Baja Motorsports X250 - Manual (Page 34)

Cleaning the vehicle regularly can slow down the color fading of its body and
make it easier to check if there is any damage and any oil leakage.
1. After pre-wiping, the vehicle should be washed with clean water to remove
dirty residues so as to prevent corrosion. Plastic subassemblies should be
cleaned by wiping with a cloth or foam soaked in neutral detergent solution,
followed by washing with clean water.
2. After the cleaned vehicle is air dried, grease the chain and run the engine at
idling speed for a few minutes.
3. Prior to driving, carefully check the braking system repeatedly and repair or
adjust it if necessary.
CAUTION
Washing the motorcycle with over-pressurized water may cause damage to
some of its components. Therefore, do use a pressure washer to clean the
vehicle. The following parts should be cleaned using low pressure water:
— Wheel hub
— Exhaust pipe
— Fuel tank and lower portion of cushion
— Carburetor
— Head lock and ignition switch
— Air filter
