Should you desire to make a pause over a longer space of time, please observe the following instructions:
– Drive the tanks empty to be able to fill up with fresh fuel when starting the motorcycle up again.
– Clean motorcycle thoroughly (see chapter: CLEANING)
– Change engine oil and oil filter (old engine oil contains aggressive contaminations).
– Check antifreezer and amount of cooling liquid.
– Correct tire pressure.
– Disassemble and charge battery (see chapter: BATTERY).
– Jack up the motorcycle if possible so the wheels do not touch the ground.
– The storage place should be dry and not subject to excessive temperature fluctuations.
– Cover the motorcycle with an air permeated tarpaulin or blanket. Do not use non air permeable materials as a possible humidity might
not be able to escape and could cause corrosion.
It would be very bad to let the engine run for a short time during the storage period. The engine would not get warmed up enough and the
thus developed steam would condense during the combustion process and cause the valves and exhaust to rust.
RE-INITIATION AFTER TIME OF STORAGE
– Mount the charged battery (regard polarity), secure the screws on the underride protection with Loctite 243.
– Fill up tank with fresh fuel.
– Check motorcycle as before each start (see driving instructions).
– Take a short, careful test ride first.
NOTE: Before you put your motorcycle away for the winter, you have to check all parts for their function and wear. Should any service jobs,
repairs, or any refitting be necessary, you should have them carried out during the off-season (lower workload at mechanics’ shops). This
way, you can avoid the long waiting times at your mechanic at the beginning of the next biking season.
