E General cleaning To preserve the original shine on metal surfaces and paintwork, wash and clean your motorcycle at regular intervals depending on the type of use and according to the particular road conditions. Use specific products, where possible biodegradable. Avoid aggressive detergents or solvents. Only use water and neutral soap to clean the Plexiglas and the seat. There may be loss of braking efficiency immediately after washing the motorcycle. Never grease or lubricate the brake discs as this would cause loss of braking effectiveness. Clean the discs with an oil-free solvent. Warning Do not wash your motorcycle immediately after use, as marks can form due to evaporation of the water on hot surfaces. Never clean the motorcycle using hot or highpressure water jets. Cleaning the motorcycle with a high pressure water jet may lead to seizure or serious faults in the front fork, wheel hub assembly, electric system, headlight (fogging), front fork seals, air inlets or exhaust silencers, with consequent loss of safety. If parts of the engine are unusually dirty or greasy, use a degreasing agent, avoiding contact with transmission components (chain, front and rear sprockets, etc.). Rinse with warm water and dry all surfaces with chamois leather. Important The headlight might fog up due to washing, rain or moisture. Switch headlight on for a short time to dry up any condensate.
