Preparation of a motorcycle for the season, withdrawal from winter conservation.

Charge the battery, the charge should be not lower than 12.3-13 V

If a motorcycle costs without movement for several weeks, then periodic recharging of the battery is desirable to maintain it in the form, especially if it is no longer the first freshness. Regardless of whether you did this during the winter parking or not, when preparing for the season, the first thing the battery should be charged. The first start of the engine after a long parking lot is usually longer, it is not always possible from the first time and an underwake battery may simply not be enough.

Wash the motorcycle, clearing it from silicone. Replace fuel in the gas tank.

Due to the fact that during the wintering of a motorcycle fuel in a gas tank can be buried, dropping out to the bottom of the tank, the start of the engine can lead to filter contamination, carburetors, the failure of the engine. To prevent it, you need to drain fuel from the gas tank completely and fill out fresh.

Replace ignition candles.

When preparing a motorcycle for the season, it is necessary to replace the candles to new, since because of long downtime, they can fail. In the case of unscrewing the candles before conservation, and if they need to be serviced and screwed into place in a suitable state.

Check out the condition air filterIf the light filter elements are grilled or covered with a dirty raid - replace the filter.

If from the moment of the previous replacement of filters on the motorcycle, a fairly long time period was held, the beginning of the season - a good reason to replace them with new or, in the case of using reusable air filters - Clean them and "rewrite".

Check the condition of the tires if the tires are descended for the winter, pumped them to the operating pressure, give a motorcycle to stand and after a while check the pressure - make sure that the tires do not descend.

It is necessary to test the tread on the degree of wear, the presence of cracks or punctures and cuts, the absence of foreign objects and the integrity of Cord. If the tires are noticeably worn or there is at least the slightest doubts in their integrity, the beginning of the season is the best time to buy a new rubber.

As for the pressure: unpacked or transferred relative to the tire value recommended by the manufacturer, adversely affect manageability, braking and can lead to emergency situations. If, after a long battery, the tires lost too much air, and the tires look outwardly, then check the wheels nipple - it is possible in it, and it lies.

Check the condition of the brakes, replace the brake fluid.

Next procedure - Check brake system. Rate the thickness of the frictional coating on the brake pads and, with a significant wear, replace them with new ones. Check and, if necessary, draw the brake fluid in the main brake cylinder. Make sure that the fluid meets the requirements of specifications and is compatible with the one that is refilled in the system of your motorcycle. When manipulating with brake fluid, avoid getting it into the painted surfaces of the motorcycle - it can damage them.

Try to press the brake lever and if the effort on it is too soft and inadvertent, then the air is most likely in the brake system and it is necessary to pump it.

Check the brake hoses on the absence of leaks and deformation when pressed on the lever. Clean the surface brake discs Brushing and dry rag from wear products, dirt or oil. Oil there may be if the plug's glands are faulty and for the winter, the fork flowed. Make sure that brake cylinders And the pads have the necessary mobility and exempt discs and drums when the lever is released.

If necessary, adjust the position and free move Lever and brake pedals. Finally, check the operation of the stop signal lamp, which should light up when pressed on the front and rear brake pedal.

Carefully inspect the status of stars and chains if the teeth are curved, worn, have chips - replace the stars. Tension and lubricate the chain if the chain has no uniform provis - replace the chain.

Inspect the chain and stars for wear. If the teeth have an explicit wear and shape that differs from the standard symmetric is a sign of the need to replace. The worn chain is distinguished by a large backlash, and the wear can be uneven and cause a jerk movement in the transmission. The jams and fixed relative to each other links are also a sign of an explicit chain malfunction. As a rule, asterisks and chain change together with a set, as the old chain quickly makes new stars and vice versa.

Regardless of what type of Moto Ship (X-Ring, W-Ring, O-Ring or Other) is used on your motorcycle, they all require regular lubricant to function normally and work out its entire service life. There are many chain lubricant names and when choosing should be guided by the manufacturer's recommendations, and if there is no specific instructions, it is focused on the fact that Moto-cap lubricants are divided into road and off-road whose properties are optimized for the features of operation in certain conditions.

