If the motorcycle is not being used for an extended length of time, additional measures are recommended.
Before storing the motorcycle, check all parts for function and wear. If service, repairs, or replacements are neces-
sary, you should do this during the storage period (less workshop overload). This allows you to avoid long waiting
periods when the next season starts.

Info
Do not use non-porous materials since they prevent humid-

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 the
exhaust system to rust.
