WARNING: Do not clean your vehicle with a high-pressure device with a strong jet
of water. Excessive pressure can reach electrical components, connectors, flexible
cables, bearings, etc and can damage or destroy them.
WARNING: Wash motorbikes frequently that are used near the sea (salty air) and
on roads subject to salt spreading in winter. Cover with a film of oil or silicone spray
unpainted parts and the most exposed parts such as wheels, forks and swingarm.
Do not treat rubber parts and brakes.
When cleaning, avoid direct exposure to sunlight.
Close off the exhaust system to prevent water from entering.
Use water jet to soften the dirt and mud accumulated on the paintwork, then remove
them with a soft bodywork sponge soaked in water and shampoo. Subsequently
rinse well with water, and dry with air and cloth or suede leather.
Proceed to the emptying of the filter box using the appropriate ventilation and drying.
Detergents pollute water. Always wash the vehicle in areas equipped for collection
and purification of the washing liquids.
After cleaning, ride a short distance until the engine reaches operating temperature.
WARNING: braking effect is reduced with wet brakes. Operate the brakes cau-
tiously to allow them to dry.
Push back the handlebar control covers, so that water can evaporate.
When the bike is completely dry and cooled down, lubricate all moving parts.
Treat all plastic and painted components with non-aggressive detergents or products
that are specific for the care of the motorcycle.
To prevent malfunction of the electrical system, treat electric contacts and switches
with electrical contact spray.
