Removing Road Salt
Seawater is contained in the road near the
seaside, and the seawater becomes the
cause which rust occurs in.
Wash your motorcycle by the following
point after it runs through such a place.
1. Clean the motorcycle using cool water
(page 126 ).
Do not use warm water.
This worsens the effect of the salt.
2. Dry the motorcycle and the surface of the
metal is protected with the wax.

compounds.
After washing, rinse with plenty of water
and dry with a clean cloth.
