Safety Guidelines

Follow these guidelines to enhance your safety:

●Perform all routine and regular inspections specified in this manual.
- Stop the engine and keep sparks and flame away before filling the fuel tank.
- Do not run the engine in enclosed or partly enclosed areas. Carbon monoxide in exhaust gases is toxic and can kill you.

Always Wear a Helmet

It's a proven fact: helmets and protective apparel significantly reduce the number and severity of head and other injuries. So always wear an approved motorcycle helmet and protective apparel. ➞P. 6

Before Riding

Make sure that you are physically fit, mentally focused and free of alcohol and drugs. Check

that you and your passenger are both wearing an approved motorcycle helmet and protective apparel. Instruct your passenger on holding onto the grab rail or your waist, leaning with you in turns, and keeping their feet on the footpegs, even when the scooter is stopped.

Take Time to Learn & Practice

Even if you have ridden other scooters, practice riding in a safe area to become familiar with how this scooter works and handles, and to become accustomed to the scooter's size and weight.

Ride Defensively

Always pay attention to other vehicles around you, and do not assume that other drivers see you. Be prepared to stop quickly or perform an evasive maneuver.

Safety Guidelines

Make Yourself Easy to See

Make yourself more visible, especially at night, by wearing bright reflective clothing, positioning yourself so other drivers can see you, signaling before turning or changing lanes, and using your horn when necessary.

Ride within Your Limits

Never ride beyond your personal abilities or faster than conditions warrant. Fatigue and inattention can impair your ability to use good judgement and ride safely.

Don't Drink and Ride

Alcohol and riding don't mix. Even one alcoholic drink can reduce your ability to respond to changing conditions, and your reaction time gets worse with every additional drink. Don't drink and ride, and don't let your friends drink and ride either.

Keep Your Honda in Safe Condition

It's important to keep your scooter properly maintained and in safe riding condition. Inspect your scooter before every ride and perform all recommended maintenance. Never exceed load limits (P. 11), and do not modify your scooter or install accessories that would make your scooter unsafe (P. 10).

If You are Involved in a Crash

Personal safety is your first priority. If you or anyone else has been injured, take time to assess the severity of the injuries and whether it is safe to continue riding. Call for emergency assistance if needed. Also follow applicable laws and regulations if another person or vehicle is involved in the crash.

If you decide to continue riding, first turn the ignition switch to the ☐ (Off) position, and evaluate the condition of your scooter.

Inspect for fluid leaks, check the tightness of critical nuts and bolts, and check the handlebar, control levers, brakes, and wheels. Ride slowly and cautiously. Your scooter may have suffered damage that is not immediately apparent. Have your scooter thoroughly checked at a qualified service facility as soon as possible.

Carbon Monoxide Hazard

Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, a colourless, odorless gas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause loss of consciousness and may lead to death.

If you run the engine in confined or even partly enclosed area, the air you breathe could contain a dangerous amount of carbon monoxide. Never run your scooter inside a garage or other enclosure.

WARNING

Running the engine of your scooter while in an enclosed or even partially enclosed area can cause a rapid build-up of toxic carbon monoxide gas.

Breathing this colourless, odorless gas can quickly cause unconsciousness and lead to death.

Only run your scooter's engine when it is located in a well ventilated area outdoors.

Safety Precautions

Safety Precautions

●Ride cautiously and keep your hands on the handlebar and feet on the floor.
- Keep passenger's hands onto the grab rail or your waist, passenger's feet on the footpegs while riding.
●Always consider the safety of your passenger, as well as other drivers and riders.

Protective Apparel

Make sure that you and any passenger are wearing an approved motorcycle helmet, eye protection, and high-visibility protective clothing. Ride defensively in response to weather and road conditions.

Helmet

Safety-standard certified, high-visibility, correct size for your head

- Must fit comfortably but securely, with the chin strap fastened.

●Face shield with unobstructed field of vision or other approved eye protection

WARNING

Not wearing a helmet increases the chance of serious injury or death in a crash.

Make sure that you and any passenger always wear an approved helmet and protective apparel.

Gloves

Full-finger leather gloves with high abrasion resistance

Boots or Riding Shoes

Sturdy boots with non-slip soles and ankle protection

Jacket and Trousers

Riding Precautions

Riding Precautions

Running-in Period

During the first 500 km (300 miles) of running, follow these guidelines to ensure your scooter's future reliability and performance.

●Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid acceleration.
●Avoid hard braking.
●Ride conservatively.

Brakes

Observe the following guidelines:

●Avoid excessively hard braking.

▶Sudden braking can reduce the scooter's stability.
▶Where possible, reduce speed before turning; otherwise you risk sliding out.

●Exercise caution on low traction surfaces.

The tyres slip more easily on such surfaces, and braking distances are longer.

●Avoid continuous braking.
▶Repeated braking, such as when descending long, steep slopes can seriously overheat the brakes, reducing their effectiveness.
●For full brake effectiveness, operate both the front and rear brakes together.

