Motorcycle Safety
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 this guideline:
• Make sure the accessory does not reduce
ground clearance and lean angle, limit
suspension travel or steering travel, alter your
riding position, or interfere with operating any
controls.
Modifications
We strongly advise you not to remove any
original equipment or modify your motorcycle in
any way that would change its design or
operation. Such changes could seriously impair
your motorcycle's handling, stability, and
braking, making it unsafe to ride.
We also advice you not to make any
modifications or remove any equipment (such as
the USDA qualified spark arrester or emission
control system components) that would make the
motorcycle illegal in your area.
