3 Key Bike Maintenance Tips for Beginners

While a bike is one of the most passionate possessions for riders, for some, it is a mode of conveyance. Many use it for sports, recreation, and competition, while others for business.

Riding a well-maintained bike is a joyous experience, no matter what terrain you take. 


That is why proper maintenance is important. A well-maintained bike can reward you with an extended vehicle life. 

Whether you have a sports bike like Apache RR 310 or a stylish commuter like TVS Raider, mileage and smooth performance are a must. Here are some maintenance tips to take care of your bike: -

Keep the Bike Clean

One of the best ways to have a great ride experience on a motorbike is by cleaning it on a regular basis. It is easy and quick as you only need to use a recommended microfiber cloth. It is also good to wash your bike once or twice a month or whenever it gets exposed to mud and rain. In addition, you should avoid parking it in direct sunlight as it may dull its appearance. 


Check Your Tyres

The next important thing about bike care is checking its tyres for air pressure levels and damages like holes, cracks, and tears. In case of cracks on your tyre, get them changed immediately, as cuts and scrapes can cause a tyre blowout. Also, ensure the air pressure is maintained at levels recommended by the bike manufacturer. 


Engine Maintenance

The engine is the heart of your bike. Getting your bike serviced regularly will keep the engine properly tuned for optimal performance. Keep the carburettor cleaned and ensure that the gaps of spark plugs are set perfectly. Along with that, always maintain the correct level of engine oil as well. 


Collectively, these maintenance practices can help ensure smooth and proper performance and longevity of your bike. At the same time, keep yourself updated with the servicing schedule, as it will help you avert any potential problems.