Combi Brake

Your scooter is equipped with a brake system that distributes the braking force between the front and rear brakes.

The distribution of the braking force applied to the front and rear brakes when operating the front brake lever only and when operating the rear brake lever only is different.

For full braking effectiveness, operate both the front and rear brakes together.

Riding Precautions

Wet or Rainy Conditions

Road surfaces are slippery when wet, and wet brakes further reduce braking efficiency.

Exercise extra caution when braking in wet conditions.

If the brakes get wet, apply the brakes while riding at low speed to help them dry.

Parking

●Park on a firm, level surface.
- If you must park on a slight incline or loose surface, park so that the scooter cannot move or fall over.
●Make sure that high-temperature parts cannot come into contact with flammable materials.
- Do not touch the engine, muffler, brakes and other high-temperature parts until they cool down.

●To reduce the likelihood of theft, always lock the handlebar, lock the ignition switch

(P. 25) and leave your scooter while taking the Honda SMART Key with you.

Deactivate the Honda SMART Key system if necessary. ➤P. 28

Also set the anti-theft alarm system.

Parking with the Side Stand or Centre Stand

1. Stop the engine.

2. Using the side stand

Push the side stand down.

Slowly lean the scooter to the left until its weight rests on the side stand.

Using the centre stand

To lower the centre stand, stand on the left side of the scooter.

Hold the left handle grip and the grab rail.

Press down on the tip of the centre stand with your right foot and, simultaneously, pull up and back.

Left handle grip Centre stand Grab rail

1. Turn the ignition switch to the Lock) position (▶P. 25) and lock the ignition switch (▶P. 33).

2. Set the anti-theft alarm system. ➞ P. 36

Refuelling and Fuel Guidelines

Follow these guidelines to protect the engine, fuel system and catalytic converter:

- Use only unleaded petrol. - Use recommended octane number. Using lower octane petrol will result in decreased engine performance.

●Do not use fuels containing a high concentration of alcohol. ➤P. 130

●Do not use stale or contaminated petrol or an oil/petrol mixture.

●Avoid getting dirt, or water in the fuel tank.

Accessories & Modifications

Accessories & Modifications

We strongly advise that you do not add any accessories that were not specifically designed for your scooter by Honda or make modifications to your scooter from its original design. Doing so can make it unsafe. Modifying your scooter may also void your warranty and make your scooter illegal to operate on public roads and highways. Before deciding to install accessories on your scooter be certain the modification is safe and legal.

WARNING

Improper accessories or modifications can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed.

Follow all instructions in this owner's manual regarding accessories and modifications.

Do not pull a trailer with, or attach a sidecar to, your scooter. Your scooter was not designed for these attachments, and their use can seriously impair your scooter's handling.

Loading

• Carrying extra weight affects your scooter's handling, braking and stability. Always ride at a safe speed for the load you are carrying.
  ●Avoid carrying an excessive load and keep within specified load limits.
  ●Tie all luggage securely, evenly balanced and close to the centre of the scooter.
• Do not place objects near the lights or the muffler.

Caring for Your Scooter

Caring for Your Scooter

Frequent cleaning and polishing is important to ensure the life of your Honda. A clean scooter makes it easier to spot potential problems. In particular, seawater and salts used to prevent ice on roads promote the formation of corrosion. Always wash your scooter thoroughly after riding on coastal or treated roads.

Washing

Allow the engine, muffler, brakes, and other high-temperature parts to cool before washing.

1. Rinse your scooter thoroughly using a low pressure garden hose to remove loose dirt.

2. If necessary, use a sponge or a soft towel with mild cleaner to remove road grime.
   ▶Clean the headlight lens, panels, and other plastic components with extra care to avoid scratching them. Avoid directing water into the air cleaner, muffler, and electrical parts.

3. Thoroughly rinse your scooter with plenty of clean water and dry with a soft, clean cloth.

4. After the scooter dries, lubricate any moving parts.

▶Make sure that no lubricant spills onto the brakes or tyres. Brake disc, pads, drum or shoes contaminated with oil will suffer greatly reduced braking effectiveness and can lead to a crash.

1. Apply a coat of wax to prevent corrosion.

▶Avoid products that contain harsh detergents or chemical solvents. These can damage the metal, paint, and plastic on your scooter. Keep the wax clear of the tyres and brakes.

▶If your scooter has any mat painted parts, do not apply a coat of wax to the mat painted surface.

Caring for Your Scooter

Washing Precautions

Follow these guidelines when washing:

●Do not use high-pressure washers:

▶High-pressure water cleaners can damage moving parts and electrical parts, rendering them inoperable.
▶Water in the air intake can be drawn into the throttle body and/or enter the air cleaner.

●Do not direct water at the muffler:

▶Water in the muffler can prevent starting and causes rust in the muffler.

●Dry the brakes:

▶Water adversely affects braking effectiveness. After washing, apply the brakes intermittently at low speed to help dry them.

