Washing
To wash the motorcycle, do the
following:
• Make sure that the motorcycle
engine is cold.
• Prepare a mixture of clean, cold
water and mild automotive cleaner.
Do not use a highly alkaline soap as
commonly found at commercial car
washes because it leaves a residue.
• Wash the motorcycle with a sponge
or soft cloth. Do not use abrasive
scouring pads or steel wool. They
will damage the finish.
• Rinse the motorcycle thoroughly
with clean, cold water.
After Washing
Warning
Never wax or lubricate the brake discs.
Always clean the brake disc with a
proprietary brand of oil-free brake disc
cleaner.
Waxed or lubricated brake discs may
cause loss of braking power and an
accident.
After washing the motorcycle, do the
following:
1. Remove the plastic bags and tape,
and clear the air intakes.
2. Lubricate the pivots, bolts and nuts.
3. Test the brakes before motorcycle
operation.
4. Use a dry cloth or chamois leather
to absorb water residue. Do
not allow water to stand on the
motorcycle as this will lead to
corrosion.
5. Start the engine and run it for
5 minutes. Make sure that there is
adequate ventilation for the exhaust
fumes.
