Cleaning and Storage

Protect Engine Components

1. Change the engine oil (see "Change Engine Oil and Oil Filter" page 74). You do not need to replace
the oil filter at this time, but you must replace the oil filter when you remove the motorcycle from
storage.
Caution
Carbon deposits, normally suspended in engine oil that is in service, settle on internal engine components
during storage. Settled carbon deposits can cause engine damage.
2. Using pressurized air, blow any debris from the area around each spark plug.
WARNING
Wear face protection when using pressurized air.
3. Remove the spark plugs (see "Check or Replace Spark Plugs" page 101). Pour one tablespoon of
clean motor oil into each spark plug hole.
4. Connect the spark plugs to the spark plug wires and ground the spark plugs to the engine. With the
main switch in the On position, the stop/run switch set to Run, and the transmission in neutral, press
the electric starter button to crank the engine a few times. This procedure inhibits corrosion by
coating the cylinder walls with the oil you poured in the spark plug holes.
5. Set the main switch to the Off position and reinstall the spark plugs.

Inflate Tires

Inflate the tires to normal pressure.
