Use a biodegradable detergent when you wash
your motorcycle. Avoid aerosol spray cleaners
that contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) which
damage the atmosphere’s protective ozone
layer.
Put oil and other toxic wastes in approved
containers and take them to a recycling center.
Call your local or state office of public works or
environmental services to find a recycling center
in your area, and to get instructions on how to
dispose of non-recyclable wastes. Do not place
used engine oil in the trash, or pour it down a
drain or on the ground. Used oil, gasoline,
coolant, and cleaning solvents contain poisons
that can hurt refuse workers and contaminate
drinking water, lakes, rivers, and oceans.
Vehicle Identification
Number
The VIN and engine serial number uniquely
identify your motorcycle and are required in
order to register your motorcycle. They may also
be required when ordering replacement parts.
The VIN is stamped on the right side of the
steering head and also appears on the Safety
Certification Label attached to the left side of
the frame.
The engine number is stamped on the right rear
side of the crankcase.
You should record these numbers and keep
them in a safe place.
