Basic Operation & Driving Guidelines

Driving Guidelines
Your Honda SXS was designed and intended for off-road use. In the
event that you must drive on a paved surface, be aware that your
Honda SXS will feel and handle different than it does on dirt. The
tires will also wear much faster.
Vehicle Design
The Honda SXS handles somewhat differently from on-highway
vehicles due in part to features that allow it to perform its role as an
off-highway utility vehicle. For example, this Honda SXS has a higher
center of gravity than vehicles designed for use only on pavement. It
is also equipped with large low-pressure tires that allow good
traction in sand, loose dirt, wet grass and other low-traction
surfaces.
These advantages come at some cost. Because your vehicle is taller
and rides higher off the ground, it can more easily tip or roll over if
you make abrupt turns or drive on sloped terrain.
Off-highway Environments
Driving on private property, or in approved off-highway areas,
means you leave a generally predictable and orderly world behind.
You won’t find lane markers or traffic signals, and no one will be
there to warn you of trouble ahead. It’s up to you to assess situations
and drive within limits. The terrain has limits (it may be too steep or
bumpy, for example). The vehicle has limits (e.g., traction, stability,
and power). And you may be limited by lack of experience.
