Preparation
Basic Operation & Riding
Starting & Stopping the Engine
Always follow the proper starting procedure described below.
For your safety, avoid starting or operating the engine in an enclosed area such
as a garage. Your motorcycle’s exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide
gas which can collect rapidly in an enclosed area and cause illness or death.
Your motorcycle is equipped with a side stand ignition cut-off system. If the
side stand is down –– the engine cannot be started unless the transmission is in
neutral. If the side stand is up –– the engine can be started in neutral, or in gear
with the clutch lever pulled in. After starting with the side stand down, the
engine will stop if the transmission is put in gear before raising the side stand.
Your motorcycle can be started with the transmission in gear by pulling in the
clutch lever before operating the starter.
Before starting, insert the key, turn the ignition switch ON, and confirm the
following:
The transmission is in neutral (neutral indicator is ON).
The engine stop switch is set to RUN.
The low oil pressure indicator is ON.
The ABS indicator light is ON (models equipped with ABS).
The PGM-FI malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) is OFF.
The airbag indicator is OFF (models equipped with Airbag).
The low oil pressure indicator and airbag indicator (models equipped with
Airbag) should go off a few seconds after the engine starts. If the low oil
pressure indicator lights during operation, stop the engine immediately and
check the engine oil level.
If the airbag indicator stays on or lights during operation, have your motorcycle
inspected as soon as possible by an authorized Honda dealer (models equipped
with Airbag).
