Cleaning of the Exhaust
System
All parts of the exhaust system of your
motorcycle must be cleaned regularly to
avoid a deterioration of its appearance.
These instructions can be applied to
chrome, brushed stainless steel and
carbon fibre components; matt painted
exhaust systems should be cleaned as
above, noting the care instructions in
the Matt Paintwork section previously.
Note
The exhaust system must be cool before
washing to prevent water spotting.
Washing
Wash as previously described.
Make sure that no soap or water enters
the exhausts.
Drying
Dry the exhaust system as far as
possible with a soft cloth or chamois
leather. Do not run the engine to dry
the system or spotting will occur.
Protecting
Caution
The use of products containing
silicone will cause discolouration of the
chrome and stainless steel parts and
must not be used.
The use of abrasive cleaning products
will damage the finish and must not be
used.
When the exhaust system is dry, apply
a suitable proprietary motorcycle
protection spray onto the surface,
following the manufacturer’s
instructions.
It is recommended that regular
protection be applied to the system as
this will both protect and enhance the
system's appearance.
