After Washing
Warning
Never wax or lubricate the brake discs.
Loss of braking power and an accident
could result. Clean the disc with a
proprietary brand of oil-free brake disc
cleaner.
Remove the plastic bags and tape, and
clear the air intakes.
Lubricate the pivots, bolts and nuts.
Test the brakes before motorcycle
operation.
Use a dry cloth or chamois leather to
absorb water residue. Do not allow
water to stand on the motorcycle as
this will lead to corrosion.
Start the engine and run it for 5
minutes. Make sure that there is
adequate ventilation for the exhaust
fumes.
Care of Gloss Paintwork
Gloss paintwork should be washed and
dried as described above, then
protected using a high quality
automotive polish. Always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and repeat
regularly to maintain your motorcycle’s
appearance.
