THE
UNEXPECTED
+
II
IFYOUCRASH
Personal safety
is
your first priority after a
crash.
Ii
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 that you are capable of riding
safely. first evaluate the condition
of
your
scooter.
If
the
engine
is
still running, turn it
off and look it over carefully; inspect
it
for
fluid leaks, check the tightness of critical
nuts and bolts, and secure such
palis
as the
handlebar, control levers, brakes, and
wheels.
If
there
is
minor damage, or you are unsure
about possible damage, ride slowly and
cautiously. Sometimes, crash damage
is
hidden or not immediately apparent, so you
should have your
scooter
thoroughly
checked at a qualified service facility as
soon as possible. Also, be sure to have your
Honda
dealer
check
the
frame and
suspension after any serious crash.
