be covered with an impermeable material:
the rear part of the silencers; the clutch and brake
levers and pedals, the throttle twist-grip and the ignition
key switch.
Washing
Avoid spraying water too much pressure on the instru
ments and the front and rear h ubs.
Drying
Remove the protective coverings.
Thoroughly dry the vehicle.
Test the brakes before using the vehicle.
Storage
If the vehicle is to remain idle for a considerable period
of time (e.g. for the winter period) it should be stored in
the following way:
•
clean the vehicle thoroughly;
•
empty the fuel tank and the carburettors. If left for a
long time, the fuel would evaporate;
•
remove the spark plugs and put a few drops of SAE
30 oil into the cylinder. Turn the crankshaft for a few
revolutions and then replace the spark plugs;
•
reduce the tyre pressures by 20%;
•
position the vehicle so that its wheels are not
touching the ground;
•
smear a layer of oil on unpainted parts to prevent
rust;
•
remove the battery and store in a dry place away
from the direct sunlight and where there is not danger
of frost; check the battery charge once a month ;
•
cover the vehicle but in such a way that the air can
circulate.
