Maintenance and Adjustment
After Washing
• Remove the rubber bands, plastic
bags and tape, and clear the air
intakes.
• Lubricate the pivots, bolts and nuts.
• Test the brakes before motorcycle
operation.
• Start the engine and run it for
5 minutes. Ensure adequate
ventilation for the exhaust fumes.
• Use a dry cloth to absorb water
residue. Do not allow water to stand
on the machine as this will lead to
corrosion.
Unpainted Aluminium Items
• Items such as brake and clutch levers
must be correctly cleaned to
preserve their appearance.
• Use a proprietary brand of
aluminium cleaner which does not
contain abrasive or caustic elements.
• Clean aluminium items regularly, in
particular after use in inclement
weather, where the components
must be hand washed and dried
each time the machine is used.
• Warranty claims due to inadequate
maintenance will not be allowed.
Cleaning of Exhaust System
All parts of the exhaust system of your
motorcycle must be cleaned regularly to
avoid a deterioration of its appearance.
Note:
• The exhaust system must be cool
before washing to prevent water
spotting.
Washing
• Prepare a mixture of cold water and
mild automotive cleaner. Do not use
a high alkaline content soap as
commonly found at commercial car
washes because it leaves a residue.
• Wash the exhaust system with a soft
cloth. Do not use an abrasive
scouring pad or steel wool. They will
damage the finish.
• Rinse the exhaust system
thoroughly.
• Ensure no soap or water enters the
exhausts.
Drying
• Dry the exhaust system completely
with a soft cloth. Do not run the
engine to dry the system or spotting
will occur.
Protecting
• When the exhaust system is dry, rub
'Motorex 645 Clean and Protect'
into the surface.
