I
Do not use non-porous materials since they prevent humidity from escap
ing, thus causing corrosion.
Avoid running the engine for a short time only. Since the engine cannot
warm up properly, the water vapor produced during combustion con
denses and causes valves and the exhaust system to rust.
Install the battery.
Remove the motorcycle from the lift stand.
Perform checks and maintenance measures when preparing for use.
Make a test ride.