In the process of lubricating the chain, it is important to fully cover the rubber seals - it is precisely from their state that the tightness of the chain sleeves and its performance and resource depends. If the chain is badly contaminated, it should be washed and wipe it in front of the lubricant. In the process of lubrication, it is important not to overdo it, since despite the greater viscosity, the amount of lubricant in the first meters will fly away and blurs the surrounding space. Therefore, finishing the application of lubricant, carefully wrap the chain with a clean cloth, removing excess. Note: Application of lubricant after a trip, to a preheated chain, will ensure its best penetration. On average, the chain lubrication is recommended every 500 km, as well as after each ride on the mud or heavy rain. The interval should be reduced if the motorcycles are operated in more contaminated and dusty than the usual urban asphalt. Chain and stars change only with a set!

If you have a cardan replace the transmission oil.

Offseason - a great reason to change the oil in rear gearbox Or at least check its level. Before opening the fuel plug, thoroughly clean the surface of the gearbox from the dirt to prevent it from entering the gearbox. In addition, the lubricant is subject to all press oils available on the cardan drive. When conducting these works, use oils and lubricants specified by the manufacturer in the instruction manual.

These procedures are usually sufficient for long and trouble-free work. cardan Transmissionwhich in itself requires much less attention than chain or belt.

Replace coolant.

On motorcycles S. liquid cooling The level of antifreeze and integrity of the radiator and nozzles are checked. When replacing, use the antifreeze of the type recommended by the manufacturer. With the top of the top different types Coolant. Not all automotive antifreeze are suitable for use on motorcycles.

Rinse and clean the radiator from the outside of the accumulated contaminants. To avoid damage to the radiator plates, do not use the brush to clean the brush with metal bristle and do not direct the jet from the high pressure washing.

Evaluate the condition of the glands and anthers of the front fork. If after swinging - traces of oil remain on the feathers - the plug starts to "hinilable", make the replacement of the glands and anthers of the fork.

Usually before the glands on the fork begin to skip the oil, the pen starts "sweat" i.e. Leave unobistible particles of oil, which dust falls when moving. After the pen began to "sweat" by about 1-2 months, the fork begins to skip oil.

Oil leaving is dangerous not only the absence and / or reduction of depreciation properties, the fact that the leaked oil gets straight to brake pads The front contour of the brakes, which in itself is already extremely dangerous.

The glands usually deteriorate either from age (loads), from the fact that the boot begins to skip dirt, water, the gland in this case is beginning to "rot", on this extremely preferably cracking and completely "wooden" anthers replace with new, but not all Motorcycles can be found anthers, for example, the old models of anthers are no longer found. They are simply no longer released.

Rate condition rear shock absorber - No oils should not be on the shock absorber (shock absorbers). Check out motor oil.

Check the oil level in the engine using the viewing window or the measuring probe. Different motorcycles may differ in level test methods, so specify this moment in the instruction manual.

If the motorcycle stood for several months and for all this time the oil did not change, the beginning of the season is a good reason to replace it. Modern oils Have a tendency to decompose over time, so in addition to the running run, it is also necessary to take into account the use of oil. Of course, with him changing and oil filter. If a motorcycle is equipped with an oil radiator, then check it out and all related connections for leaks.

On motorcycles with a separate gearbox, check in them the level and condition of the oil oil.

Get a motorcycle. Replace the engine oil, use only motorcycle oil with the parameters recommended by your motorcycle manufacturer.

To replace motor oil in a motorcycle, you will need the following tools:

Engine oil suitable for your engine: the right class and in the required quantity.

Before using the engine oil, you must familiarize yourself with the Motorcycle Operation Manual. Replacing the oil should be held in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.

Protection tools: Protective glasses and rubber gloves.

Oil filter.

Item key for oil drain plug.

Special wrench for oil filter.

Container for spent engine oil and funnel.

Newspaper paper (or paper towels) and rags.

O-ring, if necessary.

The procedure for replacing motorcycle engine oil:

Prepare a motorcycle:

In order for the engine oil to be less viscous and could freely drain when replacing, it is recommended to start the motorcycle engine and leave it to work for 1-2 minutes. Then make sure that the motorcycle is fixed, stands on a flat horizontal surface, and muffle the engine.

