Info
Use warm water containing normal motorcycle cleaner and a soft sponge.
Never apply motorcycle cleaner to a dry vehicle; always rinse the vehicle with
water first.
If the vehicle was operated in road salt, clean it with cold water. Warm water
would enhance the corrosive effects of salt.
– After rinsing the motorcycle with a gentle spray of water, allow it to dry thoroughly.
– Remove the closure of the exhaust system.
Warning
Danger of accidents Moisture and dirt impair the brake system.
– Brake carefully several times to dry out and remove dirt from the brake lin-
ings and the brake discs.

Info
The heat produced causes water at inaccessible locations in the engine and on
the brake system to evaporate.
– Push back the protection caps of the handlebar controls to allow any water that has
penetrated to evaporate.
– After the motorcycle has cooled off, lubricate all moving parts and bearings.
– Clean the chain. ( p. 102)
