chrome, aluminum, and stainless
steel parts. Often the thermally in-
duced discoloring of stainless steel
exhaust systems can be removed
through polishing.

or nickel-plated surfaces.
WARNING! Do not apply
silicone or oil spray to seats,
hand grips, rubber foot pegs or
tire treads. Otherwise these
parts will become slippery,
which could cause loss of con-
trol. Thoroughly clean the sur-
faces of these parts before
operating the vehicle.

minutes to help dry any remaining
moisture.
