A Few Words About Safety
Your safety, and the safety of others, is very
important. Operating this vehicle 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 vehicle. You must
use your own good judgment.
You will find important safety information in a
variety of forms, including:
● Safety labels on the vehicle
●
Safety Messages preceded by a safety alert
symbol and one of three signal words:
DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.
These signal words mean:
3
DANGER
You WILL be KILLED or SERIOUSLY HURT
if you don’t follow instructions.
3
WARNING
You CAN be KILLED or SERIOUSLY HURT
if you don’t follow instructions.
3
CAUTION
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 vehicle, other
property, or the environment.

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 flames
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.
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 helmet and protective apparel.
2 P. 10
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 helmet and protective apparel.
Instruct your passenger on holding onto the
grab rail or your waist, leaning with you in turns,
and keeping their feet on the footpegs, even
when the vehicle is stopped.
Even if you have ridden other vehicles, practice
riding in a safe area to become familiar with how
this vehicle works and handles, and to become
accustomed to the vehicle's size and weight.
Always Wear a Helmet
Before Riding
Take Time to Learn & Practice
Safety Guidelines
4
Vehicle Safety
We recommend that all riders take a certified
course approved by the Motorcycle Safety
Foundation (MSF) or a state approved training
course. New riders should start with the basic
course, and even experienced riders will find the
advanced course beneficial.
For information about the MSF training course
nearest you, call the national toll-free number:
(800) 446-9227.
Other riding tips can be found in the You
and Your Motorcycle Riding Tips booklet that
came with your vehicle.
Developing off-road riding skill is a gradual step-
by step process. Start by practicing at low speeds
in a safe area and slowly build your skills.
Ask your dealer if there are off-road riding
groups in your area where you can learn from
experienced riders. Also be sure to read Tips &
Practice Guide for the Off-Highway Motorcyclist
that came with your new vehicle.
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.
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.
The terrain can be 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.

Vehicle Safety
Never ride beyond your personal abilities or
faster than conditions warrant. Fatigue and
inattention can impair your ability to use good
judgment and ride safely.
Alcohol or drugs 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. The same is true for drug use. Don't drink
or use and ride, and don't let your friends do it
either.
It's important to keep your vehicle properly
maintained and in safe riding condition.
Having a breakdown can be difficult, especially if
you are stranded off-road far from your base.
Inspect your vehicle before every ride and
perform all recommended maintenance. Never
exceed load limits (
2 P. 17), and do not modify
your vehicle or install accessories that would
make your vehicle unsafe (
2 P. 15).
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.
If you decide to continue riding, first turn the
ignition switch to the OFF position, and evaluate
the condition of your vehicle. 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 vehicle may have suffered damage that is
not immediately apparent. Have your vehicle
thoroughly checked at a qualified service facility
as soon as possible.

Vehicle Safety
If you smell an unusual odor coming from the
lithium-ion (li-ion) battery, park your vehicle in a
safe place outside and away from flammable
objects, then turn the ignition switch to the OFF
position. Have your vehicle inspected by your
dealer immediately.
Unlike standard motorcycles, or its manual
transmission sibling, the CRF1100D and
CRF1100D4 with dual-clutch transmission does
not have a clutch lever that would provide you
with an additional means to control the engine
power being transmitted to the rear wheel. Thus,
in the unlikely event that you experience a stuck
throttle or other unintended application of
power to the rear wheel, you should shut down
the engine by use of the engine stop switch
(
2 P. 115). By moving this switch to the (Stop)
position, you will immediately stop the engine
but maintain all electrical system functions,
including lights and indicators.

