Storing Your Vehicle

If you store your vehicle outdoors, you should consider using a full-body cover.

If you won't be riding for an extended period, follow these guidelines:


  • To prevent the batteries for motor from degrading, keep the battery for motor gauge at 30 % and store your vehicle somewhere cool.
  • Recommended temperature: 0 to 25 °C

  • When you store your vehicle, check the battery for motor gauge once a month. If it goes down to 10 %, charge your vehicle until it gets to 30 %.
  • NOTICE

  • Do not store your vehicle at 10 % for an extended period of time, as it may cause the batteries for motor to malfunction.
  • Do not store your vehicle fully charged, as it may further degradation.
  • Wash your vehicle and wax all painted surfaces (except mat painted surfaces). Coat chrome pieces with rust-inhibiting oil.
  • Place your vehicle on its centre stand and position a block so that both tyres are off the ground.
  • After rain, remove the body cover and allow the vehicle to dry.
  • Remove the 12 V battery () to prevent discharge. Fully charge the 12 V battery and then place it in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
  • If you leave the 12 V battery in place, disconnect the negative terminal to prevent discharge.

  • After removing your vehicle from storage, fully charge the batteries for motor and inspect all maintenance items required by the Maintenance Schedule.