Replace Motor Oil:

Find drain plug (See Operating Instructions), undress newspaper paper or paper towel. Place the pallet under the plug and make sure that its volume is enough to drain all the oil into it. Unscrew the drain cork using the ski key. Do not touch it: it can be very hot.

Do not drop the plug. Wait a few minutes while the exhaust oil is stealing. When the tank is empty, carefully clean the drain plug and its seal.

When strong wear Seal replace it with a new and gently tighten the drain plug.

Pull out the used oil filter:

Determine the location of the oil filter (see Operation Manual).

Make sure that new filterwhich you are going to install the same model as the old: exist different types filters. To remove the filter, you need to select the correct tool depending on the type of filter. The filter is likely to be filled with oil - position the pallet closer to yourself in order to drain the remaining oil into it. Then unscrew the oil filter using the filter wrench; Pay attention to how all the elements are located relative to each other in order to correctly arrange them after replacing the filter.

Install a new filter:

Before installing the new filter, clean the base in the place where it is attached to the engine. Apply a small amount of oil on a finger seal to reduce the risk of leakage. Caution, not too much, tighten the new filter.

Pour the new oil into the engine:

Before pouring into a new oil, find in the instruction manual, how many oils must be pouring and what type of oil should be used. After you have chosen a suitable engine oil, fill the oil into the engine through the funnel to the maximum level on the meter indicator or viewing window. After you poured the oil to the maximum level, tighten the cork and make sure that all items are installed in place.

Check the oil level:

Run the engine in mode idle move for 5 minutes. Mustle the engine, check the oil level and, if necessary, make oil.

Pass the spent oil into the relevant recycling center:

Attention! Mix the spent oil into the sewer or in the soil is prohibited.

Oil together with the used filter can be disposed of (as picked up, completely free) in the service center or the recycling center for such waste.

Check the operation of the electrical appliances (headlights, turn signals, sound signal).

Check the performance of all light instruments, stop signals, turn signals, beeps and various buttons on the steering switches and dashboard. It will take literally minute, but you will be confident in your visibility and safety on the road.

Spring in Russia, like everything else, comes unexpectedly, and that this surprise does not bring unexpected surprises, the motorcyclists should take care of the preparedness of the motorcycle for the season. Otherwise, the first departure in finally a truly warm and dry spring day can crush any suddenly outstanding problems, or even not take place at all.

In this material we will consider a number of simple, but important things you need to do before the new season. If you do not have the slightest skills of the mechanic, it makes sense to seek pre-season preparation for specialists in Motoservice.

Rubber Check:

It is necessary to test the tread on the degree of wear, the presence of cracks or punctures and cuts, the absence of foreign objects and the integrity of Cord. If the tires are noticeably worn or there is at least the slightest doubts about their integrity, the beginning of the season is the best time to.

As for the pressure: unpacked or transferred relative to the tire value recommended by the manufacturer, adversely affect manageability, braking and can lead to emergency situations. If, after a long battery, the tires lost too much air, and the rubber looks outwardly, then check the wheels nipple - it is possible in it and he lies.

Check brakes:

Next to the importance of the procedure is to check the help of the brake system. Rate the thickness of the frictional coating on the brake pads and, with a significant wear, replace them with new ones. Check and, if necessary, draw the brake fluid in the main brake cylinder. Make sure that the fluid meets the requirements of specifications and is compatible with the one that is refilled in the system of your motorcycle. When manipulating with brake fluid, avoid getting it into the painted surfaces of the motorcycle - it can damage them.
Try to press the brake lever and if the effort on it is too soft and inadvertent, then the air is most likely in the brake system and it is necessary to pump it. If you do not have experience in conducting this procedure, it is better to turn to professionals in.
Check the brake hoses on the absence of leaks and deformation when pressed on the lever. Clean the surface brake discs with a brush and a dry cloth from wear products, dirt or oil. Oil there may be if the plug's glands are faulty and for the winter, the fork flowed. Make sure that the brake cylinders and pads have the necessary mobility and free the discs and drums when the lever is released.
If necessary, adjust the position and free course of the lever and the brake pedal. Finally, check the operation of the stop signal lamp, which should light up when pressed on the front and rear brake pedal.

