for less unsprung weight. And we
changed the ratios for better handling. Butwe kept on evolving.
We fought the law.
Andwewoo. .
Some laws
you don't break.
Like the law ofgravity. Butwe 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 the market
on power.
We improved the porting and
pipe design to deliver.more power
in the low and mid- ~
range. So you accelerate smoothly
out ofthe 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 offby 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.

Make every ride an education: Pros know "
.
every safe rideris
a winner, and
that no rider
is ever toogood.
So no matter
how long you've
been riding,
remember you
can learn from every ride.
Wir1l1ers ride safely.
- Dorit takechances. Professionalmotorcyclists ride to win.
Andthey know they can't
win if they don't finish.
The pros also know how responsible riding practices
and the proper safety equipment help them finish by
minimizing risks. Theyride
accordingly, and so should you.
Use the properequipment.
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 ofalcohol or'drugs
Another part ofusing your equipment properly is knowing your
equipment. That's why you should
read yourowner's manual thor, oughly. And noteyou should never
modify your silencer. Remember
that CRs are designed for off-road
