VEHICLE WASHING
Cleaning the vehicle regularly can slow down the color fading of its body and make it easier to check if there
is any damage and any oil leakage.
CAUTION
Washing the motorcycle with over-pressurized water may cause damage to some of its components.
Therefore, do not use a pressure washer to clean the vehicle. The following parts should be cleaned
using low pressure water:
-Wheel hub
-Exhaust pipe
-Fuel tank and lower portion of cushion
-Carburetor
-Ignition Switch
-Air filter
1. After pre-wiping, the vehicle should be washed with clean water to remove dirty residues so as to
prevent corrosion. Plastic subassemblies should be cleaned by wiping with a cloth or foam soaked in
neutral detergent solution, followed by washing with clean water.
2. After the cleaned vehicle is air dried, grease the chain and run the engine at idling speed for a few
minutes.
3. Prior to driving, carefully check the braking system repeatedly and repair or adjust it if necessary.
