SCOOTER SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Your scooter can provide many years of service and pleasure if you take responsibility for your own safety and understand the challenges that you can meet on the road. There is much that you can do to protect yourself when you ride. Youll find many helpful recommendations throughout this manual. Following are a few that we consider to be most important. Always Wear a Helmet Its a proven fact: helmets significantly reduce the number and severity of head injuries. So always wear an approved motorcycle helmet and make sure your passenger does the same. We also recommend that you wear eye protection, sturdy boots, gloves, and other protective gear (page 2 ). Make Yourself Easy to See Some drivers do not see scooters because they are not looking for them. To make yourself more visible, wear bright reflective clothing, position yourself so other drivers can see you, signal before turning or changing lanes, and use your horn when it will help others notice you. Ride Within Your Limits Pushing the limits is another major cause of scooter crashes. Never ride beyond your personal abilities or faster than conditions warrant. Remember that alcohol, drugs, fatigue and inattention can significantly reduce your abilit y to make good judgements and ride safely.

10/02/17 16:51:12 32KWN600_012

Dont Drink and Ride Alcohol and riding dont mix. Even one drink can reduce your ability to respond to changing conditions, and your reaction time gets worse with every additional drink. So dont drink and ride, and dont let your friends drink and ride either. Keep Your Bike in Safe Condition For safe riding, its important to inspect your scooter before every ride and perform all recommended maintenance. Never exceed load limits, and only use accessories that have been approved by Honda for this scooter. See page 5 for more details.

PROTECTIVE APPAREL For your safety, we strongly recommend that you always wear an approved motorcycle helmet, eye protection, boots, gloves, trousers, and a long-sleeved shirt or jacket whenever you ride. Although complete protection is not possible, wearing proper gear can reduce the chance of injury when you ride. Following are suggestions to help you choose proper gear.

Not wearing a helmet increases the chance of serious injury or death in a crash. Be sure you and your passenger always wear a helmet, eye protection and other protective apparel when you ride. 2

10/02/17 16:51:16 32KWN600_013

Helmets and Eye Protection Your helmet is your most important piece of riding gear because it offers the best protection against head injuries. A helmet should fit your head comfortably and securely. A bright-coloured helmet can make you more noticeable in traffic, as can reflective strips. An open-face helmet offers some protection, but a full-face helmet offers more. Always wear a face shield or goggles to protect your eyes and help your vision.

Additional Riding Gear In addition to a helmet and eye protection, we also recommend: Sturdy boots with non-slip soles to help protect your feet and ankles. Leather gloves to keep your hands warm and help prevent blisters, cuts, burns and bruises. A motorcycle riding suit or jacket for comfort as well as protection. Brightcoloured and reflective clothing can help make you more noticeable in traffic. Be sure to avoid loose clothes that could get caught on any part of your scooter.

10/02/17 16:51:21 32KWN600_014

ALWAYS wear a helmet. You should also wear a face shield or goggles. Wear bright or reflective clothing. Clothes should be close-fitting.

Wear gloves.

Shoes should be close-fitting, have low heels and offer ankle protection. 4

LOAD LIMITS AND GUIDELINES Your scooter has been designed to carry you, one passenger and a limited amount of cargo. When you add cargo or carry a passenger, you may feel some difference during acceleration and braking. But so long as you keep your scooter well-maintained, with good tyres and brakes, you can safely carry loads within the given limits and guidelines. However, exceeding the weight limit or carrying an unbalanced load can seriously affect your scooters handling, braking and stability. Non-Honda accessories, improper modifications, and poor maintenance can also reduce your safety margin. The following pages give more specific information on loading, accessories and modifications.

Loading How much weight you put on your scooter, and how you load it, are important to your safety. Anytime you ride with a passenger or cargo you should be aware of the following information.

Overloading or improper loading can cause a crash and you can be seriously hurt or killed. Follow all load limits and other loading guidelines in this manual.

