Maintaining a bike is not an easy task >driving bikes can be done by any Tom Dick and Harry BUT Maintaining it, keeping its drive smooth is not the cup of tea for everybody .So here are few tips which will help you in Maintaining your bike
1. Tyre Air Pressure: Ensure tyre pressures are maintained at manufacturer recommended levels. Different pressures are recommended for single seat and pillion riding, observe them to squeeze out the optimum mileage. Over-inflated tyres do result in better mileage but play havoc with the ride, handling and stability, so don’t get desperate.
2. Brakes: Both the brakes should have the right amount of free play. To check that brakes are not binding, put the bike on the main stand and ensure that both the wheels turn freely.
3. Chain: The chain should be well lubricated and have the right amount of slack.
