CLEANING AND STORAGE
174
Cleaning
Frequent,
regular
cleaning
is
an
essential part of the maintenance of
your motorcycle. If regularly cleaned,
the appearance will be preserved for
many years.
Cleaning with cold water containing an
automotive cleaner is essential at all
times but particularly so after exposure
to sea breezes, sea water, dusty or
muddy roads and in winter when roads
are treated for ice and snow.
Do not use household detergent, as the
use of such products will lead to
premature corrosion.
Although, under the terms of your
motorcycle warranty, cover is provided
against the corrosion of certain items,
the owner is expected to observe this
reasonable advice which will safeguard
against corrosion and enhance the
appearance of the motorcycle.
Preparation for Washing
Before washing, precautions must be
taken to keep water off the following
places.
Rear opening of the exhausts: Cover
with a plastic bag secured with rubber
bands.
Clutch and brake levers, switch housings
on the handlebar: Cover with plastic
bags.
Ignition switch and steering lock: Cover
the keyhole with tape.
Remove any items of jewellery such as
rings, watches, zips or belt buckles,
which may scratch or otherwise damage
painted or polished surfaces.
Use separate cleaning sponges or
cleaning cloths for washing painted/
polished surfaces and chassis areas.
Chassis areas (such as wheels and
under mudguards) will be exposed to
more abrasive road grime and dust,
which may then scratch painted or
polished surfaces, if the same sponge or
cleaning cloths are used.