10/02/17 16:51:36 32KWN600_016

Load Limits Following are the load limits for your scooter: Maximum weight capacity: 180 kg (397 lb) Except KO type 152 kg (335 lb) KO type only Includes the weight of the rider, passenger, all cargo and all accessories Maximum cargo weight: 13 kg (29 lb) Except KO type 11 kg (24 lb) KO type only The weight of added accessories will reduce the maximum cargo weight you can carry. Putting too much weight in individual storage compartments can also affect stability and handling. So be sure to stay within the limits given below: Maximum weight: in center compartment in glove box Glove box: weight limit: 1.0 kg (2.2 lb) 6 10 kg (22 lb) 1.0 kg (2.2 lb) Center compartment: weight limit: 10 kg (22 lb)

10/02/17 16:51:42 32KWN600_017

Loading Guidelines Your scooter is primarily intended for transporting you and a passenger. You may wish to secure a jacket or other small items to the seat when you are not riding with a passenger. If you wish to carry more cargo, check with your Honda dealer for advice, and be sure to read the inf ormat ion regarding accessories on page 8 . Improperly loading your scooter can affect its stability and handling. Even if your scooter is properly loaded, you should ride at reduced speeds whenever carrying cargo.

Follow these guidelines whenever you carry a passenger or cargo: Check that both tyres are properly inflated (page 39 ). To prevent loose items from creating a hazard, make sure the center compartment, glove box is closed and that any other cargo is securely tied down before you ride away. Place cargo weight as close to the center of the scooter as possible. Balance cargo weight evenly on both sides.

10/02/17 16:51:48 32KWN600_018

Accessories and Modifications Modifying your scooter or using non-Honda accessories can make your scooter unsafe. Bef ore you consider making any modifications or adding an accessory, be sure to read the following information.

Accessories We strongly recommend that you use only Honda Genuine Accessories that have been specifically designed and tested for your scooter. Because Honda cannot test all other accessories, you must be personally responsible for proper selection, installation and use of non-Honda accessories. Check with your dealer for assistance and always follow these guidelines: Make sure the accessory does not obscure any lights, reduce ground clearance and banking angle, limit suspension travel or steering travel, alter your riding position or interfere with operating any controls. Be sure electrical equipment does not exceed the scooters electrical system capacity (page 135 ). A blown fuse can cause a loss of lights or engine power.

Improper accessories or modifications can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed. Follow all instructions in this owners manual regarding accessories and modifications.

10/02/17 16:51:52 32KWN600_019

Do not pull a trailer or sidecar with your scooter. This scooter was not designed for these attachments, and their use can seriously impair your scooters handling.

Modifications We strongly advise you not to remove any original equipment or modify your scooter in any way that would change its design or operation. Such changes could seriously impair your scooters handling, stability and braking, making it unsafe to ride. Removing or modif ying your lights, mufflers, emission control system or other equipment can also make your scooter illegal.

MAJOR COMPONENTS (Information you need to operate this scooter)

BRAKES Combined Brake System (CBS) This scooter is equipped with a Combined Brake System. Operating the rear brake lever applies the rear brake and a portion of t he f ront br ake. F or f ull braking effectiveness, use both the front and rear brake lever simultaneously, as you would with a conventional scooter braking system. As with a conventional scooter braking system, excessively hard application of the brake controls may cause wheel lock, reducing control of the scooter. For normal braking, apply both the front and rear brake lever to match your road speed. For maximum braking, close the throttle and firmly apply the front and rear brake lever.

27

10/02/17 16:53:37 32KWN600_038

Front Brake This scooter has a hydraulic front disc brake. As the brake pads wear, brake fluid level drops. There are no adjustments to perform, but fluid level and pad wear must be inspected periodically. The system must be inspected frequently to ensure there are no fluid leaks. If the control lever free travel becomes excessive and the brake pads are not worn beyond the recommended limit (page 109 ), there is probably air in the brake system and it must be bled. See your Honda dealer for this service. Front Brake Fluid Level: With the scooter in an upright position, check the fluid level. It should be above the LOWER level mark ( 1 ). If the level is at or below the LOWER level mark, check the brake pads for wear (page 109 ).

