STORAGE
Removal from Storage
1. Remove the cover and unlock the front forks (if locked with accessory lock).
2. Check the tire pressure (page 117) and inflate the tires if necessary.
3. Reinstall the battery (see page 127).
4. Wash and dry the entire motorcycle (see page 135).
5. Prior to starting the engine, change the engine oil and filter (see page 83, beginning with step 4).
During storage, temperature and humidity changes can cause condensation to form in the crankcase and
mix with engine oil. Running the engine with oil that contains condensation can cause engine damage.

7. Perform the pre-operation check as outlined on page 49.
8. Road test the motorcycle before returning it to regular use (see page 132).
