Cleaning and maintenance the Motorcycle! Preparing your self every time you go out for a ride is a good practice but cleaning and maintaining the bike will also keep your bike happy and running when you need it. It is also one of the reason why people crashed. People also crash because of failure on the motorcycle. For example if a foot peg broke down while your turning and your foot hit the ground or if not putting a safety pin over your axle wheel nut and your wheel fall off while riding on the freeway at 65mile per  hour. It would be a Disaster!!

According to BikerHiway “New Motorcycles have a break in period of about 500-1000 miles and require an oil change. Most oil changes after the break in period are anywhere from 3,000 to 5000 miles or every 3-6 months.” Maintaining the bike mean changing the motor oil, check your front and rear brake fluid level, check all break pads to see if they have life left on them, Check for leaks under the bike, check the tires for cracks nail etc. check all bolts and nuts for loosen. Emotorcycle state that keeping up with your motorcycle maintenance is important! and for more information on how to maintenance the bike look in the owner manual for more informations
