Tires:
Tires are your only contact with the road, so keeping them in good condition is crucial. Regularly check for proper inflation, tread depth, and signs of wear. Replace tires when they become worn or damaged.
Brakes:
Brakes are essential for safe stopping. Ensure your brake pads have sufficient thickness and that the brake fluid is at the proper level. Squeaking, grinding, or a spongy brake lever are signs that your brakes need attention.
Chain and Sprockets:
A well-lubricated and correctly tensioned chain reduces the risk of sudden failures that could cause a crash. Regularly clean, lubricate, and adjust the chain to avoid problems.
Lights and Signals:
Visibility is crucial for motorcycle safety. Regularly check your headlights, brake lights, and turn signals to ensure they are functioning correctly. Consider upgrading to LED lights for better visibility.
Fluids:
Regularly check and change the engine oil, coolant, and other fluids to ensure smooth operation. Neglecting fluid maintenance can lead to engine problems or overheating, which can be dangerous while riding.