Worn pads should be replaced. If the pads are not worn, have your brake system inspected for leaks. The recommended brake fluid is Honda DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container, or an equivalent. Other Checks: Make sure there are no fluid leaks. Check for deterioration or cracks in the hoses and fittings.

10/02/17 16:54:06 32KWN600_043

COOLANT Coolant Recommendation The owner must properly maintain the coolant to prevent freezing, overheating, and corrosion. Use only high quality ethylene glycol antif reeze containing corrosion protection inhibitors specifically recommended for use in aluminum engines. (SEE ANTIFREEZE CONTAINER LABEL). Use only low-mineral drinking water or distilled water as a part of the antifreeze solution. Water that is high in mineral content or salt may be harmful to the aluminum engine. Using coolant with silicate inhibitors may cause premature wear of water pump seals or blockage of radiator passages. Using tap water may cause engine damage.

The factory provides a 50/50 solution of antifreeze and distilled water in this scooter. This coolant solution is recommended for most operating temperatures and provides good corrosion protection. A higher concentration of antifreeze decreases the cooling system perf ormance and is recommended only when additional protection against freezing is needed. A concentration of less than 40/60 (40% antifreeze) will not provide proper corrosion protection. During freezing temperatures, check the cooling system frequently and add higher concentrations of antifreeze (up to a maximum of 60% antifreeze) if required.

33

10/02/17 16:54:12 32KWN600_044

Inspection The reserve tank ( 1 ) is in the center compartment. Open the seat (page 47 ) and check the coolant level in the reserve tank while the engine is at the normal operating temperature with the scooter in an upright position. If the coolant level is below the LOWER level mark ( 2 ), remove the clip ( 3 ) (page 66 ) and coolant reserve tank lid ( 4 ). Open the reserve tank cap ( 5 ) and add coolant mixture until it reaches the UPPER level mark ( 6 ). Always add coolant to the reserve tank. Do not attempt to add coolant by removing the radiator cap. If the reserve tank is empty, or if coolant loss is excessive, check for leaks and see your Honda dealer for repair.

Use unleaded petrol with a research octane number of 91 or higher. The use of leaded petrol will cause premature damage to the catalytic converter.

If spark knock or pinking occurs at a steady engine speed under normal load, change brands of petrol. If spark knock or pinking persists, consult your Honda dealer. Failure to do so is considered misuse, and damage caused by misuse is not covered by Hondas Limited Warranty.

36

10/02/17 16:54:26 32KWN600_047

Petrol Containing Alcohol If you decide to use a petrol containing alcohol (gasohol), be sure its octane rating is at least as high as that recommended by Honda. There are two types of gasohol: one containing ethanol, and the other containing methanol. Do not use petrol that contains more than 10 % ethanol. Do not use petrol containing methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) that does not also contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors for methanol. Never use petrol containing more than 5 % methanol, even if it has cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors.

The use of petrol containing more than 10 % ethanol (or more than 5 % methanol) 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. Before buying fuel from an unfamiliar station, try to find out if the fuel contains alcohol. If it does, confirm the type and percentage of alcohol used. If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms while using a petrol that contains alcohol, or one that you think contains alcohol, switch to a petrol that you know does not contain alcohol.

ENGINE OIL Engine Oil Level Check Check the engine oil level each day before riding the scooter. The level must be maintained between the upper ( 1 ) and lower ( 2 ) level marks on the oil fill cap/dipstick ( 3 ). 1. Start the engine and let it idle for 35 minutes. 2. Stop the engine and put the scooter on its center stand on level ground. 3. After 2 3 minutes, remove the oil fill cap/dipstick, wipe it clean, and reinsert the oil fill cap/dipstick without screwing it in. Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick. The oil level should be between the upper and lower level marks on the oil fill cap/ dipstick. 4. If required, add the specified oil (see page 97 ) up to the upper level mark. Do not overfill.