Vehicle Safety
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a
colorless, odorless gas. Breathing carbon
monoxide can cause loss of consciousness and
may lead to death.
If you run the engine in a confined or even partly
enclosed area, the air you breathe could contain
a dangerous amount of carbon monoxide.
Never run your vehicle inside a garage or other
enclosure.
Carbon Monoxide Hazard
3
WARNING
Running the engine of your vehicle while
in an enclosed or even partially enclosed
area can cause a rapid build-up of toxic
carbon monoxide gas.
Breathing this colorless, odorless gas can
quickly cause unconsciousness and lead
to death.
Only run your vehicle's engine when it is
located in a well ventilated area
outdoors.

handlebar and feet on the footpegs.
● Instruct your passenger to keep their hands on
the seat strap or your waist and their feet on
the footpegs while riding.
● Always consider the safety of your passenger,
as well as other drivers and riders.
Make sure that you and any passenger are
wearing an approved helmet, eye protection,
and high-visibility protective clothing. Avoid
wearing loose clothes that could get caught on
any part of the vehicle. Ride defensively in
response to weather and road conditions.
#
Helmet
Should be safety-standard certified, high-
visibility, and the correct size for your head.
● Must fit comfortably but securely, with the chin
strap fastened
● Face shield with unobstructed field of vision or
other approved eye protection
Look for a DOT (Department of
Transportation) certification label on any helmet
you buy.

Vehicle Safety
#
Boots or Riding Shoes
Sturdy boots with non-slip soles and ankle
protection
#
Jacket and Pants
Protective, highly visible, long-sleeved jacket and
durable long pants for riding (or a protective suit)
#
Additional Off-road Gear
On-road apparel may also be suitable for casual
off-road riding. But if you plan on any serious
off-road riding you will need more serious off-
road gear. In addition to your helmet and eye
protection, we recommend off-road motorcycle
boots and gloves, riding pants with knee and hip
pads, a jersey with elbow pads, and a chest/
shoulder protector.
Riding Precautions
During the first 300 miles (500 km) of running,
follow these guidelines to ensure your vehicle's
future reliability and performance.
● Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid
acceleration.
● Avoid hard braking and rapid down-shifts.
● Ride conservatively.
Observe the following guidelines:
● Avoid excessively hard braking and
downshifting.
u Sudden braking can reduce the vehicle's
stability.
u Where possible, reduce speed before
turning; otherwise you risk sliding out.
Break-in Period
Brakes
Riding Precautions
12
Vehicle Safety
● Exercise caution on low traction surfaces.
u The tires 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.
#
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
This model is equipped with an Anti-lock Brake
System (ABS) designed to help prevent the
brakes from locking up during hard braking.
The ABS functions with information provided by
the IMU (Inertia Measurement Unit).
● ABS does not reduce braking distance. In
certain circumstances, ABS may result in a
longer stopping distance.
● ABS does not function at speeds below 6 mph
(10 km/h).
● The brake lever and pedal may recoil slightly
when applying the brakes. This is normal.
● Always use the recommended front/rear tires
and sprockets to ensure correct ABS
operation.
#
Engine Braking
Engine braking helps slow your vehicle 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.
Riding Precautions
13
Continued
Vehicle Safety
● Park on a firm, level surface.
● If you must park on a slight incline or loose
surface, park so that the vehicle 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 vehicle 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.
3.
Slowly lean the vehicle 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 vehicle to fall.
5.
Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position
and remove the key.
2 P. 119
Follow these guidelines to protect the engine,
fuel system and catalytic converter:
● Use only unleaded gasoline.
● Use the recommended octane number. Using
lower octane gasoline will result in decreased
engine performance.
● Do not use fuels containing a high
concentration of alcohol.
2 P. 358
● Do not use stale or contaminated gasoline or
an oil/gasoline mixture.
● Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

Vehicle Safety
When the Honda Selectable 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 eases the rapid motion
during a wheelie when accelerating based on the
Torque Control level selected.
Torque Control will allow some wheel spin
during acceleration at the lower Torque Control
setting levels. 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.
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 vehicle 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 tires and
sprockets to ensure correct Torque Control
operation.

Accessories &
Modifications
We strongly advise that you do not add any
accessories that were not specifically designed or
approved for your vehicle by Honda or make
modifications to your vehicle from its original
design. Doing so can make it unsafe.
Modifying your vehicle may also void your
warranty and make your vehicle illegal to
operate on public roads. Before deciding to
install accessories on your vehicle, be certain the
modification is safe and legal.
Do not pull a trailer with, or attach a sidecar to,
your vehicle. Your vehicle was not designed for
these attachments, and their use can seriously
impair your vehicle's handling.