Main gear:

On modern motorcycles you can find a chain, belt or cardan transmission on rear wheel. Their service is the same as they differ constructively from each other.

Cardan drive:The offseason is an excellent reason to change the oil in the rear gearbox or at least check its level. Before opening the fuel plug, thoroughly clean the surface of the gearbox from the dirt to prevent it from entering the gearbox.
In addition, the lubricant is subject to all press oils available on the cardan drive. When conducting these works, use oils and lubricants specified by the manufacturer in the instruction manual.
The indicated procedures are usually sufficient for the long and non-profitable work of the cardan transmission, which in itself requires much less attention than the chain or belt.

Belt drive: It is characterized by silence, smoothness and reliability of work, but for all this it is very important to comply with its purity and maintain tension within the limits recommended by the manufacturer. For cleaning the belt, only specialized fluids should be used, such as H-D Sunwash, manufactured by Harley-Davidson. External inspection is extremely important when servicing drive belt. Pay attention to the presence of cracks, missing teeth and wear of the sidewall, and if present are present, then the belt must be replaced.

Separately inspect the teeth for their wear, as this is the main sign big Mileage Belts and reading to replace with pulleys.

Chain drive. Stars and chains:Inspect the chain and for wear. If the teeth have an explicit wear and form differing from standard symmetrical - this is a sign of the need to replace. The worn chain is distinguished by a large backlash, and the wear can be uneven and cause a jerk movement in the transmission. The jams and fixed relative to each other links are also a sign of an explicit chain malfunction. As a rule, asterisks and chain change together with a set, as the old chain quickly makes new stars and vice versa.

Regardless of what type (X-Ring, W-Ring, O-Ring or other) is used on your motorcycle, they all require regular lubrication to function normally and work out its entire service life. There are many chain lubricant names and when choosing should be guided by the manufacturer's recommendations, and if there is no specific instructions, it is focused on the fact that Moto-cap lubricants are divided into road and off-road whose properties are optimized for the features of operation in certain conditions.

In the process of lubricating the chain, it is important to fully cover the rubber seals - it is precisely from their state that the tightness of the chain sleeves and its performance and resource depends. If the chain is badly contaminated, it should be washed and wipe it in front of the lubricant. In the process of lubrication, it is important not to overdo it, since despite the greater viscosity, the amount of lubricant in the first meters will fly away and blurs the surrounding space. Therefore, finishing the application of lubricant, carefully wrap the chain with a clean cloth, removing excess. Note: Application of lubricant after a trip, to a preheated chain, will ensure its best penetration.

On average, the chain lubrication is recommended every 500 km, as well as after each ride on the mud or heavy rain. The interval should be reduced if the motorcycles are operated in more contaminated and dusty than the usual urban asphalt.

Motor oil: Check the oil level in the engine using the viewing window or the measuring probe. Different motorcycles may differ in level test methods, so specify this moment in the instruction manual.

If the motorcycle stood for several months and for all this time the oil did not change, the beginning of the season is a good reason to replace it. Modern oils tend to decompose over time, so in addition to the run-up, it is also necessary to take into account the time of use of oil. Of course, with him changes and. If a motorcycle is equipped with an oil radiator, then check it out and all related connections for leaks.

On motorcycles with a separate gearbox, check in them the level and condition of the oil oil.

Cooling system:On liquid cooling motorcycles, the level of antifreeze and the integrity of the radiator and the nozzles are checked. When replacing, use the antifreeze of the type recommended by the manufacturer. When the top is not mixed with different types of coolant. Not all automotive antifreeze are suitable for use on motorcycles.

Rinse and clean the radiator from the outside of the accumulated contaminants. To avoid damage to the radiator plates, do not use the brush to clean the brush with metal bristle and do not direct the jet from the high pressure washing.