●Do not direct water under the seat:
▶Water in the under seat compartment can damage your documents and other belongings.
●Do not direct water at the air cleaner:
▶Water in the air cleaner can prevent the engine from starting.

●Do not direct water near the headlight:
The headlight's inside lens may fog temporarily after washing or while riding in the rain. This does not impact the headlight function.
However, if you see a large amount of water or ice accumulated inside the lens(es), have your vehicle inspected by your dealer.
- Do not use wax or polishing compounds on mat painted surface:
▶Use soft cloth or sponge, plenty of water, and a mild detergent to clean mat painted surfaces. Dry with a soft clean cloth.

Aluminium Components

Aluminium will corrode from contact with dirt, mud, or road salt. Clean aluminium parts regularly and follow these guidelines to avoid scratches:

• Do not use stiff brushes, steel wool, or cleaners containing abrasives.
  ●Avoid riding over or scraping against curbs.

continued

Caring for Your Scooter

Panels

Follow these guidelines to prevent scratches and blemishes:

●Wash gently using a soft sponge and plenty of water.
●To remove stubborn stains, use diluted detergent and rinse thoroughly with plenty of water.
●Avoid getting petrol, brake fluid, or detergents on the instruments, panels, or headlights.

Exhaust Pipe and Muffler

When the exhaust pipe and muffler are painted, do not use a commercially available abrasive kitchen cleaning compound. Use a neutral detergent to clean the painted surface on the exhaust pipe and muffler. If you are not sure if your exhaust pipe and muffler are painted, contact your dealer.

Storing Your Scooter

If you store your scooter outdoors, you should consider using a full-body scooter cover. If you won't be riding for an extended period, follow these guidelines:

●Wash your scooter and wax all painted surfaces (except mat painted surfaces). Coat chrome pieces with rust-inhibiting oil.

- Place your scooter on its centre stand and position a block so that both tyres are off the ground.

●After rain, remove the body cover and allow the scooter to dry.

- Remove the battery (P. 77) to prevent discharge. Fully charge the battery and then place it in a shaded, well-ventilated area.

▶If you leave the battery in place, disconnect the negative ⊖ terminal to prevent discharge.

After removing your scooter from storage, inspect all maintenance items required by the Maintenance Schedule.

Transporting Your Scooter

If your scooter needs to be transported, it should be carried on a motorcycle trailer or a flatbed truck or trailer that has a loading ramp or lifting platform, and motorcycle tie-down straps. Never try to tow your scooter with a wheel or wheels on the ground.

NOTICE

Towing your scooter can cause serious damage to the transmission.

You & the Environment

You & the Environment

Owning and riding a scooter can be enjoyable, but you must do your part to protect the environment.

Choose Sensible Cleaners

Use a biodegradable detergent when you wash your scooter. Avoid aerosol spray cleaners that contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) which damage the atmosphere's protective ozone layer.

Recycle Wastes

Put oil and other toxic wastes in approved containers and take them to a recycling centre. Call your local or state office of public works or environmental services to find a recycling centre in your area, and to get instructions on how to dispose of non-recyclable wastes. Do not place used engine oil in the trash, or pour it down a

drain or on the ground. Used oil, petrol, coolant, and cleaning solvents contain poisons that can hurt refuse workers and contaminate drinking water, lakes, rivers, and oceans.

Serial Numbers

Serial Numbers

The frame and engine serial numbers uniquely identify your scooter and are required in order to register your scooter. They may also be required when ordering replacement parts.

You should record these numbers and keep them in a safe place.

Fuels Containing Alcohol

Fuels Containing Alcohol

Some conventional fuels blended with alcohol are available in some locales to help reduce emissions to meet clean air standards. If you plan to use blended fuel, check that it is unleaded and meets the minimum octane rating requirement.

The following fuel blends can be used in your scooter:

●Ethanol (ethyl alcohol) up to 10% by volume.

▶Petrol containing ethanol may be marketed under the name Gasohol.

The use of petrol containing more than 10% ethanol may:

●Damage the painting of the fuel tank.
●Damage the rubber tubes of the fuel line.
●Cause corrosion of the fuel tank.
●Cause poor drivability.

NOTICE

Use of blended fuels containing higher than approved percentages can damage metal, rubber, plastic parts of your fuel system.

If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms or performance problems, try a different brand of petrol.

Catalytic Converter

Catalytic Converter

This scooter is equipped with a three-way catalytic converter. The catalytic converter contains precious metals that serve as catalysts in high temperature chemical reactions that convert hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO), and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in the exhaust gasses into safe compounds.

A defective catalytic converter contributes to air pollution and can impair your engine's performance. A replacement unit must be an original Honda part or equivalent.

Follow these guidelines to protect your scooter's catalytic converter.

●Always use unleaded petrol. Leaded petrol will damage the catalytic converter.
- Keep the engine in good running condition.
●Have your scooter serviced if your engine is misfiring, backfiring, stalling, or otherwise not running properly, stop riding and turn off the engine.
