To preserve the finish of metal parts and paintwork,
wash and clean your motorcycle at regular
intervals, anyway according to the road conditions
you ride in.
“Especially during winter period through road salt a
continuous cleaning of the vehicle is necessary so
that remove the road salt.
<IMPORTANT>
Do not wash your motorcycle right after use.
When the motorcycle is still hot, water drops will
evaporate faster and spot hot surfaces.
Do not use high pressure water jets.
Never aim the nozzle direct at wheel bearings, front
fork seals, electric items, air inlets or exhaust pipe
ends.
Clean off stubborn dirt or exceeding grease from
engine parts using a degreasing agent.
Be sure to avoid contact with drive parts (chain,
sprockets, etc)
Rinse with warm water and dry all surfaces with
chamois leather.
Extended storage, such as for winter,
requires that you take certain steps to reduce
the effects of deterioration from non-use of
the motorcycle.
In addition, necessary repairs should be
made BEFORE storing the motorcycle;
otherwise, these repairs may be forgotten by
the time the vehicle is removed from storage.
<STORAGE>

unheated area, free of dampness with a
minimum of daily temperature variation.
Do not store the vehicle in direct sunlight.