Vehicle Safety
Off-Road Safety
Learn to ride in an uncongested off-road area
free of obstacles before venturing onto
unfamiliar terrain.
● Always obey local off-road riding laws and
regulations.
● Obtain permission to ride on private property.
Avoid posted areas and obey “NO
Trespassing” signs.
● Ride with a friend on another vehicle so that
you can assist each other in case of trouble.
● Familiarity with your vehicle is critically
important should a problem occur far from
help.
● Never ride beyond your ability and experience
or faster than conditions warrant.
● If you are not familiar with the terrain, ride
cautiously. Hidden rocks, holes, or ravines
could spell disaster.
● A muffler is required in most off-road areas.
Don't modify your exhaust system.
Remember that excessive noise bothers
everyone and creates a bad image for
motorcycling.
Loading
17
Vehicle Safety
Loading
● Carrying extra weight affects your vehicle's
handling, braking and stability.
Always ride at a safe speed for the load you
are carrying.
● Avoid carrying an excessive load and keep
within specified load limits.

Do not use a steam cleaner, a high pressure
cleaner, a wire brush, volatile solvent such as
gasoline and benzene, abrasive cleaner, chain
cleaner or lubricant NOT designed specifically
for O-ring chains as these can damage the
rubber O-ring seals.
Avoid getting lubricant on the brakes or tires.
Avoid applying excess chain lubricant to prevent
spray onto your clothes and the vehicle.
NOTICE
Use of a new chain with worn sprockets will cause rapid
chain wear.
Recommended lubricant:

Maintenance
Pro Honda HP Coolant is a pre-mixed solution of
antifreeze and distilled water.
A concentration of antifreeze below 40% will not
provide proper corrosion and cold temperature
protection.
A concentration of up to 60% will provide better
protection in colder climates.
Service more frequently when riding in rain, at
full throttle, or after the vehicle is washed or
overturned. Service if the deposit level can be
seen in the transparent section of the drain tube.
If the drain tube overflows, the air filter may
become contaminated with engine oil causing
poor engine performance.
#
Checking the Air Pressure
Visually inspect your tires and use an air pressure
gauge to measure the air pressure before each off-
road ride and whenever you return to pavement
after riding off-road. If you only ride on pavement,
check the pressure at least once a month or any
time you think the tires look low. Always check air
pressure when your tires are cold.
Recommended Coolant
Concentration:
50% antifreeze and 50% distilled water
NOTICE
Using coolant not specified for aluminum engines or tap/
mineral water can cause corrosion.

If you decide to adjust the tire pressure for a
particular off-road riding condition, make
changes a little at a time.
Even if the direction of the valve stem is changed,
do not return it to the original position. Have
your vehicle inspected by your dealer.
#
Inspecting for Damage
Inspect the tires for
cuts, slits, or cracks
that expose fabric or
cords, or nails or other
foreign objects
embedded in the side
of the tire or the tread.
Also inspect for any
unusual bumps or bulges in the side walls of the
tires.

Inspecting Tread Depth
Inspect the tread wear indicators. If they become
visible, replace the tires immediately.
For safe riding, you should replace the tires when
the minimum tread depth is reached.
#
Inspecting Rims and Valve Stems
Inspect the rims for damage and loose spokes.
Also inspect the valve stems for their positions.
A tilted valve stem indicates the tube is slipping
inside the tire or the tire is slipping on the rim.

WARNING
Riding on tires that are excessively worn
or improperly inflated can cause a crash
in which you can be seriously hurt or
killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner's
manual regarding tire inflation and
maintenance.
Maintenance Fundamentals
264
Maintenance
Have your tires replaced by your dealer.
For recommended tires, air pressure and
minimum tread depth, see “Specifications.”
2 P. 374
Follow these guidelines whenever you replace
tires.
● Use the recommended tires or equivalents of
the same size, construction, speed rating, and
load range.
● Have the wheel balanced with Honda Genuine
balance weights or equivalent after the tire is
installed.
●
Do not install a tube inside a tubeless tire on
this vehicle. Excessive heat build-up can cause
the tube to burst.
●
Use only tubeless tires on this vehicle.
The rims are designed for tubeless tires, and
during hard acceleration or braking, a tube-
type tire could slip on the rim and cause the
tire to rapidly deflate.
● Remember to replace the inner tube
whenever you replace a tire. The old tube will
probably be stretched, and it could fail if
installed in a new tire.

