Appearance Care
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 95.
After washing your Honda SXS, consider using a commercially
available spray cleaner/polish or quality liquid or paste wax to finish
the job. Use only a non-abrasive polish or wax made specifically for
motorcycles or automobiles. Apply the polish or wax according to
the instructions on the container.
If a surface on your Honda SXS is chipped or scratched, your dealer has
touch-up paint to match your Honda SXS’s color. Be sure to use your
Honda SXS’s color code (page 233) when you buy touch-up paint.
If the frame has a chip that exposes the metal, first apply primer (to
prevent corrosion) and then apply the touch-up paint. Several thin
layers of touch-up paint are better than one thick coat.
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 95.
The exhaust pipe and muffler are stainless steel but may become
stained by mud or dust. Make sure no flammable materials or debris
are sticking to the exhaust system. If any flammable materials or
debris is found, remove it.
To remove mud or dust, use a wet sponge and a liquid kitchen abrasive,
then rinse well with clean water. Dry with chamois or a soft towel.
If necessary, remove heat stains by using a commercially available
fine texture compound. Then, rinse by the same manner as removing
mud or dust.
