WARNING

EWA10950

To prevent damage or injury from
sparking, make sure to ground the
spark plug electrodes while turning
the engine over.

6. Lubricate all control cables and the

pivoting points of all levers and
pedals as well as of the side-
stand/centerstand.

7. Check and, if necessary, correct

the tire air pressure, and then lift
the motorcycle so that both of its
wheels are off the ground. Alterna-
tively, turn the wheels a little every
month in order to prevent the tires
from becoming degraded in one
spot.

8. Cover the muffler outlet with a

plastic bag to prevent moisture
from entering it.

9. Remove the battery and fully

charge it. Store it in a cool, dry
place and charge it once a month.
Do not store the battery in an ex-
cessively cold or warm place [less
than 0 °C (30 °F) or more than 30

°C (90 °F)]. For more information
on storing the battery, see page
6-33.

NOTE:

Make any necessary repairs before
storing the motorcycle.
