Safety Guidelines
Make Yourself Easy to See
Make yourself more visible, especially at night,
by wearing bright reflective clothing, positioning
yourself so other drivers can see you, signaling
before turning or changing lanes, and using
your horn when necessary.
Be Alert for Off-road Hazards
The terrain can be present a variety of
challenges when you ride off-road.
Continually "read" the terrain for unexpected
turns, drop-offs, rocks, ruts and other hazards.
Always keep your speed low enough to allow
time to see and react to hazards.
Ride within Your Limits
Never ride beyond your personal abilities or
faster than conditions warrant. Fatigue and
inattention can impair your ability to use good
judgement and ride safely.

Don't Drink and Ride
Alcohol and riding don't mix. Even one alcoholic
drink can reduce your ability to respond to
changing conditions, and your reaction time
gets worse with every additional drink. Don't
drink and ride, and don't let your friends drink
and ride either.
Keep Your Honda in Safe Condition
It's important to keep your motorcycle properly
maintained and in safe riding condition.
Having a breakdown can be difficult, especially
if you are stranded off-road far from your base.
Inspect your motorcycle before every ride and
perform all recommended maintenance. Never
exceed load limits ( P. 14), and do not modify
2
your motorcycle or install accessories that
would make your motorcycle unsafe ( P. 12).
