After Washing
Warning
Never wax or lubricate the brake discs.
Always clean the brake disc with a
proprietary brand of oil-free brake disc
cleaner.
Waxed or lubricated brake discs may
cause loss of braking power and an
accident.
After washing the motorcycle, do the
following:
1. Remove the plastic bags and tape,
and clear the air intakes.
2. Lubricate the pivots, bolts and nuts.
3. Test the brakes before motorcycle
operation.
4. Use a dry cloth or chamois leather
to absorb water residue. Do
not allow water to stand on the
motorcycle as this will lead to
corrosion.
5. Start the engine and run it for
5 minutes. Make sure that there is
adequate ventilation for the exhaust
fumes.
Care of Gloss Paintwork
Gloss paintwork should be washed
and dried as described above, then
protected using a high quality
automotive polish. Always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and repeat
regularly to maintain your motorcycle’s
appearance.
Care of Matt Paintwork
Matt paintwork requires no greater care
than that already recommended for
high gloss paintwork.
• Do not use any polish or wax on
matt paintwork.
• Do not try and polish out scratches.
Aluminium Items - not
Lacquered or Painted
Items such as brake and clutch levers,
wheels, engine covers, engine cooling
fins, upper and lower yokes and
throttle bodies on some models must
be correctly cleaned to preserve their
appearance. Please contact your dealer
if you are unsure which components on
your motorcycle are aluminium parts
not protected by paint or lacquer, and
for guidance on how to clean those
items.
Use a proprietary brand of aluminium
cleaner which does not contain abrasive
or caustic elements.
Clean aluminium items regularly,
in particular after use in inclement
weather, where the components must
be hand washed and dried each time
the machine is used.
Warranty claims due to inadequate
maintenance will not be allowed.
