Steps during storage 
 

For a conventional battery, check electrolyte level every month. If the fluid 

level is low, replenish it with distilled water or pure water to the highest level 
mark. (Never use electrolyte or tap water) 
 

 
Insufficient battery power may cause difficulty in engine starting. If this 

occurs, immediately recharge the battery for 15-20 hours. 

 
When a battery has whitened plates, and if it  can not be  restored even 

after recharging, it means the service life has come to an end  

 

Steps for returning a stored bike to service; 
 

1.

 

Clean the entire motorcycle.  

2.

 

Remove  the  spark  plug  and  rotate  the  engine  for  several  turns, 
before reinstalling the spark plug.  

3.

 

Reinstall the battery.  

Note

 

Make sure to connect the positive connector before the negative one.  

 

4.

 

Adjust tyre pressures 

5.

 

Lubricate all parts that require lubrication according to the manual.  

6.

 

Conduct "Check before driving" instructions as contained in the User 
manual.
