Refer to Safety Precautions on page 54 .
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 color.
Be sure to use your motorcycle's color
code (page 174) when you buy touch-up
paint.

Servicing Your Honda
If the frame has a chip that exposes the
metal, first apply primer (to prevent
corrosion) and then apply the touch-up
paint. Several thin layers of touch-up paint
are better than one thick coat.
