Look after your bikeModern motorcycles are very reliable. Perhaps they’re too reliable. In the days when a bike needed constant maintenance and repair, it would have been rare that a rider didn’t notice that tyre pressures were low. Today that can happen quite easily. After all, you press the button and go and think that’s all you need to know about the bike... but it’s not. There are some parts of a motorcycle that need to be looked at fairly frequently. Check:Tyre pressures and tread. Fluid levels, engine, coolant and brakes. Nut and bolt tightness. Lights and indicators. Brake pads. Chain and sprockets.
Make sure your bike is serviced regularly and properly, and you can face the road with a lot of confidence, and also ride better. Much better than wobbling around on near-flat tyres or having the gear lever fall off. Look after your bike and it will look after you. \
