Preparing for use after storage

Info
Husqvarna Motorcycles recommends raising the motorcycle.
–
Raise the motorcycle with a lift stand. (
–
Cover the vehicle with a tarp or similar cover that is permeable to air.
Info
Do not use non-porous materials since they prevent humidity from escaping,
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 condenses and
causes valves and the exhaust system to rust.
–
Remove the motorcycle from the lift stand. (
–
Install the battery.
–
Set the clock. (
–
Perform checks and vehicle care when preparing for use. (
–
Take a test ride.
