For storage of your motorcycle for longer periods of
over a month and above, we recommend to carry out
the following steps:
STORAGE PROCEDURES
2. Warm up the engine and drain engine cum
transmission oil. Store the oil, if new, in a dust free
container.
3. Empty the fuel tank. Turn the fuel cock lever to
‘OFF’ position.
4. Drain the petrol from the carburettor.
1. Clean the vehicle thoroughly. Park the vehicle on
centre stand.
5. Remove the spark plug and feed in several drop of
engine cum transmission oil through spark plug
hole. Crank the engine few times and reinstall the
spark plug.
6. Remove the battery, store it away from direct
sunlight and freezing temperatures.
8. Cover up the vehicle completely with a clean
tarpaulin or any other suitable cover. Store the
vehicle inside a garage or similar area to avoid
damage due to dust and rain. Make sure that the
storage area is well ventilated and free from any
source of flame or spark.
7. Place a suitable support at the bottom of the
frame so that both the tyres are off the ground.
This will ensure better tyre life.
During storage, the battery must be recharged on a
constant current battery charger at recommended
amperage atleast once in a month.
Do not park the vehicle on a slope or soft ground or
else it may fall.
