Owner's Manual
ATTENTION
Polishing compounds or other polishing products
will damage the paint.
5. Immediately after washing the motorcycle, lubricate
the drive chain and throttle, choke and clutch
cables. Apply rust-inhibiting spray to the rims,
spokes, shock absorber, exhaust (also inner part)
and other chromed parts.
NOTE
Apply rust-inhibiting spray only with the cold engine.
The excess can be removed after 24 hours.
6. Turn the engine on and let it run for a few minutes.
WARNING
• • • • • Do not apply the rust-inhibiting spray to the area
close to the brake system.
• • • • • Braking efficiency may be temporarily impaired
immediately after washing the motorcycle.
Anticipate longer stopping distance to avoid a
possible accident.
• • • • • Test the brakes before riding the motorcycle. It
may be necessary to apply them a few times to
restore their normal condition.
STORAGE GUIDE
ATTENTION
The battery is charged when the charging system is
operating during motorcycle use under normal
conditions. For a longer battery service life,
we recommend riding the motorcycle frequently
(at least once a week).
WARNING
Allowing the engine to idle for more than 5 minutes
with the motorcycle stationary at normal operating
temperature may cause exhaust pipe discoloration.
The engine is air-cooled and heat transfer with the
environment is necessary.
Extended storage, such as for winter, requires that
you take certain steps to reduce the effects of
deterioration from motorcycle inactivity.
Necessary repairs should be performed BEFORE
storing the motorcycle. Otherwise these repairs may
be forgotten by the time the motorcycle is removed
from storage.
