Int r oduc t ion
Congratulations on choosing your Honda ATV.
When you own a Honda, you’re part of a worldwide family of
satisfied customers — people who appreciate Honda’s reputation
for building quality into every product.
Your Honda was designed as a recreational ATV for off-road use by
one rider only.
This ATV is ATV Type I category G.
We recommend you to receive the ATV Pre-Delivery Checklist from
your dealer.
Before riding, take time to get acquainted with your ATV and how it
works. To protect your investment, we urge you to take
responsibility for keeping your ATV well maintained. Scheduled
service is a must, of course. But it’s just as important to observe the
break-in guidelines, and perform all pre-ride and other periodic
checks detailed in this manual.
We also recommend that you read and understand this owner’s
manual before you ride. It’s full of facts, instructions, safety
information, and helpful tips. To make it easy to use, the manual
contains a detailed list of topics at the beginning of each section and
an index at the back of the book.
As you read this manual, you will find information that is preceded
by a symbol. This information is intended to help you avoid
damage to your Honda, other property, or the environment.
Whenever you ride, tread lightly. By staying on established trails and
riding only in approved areas, you help protect the environment and
keep off-road riding areas open for the future.

Important Safety Information
Your ATV can provide many years of service and pleasure if you take
responsibility for your own safety and understand the challenges you
can meet while riding.
There is much that you can do to protect yourself when you ride.
You’ll find many helpful recommendations throughout this manual.
The following are a few that we consider to be most important.
Follow the Age Recommendation
The minimum recommended age for this ATV model is 16. Children
under age 16 should never operate this vehicle.
Always Wear a Helmet
It’s a proven fact: helmets significantly reduce the number and
severity of head injuries. So always wear an approved motorcycle
helmet. We also recommend that you wear eye protection, sturdy
boots, gloves, and other protective gear (page 60).
Never Carry a Passenger
Your ATV is designed for one person only. There are no handholds,
footrests, or seat for a second person, so never carry a passenger. A
passenger could interfere with your ability to move around to
maintain your balance and control of the ATV.
ATV Safety 3
Important Safety Information
Ride Off-road Only
Your ATV is designed and manufactured for off-road use only. The
tyres are not made for pavement, and the ATV does not have turn
signals and other features required for use on public roads. If you
need to cross a paved or public road, get off and walk your ATV
across.
Take Time to Learn & Practice
Even if you have ridden other ATVs, take time to become familiar
with how this ATV works and handles. Practice in a safe area until
you build your skills and get accustomed to the ATV’s size and
weight.
Be Alert for Off-road Hazards
The terrain can present a variety of challenges when you ride off-
road. Continually ”read” the terrain for unexpected turns, drop-offs,
rocks, ruts, and other hazards. Always keep your speed low enough
to allow time to see and react to hazards.
ATV Safety

Important Safety Information
Ride within Your Limits
Pushing limits is another major cause of ATV crashes. Never ride
beyond your personal abilities or faster than conditions warrant.
Remember that alcohol, drugs, fatigue, and inattention can
significantly reduce your ability to make good judgements and ride
safely.
Don’t Drink and Ride
Alcohol and riding don’t mix. Even one drink can reduce your ability
to respond to changing conditions, and your reaction time gets
worse with every additional drink. So 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 ATV properly maintained and in safe
riding condition. Having a breakdown can be difficult, especially if
you are stranded off-road far from your base. To help avoid
problems, inspect your ATV before every ride and perform all
recommended maintenance.
ATV Safety 5
Labels
The following pages describe the label locations and their meanings.
Some labels warn you of potential hazards that could cause serious
injury. Others provide important safety information. Read this
information carefully and don’t remove the labels, because it is
important for the labels to be stored on the ATV.
If a label comes off or becomes hard to read, contact your dealer for
a replacement.
There is a specific symbol on each label. The meanings of each
symbol and label are as follows.
Read instructions contained in Owner’s Manual
carefully.
Read instructions contained in Shop Manual
carefully. In the interest of safety, take the ATV to be
serviced only by your dealer.

Controls & Features
This ATV is equipped with an electronically controlled, electric-
power-assisted steering system.
While the engine is running, the EPS (Electric Power Steering) system
provides power from the electric motor, which helps you to turn the
ATV’s handlebar more easily.
The EPS system on this ATV utilizes an overheat protection feature to
prevent damage to system components. In certain extended,
repetitive high-load situations, the system will reduce or even disable
power steering assist. The steering will perform as a normal non-EPS
system during this brief period. After cooling down, it will then
return to normal EPS operation.
The PS indicator should light when the ignition switch is turned on
and remain on until the engine is started.
The PS indicator also lights when there is any abnormality in the EPS
system. If this occurs, the electric power assist for turning will not be
available, but the manual steering system will perform as usual.
If the PS indicator lights at any time while riding, reduce speed and
take your ATV to your dealer as soon as possible. Continuing to ride
with a EPS system problem can cause system damage.
Do not modify your Electric Power Steering system. In case of a
malfunction, take your ATV to your dealer.

Is Your ATV Ready to Ride?
Before each ride, it’s important to inspect your ATV and make sure
any problem you find is corrected. A pre-ride inspection is a must,
not only for safety, but because having a breakdown, or even a flat
tyre, can be a major inconvenience.
If your ATV has overturned or been involved in a collision, do not ride
the vehicle until it has been inspected by your dealer. There may be
damage or other problems you cannot see.
Check the following items before you get on the ATV:

Load Limits & Guidelines
Carrying cargo or pulling a trailer will affect how your ATV handles
and greatly reduce its ability in accelerating, braking and making
turns and other maneuvers.
Be sure to observe the weight limits and follow these guidelines:
• Check that the tyres are properly inflated.
• Do not place cargo anywhere on the ATV other than on the front
and rear racks. Otherwise, operating stability may be adversely
affected.
• Never ride with a passenger on the front or rear cargo racks. The
ATV is not designed to carry a passenger.
• Use the trailer hitch to tow another vehicle or trailer. Do not tow
by tying a rope or cable to the rear rack.
• Load cargo on the rear rack as far forward as possible. Make sure
cargo on the front rack does not interfere with handlebar
movement.
• Do not allow cargo to extend beyond the edges of either the
front or rear racks.
• Make sure all cargo is secured before riding.
• Balance cargo weight evenly on both sides.
• Never exceed the maximum weight limit.
• When towing a trailer, take care to maintain balance and
stability. Distribute cargo between the front and rear of the trailer
to obtain the recommended tongue weight.
• Allow extra room for starting, stopping and turning whenever
you carry cargo or pull a trailer.
• Avoid riding on steep slopes when carrying cargo or pulling a
trailer.
• Never cross a slope when towing a trailer.
Loading Guidelines
Before Riding 73
Accessories & Modifications
We strongly advise you not to remove any original equipment or
modify your ATV in any way that would change its design or
operation. Such changes could seriously impair your ATV’s handling,
stability, and braking, making it unsafe to ride.
Because safety, vehicle movement, and clearance must be taken into
consideration, you must consult your tyre maker or your dealer
before changing your tyre model type.
Removing or modifying your lights, exhaust system, emission control
system, or other equipment can also make your ATV illegal.
