Seat Care
Caution
Use of chemicals or high pressure
spray washers is not recommended for
cleaning the seat.
Using chemicals or high pressure spray
washers may damage the seat cover.
To help maintain its appearance, clean
the seat using a sponge or cleaning
cloth with soap and water.
Windscreen Cleaning (if fitted)
Warning
Never attempt to clean the windscreen
while the motorcycle is in motion as
releasing the handlebars may cause
loss of motorcycle control and an
accident.
Operation of the motorcycle with a
damaged or scratched windscreen will
reduce the rider's forward vision. Any
such reduction in forward vision is
dangerous and may lead to loss of
motorcycle control and an accident.
Caution
Corrosive chemicals such as battery
acid will damage the windscreen. Never
allow corrosive chemicals to contact
the windscreen.
Caution
Products such as window cleaning
fluids, insect remover, rain repellent,
scouring compounds, petrol or strong
solvents such as alcohol, acetone,
carbon tetrachloride, etc. will damage
the windscreen.
Never allow these products to contact
the windscreen.
Clean the windscreen with a solution of
mild soap or detergent and cold water.
After cleaning, rinse well and then dry
with a soft, lint‑free cloth.
If the transparency of the windscreen is
reduced by scratches or oxidation which
cannot be removed, the windscreen
must be replaced.
