CLEANING

Windshield Care

If your motorcycle is equipped with an optional windshield:
Wash the windshield using a soft cloth or sponge soaked in a solution of mild detergent and warm water, applying

minimal pressure as you wash. Let the detergent do the cleaning, not the pressure you apply. Excessive washing

pressure may cause dirt, sand, or other foreign materials on the windshield to scratch it. Soak the cloth or sponge in

the detergent and water solution frequently to provide plenty of soapy water for washing, and keep the cloth or

sponge clean by rinsing it frequently.
S

Minor scratches may be removed with a quality plastic polishing compound. Follow the manufacturer’s instruc-

tions when using plastic polishing compounds.

S

Insects, oil, tar, and tree sap may also damage the motorcycle’s finish. If normal washing does not remove these

materials, you may need to use a special cleaner. Choose a cleaner designed for use on clear plastic and follow the

manufacturer’s instructions when using special cleaners.

Notice

Do not use glass cleaners, water or soil repellents, or petroleum or alcohol based cleaners, as these products

can damage the windshield.
