Clean the Mat Painted Surface
Using plenty of water, clean the mat painted surface
with a soft cloth or sponge. Dry with a soft, clean cloth.
Use neutral detergent to clean mat painted surface.
Do not use waxes containing compounds.
Clean the Seat
Due to the top coat design, the seat surface tends to
catch and trap dirt or dust in its texture.
Using plenty of water, clean the seat with a sponge
and mild detergent.
After washing, dry with a soft, clean cloth.

STORAGE GUIDE

Extended storage, such as for winter, requires
that you take certain steps to reduce the effects of
deterioration from non-use of the motorcycle. In
addition, necessary repairs should be made BEFORE
storing the motorcycle; otherwise, these repairs may
be forgotten by the time the motorcycle is removed
from storage.

Storage

1. Change the engine oil and clean the filter screen.
2. Drain the fuel tank and carburetor into an
approved petrol container. Reinstall the fuel fill
cap on the tank.
To assure proper performance after storage lasting
more than one month, it is important to drain the
carburetor.
