Batuti Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Here's my checklist for getting my motorcycle ready for the seasonTiresI check not only the tread but also the overall condition of the tires. Even if the tires are almost new, it's still best to inspect them carefully.BrakesI always check the brake system:brake fluid levelfluid colorpad and rotor wearBatteryI check the charge level and recharge if necessary. I also clean the terminals to ensure they are clean and securely fastened.SuspensionI inspect the front fork and rear shock absorber for leaks, and check the wheel bearings, play, and unusual noises.Oil and fluidsI change the engine oil. I also check other technical fluids.ChainI clean, lubricate, and adjust the tension.Appearance and protective filmI decided to freshen up the appearance a bit. I replaced the protective film on the tank because it already had scratches and chips.I didn't do anything drastic, but the bike now looks much fresher. I ordered it from a company I found online.If anyone's interested, here's the result and the link:https://w-inkco.com/Overall, the prep wasn't too difficult, but with this checklist, I'm starting the season feeling much more at ease.Question for you:How do you prepare your motorcycles?What do you look for first when buying a motorcycle?How do you improve the appearance of your motorcycle?
