What can be the problem if the motorcycle is not used for a long time

Although the motorcycle is a daily use item, many times the motorcycle is not used for a long time due to various reasons, as we have seen during the lockdown, and most recently in the condition of the country, many people are not able to ride their bike. If a bike is not used for a long time, several problems can arise. Today we will discuss what problems a bike can cause if it is not used for a long time and what is the solution.

Problem:

• If the bike is stopped for a long time, the battery charge may decrease, and sometimes it decreases so much that even after starting the bike, the meter does not show, sometimes the shelf start does not work, the horn does not work and the headlight of the bike does not light up. In this case the battery will be identified as a critical issue.

• Bikes left for long periods of time can get rodent nests and damage the bike's air filter and bearings.

• Because the engine is not running, the engine oil goes down due to which the engine smoothness of the bike decreases and a kind of silt accumulates in the engine oil due to which the engine oil does not work as before.

• Many times the bike tire gets air out and the tire gets stuck and later the tire bursts in different places. Riding the bike in this condition may damage the rim.

• In addition, the bike that has not been used for a long time has various problems due to various parts including dust.



Solution:

• If the bike is started after many days, first check whether there are any kind of rats, snakes or not. Then start the bike by kick starting the bike.

• Start the bike for some time, after that if the engine oil rises up, you can continue the bike for some time to see if everything is fine.

• Lubricate the bike chain and check the air pressure.

• If the battery charge is low, it can be recharged later, but if it doesn't work, the battery needs to be changed.

• Wash the bike and replace any parts if needed.
