Cleaning and Storage Removal From Storage 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Remove the cover and any intake or exhaust coverings. Unlock the front forks (if locked). Verify that tire pressure is at specification. Install the battery and perform an electrical inspection. Check the oil level.

Running the engine with oil that contains condensation can cause engine damage. 6. Inspect the storage area for signs of fluid leaks. Identify and perform service to any leaking components. 7. Install new spark plugs if necessary. 8. Perform the pre-ride inspections. See page 34. 9. Perform a road test. See page 51. 10. Wash and polish the motorcycle.
