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

Improperly loading your motorcycle can affect
its stability and handling. Even if your motorcycle is
properly loaded, you should ride at reduced speeds
and never exceed 80 mph (130 km/h) when carrying
cargo.
Follow these guidelines whenever you carry a
passenger or cargo:
Check that both tires are properly inflated.
If you change your normal load, you may need
to adjust the front suspension (page 20) and
the rear suspension (page 21).
To prevent loose items from creating a hazard,
make sure that all cargo is securely tied down
before you ride away.
Place cargo weight as close to the center of the
motorcycle as possible.
Balance cargo weight evenly on both sides.