Maintenance
The service life of your tires is dependent on
many factors, including, but not limited to, riding
habits, road conditions, vehicle loading, tire air
pressure, maintenance history, speed, and
environmental conditions (even when the tires
are not in use).
In addition to your regular inspections and
maintenance, it is recommended that you have
annual inspections performed once the tires
reach 5 years old. It is also recommended that all
tires be removed from service after 10 years
from the date of manufacture, regardless of their
condition or state of wear.
The last four digits of the TIN (tire identification
number) indicate the date of manufacture.

Caring for Your Vehicle
Frequent cleaning and polishing is important to
ensure the life of your Honda. A clean vehicle
makes it easier to spot potential problems.
In particular, seawater and salts used to prevent
ice on roads promote the formation of corrosion.
Always wash your vehicle thoroughly after riding
on coastal or treated roads.
Allow the engine, muffler, brakes, and other
high-temperature parts to cool before washing.
1.
Rinse your vehicle thoroughly using a low
pressure garden hose to remove loose dirt.
2.
If necessary, use a sponge or a soft towel with
mild cleaner to remove road grime.
u Clean the windscreen, headlight lens,
panels, and other plastic components with
extra care to avoid scratching them. Avoid
directing water into the air cleaner, muffler,
and electrical parts.
3.
Thoroughly rinse your vehicle with plenty of
clean water and dry with a soft, clean cloth.
4.
After the vehicle dries, lubricate any moving
parts.
u Make sure that no lubricant spills onto the
brakes or tires. Brake discs, pads, drum or
shoes contaminated with oil will suffer
greatly reduced braking effectiveness and
can lead to a crash.
5.
Lubricate the drive chain immediately after
washing and drying the vehicle.
6.
Apply a coat of wax to prevent corrosion.
u Avoid products that contain harsh
detergents or chemical solvents. These can
damage the metal, paint, and plastic on
your vehicle.

Information
Emission Control Systems
Your vehicle engine emits combustion
byproducts, including carbon monoxide (CO),
oxides of nitrogen (NOx), and hydrocarbons
(HC). Gasoline evaporation also emits
hydrocarbons. Controlling the production of
NOx, CO, and HC is important for the
environment.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
the California Air Resources Board (CARB), and
Environment and Climate Change Canada
(ECCC) require that your vehicle comply with
applicable exhaust, crankcase, and fuel
permeation emission standards during its useful
life, when operated and maintained according to
the instructions provided.
CARB also requires that your vehicle comply with
applicable evaporative emission requirements
during its useful life, when operated and
maintained according to the instructions provided.
Compliance with the terms of the
Distributor's Warranties for Honda Motorcycle
Emission Control Systems is necessary in order to
maintain a valid emissions system warranty.
The Vehicle Emission Control Information label is
located the rear fender under the front seat.

The EPA requires that vehicles built after January
1, 1983 comply with applicable noise emission
standards for one year or 3,730 miles (6,000 km)
after the time of purchase when operated and
maintained according to the instructions
provided.
The exhaust emission control system includes the
following components that should not need
adjustment, although periodic inspection by your
dealer is recommended.
#
PGM-FI System
The PGM-FI (programmed fuel injection) system
uses sequential multiport fuel injection, and is
comprised of air intake, engine control, fuel
control, and exhaust control subsystems. The
engine control module (ECM) uses sensors to
determine how much air enters the engine, and
then controls how much fuel to inject.
#
Ignition Timing Control System
The ignition timing control system adjusts the
ignition timing to reduce the amount of HC, CO,
and NOx produced.
#
Secondary Air Injection System
The secondary air injection system adds filtered
air into the exhaust gas to help improve emission
control performance.
#
Catalytic Converters
The exhaust system contains one or more
catalytic converters. Catalytic converters use a
catalyst to convert most of the harmful exhaust
gas compounds into harmless compounds.
An evaporative emissions control system uses a
canister filled with charcoal to adsorb fuel vapor
from the fuel tank while the engine is off. The
vapor is drawn into the engine and burned while
riding.

