A Few Words About Safety
Your safety, and the safety of others, is very
important. Operating this scooter safely is an
important responsibility.
To help you make informed decisions about
safety, we have provided operating
procedures and other information on safety
labels and in this manual. This information
alerts you to potential hazards that could
hurt you or others.
Of course, it is not practical or possible to
warn you about all hazards associated with
operating or maintaining a scooter. You
must use your own good judgment.
You will find important safety information in
a variety of forms, including:
●
Safety labels on the scooter
●
Safety Messages preceded by a safety alert
symbol and one of three signal words:
DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION.
These signal words mean:
3
DANGER
You WILL be KILLED or SERIOUSLY
HURT if you don’t follow instructions.
3
WARNING
You CAN be KILLED or SERIOUSLY
HURT if you don’t follow instructions.
3
CAUTION
You CAN be HURT if you don’t follow
instructions.

Scooter Safety
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.
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. 9
Make sure that you are physically fit, mentally
focused and free of alcohol and drugs. Check
that you are wearing an approved motorcycle
helmet and protective apparel.
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.

Scooter Safety
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 (
2
P. 14), and do not modify
your scooter or install accessories that would
make your scooter unsafe (
2
P. 13).
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 evaluate
the condition of your scooter. If the engine is
still running, turn it off. Inspect for fluid leaks,
check the tightness of critical nuts and bolts,
and check the handlebar, brake 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.

Riding Precautions
11
continued
Scooter Safety
●Exercise caution on low traction surfaces.
uThe tires slip more easily on such surfaces
and braking distances are longer.
●Avoid continuous braking.
uRepeated braking, such as when
descending long, steep slopes can
seriously overheat the brakes, reducing
their effectiveness.
●For full braking effectiveness, operate both
the front and rear brakes together.
❙
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.
●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 and remove the key when
leaving the scooter unattended. Use of an
anti-theft device is also recommended.

deteriorates according to riding conditions and
time elapsed.
Check the engine oil level regularly, and add the
recommended engine oil if necessary. Dirty oil
or old oil should be changed as soon as
possible.
❙
Selecting the Engine Oil
For recommended engine oil, see
“Specifications.”

If you use non-Honda engine oil, check the label
to make sure that the oil satisfies all of the
following standards:
●JASO T 903 standard*
1
: MA
●SAE standard*
2
: 10W-30
●API classification*
3
: SG or higher
*1.
The JASO T 903 standard is an index for engine
oils for 4-stroke motorcycle engines. There are
two classes: MA and MB. For example, the
following label shows the MA classification.
*2.
The SAE standard grades oils by their viscosity.
*3.
The API classification specifies the quality and
performance rating of engine oils. Use SG or
higher oils, excluding oils marked as “Energy
Conserving” or “Resource Conserving” on the
circular API service symbol.

Pro Honda HP coolant is a pre-mixed solution of
antifreeze and distilled water.
A concentration of antifreeze below 40% will
not provide proper corrosion and cold
temperature protection. A concentration of up
to 60% will provide better protection in colder
climates.

❙
Checking the Air Pressure
Visually inspect your tires and use an air
pressure gauge to measure the air pressure at
least once a month or any time you think the
tires look low. Always check air pressure when
your tires are cold.
❙
Inspecting for Damage
Inspect the tires for
cuts, slits, or cracks
that exposes fabric or
cords, or nails or
other foreign objects
embedded in the side
of the tire or the
tread. Also inspect
for bumps or bulges in the side walls of the
tires.
❙
Inspecting for Abnormal Wear
Inspect the tires for
signs of abnormal
wear on the contact
surface.

Follow these guidelines whenever you replace
tires.
●Use the recommended tires or equivalents of
the same size, construction, speed rating,
and load range.
●Have the wheel balanced with Honda
Genuine balance weights or equivalents after
the tire is installed.
●Do not install a tube inside a tubeless tire on
this scooter. Excessive heat build-up can
cause the tube to burst.
●Use only tubeless tires on this scooter. The
rims are designed for tubeless tires, and
during hard acceleration or braking, a tube-
type tire could slip on the rim and cause the
tire to rapidly deflate.

