CLEANING AND STORAGE
A. CLEANING
Frequent, thorough cleaning of your motorcycle will not only
enhance its appearance but will improve its general
performance and extend the useful life of many components.
1. Before cleaning the motorcycle:
a. Block off the end of the exhaust pipe to prevent water entry; a plastic bag and strong rubber band may be
used.
b. Make sure the spark plug and all filler caps are properly
installed.
2. If the engine case is excessively greasy, apply degreaser with a paint brush. Do not apply degreaser
to the chain, sprockets, or wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a garden hose, Use only enough pressure to do the job.
Excessive hose pressure may cause water seepage and
deterioration of wheel bearings, front fork, brakes,
transmission seals and electrical parts. Many expensive repair bills have resulted from improper
high pressure detergent applications such as those
available in coin-operated car washers.
4. Once the majority of the dirt has been hosed off, wash
all surfaces with warm water and mild, detergent-type
soap. An old toothbrush or bottle brush is handy for
hard-to-get-at places.
5. Rinse the motorcycle off immediately with clean water
and dry all surfaces with a chamois, clean towel, or
soft absorbent cloth.
6. Dry the chain and lubricate it to prevent rust.
7. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery cleaner to keep the cover pliable and glossy.
8. Automotive-type wax may be applied to all painted and
chrome-plated surfaces. Avoid combination cleaner-
waxes. Many contain abrasives which may mar the paint
or protective finish. When finished, start the engine and
let it idle for several minutes.

7-2 B. STORAGE
Long term storage (30 days or more) of your machine will
require some preventive procedures to guard against
deterioration. After thoroughly cleaning the machine,
prepare for storage as follows:
1. Drain the fuel tank, fuel lines, and carburetor float
bowl(s).
2. Remove the spark plug(s), pour about one tablespoon
of SAE 20W50 motor oil in the spark plug hole(s) and
reinstall the spark plug(s).
Crank the engine over several times (with the
ignition off) to coat the cylinder walls with oil.
3. Remove the drive chain. Clean it thoroughly with
solvent and lubricate it.
Reinstall the chain or store it in a plastic bag
(tied to frame for safe-keeping).
4. Lubricate all control cables.
5. Block up the frame to raise both wheels off the
ground.
6. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlet to
prevent moisture from entering.7. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmosphere, coat
all exposed metal surfaces with a light film of
oil. Do not apply oil to any rubber parts or the
seat cover.
8. Remove the battery and charge it. Store it in a dry place
and recharge it once a month. Do not store the battery
in an excessively warm or cold place (less than 0ºC
(30ºF) or more than 30ºC (90ºF).
NOTE:
Make any necessary repairs before storing the machine.
