Cleaning of the Exhaust
System
All parts of the exhaust system of your
motorcycle must be cleaned regularly to
avoid a deterioration of its appearance.
These instructions can be applied to
chrome, brushed stainless steel and
carbon fibre components; matt painted
exhaust systems should be cleaned as
above, noting the care instructions in
the Matt Paintwork section previously.
Note:
• The exhaust system must be cool
before washing to prevent water
spotting.
Washing
Wash as previously described.
Make sure that no soap or water enters
the exhausts.
Drying
Dry the exhaust system as far as
possible with a soft cloth or chamois
leather. Do not run the engine to dry
the system or spotting will occur.

When the exhaust system is dry, apply

tection spray onto the surface, following
the manufacturer's instructions.

this will both protect and enhance the
system's appearance.
