Maintenance and Adjustment
• It is recommended that regular
protection be applied to the system
as this will both protect and enhance
the system's appearance.
Accessory Windscreen Cleaning
Clean the windscreen with a solution of mild
soap or detergent and lukewarm water. After
cleaning, rinse well and then dry with a soft,
lint free cloth.
If the transparency of the windscreen is
reduced by scratches or oxidation which
cannot be removed, the windscreen must be
replaced.
Caution
The use of products containing silicone will
cause discolouration of the chrome and
must not be used. Similarly, the use of
abrasive cleaners and polishes will damage
the system and must not be used.
Caution
Products such as window cleaning fluids,
insect remover, rain repellent, scouring
compound, petrol or strong solvents such
as alcohol, acetone, carbon tetrachloride,
etc. will damage the windscreen. Never
allow these products to contact the
windscreen.
Warning
Never attempt to clean the windscreen
while the motorcycle is in motion as
releasing the handlebars may cause loss of
vehicle control and an accident.
Operation of the motorcycle with a
damaged or scratched windscreen will
reduce the rider’s forward vision. Any such
reduction in forward vision is dangerous
and may lead to an accident causing injury
or death.
Caution
Corrosive chemicals such as battery acid
will damage the windscreen. Never allow
corrosive chemicals to contact the
windscreen.
