SCOOTER CARE AND STORAGE
7-3
After cleaning
1. Dry the scooter with a chamois
or an absorbing cloth.
2. Use a chrome polish to shine
chrome, aluminum and stain-
less-steel parts, including the
exhaust system. (Even the ther-
mally induced discoloring of
stainless-steel exhaust systems
can be removed through polish-
ing.)
3. To prevent corrosion, it is rec-
ommended to apply a corrosion
protection spray on all (even
chrome- and nickel-plated)
metal surfaces.
4. Use spray oil as a universal
cleaner to remove any remain-
ing dirt.
5. Touch up minor paint damage
caused by stones, etc.
6. Wax all painted surfaces.
7. Let the scooter dry completely
before storing it or covering it.

on the brakes and tires. If necessary,
clean the brake discs and linings
with a regular brake disc cleaner or
acetone, and wash the tires with
warm water and mild soap. Then,
carefully test the scooter for its brak-
ing performance and cornering be-
havior.
