A number of precautionary measures must be taken to prevent the possible conse-
quences of prolonged lack of usage of the vehicle. Besides, it is necessary to carry
out general repairs and checks before garaging the motorcycle as one can forget to
do so afterwards.
Proceed as follows:
•
Remove the battery.
•
Wash and dry the motorcycle.
•
Apply wax polish to painted and chromed surfaces.
