Finish Care: Clean your motorcycle carefully before storing it. Apply wax to every painted part you can , fasteners and other small pieces can be coated with Vaseline. www.superiormcsupply.com
Coddle Your Engine: After the winter is over its better to drain the old oil -- and the contaminants in it -- now, before the acids and other evil compounds can work on your motorcycle engine. Change the filter, too. www.superiormcsupply.com
Brakes: Brake fluid absorbs water, which is why it should be changed. This also applies to hydraulically operated clutches. www.superiormcsupply.com
