Cleaning and Storage
Engine Protection
Change the engine oil. See page 146. Carbon deposits and combustion acids, normally sus-
pended in the engine oil when in service, settle on internal engine components during stor-
age. Settled deposits can cause engine damage or internal corrosion.
Battery Care
1. Remove the battery. See page 196.
2. Clean the battery terminals first with a wire brush to remove any loose deposits.
3. Wash the posts and the ends of the battery cables with a solution of 1 part baking soda to
16 parts water. Rinse with clean water and wipe dry.
4. Apply a thin film of dielectric grease (available from your VICTORY dealer) to the posts
and cable connectors.
5. Clean the outside of the battery with a solution of mild detergent and warm water.
6. Store the battery in a dry area with a temperature of 32° to 90° F (0° to 32° C).
7. While in storage, fully charge the battery once a month. See page 199.
