What do I have to check before leaving on a trip with my motorcycle?

Motorcycle is synonymous of adventure, and with the summer, the longer days and the good weather, we like escapes, trips, vacations and endless routes, but we cannot forget that the motorcycle also needs a bit of love, from time to time, to be able to offer us the best of itself.

Before embarking on a trip with our motorcycle it is convenient that we make a good review to leave with peace of mind and with the certainty that everything is in order to avoid foreseeable incidents in our adventure.

For this reason, it is highly recommended that we review it well in advance:

  • The state of wear of the tires, as well as check, before leaving, the tire pressure. In case we detect an advanced wear or any anomaly, it is advisable that we go to the workshop and replace them before leaving.
  • The level of the different liquids (oil, coolant and brake fluid), as well as checking that there are no leaks in any of the circuits. It is also advisable that, in case we are going to travel many kilometers, or if the next revision is due soon, we go to our trusted workshop to carry out the corresponding maintenance before leaving on a trip, in order to do it with the motorcycle in optimal conditions.
  • We also have to check the status of the fre tablets (we explain it here).
  • We can not forget to check the status of the transmission kit (we explain how here), as well as clean, clean and, if necessary, tighten the transmission chain. This will make driving smoother and safer.

If you have any doubt, you can come to see us and we will advise you without obligation.
