STORAGE

Removal from Storage

1. Remove the cover and unlock the front forks (if locked with accessory lock).
2. Check the tire pressure (page 119) and inflate the tires if necessary.
3. Reinstall the battery (see page 130).
4. Wash and dry the entire motorcycle (see page 138).
5. Prior to starting the engine, change the engine oil and filter (see page 82, beginning with step 4).

Notice

During storage, temperature and humidity changes can cause condensation to form in the crankcase and

mix with engine oil. Running the engine with oil that contains condensation can cause engine damage.

6. Wax, polish or apply protectant to the appropriate motorcycle components (see page 140).
7. Perform the pre-operation check as outlined on page 47.
8. Road test the motorcycle before returning it to regular use (see page 136).
