3 Important Saf ety Inf ormation Motorcycle Saf ety Take Time to Learn & Practice Ride Def ensivelyMake Yourself Easy to See You and Your Motorcycle Riding Tips, Always pay attention to other vehicles around you, and do not assume that other drivers see you. Be prepared to stop quickly or make an evasive maneuver. For other riding tips, see the booklet, which came with your new motorcycle (USA only). Even if you have ridden other motorcycles, take time to become familiar with how this motorcycle works and handles. Practice in a safe area until you build your skills and get accustomed to the motorcycle’s size and weight. Because many accidents involve inexperienced or untrained riders, we urge all riders to take a certified course approved by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF). See page . The most frequent motorcycle collision happens when a car turns left in front of a motorcycle. Another common situation is a car moving suddenly into your lane. Some drivers do not see motorcycles because they are not looking for them. To make yourself more visible, wear bright ref lective clothing, position yourself so other drivers can see you, signal before turning or changing lanes, and use your horn when it will help others notice you. 44 — — y y y y
4 Important Saf ety Inf ormation Motorcycle Saf ety Ride within Your LimitsKeep Your Honda in Saf e Condition Don’t Drink and Ride Pushing limits is another major cause of motorcycle accidents.

It’s important to keep your motorcycle properly maintained and in saf e riding condition. To help avoid problems, inspect your motorcycle bef ore every ride and perform all recommended maintenance.
