Load Limits And Guidelines - Honda CB Hornet 160R Owner's Manual

LOAD LIMITS AND GUIDELINES

Your vehicle has been designed to carry you
and one Pillion rider. When you carry a Pillion
rider, you may feel some difference during
acceleration and braking. But so long as you
keep your vehicle well- maintained, with good
tyres and brakes, you can safely carry loads
within the given limits and guidelines.
However, exceeding the weight limit or
carrying an unbalanced load can seriously
affect your vehicle's handling, braking and
stability. Non-Honda accessories, improper
modifications, and poor maintenance can
also reduce your safety margin.
The following pages give more specific
information on loading, accessories and
modifications.
