CLEANING

Clean your motorcycle regularly to protect the surface
finishes and inspect for damage, wear, and oil or
brake fluid leakage.
Avoid cleaning products that are not specifically
designed for motorcycle or automobile surfaces.
They may contain harsh detergents or chemical
solvents that could damage the metal, paint, and
plastic on your motorcycle.
If your motorcycle is still warm from recent operation,
give the engine and exhaust system time to cool off.
We recommend avoiding the use of high pressure
water spray (typical in coin-operated car washes).
NOTICE
High pressure water (or air) can damage certain parts
of the motorcycle.
Park in a shady area. Washing your motorcycle in
bright sunlight may cause the finish to fade because
water droplets intensify the sun's brightness. Spotting
is also more likely because surface water can dry
before you have time to wipe it off.
Do not direct water at the air intake. The water could
enter the air cleaner or be drawn into the throttle body.
After washing, inspect for the crankcase breather
drain tube. If water is in the tube, clean the crankcase
breather tube plug (page 60).
