Riding Precautions - Honda CRF1100A 2021 Owner's Manual

Riding Precautions

#
Jacket and Trousers
Protective, highly visible, long-sleeved jacket and
durable trousers for riding (or a protective suit)
#
Additional Off-road Gear
On-road apparel may also be suitable for casual
off-road riding. But if you plan on any serious
off-road riding you will need more serious off-
road gear. In addition to your helmet and eye
protection, we recommend off-road motorcycle
boots and gloves, riding pants with knee and hip
pads, a jersey with elbow pads, and a chest/
shoulder protector.
