CLEANING
Clean your motorcycle regularly to protect the surface
finishes and inspect for damage, wear and oil 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).
High pressure washer spray can damage certain parts
of your motorcycle. If you use a high pressure washer,
avoid spraying the following areas:

Wheel hubs

Muffler outlet

Under seat

Engine stop button

Under fuel tank

Drive chain

Carburetor

Ignition switch

Brake master cylinders
NOTICE
High pressure water (or air) can damage certain parts
of the motorcycle.