5. Reinstall the oil fill cap/dipstick. Check for oil leaks. Running the engine with insufficient oil pressure may cause serious engine damage. (3)

TUBELESS TYRES To safely operate your scooter, your tyres must be the proper type and size, in good condition with adequate tread, and correctly inflated for the load you are carrying. The following pages give more detailed information on how and when to check your air pressure, how to inspect your tyres for damage, and what to do when your tyres need to be repaired or replaced.

Air Pressure Keeping your tyres properly inflated provides the best combination of handling, tread life and riding comfort. Generally, underinf lated tyres w ear unevenly, adversely affect handling, and are more likely to fail from being overheated. Overinflated tyres make your scooter ride harshly, are more prone to damage from road hazards, and wear unevenly. We recommend that you visually check your tyres before every ride and use a gauge to measure air pressure at least once a month or any time you think the tyres might be low. Tubeless tyres have some self-sealing ability if they are punctured. However, because leakage is often very slow, you should look closely for punctures whenever a tyre is not fully inflated.

Using tyres 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 owners manual regarding tyre inflation and maintenance.

39

10/02/17 16:54:46 32KWN600_050

Always check air pressure when your tyres are cold when the scooter has been parked for at least three hours. If you check air pressure when your tyres are warm when the scooter has been ridden for even a few miles the readings will be higher than if the tyres were cold. This is normal, so do not let air out of the tyres to match the recommended cold air pressures given below. If you do, the tyres will be underinflated. The recommended cold tyre pressures are: kPa (kgf/cm2, psi) Driver only Driver and one passenger Front Rear Front Rear 200 (2.00 , 29) 225 (2.25 , 33) 200 (2.00 , 29) 250 (2.50 , 36)

Inspection Whenever you check the tyre pressures, you should also examine the tyre treads and sidewalls for wear, damage, and foreign objects: Look for: Bumps or bulges in the side of the tyre or the tread. Replace the tyre if you find any bumps or bulges. Cuts, splits or cracks in the tyre. Replace the tyre if you can see fabric or cord. Excessive tread wear. Also, if you hit a pothole or hard object, pull to the side of the road as soon as you can safely and carefully inspect the tyres for damage.

Tyre Repair If a tyre is punctured or damaged, you should replace it, not repair it. As discussed below, a tyre that is repaired, either temporarily or permanently, will have lower speed and performance limits than a new tyre. A temporary repair, such as an external tubeless tyre plug, may not be safe for normal speeds and riding conditions. If a temporary or emergency repair is made to a tyre, you should ride slowly and cautiously to a dealer and have the tyre replaced. If possible, you should not carry a passenger or cargo until a new tyre is installed.

Even if a tyre is professionally repaired with a permanent internal patch plug, it will not be as good as a new tyre. You should not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph) for the first 24 hours, or 130 km/h (80 mph) at any time thereafter. In addition, you may not be able to safely carry as much weight as with a ne w t yre. T her ef ore, w e strongly recommend that you replace a damaged tyre. If you choose to have a tyre repaired, be sure the wheel is balanced before you ride.

42

10/02/17 16:54:59 32KWN600_053

Tyre Replacement The tyres that came on your scooter were designed to match the perf ormance capabilities of your scooter and provide the best combination of handling, braking, durability and comfort.

The recommended tyres for your scooter are: Front: 90/90-14M/C 46P IRC SS-560F Rear: 100/90-14M/C 57P IRC SS-560R

Installing improper tyres on your scooter can affect handling and stability. This can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed. Always use the size and type of tyres recommended in this owners manual.

Type: bias-ply, tubeless Whenever you replace a tyre, use one that is equivalent to the original and be sure the wheel is balanced after the new tyre is installed.

43

10/02/17 16:55:03 32KWN600_054

Important Safety Reminders Do not install a tube inside a tubeless tyre on this scooter. Excessive heat build-up can cause the tube to burst. Use only tubeless tyres on this scooter. The rims are designed for tubeless tyres, and during hard acceleration or braking, a tube-type tyre could slip on the rim and cause the tyre to rapidly deflate.

