Before storing the motorcycle, check all parts for function and wear. If service, repairs or replacements are necessary, you
should do this during the storage period (less workshop overload). In this way, you can avoid long workshop waiting times at the

warm up properly, the water vapor produced during combustion condenses
and causes valves and exhaust system to rust.
