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:
Wash your vehicle and wax all painted surfaces (except mat painted surfaces). Coat chrome pieces with rust-inhibiting oil.
Lubricate the drive chain.
Place your vehicle on a maintenance 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 battery () to prevent discharge. Fully charge the battery and then place it in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
If you leave the battery in place, disconnect the negative ⊝ terminal to prevent discharge.
After removing your vehicle from storage, inspect all maintenance items required by the Maintenance Schedule.