WARNING
Riding on tires that are excessively
worn or improperly inflated can cause
a crash in which you can be seriously
hurt or killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner’s
manual regarding tire inflation and
maintenance.

Maintenance
The service life of your tires is dependent on
many factors, including, but not limited to,
riding habits, road conditions, vehicle loading,
tire air pressure, maintenance history, speed,
and environmental conditions (even when the
tires are not in use).
In addition to your regular inspections and
maintenance, it is recommended that you have
annual inspections performed once the tires
reach 5 years old. It is also recommended that
all tires be removed from service after 10 years
from the date of manufacture, regardless of
their condition or state of wear.
The last four digits of the TIN (tire identification
number) indicate the date of manufacture.

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.
Allow the engine, muffler, brakes, and other
high-temperature parts to cool before washing.
1.
Rinse your scooter thoroughly using a garden
hose to remove loose dirt.
2.
If necessary, use a sponge or a soft towel
with mild cleaner to remove road grime.
uClean the headlight lenses, 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.
uMake sure that no lubricant spills onto the
brakes or tires. Brake discs, pads, drum or
shoes contaminated with oil will suffer
greatly reduced braking effectiveness and
can lead to a crash.
5.
Apply a coat of wax to prevent corrosion.
uAvoid 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 tires and brakes.
uIf your scooter has any matte painted
parts, do not apply a coat of wax to the
matte painted surface.

Washing Precautions
Follow these guidelines when washing:
●Do not use high-pressure washers:
uHigh-pressure water cleaners can damage
moving parts and electrical parts,
rendering them inoperable.
●Do not direct water at the muffler:
uWater in the muffler can prevent starting
and causes rust in the muffler.
●Dry the brakes:
uWater adversely affects braking
effectiveness. After washing, apply the
brakes intermittently at low speed to help
dry them.
●Do not direct water under the seat:
uWater in the owner’s manual storage
compartment can damage your
documents and other belongings.
●Do not direct water at the air cleaner:
uWater in the air cleaner can prevent the
engine from starting.
●Do not direct water near the headlight:
uAny condensation inside the headlight
should dissipate after a few minutes of
running the engine.
●Do not use wax or polishing compounds on
matte painted surface:
uUse a soft cloth or sponge, plenty of
water, and a mild detergent to clean matte
painted surfaces. Dry with a soft clean
cloth.
Aluminum will corrode from contact with dirt,
mud, or road salt. Clean aluminum 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.

Information
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 gasoline or detergents on the
instruments, panels, or headlights.
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 motorcycle cover.
If you won’t be riding for an extended period,
follow these guidelines:
●Wash your scooter and wax all painted
surfaces (except matte painted surfaces).
Coat chrome pieces with rust-inhibiting oil.
●Place your scooter on its center stand and
position a block so that both tires are off the
ground.
●After rain, remove the body cover and allow
the scooter to dry.
●Remove the battery (

You & the Environment
89
Information
You & the Environment
Owning and riding a scooter can be enjoyable,
but you must do your part to protect the
environment.
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.
Put oil and other toxic wastes in approved
containers and take them to a recycling center.
Call your local or state office of public works or
environmental services to find a recycling center
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, gasoline,
coolant, and cleaning solvents contain poisons
that can hurt refuse workers and contaminate
drinking water, lakes, rivers, and oceans.
Choose Sensible Cleaners
Recycle Wastes
Vehicle Identification Number

Emission Control Systems
92
Information
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) and Environment Canada (EC) require
that your scooter comply with applicable
exhaust, crankcase, and fuel permeation
emission standards during its useful life, when
operated and maintained according to the
instructions provided.
Compliance with the terms of the Distributor’s
Warranties for Honda Scooter Emission Control
Systems is necessary in order to maintain a valid
emissions system warranty (USA only). The
Vehicle Emission Control Information label is
attached to the right side of the frame body
under the footrest. The EPA requires that scooter built after January
1, 1983 comply with applicable noise emission
standards for one year or 3,730 miles (6,000
km) after the time of purchase when operated
and maintained according to the instructions
provided.

