Introduction
Congratulations on choosing your Honda CRF
motocross motorcycle.
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 CRF is a high performance racing
motorcycle that utilizes the latest motocross
technology and is intended for competition use in
sanctioned, closed-course events by experienced
riders only.
Be aware that motocross is a physically demanding
sport that requires more than just a fine
motorcycle. To do well, you must be in excellent
physical condition and be a skillful rider. For the
best results, work diligently on your physical
conditioning and practice frequently.
Before riding, take time to get acquainted with
your CRF and how it works. To protect your
investment, we urge you to take responsibility for
keeping your CRF well maintained. Scheduled
service is a must, of course. But it's just as
important to observe the break-in guidelines, and
perform all the pre-ride and other periodic checks
detailed in this manual.
You should also read the 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 table of contents, a
detailed list of topics at the beginning of each
section, and an index at the back of the book.
Introduction
As you read this manual, you will find information
that is preceded by a symbol. This
information is intended to help you avoid damage

Unless you are mechanically qualified and have
the proper tools, you should see your Honda dealer
for the service and adjustment procedures
discussed in this manual.
If you have any questions, or if you ever need a
special service or repairs, remember that your
Honda dealer knows your CRF best and is
dedicated to your complete satisfaction.
Happy riding!
