VEHICLE WASHING
Cleaning the vehicle regularly can slow down the color fading of its body and make it easier
to check if there is any damage and any oil leakage.
1. After pre-wiping, the vehicle should be washed with clean water to remove dirty residues
so as to prevent corrosion. Plastic subassemblies should be cleaned by wiping with a
cloth or foam soaked in neutral detergent solution, followed by washing with clean water.
2. After the cleaned vehicle is air dried, grease the chain and run the engine at idling speed
for a few minutes.
3. Prior to driving, carefully check the braking system repeatedly and repair or adjust it if
necessary.
CAUTION
Washing the motorcycle with over-pressurized water may cause damage to some of its
components. Therefore, do use a pressure washer to clean the vehicle. The following
parts should be cleaned using low pressure water:
— Wheel hub
— Exhaust pipe
— Fuel tank and lower portion of cushion
— Carburetor
— Head lock and ignition switch
— Meters
