CLEANING AND
STORAGE
EAK01302*A. CLEANING
Frequent, thorough cleaning of your mo-
torcycle will not only enhance its appear-
ance but will improve its general perfor-
mance and extend the useful life of many
components.
1. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a
garden hose.EUU34602cCExcessive hose pressure may cause water
seepage and deterioration of wheel bear-
ings, front fork, brakes, transmission seals
and electrical parts.2. After cleaning the motorcycle, dry all
surfaces with a chamois, clean towel,
or soft absorbent cloth.3. Dry the chain and lubricate it to pre-
vent rust.
4. Automotive-type wax may be applied
to all painted and chrome-plated sur-
faces. When finished, start the engine
and let it idle for several minutes.
EAK00700B. STORAGE
Long term storage (60 days or more) of
your motorcycle will require some preven-
tive procedures to guard against deteriora-
tion. After thoroughly cleaning the motor-
cycle, prepare for storage as follows:
1. Drain the fuel tank, fuel lines, and car-
buretor float bowl(s).
2. Remove the empty fuel tank, pour a
cup of SAE 10W30 or 20W40 motor oil
in the tank, shake the tank to coat the
inner surfaces thoroughly and drain
