1. Regular Cleaning

You may not think of cleaning as a maintenance task, but it is actually one of the best ways to keep tabs on your motorcycle. Regularly cleaning your motorcycle will allow you to monitor signs of wear and identify any concerns before they become major problems. Plus, a clean motorcycle is easier to perform repairs on and is nice to look at!

2. Inspections

When you clean your motorcycle, you might as well complete an inspection, too. Look over all of the components, including the engine, tires, exhaust, and electrical components. Ideally, you should complete inspections before and after every ride.

3. Oil and Filter Changes

To keep your engine running well, you’ll want to change the oil and filters as recommended. Regular oil changes will provide the proper lubrication and temperature regulation for your engine! Plus, fresh filters will improve your performance.

4. Tire Care

Your motorcycle tires are critical for safety. Make sure to keep them inflated to the proper psi and address any worn tread or damage right away.

These four simple tasks can do wonders for the condition, safety, and performance of your motorcycle. Visit us in Corona, CA, to stock up on parts or schedule a service appointment. We proudly serve Temecula and Huntington Beach.
