CLEANING, CARE 26.1 Cleanin the motorc cle Note Material damage Components become damaged or destroyed if a pressure cleaner is used incorrectly. The high pressure forces water into the electrical components, connectors, throttle cables, and bearings, etc. Pressure which is too high causes malfunctions and destroys components. Do not direct the water jet directly on to electrical components, connectors, throttle cables or bearings.
CLEANING, CARE Checks and maintenance ste s for winter o eration Info If you use the vehicle in winter, you must expect salt on the roads. You should therefore take precautions against aggressive road salt. If the vehicle was operated in road salt, clean it with cold water after riding. Warm water would enhance the corrosive effects of salt.
