CLEANING
surfaces and use a clean applicator with a non-abrasive polish to avoid scratching your
paint.
5. Wipe off gasoline immediately. The chemicals and additives in gasoline can dull or fog
your paint if allowed to remain on the paint.
6. Use only approved cleaners on your paint. Harsh cleaners may work great for removing
road tar but also may damage your paint.
6. Avoid constant contact (rubbing) with any clothing or travel gear on your paint.
DO NOT WASH YOUR MOTORCYCLE WITH COOL WATER WHEN THE PAINT HAS BEEN HEATED
BY DIRECT SUNLIGHT. THIS CAN BREAK THE BOND BETWEEN THE PAINT AND THE METAL
SURFACE. DO NOT APPLY POWER WASH DIRECTLY ON THE PAINTED SURFACES AS THIS CAN
DAMAGE THE PAINT.
STORAGE
Proper long term storage is important for trouble-free operation of your
motorcycle. If you do not wish to perform these tasks, contact a Big Dog Motorcycles
Dealer or Authorized Service Center. They have trained technicians who can complete the
work according to Service Manual procedures.