PARKING 1. After stopping the scooter turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and remove the key. 2. Use the center stand to support the scooter while parked. Park the scooter on firm, level ground to prevent it from falling over. If you must park on a slight incline, aim the front of the scooter uphill to reduce the possibility of rolling off the center stand or overturning.

3. Lock the steering to help prevent theft (page 50 ). 4. Close the shutter to help prevent theft (page 51 ). The exhaust pipe and muffler become very hot during operation and remain sufficiently hot to inflict burns if touched even after shutting off the engine. Make sure flammable materials such as dry grass or leaves do not come in contact with the exhaust system when parking your scooter.

MAINTENANCE
THE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTENANCE A well-maintained scooter is essential for safe, economical and trouble-free riding. It will also help reduce air pollution. To help you properly care for your scooter, the following pages include a Maintenance Schedule and a Maintenance Record for regularly scheduled maintenance. These instructions are based on the assumption that the scooter will be used exclusively for its designed purpose. Sustained high speed operation or operation in unusually wet or dusty conditions will require more f requent service than specified in the Maintenance Schedule. Consult your Honda dealer f or recommendations applicable to your individual needs and use. If your scooter overturns or becomes involved in a crash, be sure your Honda dealer inspects all major parts, even if you are able to make some repairs.

Improperly maintaining this scooter or failing to correct a problem before you ride can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed. Always follow the inspection and maintenance recommendations and schedules in this owners manual.

MAINTENANCE SAFETY This section includes instructions on some important maintenance tasks. You can perform some of these tasks with the tools provided if you have basic mechanical skills. Other tasks that are more difficult and require special tools are best performed by professionals. Wheel removal should normally be handled only by a Honda technician or other qualified mechanic; instructions are included in this manual only to assist in emergency service. Some of the most important saf ety precautions follow. However, we cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not you should perform a given task.

Failure to properly follow maintenance instructions and precautions can cause you to be seriously hurt or killed. Always follow the procedures and precautions in this owners manual.

86

10/02/17 16:59:15 32KWN600_097

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or repairs. This will help eliminate several potential hazards: Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust. Be sure there is adequate ventilation whenever you operate the engine. Burns from hot parts. Let the engine and exhaust system cool before touching. Injury from moving parts. Do not run the engine unless instructed to do so. Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the tools and skills required. To help prevent the scooter from falling over, park it on a firm, level surface, using the center stand to provide support.

To reduce the possibility of a fire or explosion, be careful when working around petrol or batteries. Use only nonflammable solvent, not petrol, to clean parts. Keep cigarettes, sparks and flames away from the battery and all fuel-related parts. Remember that your Honda dealer knows your scooter best and is fully equipped to maintain and repair it. To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new Honda Genuine Parts or their equivalents for repair and replacement.

Engine Oil Engine oil quality is the chief factor affecting engine service life. Change the engine oil as specified in the maintenance schedule (page 89 ). When running in very dusty conditions, oil changes should be perf ormed more f requently than specif ied in the maintenance schedule. Please dispose of used engine oil in a manner that is compatible with the environment. We suggest you take it in a sealed container to your local recycling center or service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash or pour it on the ground or down a drain. Used engine oil may cause skin cancer if repeatedly left in contact with the skin for prolonged periods. Although this is unlikely unless you handle used oil on a daily basis, it is still advisable to thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water as soon as possible after handling used oil.

Changing the oil requires a torque wrench. If you do not have it and the necessary skill, we recommend that you have your Honda dealer perform this service. If a torque wrench is not used for this installation, see your Honda dealer as soon as possible to verify proper assembly. Change the engine oil with the engine at normal operating temperature and the scooter on its center stand to assure complete and rapid draining. Change the engine oil with the Idling Stop switch IDLING.

