Oil
Change every 3,000 miles or 6 months. Use 10W-40 synthetic oil. Always replace the oil filter during oil changes to remove impurities and maximize engine protection.
Maintenance tip: Check oil levels before every long ride.
Air Filter
Inspect every 6,000 miles. Clean or replace if dirty to ensure optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency.
Warning sign: Poor acceleration or decreased fuel economy.
Tires
Check pressure weekly. Inspect for wear every 5,000 miles. Replace when tread depth reaches minimum specification or if cracks develop.
Safety tip: Properly inflated tires improve handling and fuel efficiency.
Brakes
Examine brake pads every 10,000 miles and replace when thin. Flush and refill brake fluid every two years to maintain stopping performance.
Critical check: Ensure even pad wear on both front and rear brakes.
Shaft Drive
Inspect every 5,000 miles. Check the rubber boot for cracks. The shaft drive requires minimal maintenance compared to chain drives.
Advantage: Cleaner operation with less regular maintenance than chain drives.
Coolant
Check levels during oil changes. Replace every two years to prevent overheating and maintain optimal engine temperature.
Prevention: Regular coolant changes help avoid expensive engine repairs.
Electrical System
Clean battery terminals every six months. Replace spark plugs every 15,000 miles for smooth engine operation.
Battery tip: Use a trickle charger during extended storage periods.
