XR250 TORNADO
Welcome
The motorcycle presents you a challenge to master the machine, a challenge to adventure. You ride through the
wind, linked to the road by a vehicle that responds to your commands as no other does. Unlike an automobile,
there is no metal cage around you. Like an airplane, a pre-ride inspection and regular maintenance are
essential to your safety. Your reward is freedom.
To meet the challenges safely, and to enjoy the adventure fully, you should become thoroughly familiar with
this owner's manual BEFORE YOU RIDE THE MOTORCYCLE.
As you read this manual, you will find information that is preceded by a NOTICE symbol. This information is
intended to help you avoid damage to your motorcycle, other property, or the environment.
When service is required, see your Honda dealer that knows your motorcycle best and have skilled technicians
trained by the factory and tools to perform high quality services.
Pleasant riding, and thank you for choosing a Honda!
