Maintenance Schedule - Honda CRF250X 2006 Owner's Manual & Competition Handbook

Maintenance Schedule

To maintain the safety and reliability of your
motorcycle, regular inspection and service is
required as shown in the Maintenance
Schedules – Regular OFF ROAD (non-
competition) Use and Competition Use-that
follow.
The Maintenance Schedule lists items that can be
performed with basic mechanical skills and hand
tools. Procedures for these items are provided in
this manual.
The Maintenance Schedule also includes items
that involve more extensive procedures and may
require special training, tools, and equipment.
Therefore, we recommend that you have your
Honda dealer perform these tasks unless you
have advanced mechanical skills and the required
tools. Procedures for items in this schedule are
provided in a service manual available for
purchase from your Honda dealer (page 166).
Because your motorcycle does not have an
odometer, service intervals in the maintenance
schedules are expressed in terms of riding days
as well as miles. To avoid overlooking required
service, we urge you to develop a convenient
way to record the number of days and/or miles
you ride.
If you do not feel capable of performing a given
task or need assistance, remember that your
Honda dealer knows your motorcycle best and is
fully equipped to maintain and repair it. If you
decide to do your own maintenance, use only
genuine Honda parts or their equivalents for
repair or replacement to ensure the best quality
and reliability.

Servicing Your Honda

scheduled maintenance period.
Each item on the maintenance schedule requires
some mechanical knowledge. Certain items
(particularly those marked *and**) may require
more technical information and tools. Consult
your Honda dealer.
* Should be serviced by your Honda dealer,
unless the owner has the proper tools and
service date and is mechanically qualified.
Refer to the official Honda Service Manual
(page 164).
** In the interest of safety, we recommend these
items be serviced only by your Honda dealer.
