CLEANING

Clean your motorcycle regularly to protect the surface
finishes and inspect for damage, wear, and oil or brake
fluid leakage.
Avoid cleaning products that are not specifically designed
for motorcycle or automobile surfaces. They may contain
harsh detergents or chemical solvents that could damage
the metal, paint, and plastic on your motorcycle.
If your motorcycle is still warm from recent operation,
give the engine and exhaust system time to cool off.
We recommend avoiding the use of high pressure
water spray (typical in coin-operated car washes).
NOTICE
High pressure water (or air) can damage certain parts
of the motorcycle.

Washing the Motorcycle

1. Rinse the motorcycle thoroughly with cool water to
remove loose dirt.
2. Clean the motorcycle with a sponge or soft cloth
using cool water. Avoid directing water to muffler
outlets and electrical parts.
3. Clean the plastic parts using a cloth or sponge
dampened with a solution of mild detergent and
water. Rub the soiled area gently rinsing it
frequently with fresh water. Take care to keep brake
fluid or chemical solvents off the motorcycle. They
will damage the plastic and painted surfaces.
The inside of the headlight lens may be clouded
immediately after washing the motorcycle. Moisture
condensation inside the headlight lens will disappear
gradually by lighting the headlight in high beam. Run
the engine while keeping the headlight on.
