MOTORCYCLE CARE AND STORAGE

8-3

8

● Never use compounds or other

special treatments to clean the tita-

nium muffler, as they will remove

the finish on the outer surface of

the muffler.

● Even the smallest amounts of oil,

such as from oily towels or finger-

prints, will leave stains on the tita-

nium muffler, which can be

removed with a mild detergent.

● Note that the thermally induced

discoloring of the portion of the ex-

haust pipe leading into the titanium

muffler is normal and cannot be re-

moved.

After cleaning

1. Dry the motorcycle with a chamois

or an absorbing cloth.

2. Immediately dry the drive chain

and lubricate it to prevent it from

rusting.

3. Use a chrome polish to shine

chrome, aluminum and stainless-

steel parts.

4. To prevent corrosion, it is recom-

mended to apply a corrosion pro-

tection spray on all metal,

including chrome- and nickel-plat-

ed, surfaces.

5. Use spray oil as a universal clean-

er to remove any remaining dirt.

6. Touch up minor paint damage

caused by stones, etc.

7. Wax all painted surfaces.

8. Let the motorcycle dry completely

before storing or covering it.

WARNING

EWA11131

Contaminants on the brakes or tires

can cause loss of control.

● Make sure that there is no oil or

wax on the brakes or tires.

● If necessary, clean the brake

discs and brake linings with a

regular brake disc cleaner or ac-

etone, and wash the tires with

warm water and a mild deter-

gent. Before riding at higher

speeds, test the motorcycle’s

braking performance and cor-

nering behavior.

NOTICE

ECA10800

● Apply spray oil and wax spar-

ingly and make sure to wipe off

any excess.

● Never apply oil or wax to any

rubber and plastic parts, but

treat them with a suitable care

product.

● Avoid using abrasive polishing

compounds as they will wear

away the paint.

TIP

● Consult a Yamaha dealer for ad-

vice on what products to use.

● Washing, rainy weather or humid

climates can cause the headlight

lens to fog. Turning the headlight

on for a short period of time will

help remove the moisture from the

lens.
