Finishing Touches
After washing your motorcycle, consider
using
a
commercially-available
cleaner/polish or quality liquid or paste wax to
finish the job. Use only a non-abrasive polish
or wax made specifically for motorcycles or
automobiles. Apply the polish or wax
according
to
the
container.

Removing Road Salt
The salt contained in seawater and the road
surface freezing prevention substance which
roads are sprayed with in winter, causes rust.
Wash your motorcycle following the points
listed below when your motorcycle has been
exposed to these conditions.
1. Clean the motorcycle using cool water
(page 125).
Do not use warm water. This worsens the
effect of the salt.
2. Dry the motorcycle and the metal surfaces
protected with wax.
