Removing Road Salt
Road Salt used on roads during winter
and salt from seawater causes rust.
Wash your motorcycle as follows after it
has run through salty water or on roads
treated with Road Salt.
1.
Clean the motorcycle using cool water
(page
119
).
Do not use warm water.
This worsens the effect of the salt.
2.
Dry the motorcycle and make sure the
metal is protected with the wax.
Exhaust Pipe and Muffler Maintenance
When the exhaust pipe and muffler are
painted, do not use a commercially available
abrasive kitchen cleaning compound. Use a
neutral detergent to clean the painted
surface on the exhaust pipe and muffler. If
you are not sure if your exhaust pipe and
muffler are painted, contact your dealer.
Clean the Seat
Due to the top coat design, the seat surface
tends to catch and trap dirt or dust in its
texture.
Using plenty of water, clean the seat with a
sponge and mild detergent.
After washing, dry with a soft, clean cloth.
