Never raise the vehicle on your own, even if a gear is engaged.
Fuel can leak out of the fuel tank.
– Before you clean the vehicle, seal the exhaust system to prevent penetration by water.
– First remove coarse dirt particles with a gentle water spray.
– Spray very dirty areas with a normal motorcycle cleaner and then clean with a paintbrush.
