Accessories
We strongly recommend that you use only
genuine Honda accessories that have been
specifically designed and tested for your
motorcycle. Because Honda cannot test all
other accessories, you must be personally
responsible for proper selection, installation
and use of non-Honda accessories. Check with
your dealer for assistance and always follow
these guidelines:
Make sure the accessory does not obscure any
lights, reduce ground clearance and banking
angle, limit suspension travel or steering travel,
alter your riding position or interfere with
operating any controls.
Be sure electrical equipment does not exceed
the motorcycle's electrical system capacity
(page 115). A blown fuse can cause a loss of
lights or engine power.
