CLEANING
Windshield Care
If your motorcycle is equipped with an optional windshield:
Wash the windshield using a soft cloth or sponge soaked in a solution of mild detergent and warm water, applying
minimal pressure as you wash. Let the detergent do the cleaning, not the pressure you apply. Excessive washing
pressure may cause dirt, sand, or other foreign materials on the windshield to scratch it. Soak the cloth or sponge in
the detergent and water solution frequently to provide plenty of soapy water for washing, and keep the cloth or
sponge clean by rinsing it frequently.
S
Minor scratches may be removed with a quality plastic polishing compound. Follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions when using plastic polishing compounds.
S
Insects, oil, tar, and tree sap may also damage the motorcycle’s finish. If normal washing does not remove these
materials, you may need to use a special cleaner. Choose a cleaner designed for use on clear plastic and follow the
manufacturer’s instructions when using special cleaners.
Do not use glass cleaners, water or soil repellents, petroleum or alcohol based cleaners, as these products can
damage the windshield.
