Although there are many differences between the two vehicles, motorcycles and scooters, in terms of law and in the opinion of the common people, both are motorcycles. In this case, the rider of the scooter considers himself different from the normal motorcyclist and from this thought, many times scooter rider neglects many small things, which causes a lot of damage on both rider and his/her scooty.
So let's take a look at some general things you need to keep in mind while driving a scooter:
• Must wear a helmet.
• Carry scooters necessary papers and documents as the traffic police does not or will not give a discount as a scooty.
• Do not over speed, drive in a speed as much as you can control.
• The weight of the scooter is generally light so try to balance with your scooters weight.
• Change the Mobil on time and get servicing done after a certain time.
• Scooters have small wheels, so learn how to ride on broken roads as there is a chance of skidding on sand, mud and gravel etc. just while riding just be extra careful about this.
• If your scooter does not have tubeless tyres, get tubeless as the mechanics don't want to repair those when punctured.
• Do not allow anyone to drive your scooter if possible.
• Check the tire pressure with and without pillion written on the manual that located under the seat.
• Don't go for extra lighting to bring more style as it causes problems in battery charging.
• Ride at a safe distance from rickshaws and CNG auto rickshaws. By this way the scooter will have a long life with its natural beauty.
Apart from this, if any matter arises in your mind for caution, then definitely try to follow it yourself and don’t forget to share it with us.
