• The Required Maintenance Schedule specifies how often you should have your motorcycle serviced, and what things need attention. It is essential that your motorcycle be serviced as scheduled to retain its high level of safety, dependability, and emission control performance.
• These instructions are based on the assumption that the motorcycle will be used exclusively for its designed purpose. Sustained high speed operation or operation in unusually wet or dusty conditions will require more frequent service than specified in the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE. Consult your authorized Honda dealer for recommendations applicable to your individual needs and use.
