5. Dry your motorcycle with a chamois or
a soft towel. Leaving water on the
surface to air dry can cause dulling and
water spots. As you dry, inspect for
chips and scratches.
6. Start the engine and let it idle for
several minutes. The engine heat will
help dry moist areas.
7. As a precaution, ride your motorcycle at
a slow speed and apply the brakes
several times. This will help dry the
brakes and restore normal braking
performance.
If the inside of the headlight lens
appears clouded immediately after
washing, it should clear after a few
minutes of riding.
