4 Motorcycle Safety
Attachments & Modifications
Modifying this motorcycle or improperly attaching police equipment can make
it unsafe. Before making any modifications or attaching any equipment, be sure
to read the following information.
Attachments
Because Honda cannot test all available equipment or combinations of
equipment that may be required for use on a police vehicle, you and your
department must be responsible for the proper selection, installation, and use of
equipment attached to this vehicle.
We strongly recommend that qualified personnel evaluate a motorcycle fitted
with all re
quired police equipment under the anticipated conditions before the
vehicle is placed into service.
Always follow these guidelines:
• Make sure any added equipment does not obscure any lights, reduce ground
clearance and lean angle, limit suspension travel or steering travel, alter
riding position, or interfere with operating any controls.
• Do not add any electrical equipment that will exceed the motorcycle’s
electrical system capacity (page 177). A blown fuse can cause a loss of lights
or engine power (page 165).
• Place attachments as low and close to the center of the motorcycle as
possible. The farther weight is added away from the center of the motorcycle,
the greater effect it will have on stability and performance.
Improper modifications or addition
of police equipment can cause a
crash in which you can be
seriously hurt or killed.
Follow all instructions in this
owner’s manual regarding
attachments and modifications.