Information
The engine is equipped with a closed crankcase
system to prevent discharging crankcase
emissions into the atmosphere.
Blow-by gas is returned to the combustion
chamber through the air cleaner and throttle
body.
The fuel tank, fuel hoses, and fuel vapor charge
hoses use fuel permeation control technologies
to prevent fuel vapor emissions. Tampering with
these components to reduce or defeat the
effectiveness of the fuel permeation
technologies is prohibited.
#
TAMPERING WITH THE NOISE CONTROL
SYSTEM IS PROHIBITED:
U. S. federal law prohibits, and Canadian
provincial laws may prohibit, the following acts or
the causing thereof: (1) The removal or
rendering inoperative by any person, other than
for purposes of maintenance, repair or
replacement, of any device or element of design
incorporated into any new vehicle for the
purpose of noise control prior to its sale or
delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in
use; or (2) the use of the vehicle after such device
or element of design has been removed or
rendered inoperative by any person.

Problems Affecting Vehicle Exhaust
Emissions
Catalytic Converter
357
Information
Catalytic Converter
This vehicle is equipped with a three-way
catalytic converter. The catalytic converter
contains precious metals that serve as catalysts in
high temperature chemical reactions that
convert hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide
(CO), and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in the
exhaust gases into safe compounds.
A defective catalytic converter contributes to air
pollution and can impair your engine's
performance. A replacement unit must be an
original Honda part or equivalent.
Follow these guidelines to protect your vehicle's
catalytic converter.
● Always use unleaded gasoline. Leaded
gasoline will damage the catalytic converter.
● Keep the engine in good running condition. A
poorly running engine can cause the catalytic
converter to overheat, causing damage to the
converter or the vehicle.
● If your engine is misfiring, backfiring, stalling,
or otherwise not running properly, stop riding
and turn off the engine. Have your vehicle
serviced as soon as possible.
Oxygenated Fuels
358
Information
Oxygenated Fuels
Some conventional fuels blended with alcohol or
an ether compound are available in some locales
to help reduce emissions to meet clean air
standards. These gasolines are collectively
referred to as oxygenated fuels. If you plan to
use oxygenated fuel, check that it is unleaded
and meets the minimum octane rating and blend
requirement.
The following fuel blends have been approved
for use in your vehicle:
● Ethanol (ethyl alcohol) up to 10% by volume.
u Gasoline containing ethanol may be
marketed under the name Gasohol.
● Do not use gasoline containing methanol
(methyl alcohol).
If you accidentally fill your fuel tank with an
oxygenated fuel containing higher percentages,
you may experience performance problems. To
resolve the problem, have your dealer drain the
fuel tank and replace with the correct fuel. Fuel
system or performance problems resulting from
the use of an oxygenated fuel containing higher
percentages are not covered by your warranty.
If you notice any undesirable operating
symptoms or performance problems, try a
different brand of gasoline.
NOTICE
Improper use of oxygenated fuels can damage metal,
rubber, and plastic parts of your fuel system.
Oxygenated fuel can also damage paint. Damage caused
by spilled fuel is not covered by warranty.

Information
The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C.
s.2301 et seq., makes it illegal for motor vehicle
manufacturers to void a motor vehicle warranty
or deny warranty coverage solely because an
aftermarket or recycled part has been used to
repair the vehicle or someone other than the
authorized service provider performed service
on the vehicle. This provision does not apply to a
new motor vehicle purchased solely for
commercial or industrial use.
Under federal law, a manufacturer may deny
warranty coverage and charge for repairs to a
vehicle if it is discovered that an aftermarket or
recycled part installed on the vehicle is defective
or was installed incorrectly and caused damage
to another part of the vehicle otherwise covered
under warranty. The Federal Trade Commission
requires that a manufacturer demonstrate that
an aftermarket or recycled part or service
performed by a person other than an authorized
service provider caused damage to another part
of the vehicle otherwise covered under warranty
before denying warranty coverage. Additionally,
federal law allows a manufacturer to void a
motor vehicle warranty or deny warranty
coverage if the manufacturer provides the article
or service to consumers free of charge under the
warranty or the manufacturer has secured a
waiver from the Federal Trade Commission.
Please remember that maintenance
recommended in the Maintenance Schedule is
