Rider Training - Honda ST1300 2007 Owner's Manual

Are You Ready to Ride?

Rider Training

Developing your riding skills is an on-going process. Even if you have ridden
other motorcycles, take time to become familiar with how this motorcycle works
and handles. Practice riding the motorcycle in a safe area to build your skills. Do
not ride in traffic until you get accustomed to the motorcycle's controls, and feel
comfortable with its size and weight.
We urge all riders to take a certified course approved by the Motorcycle Safety
Foundation (MSF). New riders should start with the basic course, and even
experienced riders will find the advanced course beneficial. For information
about the MSF training course nearest you, call the national toll-free number:
(800) 446-9227.
Other riding tips can be found in the Riding Tips booklet that came with your
motorcycle (USA only).
