Servicing Your Honda
69
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 19.
Frequent cleaning and polishing will keep your
Honda looking newer longer. Frequent cleaning
also identifies you as an owner who values your
CR. A clean CR is also easier to inspect and
service.
While you’re cleaning, be sure to look for
damage, wear, and gasoline or oil leaks.
General Recommendations
• To clean your CR you may use:
– water
– a mild, neutral detergent and water
– a mild spray and wipe cleaner/polisher
– a mild spray and rinse cleaner/degreaser and
water
• Avoid products that contain harsh detergents
or chemical solvents that could damage the
metal, paint, and plastic on your CR or
discolor the seat and decals.
• If your CR is still warm from recent
operation, give the engine and exhaust system
time to cool off.
• We recommend the use of a garden hose to
wash your CR. High pressure washers (like
those at coin-operated car washes) can
damage certain parts of your CR. The force
of water under extreme pressure can penetrate
the dust seals of the suspension pivot points
and steering head bearings-driving dirt inside
and needed lubrication out.
• If you use a high pressure washer, avoid
spraying the following areas:
wheel hubs
expansion chamber outlet
under seat
engine stop button
brake master cylinders
under fuel tank
drive chain
carburetor
front fork dust seal
steering head bearings
suspension pivot points
(1) steering head bearings
(2) suspension pivot points
High pressure water (or air) can damage
certain parts of your CR.
You may use Pro Honda Hondabrite, a
multi-surface cleaner/degreaser, to remove both
dirt and petroleum-based grime from paint, alloy,
plastic, and rubber surfaces. Wet any heavy
deposits with water first. Then spray on the
Hondabrite and rinse with a garden horse at full
pressure. Stubborn deposits may require a quick
wipe with a sponge.
Washing Your Motorcycle with a Mild
Detergent
1. Rinse your CR thoroughly with cool water to
remove loose dirt.
2. Fill a bucket with cool water. Mix in a mild,
neutral detergent, such as dish washing
liquid or a product made especially for
washing motorcycles or automobiles.
3. Wash your CR with a sponge or a
soft towel. As you wash, check for heavy
grime. If necessary, use a mild
cleaner/degreaser to remove the grime.
Do not use steel wool to clean the frame as it
could damage or discolor the frame surface.
Muffler stain remover (Scotch Brite Hand Pad
#7447 – maroon) is for removing stains on the
non-coated aluminum frame only.
4. After washing, rinse your CR thoroughly with
plenty of clean water to remove any residue.
5. Dry your CR with a chamois or a
soft towel.
6. Lubricate the drive chain to prevent rusting.
7. Start the engine and let it idle for several
minutes. The engine heat will help dry moist
areas.
8. As a precaution, ride at a slow speed and
apply the brakes several times. This will help
dry the brakes and restore normal braking
performance.
