Washing Your Motorcycle with a Mild
Detergent
Appearance Care
Servicing Your Honda
High pressure water (or air) can damage
certain parts of your motorcycle.
We recommend the use of a garden hose to
wash your motorcycle. High pressure
washers (like those at coin-operated car
washes) can damage certain parts of your
motorcycle. If you use a high pressure
washer, avoid spraying the following areas:
Rinse your motorcycle thoroughly with cool
water to remove loose dirt.
Fill a bucket with cool water. Mix in a mild,
neutral detergent, such as dish washing
liquid or a product made especially for
washing motorcycles or automobiles.
Wash your motorcycle with a sponge or a
soft towel. As you wash, check for heavy
grime. If necessary, use a mild cleaner/
degreaser to remove the grime.
After washing, rinse your motorcycle
thoroughly with plenty of clean water to
remove any residue.
