Motorcycle Safety
● Park on a firm, level surface.
● If you must park on a slight incline or
loose surface, park so that the
motorcycle 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 handlebars (2 P. 55) and leave
your motorcycle while taking the Honda
SMART Key with you. Deactivate the
Honda SMART Key system if necessary.
2 P. 56
Use of an anti-theft device is also
recommended.
