Appearance Care
After Cleaning Lubrication
There are some things you should do just after
washing your CRF to help prevent rust and
corrosion.
Once your CRF is clean and dry, you should
protect any bare steel from rusting by applying a
light coating of a rust-inhibitor. Lubricate the
drive chain and drive sprocket after removing and
thoroughly cleaning in solvent. Be sure the chain
is wiped clean and is dry before applying the
chain lube.
Follow the suggestions given in the pages of this
manual for lubricating items such as the brake
and clutch lever pivot points and footpeg pivot
pins.
Aluminum Frame Maintenance
Aluminum corrodes when it comes in contact
with dust, mud and road salt.
To remove stains, use Scotch-Brite Hand Pad
#7447 (maroon) or an equivalent.
Wet the pad and polish the surface using strokes
parallel to the length of the frame.
Clean the frame using a wet sponge and a mild
detergent, then rinse well with clean water. Dry
the frame with a soft clean cloth, using strokes
parallel to the length of the frame.
Do not use steel wool to clean the frame as it
could damage or discolour the frame surface.
Muffler stain remover (Scotch-Brite Hand Pad
#7447-maroon) is for removing stains on the
non-coated aluminum frame only.
Exhaust Pipe And Muffler Maintenance
The exhaust pipe and muffler is stainless steel but
may become stained by mud or dust.
To remove mud or dust, use a wet sponge and a
liquid kitchen abrasive, then rinse well with clean
water. Dry with chamois or a soft towel.
If necessary, remove heat stains by using a
commercially available fine texture compound.
Then rinse by the same manner as removing mud
or dust.
NOTICE
Condensation Control
Some condensation can form within the
transmission cavity as well. This is natural and
just one more reason you should change the
engine and transmission oil often.
