Aluminium will corrode from contact with dirt,
mud, or road salt. Clean aluminium parts
regularly and follow these guidelines to avoid
scratches:
●
Do not use stiff brushes, steel wool, or
cleaners containing abrasives.
●
Avoid riding over or scraping against curbs.
Follow these guidelines to prevent scratches
and blemishes:
●
Wash gently using a soft sponge and plenty
of water.
●
To remove stubborn stains, use diluted
detergent and rinse thoroughly with plenty of
water.
●
Avoid getting petrol, brake fluid, or
detergents on the instruments, panels, or
headlight.
The exhaust pipe and muffler are stainless steel
but may become stained by mud or dust.
To remove mud or dust, use a wet sponge and
a liquid kitchen abrasive, then rinse well with
clean water. Dry with chamois or a soft towel.
If necessary, remove heat stains by using a
commercially available fine texture compound.
Then rinse by the same manner as removing
mud or dust.
