Storage
Always store the vehicle in a cool, dry
place. If necessary, protect it against
dust with a porous cover. Be sure the
engine and the exhaust system are
cool before covering the vehicle. If the
vehicle often sits for weeks at a time be-
tween uses, the use of a quality fuel
stabilizer (Fuel Med RX) is recom-
mended after each fill-up.
NOTICE
ECA21170
Storing the vehicle in a poorly
ventilated room or covering it
with a tarp, while it is still wet,
will allow water and humidity to
seep in and cause rust.
To prevent corrosion, avoid
damp cellars, stables (because
of the presence of ammonia)
and areas where strong chemi-
cals are stored.
Long term storage
Before storing the vehicle long term (60
days or more):
1. Make all necessary repairs and
perform any outstanding mainte-
nance.
2. Follow all instructions in the Care
section of this chapter.
3. Fill up the fuel tank, adding fuel
stabilizer according to product in-
structions. Run the engine for 5
minutes to distribute treated fuel
through the fuel system.
4. For vehicles equipped with a fuel
cock: Turn the fuel cock lever to
the off position.
5. For vehicles with a carburetor: To
prevent fuel deposits from building
up, drain the fuel in the carburetor
float chamber into a clean contain-
er. Retighten the drain bolt and
pour the fuel back into the fuel
tank.
6. Use a quality engine fogging oil
(YAMALUBE Stor-Rite Engine
Fogging Oil) according to product
instructions to protect internal en-
gine components from corrosion. If
engine fogging oil is not available,
perform the following steps for
each cylinder:
a. Remove the spark plug cap
and spark plug.
b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine oil
into the spark plug bore.
c. Install the spark plug cap onto
the spark plug, and then place
the spark plug on the cylinder
head so that the electrodes are
grounded. (This will limit spark-
ing during the next step.)
d. Turn the engine over several
times with the starter. (This will
coat the cylinder wall with oil.)
WARNING! To prevent dam-
age or injury from sparking,
make sure to ground the
spark plug electrodes while
turning the engine
over.

e. Remove the spark plug cap
from the spark plug, and then
install the spark plug and the
spark plug cap.
7. Lubricate all control cables, pivots,
levers and pedals, as well as the
sidestand and centerstand (if
equipped).
8. Check and correct the tire air pres-
sure, and then lift the vehicle so
