Caring for Your Motorcycle

Caring for Your Motorcycle
Frequent cleaning and polishing is important to
ensure the life of your Honda. A clean
motorcycle makes it easier to spot potential
problems.
In particular, seawater and salts used to prevent
ice on roads promote the formation of
corrosion. Always wash your motorcycle
thoroughly after riding on coastal or treated
roads.
Washing
Allow the engine, muffler, brakes, and other
high-temperature parts to cool before washing.
Rinse your motorcycle thoroughly using a
1.
low pressure garden hose to remove loose
dirt.
If necessary, use a sponge or a soft towel
2.
with mild cleaner to remove road grime.
Clean the headlight lens, panels, and
u
other plastic components with extra care
to avoid scratching them.
