Never grease or lubricate the brake discs. Loss of braking
and further accidents may occur.
Clean the discs with an oil-free solvent.
Cleaning the motorcycle
To preserve the finish of metal parts and paintwork, wash
and clean your motorcycle at regular intervals, anyway
according to the road conditions you ride in.
Use specific products only. Prefer biodegradable
products. Avoid aggressive detergents or solvents.
Important
Do not wash your motorcycle right after use. When
the motorcycle is still hot, water drops will evaporate
faster and spot hot surfaces.
Do not use high-pressure or hot water jets. Using water
cleaners could cause certain parts - such as front fork,
wheel hubs, electric system, front fork seals, air scoops
and exhaust silencers - to seize or malfunction and impair
the safety features of the motorcycle.
Clean off stubborn dirt or exceeding grease from engine
parts using a degreasing agent. Be sure to avoid contact
with drive parts (chain, sprockets, etc.)
Rinse with warm water and dry all surfaces with chamois
leather.
Warning
Braking performance may be impaired immediately
after washing the motorcycle.
