Honda CR85 2006 Owner's Manual page 2

Introduction
Congratulations on choosing your Honda CR
motocross motorcycle.
When you own a Honda, you're part of a
worldwide family of satisfied customers-people
who appreciate Honda's reputation for building
quality into every product.
Your CR is a high performance racing
motorcycle that utilizes the latest motocross
technology and is intended for competition use in
sanctioned, closed-course events by experienced
riders only.
Be aware that motocross is a physically
demanding sport that requires more than just a
fine motorcycle. To do well, you must be in
excellent physical condition and be a skillful
rider. For the best results, work diligently on
your physical conditioning and practice
frequently.
Before riding, take time to get acquainted with
your CR and how it works. To protect your
investment, we urge you to take responsibility for
keeping your CR well maintained. Scheduled
service is a must, of course. But it's just as
important to observe the break-in guidelines, and
perform all the pre-ride and other periodic checks
detailed in this manual.
You should also read the owner's manual before
you ride. It's full of facts, instructions, safety
information, and helpful tips. To make it easy to
use, the manual contains a table of contents, a
detailed list of topics at the beginning of each
section, and an index at the back of the book.
Introduction
As you read this manual, you will find
information that is preceded by a
symbol. This information is intended to help you
avoid damage to your Honda, other property, or
the environment.
Unless you are mechanically qualified and have
the proper tools, you should see your Honda
dealer for the service and adjustment procedures
discussed in this manual.
The official Honda Service Manual for your CR
is available (page 120). It is the same manual
your dealer uses. If you plan to do any service
on your CR beyond the standard maintenance
procedures in this manual, you will find the
Service Manual a valuable reference.
If you have any questions, or if you ever need a
special service or repairs, remember that your
Honda dealer knows your CR best and is
dedicated to your complete satisfaction.
Please report any change of address or ownership
to your Honda dealer so we will be able to
contact you concerning important production
information.
