Introduction
Congratulations on choosing your Honda ATV.
When you own a Honda, you’re part of a worldwide family of satisfied
customerspeople who appreciate Honda’s reputation for building
quality into every product.
Your Honda was designed as a recreational ATV for off-road use by
one rider only.
Before riding, take time to get acquainted with your ATV and how it
works. To protect your investment, we urge you to take responsibility
for keeping your ATV well maintained. Scheduled service is a must, of
course. But it’s just as important to observe the break-in guidelines, and
perform all pre-ride and other periodic checks detailed in this manual.
We also recommend that you read this owner’s manual before you ride.
It’s full of facts, instructions, safety information, and helpful tips. To
make it easy to use, the manual contains a detailed list of topics at the
beginning of each section, and both an in-depth table of contents and an
index at the back of the book.

As you read this manual, you will find information that is preceded by a
symbol. This information is intended to help you avoid damage
to your Honda, other property, or the environment.
Whenever you ride, tread lightly. By staying on established trails and
riding only in approved areas, you help protect the environment and
keep off-road riding areas open for the future.

this ATV safely is an important responsibility.
To help you make informed decisions about safety, we have provided

ATV Safety
This section presents some of the most important information and
recommendations to help you ride your ATV safely. Please take a few
moments to read these pages. This section also includes information
about the location of safety labels on your ATV.
Your ATV can provide many years of service and pleasure if you take
responsibility for your own safety and understand the challenges you
can meet while riding.
There is much that you can do to protect yourself when you ride. You’ll
find many helpful recommendations throughout this manual. The
following are a few that we consider to be most important.
Follow the Age Recommendation
The minimum recommended age for this ATV model is 16. Children
under age 16 should never operate this vehicle.
Always Wear a Helmet
It’s a proven fact: helmets significantly reduce the number and severity
of head injuries. So always wear an approved motorcycle helmet. We
also recommend that you wear eye protection, sturdy boots, gloves, and
other protective gear (page).44
Never Carry a Passenger
Your ATV is designed for one person only. There are no handholds,
footrests, or seat for a second person, so never carry a passenger. A
passenger could interfere with your ability to move around to maintain
your balance and control of the ATV.

Important Safety Information
Ride Off-road Only
Your ATV is designed and manufactured for off-road use only. The
tyres are not made for pavement, and the ATV does not have turn
signals and other features required for use on public roads. If you need
to cross a paved or public road, get off and walk your ATV across.
Take Time to Learn & Practice
Even if you have ridden other ATVs, take time to become familiar with
how this ATV works and handles. Practice in a safe area until you build
your skills and get accustomed to the ATV’s size and weight.
Be Alert for Off-road Hazards
The terrain can present a variety of challenges when you ride off-road.
Continually ‘‘read’’ the terrain for unexpected turns, drop-offs, rocks,
ruts, and other hazards. Always keep your speed low enough to allow
time to see and react to hazards.

Important Safety Information
Ride within Your Limits
Pushing limits is another major cause of ATV accidents. Never ride
beyond your personal abilities or faster than conditions warrant.
Remember that alcohol, drugs, fatigue, and inattention can significantly
reduce your ability to make good judgments and ride safely.
Don’t Drink and Ride
Alcohol and riding don’t mix. Even one drink can reduce your ability to
respond to changing conditions, and your reaction time gets worse with
every additional drink. So don’t drink and ride, and don’t let your
friends drink and ride either.
Keep Your Honda in Safe Condition
It’s important to keep your ATV properly maintained and in safe riding
condition. Having a breakdown can be difficult, especially if you are
stranded off-road far from your base. To help avoid problems, inspect
your ATV before every ride and perform all recommended maintenance.

Safety Labels
Your ATV comes with several labels containing important safety
information. Anyone who rides the vehicle should read and understand
this information before riding.
The labels should be considered permanent parts of the vehicle. If a
label comes off or becomes hard to read, contact your Honda dealer for
replacements.
