Do not overfill the fuel tank. Avoid
spilling fuel on the hot engine. Do
not fill the fuel tank above the bot-
tom of the filler tube or it may
overflow when the fuel heats up
later and expands.

EAU01301A. 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 compo-
nents.
ECA00002

8Improper cleaning can damage
the cowlings, panels and other
plastic parts. Use only a soft,
clean cloth or sponge with
mild detergent and water to
clean plastic.
8Do not use any harsh chemical
products on plastic parts. Be
sure to avoid using cloths or
sponges which have been in
contact with strong or abra-
sive cleaning products, solvent
or thinner, fuel (gasoline), rust
removers or inhibitors, brake
fluid, antifreeze or electrolyte.
EC000111
cC
Excessive hose pressure may
cause water seepage and deterio-
ration of wheel bearings, front
fork, brakes, transmission seals
and electrical parts.
Many expensive repair bills have
resulted from improper high pres-
sure detergent applications such
as those available in coin-operated
car washers.
4. After riding on salted roads,
wash the motorcycle with cold
water immediately. Do not use
warm water as it increases the
chemical reaction of the salt.
5. 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. 1. Before cleaning the motorcy-
cle:
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 excessive-
ly 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.
