Other operations are more complex, require the use of special tools, and are best left to professionals. Under normal conditions, wheel removal should only be performed by Honda mechanics or other qualified mechanics. The instructions included in this manual are intended for emergency use only. Below are some of the most important safety warnings.
However, we cannot warn you against any possible risk that may arise in connection with maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not to perform a specific operation.
Attention!
- Failure to correctly and safely follow all maintenance instructions could result in serious injury or death on the road.
- Always follow the instructions and warnings contained in this manual.
Safety Information
- Make sure the engine is switched off before starting any maintenance or repair work. This will help avoid some possible risks.
- Carbon monoxide, which is contained in exhaust gases, is highly toxic. If you need to start the engine, do so in a well-ventilated environment.
- Burns from contact with hot engine parts. Allow the engine and exhaust system to cool before starting work.
- Injuries caused by contact with moving parts. Do not start the engine unless instructed to do so for this operation.
- Read the work instructions before you begin and make sure you have the necessary tools and skills.
- To reduce the risk of the motorcycle falling, place the motorcycle on a firm, level surface using the original side stand or a maintenance stand.
- Use caution when handling fuel or battery to avoid the risk of fire or explosion. When cleaning motorcycle parts, use only non-flammable solvent and do not use gasoline. Keep cigarettes and open flames away from the battery and fuel system components.
Remember that an official Honda dealer knows your motorcycle better than anyone else and has all the necessary equipment to service and repair it.
To ensure the best quality and reliability during repairs and replacements, use only new genuine Honda parts, or their complete equivalents.
