Check your Motorbike by yourself

Mobil

The important thing we should first check is Mobil in motorbike. If the liquid is in less amount it may affect the engine. Generally it is recommended to change Mobil after running upto 1500 kms or maybe more depending upon the type   ofmobil. If we change the Mobil lately like after 2000 kms problem may arise on the engine. The bike doesnot run smoothly.

Air filter

Our bike engine runs with the combustion of oil and air. The Airfilter on our bike blocks the dust particles from entering to the engine and supply relatively pure air for combustion. We can use it by cleaning on every servicing time and change at every 5000 kms.

Carburetor

It maintains constant supply of air and oil to the engine on the bike. If we ride motorbike on high speed the carburetor is more active. Often during cold season we use choke which is attached to the carburetor to start the engine.

We can know that carburetor is working or not by the sound of the engine.

Fuel pipe

It supply oil from fuel tank to the engine. We should check the fuel pipe often to ensure the leak of oil or obstruction on the pipe. It is good to change the pipe rather than re mend it in case of damage.

Brake or brake oil

This is very delicate part of the motorbike. It may lead to an accident if not properly checked. The brake oil in Disc-brake bikes is used for operating the brake smoothly every time the user press the brake handles.

Tyre

We should check tyre pressure before every ride to ensure safety ride. The pressure must be maintained according to the recommendation. Likewise in Tubeless tyres liquid in them should be change if the pressure of the tyresdecreases  at rapid rate after refilling air also.

There are other   things that the bike user may check by themselves to ensure the durability of motorbike and their own safety.
