CLEANING
Washing and Drying the Motorcycle
Before washing the motorcycle, make sure the exhaust pipes are not hot. Cover each exhaust pipe opening with a
plastic bag and attach the bag to the pipe with a strong rubber band. To prevent contamination from water, check
that the spark plugs, spark plug wire caps, oil fill cap, and fuel caps are properly seated.
1. Park the motorcycle in the shade to prevent water spotting.
2. The engine cases are painted. If you choose to use a degreaser, follow the degreaser manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Rinse off as much dirt and mud as possible with water running at low pressure.
•
Don’t use high water pressure or high-pressure sprayers such as those found at car washes. Excessive
water pressure may allow water to seep in and deteriorate wheel bearings, brake caliper assemblies,
brake master cylinders, electrical connectors, steering head bearings, and transmission seals.
•
Electrical components may be damaged by contact with water. Do not spray or allow water to come
into contact with electrical components or connectors.
Caution
4. Wash the entire motorcycle using a soft cloth or sponge soaked in a solution of mild detergent and warm water,
applying minimal pressure as you wash. Let the detergent do the cleaning, not the pressure you apply. Excessive
washing pressure may cause dirt, sand, or other foreign materials on the motorcycle to scratch the finish. Keep
the cloth or sponge clean by rinsing it frequently, and soak it in the detergent and water solution to provide
plenty of soapy water for washing. A toothbrush or bottle brush can help you wash places that are difficult to
reach with a cloth or a sponge.
