Checks and maintenance steps for winter operation
Info
If the motorcycle is used in the winter, salt can be expected on the roads. Precautions need to be taken against road salt corro-
sion.
If the vehicle was operated in road salt, clean it with cold water after riding. Warm water would enhance the corrosive effects of
salt.
