Info
Use warm water containing normal motorcycle cleaner and a soft sponge.
Never apply motorcycle cleaner to a dry vehicle; always rinse the vehicle with
water first.
If the vehicle was operated in road salt, clean it with cold water. Warm water
would enhance the corrosive effects of salt.
–
After rinsing the motorcycle with a gentle spray of water, allow it to dry thoroughly.
–
Remove the closure of the exhaust system.

Reduced braking efficiency due to a wet or dirty brake sys-
tem.
–
Clean or dry a dirty or wet brake system by riding and braking gently.
–
After cleaning, ride the vehicle a short distance until the engine warms up.

The heat produced causes water at inaccessible locations in the engine and on
the brake system to evaporate.
–
Push back the sleeves of the handlebar controls to allow any water that has penetrated
to evaporate.