Air and fuel filters: If from the moment of the previous replacement of filters on the motorcycle, a fairly long time period was held, the beginning of the season was a good reason to replace them with new or, in the case of using reusable air filters - to clean and "rewrite". For self-replacement fuel filter It is rare to avoid fuel shed, so make sure that the motorcycle is de-energized and there are no potential sources of fire. If from the moment of placing for winter storage in the tank remained old gasoline, it should be completely merged and pour a new one. Gasoline, stored for several months noticeably loses its properties and may make it difficult to start the engine.

Visual engine check: Check the entire engine on the presence of leaks and oils of oil and coolant. Evaluate the state of the spark plugs, as well as candle caps and wires - they should not be some cracks or damage. When replacing candles, use only those recommended by the motorcycle manufacturer. It is allowed to use more advanced analogues with an iridium electrode with similar values \u200b\u200bof a gallinal number and physical dimensions of the candle itself and its electrodes. Absolute majority modern motorcycles have electronic ignitionnot requiring maintenance, but if you are a raritet with classic contact ignitionThen he may need additional adjustment of the gap and ahead.

Tips for experienced: If the motorcycle stood without moving for a very long time, then twisting the candle for checking or replacement, it makes sense to injected into the cylinders a bit of engine oil and scroll the engine without a candle on a few turns so that the oil falls on the cylinder walls before the motor is headed so that it is not the first A few seconds "dry." It was a fairly popular procedure for decades ago, now it is more often a recommendation to pour some oil and without ignition to "move pistons" before making a motorcycle for long-term storage. Anyway, these techniques are unofficial and massively apply them for sure, except for the revitalization of the apparatus with a long-haired oil that has not seen oil.

Battery:If a motorcycle costs without movement for several weeks, then periodic recharging of the battery is desirable to maintain it in the form, especially if it is no longer the first freshness. Regardless of whether you did this during the winter parking or not, when preparing for the season, the first thing the battery should be charged. The first start of the engine after a long parking lot, as a rule, is longer, it is not always possible from the first time and the unsavded battery can simply not be enough.

Electrical equipment:Check the performance of all light instruments, stop signals, turn signals, sound signals and various buttons on the steering switches and dashboard. It will take literally minute, but you will be confident in your visibility and safety on the road.

Other:If there are certain boxes on a motorcycle, bags and some other accessories, check the condition and tightness of their mounts.

Inspect your and primarily a motorcycle on damage and general condition. In case of noticeable wear, it may be necessary to update the Motometrob. And the helmet survived the fall, and even more so the accident is subject to mandatory replacement.

Check for a motorcycle package required for motorcycle - Is it time to replace the rights, what is the validity of insurance, etc.

The first trip is better to make not removing too far from home or garage, in case of sudden faults. During the departure, listen to whether there are any strangers and suspicious noise. It may take something to tighten or adjust. Having rolled, once again inspect the motorcycle - whether there were no leaks.

Important:Recommendations in this material are approximate and general. When conducting elementary maintenance Guided first of all the requirements of the instruction manual specifically your motorcycle. With the slightest doubts, in their capabilities for these works and, with suspicions of one or another malfunction, it is better to contact specialized. This is especially true of modern motorcycles saturated in various electronic systems, which even elementary digitize without special equipment almost impossible to come spring - it's time to prepare a motorcycle to the new season. When the sun begins to sit, and the snow on the lawns is melting, many motorcyclists want to quickly roll out on the road, and on proper preparation Motorcycle patience may not be enough. However, this is fraught with further problems. Before departure from the garage it is worth committing several simple actions that will help save the motorcycle in good condition And minimize risks while driving.
Your actions during the preparation for the Moto season will be completely dependent on how you approached the conservation of motorcycles in the fall.
If you have prepared a motorcycle to wintering correctly: washed it, treated with special means, filled with fresh gasoline, cleaned the filter and chain and so on. (See the Motorcycle Conservation article), then prepare for the season will not be difficult.

What inspections should be done before leaving?

1) Before going to the garage, do not forget to take a charged battery with you (if you took it after the season). Well-charged working battery should show 12,6V charge. For charging gel battery Use only a pulse charger! If you forgot to remove the terminals in the fall, you may have to buy a new battery.

