Caring for Your Motorcycle
Frequent cleaning and polishing is important to
ensure the life of your Honda. A clean
motorcycle makes it easier to spot potential
problems.
In particular, seawater and salts used to prevent
ice on roads promote the formation of
corrosion. Always wash your motorcycle
thoroughly after riding on coastal or treated
roads.
Allow the engine, muffler, brakes, and other
high-temperature parts to cool before washing.
1. Rinse your motorcycle thoroughly using a
garden hose to remove loose dirt.
2. If necessary, use a sponge or a soft towel
with mild cleaner to remove road grime.
u Clean the windscreen, headlight lens,
panels, and other plastic components with
extra care to avoid scratching them. Avoid
directing water into the air cleaner,
muffler, and electrical parts.
3. Thoroughly rinse your motorcycle with plenty
of clean water and dry with a soft, clean
cloth.
4. After the motorcycle dries, lubricate any
moving parts.
u Make sure that no lubricant spills onto the
brakes or tyres. Brake discs or pads
contaminated with oil suffer greatly
reduced braking effectiveness and can
lead to a crash.
5. Lubricate the drive chain immediately after
washing and drying the motorcycle.
6. Apply a coat of wax to prevent corrosion.
u Avoid products that contain harsh
detergents or chemical solvents. These can
damage the metal, paint, and plastic on
your motorcycle.
Keep the wax clear of the tyres and brakes.
u If your motorcycle has any matte painted
parts, do not apply a coat of wax to the
matte painted surface.
