In summer it’s important to keep the bike’s air filter clean as it quickly gets clogged with dust and dirt these days. Higher temperatures put more pressure on the bike’s tires, so it’s necessary to maintain the right air pressure to prevent punctures or blowouts.
Also, avoid parking the motorcycle in direct sunlight and refrain from filling the tank to the brim with fuel. Additionally, cleaning the engine fins helps keep it cool.
During the hot weather, getting the bike serviced on time can prevent many types of issues. Additionally, it’s important to keep checking the engine oil. If its level has dropped or if the oil has deteriorated, replace it immediately. Because this is crucial in preventing your engine from overheating.
For bikes with liquid-cooled engines, maintaining the coolant level and checking the radiator is also advisable.