2) Thoroughly wash the lubricant that protects against corrosion, which was applied to the motorcycle in the fall, otherwise it will collect all the road dust.

7) Check the brake pads for wear, if you did not examine them before conservation, replace them if necessary. High-quality pads are safety.Most motorcyclists prefer such famous manufacturers Pads, like Ferodo, NEWFREN, EBC, Nissin. If the pads do not replace on time, the uneven production of brake disc will begin, and their replacement will cost much more expensive. If you have any problems with the choice, contact our specialists for help.

8) Check the presence of outers on the fork, they should not be. With negative temperatures, rubber glands and anthers can crack and cause leak oil. Buy glands and anthers for a motorcycle, as well as fork oil in our store.

9) Check the air pressure in the wheels. Inspect the rubber itself as it is worn. It is worth replacing the rubber over five years old, since she has already lost most of its properties.

10) Before the first departure, check all the mechanisms of the motorcycle on working capacity (brakes, electrics, cables, etc.). Look at how long the bolts are tightened if they are weakened, they can self-sustain and fall during movement. With long-term storage, electrical contacts are sometimes oxidized, they can be cleaned with a special tool for contacts.

What if you neglected the conservation?

If you neglected anti-corrosion conservation in the fall, rust may appear on untreated places in the winter. In an unfilled tank and the carburetor, moisture can accumulate, and the motorcycle itself will refuse to start. In this case, you will have to completely clean the tank and the carburetor, and with a strong rust replace them.

The battery is one of the most vulnerable parts of the motorcycle during winter period. The discharged battery will not give a motorcycle to ride after cold. The average life of the batteries varies from 2 to 5 years, but much depends on the storage conditions and the AKB brand. If the battery fails to revive with the help of a high-quality charger, you will have to buy a new battery.

Check the condition of the candles. With spoiled candles, the motorcycle will not start, in which case it is worth buying new candles. We recommend Japanese candles NGK.

If, after the manipulations conducted, the motorcycle does not start and does not come to life with the help of the "Tolkach", it is necessary to immediately take it into the Motorvice for diagnosis, you will need help professionals.

So, in this article we figured out how to make the motorcycle cleasing and start the motorcycle without problems and breakdowns. If you want with the onset of warm spring days immediately start riding a motorcycle, do not neglect simple rules Preservation, take care of the motorcycle, follow the wear of its parts and mechanisms, and keep it in a secure place. Then your bike will serve you for a long time, and the season will begin for you successfully. Remember that after winter on the road there may be reagents and other dirt that significantly affecting the grip with road coatingAnd asphalt will not be warm enough, be careful and observe the speed mode.

Simple ways to prepare a motorcycle to the new season
To ensure stable work, the bike before each season it is necessary to carry out the full diagnosis of your pet and correct the identified problems. In addition, the preparation of a motorcycle for the season includes charging the battery, checking current receivers.

Winter simple motorcycle contributes to the appearance of corrosion on contacts. To get rid of rust, you should clean all the terminals and wires, lubricating them with a special fluid.

What happens if you exploit the bike without preparing?
Many owners seeing the sun and dry asphalt outside the window, roll out their motorcycle to the street and after a long period, all the forces from the bike are squeezed. Reached high speed, the knock on the motor, the loss of oil, shooting in the muffler and other problems. This is due to downtime and unpreparedness. So it turns out that instead of joy from the trip, the hosts are engaged in repairing faults. If you do not want to spend most of the summer in the garage, spend preparatory work in advance.

Simple ways of training

So how to prepare a motorcycle for the season of warm nights and dry asphalt? In case you have a budget, it will best give a bike to the service center. There will hold full-fledged diagnostics and check the engine and gearbox on the dynamometer stand. The identified malfunctions is better replaced in early spring.

Before each new season is worth it:

• verification of the motor on a dynamometer stand;
• replacement of spark plugs;
• replacement of air filter;
• replacement of oil and filters in the engine;
• cleaning and adjusting the carburetor (for carburetor engines).

