Appearance Care
Frequent cleaning and polishing will keep your Honda looking newer longer.
Frequent cleaning also identifies you as an owner who values your motorcycle.
A clean motorcycle is also easier to inspect and service.
General Recommendations
Refer to
Safety Precautions
on page 154 .
• To clean your motorcycle, 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 motorcycle.
• If your motorcycle is still warm from recent operation, give the engine and
exhaust system time to cool off.
• Park in a shady area. Washing your motorcycle in bright sunlight may cause
the finish to fade because water droplets intensify the sun’s brightness.
Spotting is also more likely because surface water can dry before you have
time to wipe it off.
• Clean your motorcycle regularly to protect surface finishes.
• We recommend the use of a garden hose to wash your motorcycle. High
pressure washers (like those at coin-operated car washes) can damage certain
parts of your motorcycle.
The audio system is designed to be weatherproof unless it is sprayed directly
with hose.
High pressure water (or air) can damage certain parts of your motorcycle.
• After cleaning, inspect for damage, wear, and leaks (fuel, oil, coolant, brake,
and clutch fluid).
