spark plugs, and then place the
spark plugs on the cylinder head
so that the electrodes are ground-
ed. (This will limit sparking during
the next step.)
d. Turn the engine over several times
with the starter. (This will coat the
cylinder walls with oil.)
e. Remove the spark plug caps from
the spark plugs, and then install
the spark plugs and the spark plug
caps.

sparking, make sure to ground the
spark plug electrodes while turning
the engine over. @6. Lubricate all control cables and
the pivoting points of all levers and
pedals as well as of the sidestand/
centerstand.7. Check and, if necessary, correct
the tire air pressure, and then lift
the motorcycle so that both of its
wheels are off the ground. Alterna-
tively, turn the wheels a little every
month in order to prevent the tires
from becoming degraded in one
spot.
8. Cover the muffler outlets with plas-
tic bags to prevent moisture from
entering them.
9. Remove the battery and fully
charge it. Store it in a cool, dry
place and charge it once a month.
Do not store the battery in an ex-
cessively cold or warm place (less
than 0 °C or more than 30 °C). For
more information on storing the
battery, see page 6-27.
NOTE:@ Make any necessary repairs before
storing the motorcycle. @
