't
drink and ride, and don't let your friends drink
and ride either.
4
Keep Your Honda in Safe Condition
It's important to keep your motorcycle properly
maintained and in safe riding condition.
Inspect your motorcycle before every ride and
perform all recommended maintenance. Never
exceed load limits (2 P. 16), and do not modify
your motorcycle or install accessories that
would make your motorcycle unsafe (2 P. 15).
If You are Involved in a Crash
Personal safety is your first priority. If you or
anyone else has been injured, take time to
assess the severity of the injuries and whether it
is safe to continue riding. Call for emergency
assistance if needed. Also follow applicable laws
and regulations if another person or vehicle is
involved in the crash.
20180306130515_32MKJ8001_eng_BOOK Page 8 Tuesday, March 06 2018 13:14:26 JST
Safety Guidelines
If you decide to continue riding, first turn the
ignition switch to the (Off) position, and
evaluate the condition of your motorcycle.
Inspect for fluid leaks, check the tightness of
critical nuts and bolts, and check the handlebar,
control levers, brakes, and wheels. Ride slowly
and cautiously.
Your motorcycle may have suffered damage
that is not immediately apparent. Have your
motorcycle thoroughly checked at a qualified
service facility as soon as possible.
Carbon Monoxide Hazard
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a
colourless, odorless gas. Breathing carbon
monoxide can cause loss of consciousness and
may lead to death.
If you run the engine in confined or even partly
enclosed area, the air you breathe could
contain a dangerous amount of carbon
monoxide.
Never run your motorcycle inside a garage or
other enclosure.
3WARNING
Running the engine of your motorcycle
while in an enclosed or even partially
enclosed area can cause a rapid buildup of toxic carbon monoxide gas.
Breathing this colourless, odorless gas
can quickly cause unconsciousness and
lead to death.
Only run your motorcycle's engine
when it is located in a well ventilated
area outdoors.

Riding Precautions
Riding Precautions
Running-in Period
During the first 500 km (300 miles) of running,
follow these guidelines to ensure your
motorcycle's future reliability and performance.
● Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid
acceleration.
● Avoid hard braking and rapid down-shifts.
● Ride conservatively.
Brakes
Observe the following guidelines:
●
Avoid excessively hard braking and
downshifting.
u Sudden braking can reduce the
motorcycle's stability.
u Where possible, reduce speed before
turning; otherwise you risk sliding out.
● Exercise caution on low traction surfaces.
u The tyres slip more easily on such
surfaces and braking distances are
longer.
● Avoid continuous braking.
u Repeated braking, such as when
descending long, steep slopes can
seriously overheat the brakes, reducing
their effectiveness. Use engine braking
with intermittent use of the brakes to
reduce speed.
● For full braking effectiveness, operate both
the front and rear brakes together.

Riding Precautions
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
#
Motorcycle Safety
This model is equipped with an Anti-lock Brake
System (ABS) designed to help prevent the
brakes from locking up during hard braking.
● ABS does not reduce braking distance. In
certain circumstances, ABS may result in a
longer stopping distance.
● ABS does not function at speeds below 10
km/h (6 mph).
● The brake lever and pedal may recoil slightly
when applying the brakes. This is normal.
● Always use the recommended front/rear
tyres and sprockets to ensure correct ABS
operation.
12
Engine Braking
#
Engine braking helps slow your motorcycle
down when you release the throttle. For further
slowing action, downshift to a lower gear. Use
engine braking with intermittent use of the
brakes to reduce speed when descending long,
steep slopes.
Wet or Rainy Conditions
#
Road surfaces are slippery when wet, and wet
brakes further reduce braking efficiency.
Exercise extra caution when braking in wet
conditions.
If the brakes get wet, apply the brakes while
riding at low speed to help them dry.
20180306130515_32MKJ8001_eng_BOOK Page 16 Tuesday, March 06 2018 13:14:26 JST
3.
Parking
● Park on a firm, level surface.
● If you must park on a slight incline or loose
surface, park so that the motorcycle cannot
move or fall over.
● Make sure that high-temperature parts
cannot come into contact with flammable
materials.
● Do not touch the engine, muffler, brakes
and other high-temperature parts until they
cool down.
● To reduce the likelihood of theft, always lock
the handlebar and remove the key when
leaving the motorcycle unattended.
Use of an anti-theft device is also
recommended.
Parking with the Side Stand
#
1.
Stop the engine.
2.
Push the side stand down.
Slowly lean the motorcycle to the left until its
weight rests on the side stand.
4.
Turn the handlebar fully to the left.
u Turning the handlebar to the right
reduces stability and may cause the
motorcycle to fall.
5.
Turn the ignition switch to the (Lock)
position and remove the key. 2 P. 58
Refuelling and Fuel Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to protect the engine,
fuel system and catalytic converter:
● Use only unleaded petrol.
● Use recommended octane number. Using
lower octane petrol will result in decreased
engine performance.
● Do not use fuels containing a high
concentration of alcohol. 2 P. 162
● Do not use stale or contaminated petrol or
an oil/petrol mixture.
● Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

Riding Precautions
Honda selectable torque control
Motorcycle Safety
When the Honda selectable torque control
(Torque Control) detects rear wheel spin during
acceleration, the system will limit the amount of
torque applied to the rear wheel based on the
Torque Control level selected.
Additionally, the system ease the rapid motion
during the wheelie when accelerating based on
the Torque Control level selected.
Torque Control will allow some wheel spin
during acceleration at the lower Torque Control
levels settings. Select a level that is appropriate
for your skill and riding conditions.
Torque Control does not work during
deceleration and will not prevent the rear wheel
from skidding due to engine braking. Do not
close the throttle suddenly, especially when
riding on slippery surfaces.
14
Torque Control may not compensate for rough
road conditions or rapid throttle operation.
Always consider road and weather conditions,
as well as your skills and condition, when
applying throttle.
If your motorcycle gets stuck in mud, snow or
sand, it may be easier to free it by turning off
the Torque Control temporarily.
Temporarily turning off Torque Control also
may help you maintain control and balance
when riding on off-road terrain.
Always use the recommended tyres and
sprockets to ensure correct Torque Control
operation.