Information
The exhaust emission control system consists of
appropriate carburetor settings, and no
adjustment should be made except idle speed
adjustment with the throttle stop screw.
❙
Secondary Air Injection System
The secondary air injection system adds filtered
air into the exhaust gas to help improve
emission control performance.
❙
Catalytic Converter
The exhaust system contains one or more
catalytic converters. Catalytic converters use a
catalyst to convert most of the harmful exhaust
gas compounds into harmless compounds.
Exhaust Emission Control System
Emission Control Systems
94
Information
The engine is equipped with a closed crankcase
system to prevent discharging crankcase
emissions into the atmosphere.
Blow-by gas is returned to the combustion
chamber through the air cleaner and the intake
manifold.
The fuel tank, fuel hoses, and fuel vapor charge
hoses use fuel permeation control technologies
to prevent fuel vapor emissions.
Tampering with these components to reduce or
defeat the effectiveness of the fuel permeation
technologies is prohibited.
❙
TAMPERING WITH THE NOISE CONTROL
SYSTEM IS PROHIBITED:
U. S. federal law prohibits, and Canadian
provincial laws may prohibit, the following acts
or the causing thereof: (1) The removal or
rendering inoperative by any person, other than
for purposes of maintenance, repair or
replacement, of any device or element of design
incorporated into any new vehicle for the
purpose of noise control prior to its sale or
delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is
in use; or (2) the use of the vehicle after such
device or element of design has been removed
or rendered inoperative by any person.

Catalytic Converter
96
Information
Catalytic Converter
This scooter is equipped with an oxidation
catalytic converter. The catalytic converter
contain precious metals that serve as catalysts in
high temperature chemical reactions that
convert hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon
monoxide (CO) 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 gasoline. Leaded
gasoline will damage the catalytic converter.
●Keep the engine in good running condition.
A poorly running engine can cause the
catalytic converter to overheat causing
damage to the converter or the scooter.
●If your engine is misfiring, backfiring, stalling,
or otherwise not running properly, stop
riding and turn off the engine. Have your
scooter serviced as soon as possible.
High Altitude Carburetor Adjustment
97
Information
High Altitude Carburetor
Adjustment
Your engine’s air-fuel mixture becomes overly
rich when operated at high altitudes.
Above 6,500 feet (2,000 m), a rich mixture can
cause driveability problems, reduce engine
performance, and increase fuel consumption.
To compensate, you can have the carburetor
adjusted for high altitude riding. See your
dealer.
However, the carburetor must be returned to
standard factory specifications before riding
again at lower altitudes (below 5,000 feet,
1,500 m). See your Honda dealer.
Sustained riding at lower altitudes with the lean
high-altitude setting may cause rough idling,
stalling, or engine damage from overheating.
Oxygenated Fuels
98
Information
Oxygenated Fuels
Some conventional fuels blended with alcohol
or an ether compound are available in some
locales to help reduce emissions to meet clean
air standards. These gasolines are collectively
referred to as oxygenated fuels. If you plan to
use oxygenated fuel, check that it is unleaded
and meets the minimum octane rating and
blend requirement.
The following fuel blends are EPA-approved
and have been approved for use in your
scooter:
●Ethanol (ethyl alcohol) up to 10% by volume.
uGasoline containing ethanol may be
marketed under the name Gasohol.
●Methanol (methyl alcohol) up to 5% by
volume that contain cosolvents and corrosion
inhibitors to protect the fuel system. Never
use a blend containing more than 5%.
If you accidentally fill your fuel tank with an
oxygenated fuel containing higher percentages,
you may experience performance problems. To
resolve the problem, have your dealer drain the
fuel tank and replace with the correct fuel.
Fuel system or performance problems resulting
from the use of an oxygenated fuel containing
higher percentages are not covered by your
warranty.
If you notice any undesirable operating
symptoms or performance problems, try a
different brand of gasoline.
NOTICE
Improper use of oxygenated fuels can damage metal,
rubber, and plastic parts of your fuel system.
Oxygenated fuel can also damage paint. Damage caused
by spilled fuel is not covered by warranty.