CLEANING
Clean your scooter regularly to protect the surface finishes and inspect for damage, wear, and oil, coolant or brake fluid leakage. Avoid cleaning products that are not specif ically designed f or scooter or automobile surfaces. They may contain harsh detergents or chemical solvents that could damage the metal, paint, and plastic on your scooter. If your scooter is still warm from recent operation, give the engine and exhaust system time to cool off. We recommend avoiding the use of high pressure water spray (typical in coinoperated car washes). Washing the scooter 1. Rinse the scooter thoroughly with cool water to remove loose dirt. 2. Clean the scooter with a sponge or soft cloth using cool water. Avoid directing water to muffler outlets and electrical parts. 3. Clean the plastic parts using a cloth or sponge dampened with a solution of mild detergent and water. Rub the soiled area gently rinsing it frequently with fresh water. Take care to keep brake fluid or chemical solvents off the scooter. They will damage the plastic and painted surfaces. The inside of the headlight lens may be clouded immediately after washing the scooter. Moisture condensation inside the headlight lens will disappear gradually by lighting the headlight in high beam.

Finishing Touches After washing your scooter, consider using a commercially-available spray cleaner/ polish or quality liquid or paste wax to finish the job. Use only a non-abrasive polish or wax made specifically for motorcycles or automobiles. Apply the polish or wax according to the instructions on the container.

Removing Road Salt Road Salt used on roads during winter and salt from seawater causes rust. Wash your scooter as follows after it has run through salty water or on roads treated with Road Salt. 1. Clean the scooter using cool water (page 124 ). Do not use warm water. This worsens the effect of the salt. 2. Dry the scooter and the surface of the metal is protected with the wax.

STORAGE GUIDE
Extended storage, such as for winter, requires that you take certain steps to reduce the effects of deterioration from non-use of the scooter. In addition, necessary repairs should be made BEFORE storing the scooter; otherwise, these repairs may be forgotten by the time the scooter is removed from storage. STORAGE 1. Change the engine oil. 2. Make sure the cooling system is filled with a 50/50 % antifreeze solution. 3. Empty the fuel tank into an approved petrol container using a commercially available hand siphon or an equivalent method. Spray the inside of the tank with an aerosol rust-inhibiting oil. Reinstall the fuel fill cap on the tank.

Petrol is highly flammable and explosive. You can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel. Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away. Refuel only outdoors. Wipe up spills immediately.

4. To prevent rusting in the cylinder, perform the following: Remove the spark plug cap from the spark plug. Using tape or string, secure the cap to any convenient plastic body part so that it is positioned away from the spark plug. Remove the spark plug from the engine and store it in a safe place. Do not connect the spark plug to the spark plug cap. Pour a tablespoon (1520 cm ) of clean engine oil into the cylinder and cover the spark plug hole with a piece of cloth. Crank the engine several times to distribute the oil. Reinstall the spark plug and spark plug cap.

5. Remove the battery. Store in an area protected from freezing temperatures and direct sunlight. Slow charge the battery once a month. 6. Wash and dry the scooter. Wax all painted surfaces. Coat chrome with rustinhibiting oil. 7. Inflate the tyres to their recommended pressures. Place the scooter on blocks to raise both tyres off the ground. 8. Cover the scooter (dont use plastic or other coated materials) and store in an unheated area, free of dampness with a minimum of daily temperature variation. Do not store the scooter in direct sunlight.

TAKING CARE OF THE UNEXPECTED

IF YOU CRASH Personal safety is your first priority after a crash. 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 f or 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 parts 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.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER
This scooter is equipped with a catalytic converter. The catalytic converter contains precious metals that serve as catalysts, promoting chemical reactions to convert the exhaust gasses without affecting the metals. The catalytic converter acts on HC, CO, and NOx. A replacement unit must be an original Honda part or its equivalent. The catalytic converter must operate at a high temperature for the chemical reactions to take place. It can set on fire any combustible materials that come near it. Park your scooter away from high grasses, dry leaves, or other flammables. A defective catalytic converter contributes to air pollution, and can impair your engines performance. Follow these guidelines to protect your scooters catalytic converter. Always use unleaded petrol. Even a small amount of leaded petrol can contaminate the catalyst metals, making the catalytic converter ineffective. 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.
