Clean the motorcycle
To preserve the finish of metal parts and paintwork,
wash and clean your motorcycle at regular intervals
according to the road conditions you ride in. Use
specific products only. Prefer biodegradable
products. Avoid harsh detergents or solvents.
Only use water and neutral soap to clean the Plexiglas
and the seat.
Periodically manually clean all aluminum
components. Use special detergents, suitable for
aluminum parts FREE of abrasives or caustic soda.
Note
Do not use sponges with abrasive parts or steel
wool; only use soft cloths.
In any case, the Warranty does not apply to
motorcycles whenever poor maintenance status is
ascertained.

Important
Do not wash your motorcycle right after use.
When the motorcycle is still hot, water drops will
evaporate faster and spot hot surfaces.
Never clean the motorcycle using hot or high-
pressure water jets.
Cleaning the motorcycle with a high pressure water
jet may lead to seizure or serious faults in the front
fork, wheel hub assembly, electric system, headlight
(fogging), front fork seals, air inlets or exhaust
mufflers, with resulting loss of compliance with
safety requirements.
Clean off stubborn dirt or exceeding grease from
engine parts using a degreasing agent. Be sure to
avoid contact with drive parts (chain, sprockets, etc.).
Rinse with warm water and dry all surfaces with
chamois leather.
Attention
Braking performance may be impaired
immediately after washing the motorcycle. Never
grease or lubricate the brake disks. Loss of braking
and further accidents may occur. Clean the disks with
an oil-free solvent.
