Basic Operation & Riding
This section gives basic information on how to
begin riding your motorcycle. It includes how
to start and stop your engine, how to use the
throttle, clutch, and brakes, and what to do
when you’re through riding.
For more information on how to make turns,
ride on hills, etc., see the Tips & Practice Guide
for the Off -Highway Motorcyclist booklet that
came with your Honda (USA only).
To protect your new engine and enjoy optimum
performance and service life, refer to Break-in
