for less unsprung weight. And we
changed the ratios for better hanelling. Butwe kept on evolving.
We fought the law.
And we won.
Some laws
you don't break.
Like the law ofgravity. But we found a
way to bend it.We lowered the exhaust pipe and
the fuel tank togive our full-size
CRs a lower center ofgravity. And
we changed the seatheight and
shape so you don't have to fight
the bike either.
We cornered 't he market
on power.
W improved the porting and
e
pipe design to deliver more power
in the low and mid-.
range. So you accelerate smoothly
outof the corners.
And your starts
put you ahead
ofthe pack.
That can
pay big
dividends at
the finish.
-.
Our track record.
All ofthese changes wouldn't
meana thing if it weren't for a few
numbers. Seven national championships won in the past two
years.Topped off by our victory
in the 1988 Supercross series.And
we won with the most advanced
motocrossers ever built. The bikes
at your Honda dealer are virtually
the same as the
ones
that won.
If that doesn't
raise your blood
pressure a couple
ofnotches, don'tsee
your dealer. See your d~
operator useonly in organized,
closed-course racingevents.
Make every ride an education. 'Pros know
"
every safe rider is
a winner, and
that no rider
is ever too good.
So no matter
how long you've
been riding,
remember you
can learn from every ride.
Winners ride safely.
Don't take chances. Professional motorcyclists ride to win.
And they know they can't
win if they don't finish.
The pros also know how re.sponsible riding practices
and the proper safety equipment help them finish by
minimizing risks. They ride
accordingly, and so should you.
Use theproperequipment.
Pros always use quality helmets,
eye protection and protective
clothing, just as all motorcyclists
should. And the pros realize "
no one should ever operate any
motor vehicle while under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
Another part ofusingyour equipment properly is knowingyour
equipment. That's why you should
read your owner's manual thoroughly. And note you should never
modify your silencer. Remember
that CRs are designed for off-road
HONDA.
