When washing the vehi
cle, always use a m ild neu-
tral detergent and water.
Avoid applying all harsh chemicals, solvents,
degreaser, oil remover, electrical contact cleaner,
and household cleaning products such as ammo-
nia-based window cleaners. They will damage
or deteriorate painted parts, plastic parts, rubber
parts and other synthetic parts including covers
and headlight lenses.
Avoid applying
degreaser to seals, brake pads,
and tires.
Gasoline, brake fluid, and coolant will damage the
finish of paint
ed and plastic surfaces: wash them
off immediately.
Avoid wire brushes, steel wool, and all other abra-
sive pads or brushes.
Take care when washing the headlight lens and
other plastic parts as they can easily be scratched.
NOTE

or near the ocean, immediately wash your vehicle
with c
old water. Do not use warm water as it ac-
celerates the chemical reaction of the salt. After
drying, apply a corrosion protection spray on all
metal and chrome surfaces to prevent corrosion.
Condensation may form on the inside of the head-
light lens after riding in the rain, washing the ve-
hicle or humid weather. To remove the moisture,
start the engine and turn on the headlight. Gradu-
ally the condensation on the inside of the lens will
clear off.
Matte Paint Parts
When washing the vehicle, always use a mild neu-
tral detergent and water, or cleaners for matte
paint.
The matte paint effect may be lost when the paint
is excessively rubbed.
If any doubt, consult an authorized Kawasaki
dealer.
Plastic Parts
After washing, use a soft cloth to gently dry plastic
parts. When dry, treat the headlight lens and other
nonpainted plast
ic parts with an approved plastic
cleaner/polisher product.
NOTICE
Plastic parts may deteriorate and break if
they come in contact with chemical sub-
stances or household cleaning products
such as gasoline, brake fluid, window clean-
ers, thread-locking a gents, or other harsh
chemicals. If a plastic part comes in contact
with any harsh chemical substance, wash it
off immediately with water and a mild neu-
tral detergent, and then inspect for damage.
Avoid using abrasive pads or brushes to
clean plastic parts, as they will damage the
part’s finish.
Chrome and
Aluminum
Chrome and uncoated aluminum parts can be
treated with a chrome/aluminum polish. Coated
