21.1 Storage
Info
If you plan to garage the motorcycle for a longer period, perform the following steps or have them per-
formed.
Before storing the motorcycle, check all parts for function and wear. If service, repairs, or replacements
are necessary, you should do this during the storage period (less workshop overload). In this way, you can
avoid long workshop waiting times at the start of the new season.

– When refueling for the last time before taking the motorcycle

Fuel additive ( p. 172)
– Refuel. ( p. 84)
Tip
Fill the fuel tank completely as specified, using fuel
with the lowest possible ethanol content.
– Clean the motorcycle. ( p. 150)
– Change the engine oil and the oil filter, clean the oil
screens. ( p. 146)
– Check the coolant fill level and antifreeze.
– Check tire pressure. ( p. 127)
– Remove the 12-V battery. ( p. 130)
Guideline
Storage temperature of the
12-V battery without direct
sunlight
0 … 35 °C (32 … 95 °F)
– Charge the 12-V battery. ( p. 133)
– Store the vehicle in a dry location that is not subject to large
fluctuations in temperature.
– Cover the motorcycle with a tarp or cover that is permeable to
air.
Info
Do not use non-porous materials since they prevent
humidity from escaping, thus causing corrosion.
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.
