Preparing for use after storage
–
Lift the motorcycle with the front lifting gear. (

Cover the motorcycle 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 exhaust system to rust.
–
Take the motorcycle off of the front wheel stand. (
–
Remove the rear of the motorcycle from the lifting gear. (
–
Install the battery.
–
Set the clock. (
