jonno Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Hi there i was wondering what sort of checks i should do after/before every ride, i own a 99 techno, at the moment after every ride i wash the bike, degrease the chain ect then re grease it, check water level, spray the engine area in something like dw40, clean the air filter and go round with a spanner/allen keyt checking things are tight, is there anything major im missing that i should be checking? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrybaines Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 I empty mine after every ride just too be sure plus it eliminates any possible flooding/starting problems for your next ride and gives you and idea if any crap is getting through your filter. And its only a 30 second job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
