Royal Enfield Himalayan 117
WASHING PROCEDURE
Once the motorcycle has been ridden in salty condi-
tions (i.e. during winter in places where road salt is
used) or near coastal areas it is recommended to wash
your motorcycle with cold water after the ride to pre-
vent corrosion or rust build-up. Please do not use
warm water for washing as it may damage the motor-
cycle due to chemical reaction with the salt. After
washing process once the motorcycle is completely
dry it is recommended to apply anti corrosion spray on
all the metal and chrome plated areas to protect the
parts from corrosion.
It is recommended not to apply the anti-corrosion
spray on the brake discs.
Do not use petrol, brake oil or other flammable liquids
to clean or wash on electronic parts.

pler joints, silencer tail pipe, radiator lubrication points
like steering cone kit, brake pedal, wheel bearings,
