Page 81
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.
Unpainted Aluminium Items
•
Items such as brake and clutch levers
must be correctly cleaned to
preserve their appearance.
•
Use a proprietary brand of aluminium
cleaner which does not contain
abrasive or caustic elements.
•
Clean aluminium items regularly, in
particular after use in inclement
weather, where the components
must be hand washed and dried each
time the machine is used.
•
Warranty claims due to inadequate
maintenance will not be allowed.
Cleaning of the Exhaust System:
All parts of the exhaust system of your
motorcycle must be cleaned regularly to
avoid a deterioration of its appearance.
These instructions can be applied to black
chrome, brushed stainless steel and carbon
fibre components alike.
NOTE:
•
The exhaust system must be cool
before washing to prevent water
spotting.
Washing
•
Prepare a mixture of water and mild
soap. Do not use a high alkaline
content soap as commonly found at
commercial car washes because it
leaves a residue.
•
Wash the exhaust system with a soft
cloth.
Do not use an abrasive
scouring pad or steel wool. They will
damage the finish.
•
Rinse
the
exhaust
system
thoroughly.
•
Ensure no soap or water enters the
mufflers.
Drying
•
Dry the exhaust system completely
with a soft cloth. Do not run the
engine to dry the system or spotting
will occur.
Protecting
•
When the exhaust system is dry, rub
‘Motorex 645 Clean And Protect’
into
the surface.
CAUTION: The use of silicone
products such as WD40 will
cause discolouration of the chrome
and must not be used. Similarly, the
use of abrasive cleaners such as
Solvol Autosol will damage the
system and must not be used.
•
It is recommended that regular
protection be applied to the system as
this will both protect and enhance the
system’s appearance.
