Finishing Touches
After washing your motorcycle, consider using a
commercially-available spray cleaner/polish or quality
liquid or paste wax to finish the job. Use only a non-
abrasive polish or wax made specifically for
motorcycles or automobiles. Apply the polish or wax
according to the instructions on the container.
If a surface on your motorcycle is chipped or
scratched, your Honda dealer has touch-up paint to
match your motorcycle's colour. Be sure to use your
motorcycle's colour code (page 43) when you buy
touch-up paint.
Removing Road Salt
The salt contained in the road surface freezing
prevention medicine which a road was sprayed with in
winter, and the seawater becomes the cause which
rust occurs in.
Wash your motorcycle by the following point after it
runs through such a place.
1. Clean the motorcycle using cool water (page 65).
Do not use warm water.
This worsens the effect of the salt.
2. Dry the motorcycle and the surface of the metal is
protected with the wax.

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.
2. Lubricate the drive chain (page 53).
3. Empty the fuel tank into an approved petrol
container using a commercially available hand
siphon or an equivalent method. Spray the inside of
the tank with an aerosol rust-inhibiting oil.
Reinstall the fuel fill cap on the tank.
If storage will last more than one month, carburetor
draining is very important, to assure proper
performance after storage.
