After Washing

Remove the plastic bags and tape, and clear
the air intakes.
Lubricate the pivots, bolts and nuts.
Test the brakes before motorcycle operation.
Start the engine and run it for 5 minutes.
Ensure adequate ventilation for the exhaust
fumes.
Use a dry cloth to absorb water residue. Do
not allow water to stand on the machine as
this will lead to corrosion.
Warning
Never wax or lubricate the brake discs.
Loss of braking power and an accident
could result. Clean the disc with a
proprietary brand of oil-free brake disc
cleaner.

soap and water.