Every two seasons in no way forget to replace:

1. brake fluid, followed by pumping brakes;
2. brake pads;
3. antifreeze.

There is also a regulation on the operation, which is prescribed by replacing certain parts and consumables to achieve a certain kilometer. Carefully learn this list.

Main troubles

After a long holiday, breakdowns may occur in the machine mechanisms. So, for example, a very frequent problem is a telescopic fork. Already at the first trip, the sealing can occur. This is due to their sticking with pipes and forks. To eliminate this problem, before exploitation, it is necessary to carefully lubricate all the impacts with anti-corrosion facilities.

Also check the pressure in the wheels. Long stay in the garage for surely served the tires in the tires, especially if they are blunt. At the same time, it is impossible to forget about the integrity of rubber. Check the tread for cracks and cuts. Such defects can cause a break at the time of movement.

Translation of a motorcycle from summer on winter mode

In the case of the occurrence of the cold season, most owners cover chrome details of their pets with vaseline and add to the oil cylinders to avoid corrosion of parts. But, what to do those who use a motorcycle even in the cold season?

First of all, operation in winter time Quickly discharge the battery, so you need to charge it as often as possible. It is best to charge on the middle current for a long time. Also before use should be replaced consumables on the:

• butter winter type in gearbox and motor;
• low-resistant lubrication of brakes;
• elevated electrolyte density battery;
• winter tires with spikes.

Now the demi-season oil is most often used, which is suitable for both summer and winter period. If you use it, then it is optional.
Also do not forget to remove water from all parts of the motorcycle. For example, in fuel tank Often accumulates a significant mass of fluid. If you do not eliminate it before the trip, there will be a big risk of freezing the fuel hose and blocking the supply of fuel into the combustion chamber.

These are the main ways to prepare a bike before the new season. Their observance will help provide proper exploitation And long operation of the motorcycle.

Hai, dear readers categories for not lazy guests site! We have already told you about the features of Moto conservation for the winter. There were also tips on the winter ride on the bikes. Now it was a queue to describe the preparation of a motorcycle to the new season, which finally comes into combating motorcycosis.

Before switching to the active operation of two / tricycles, it is necessary to prepare it correctly for the next motorcycle season.

Removing a bike with "conservation"

Preparation of a motorcyclist for the season begins with the implementation of several right proceduresconcerning acb ( rechargeable battery). In the cold period of the year, all batteries, as a rule, are significantly losing the container. Serious energy loss during the winter idle time, respectively, will lead to explicit excesses in the future starting engine. First of all, it will touch the bike, which is equipped with electrical starters.

Timely preparation of motorcycle battery will allow you to get closer to the successful first launch of the engine of the steel horse after the offseason. It is important to remember that in front of winter storage (preservation) you probably installed the plugs into all two / tricycle holes. Now it's time to get rid of the latter. Only this preparation of Moto to the first launch will give guarantees for success in the safety of the performance of the main bike nodes.

Do not miss in moto-preparation!

Removing the plugs from the holes exhaust system (silencer), air filter, and gas tank, for example, can be processed to the following "non-hard" procedure. First you need to unscrew the spark plugs. Then we break the main engine shafts several times using a kick starter or electrostarter for these purposes. Such an approach will allow to protect the spark plugs from "pouring" (clogging) with excessive amount of fuel or oil (the latter in the process of winter conservation Moto-technique pours into the cylinders every caring mechanic). After all this we return the candles in place.

Preparation of a motorcycle for the season after cold weather also provides for conducting mandatory verification The presence of a sufficient number of all working fluids in the main nodes of the bike. This concerns machine oil, antifreeze, brake fluid, etc. (depending on what Mozik you have). All consumables must correspond to the level that was set by the manufacturer.

It will not be superfluous and checking the air filter during the training of moto to ride over long distances. The latter is better to blow when used compressed air. And even better to install a new filter.

Now you can actively position the fuel canter under the gas tank and go to the engine start. After the start of the motor, it is necessary to wait for the warm-up engine to the operating temperature. Well, then check the tire pressure, the performance of the brake system and after adjusting the mirrors, we go to conquer the new horizons of the new motorcycle season ...
