Loading Guidelines

transporting you and a passenger. You
may wish to secure a jacket or other small
items to the seat when you are not riding
with a passenger. If you wish to carry more
cargo, check with your Honda dealer for
advice, and be sure to read the information
regarding accessories on (page 5).
Improperly loading your vehicle can affect
its stability and handling. Even if your
vehicle is properly loaded, you should
ride at reduced speeds whenever carrying
cargo.
Follow these guidelines whenever you carry
a passenger or cargo:
● Check that both tyres are properly
inflated.
● If you change your normal load, you may
need to adjust the rear suspension
