Prepare your bike before going for a ride How sad to arrive at your favorite circuit with a bike that doesn't work... 3AS RACING helps you list the essential points to check before riding. Cockpit: Remember to check the tightness of your controls (clutch, brake, throttle, bridges, fork yokes) and adjust them according to your riding style. A little cable lubrication won't hurt if you feel a tight spot. Use the 3AS greaser ➡http://bit.ly/greaser You can also bleed the air from your fork (for spring forks) by unscrewing the eccentric screw. Air filter: Prepare your air filter according to the riding conditions: a sock for sand, an over-filter in case of rain. Remember to take a second spare filter with you in case of dust. Tire pressure: Very important for riding comfort and to avoid any risk of puncture! Start with a pressure of 1kg at the rear and front for a standard setting. If you ride in sand or mud, lower the pressure at the front (800-900gr) If you ride enduro, you can start with 800-900gr at the front, 700-800 at the rear if you have reinforced tubes. Spoke tension: A sensitive element for the longevity of your rims, the tension must be checked regularly, especially for new wheels. Be careful to use the spoke wrench specific to your nipples, the best is to use the torque wrench available here: ➡ http://bit.ly/clearayon Do not overtighten and ensure the same tension between each spoke. Take the opportunity to tighten your gripster, this will prevent you from tearing the valve off your inner tube. Pad wear: Brake pads can sometimes wear out very quickly, which is why it is essential to check the remaining thickness to avoid wearing out the discs. Screws: Arm yourself with an 8, 10, 12mm T-bolt and a few flat wrenches to check all the screws. In particular the crown nuts, selector screws, kick screws, brake pedal that you can mount with Loctite thread lock ➡ http://bit.ly/freinfil Chain: Check the tension of your chain, the measurement is sometimes indicated on the swingarm, otherwise in the machine's workshop manual. A little dab of IPONE chain grease and that's it. ➡ http://bit.ly/spraychaineipone Footrests: The footrests must be checked at the spring level, fold the footrest and check the spring effect. You can grease them at ➡ http://bit.ly/aerosol200 Coolant: Check the coolant level and add if necessary. Be careful not to fill above the manufacturer's limit. Battery: For motorcycles equipped with a battery, check its charge using a tester and let it work during the winter with a suitable charger: ➡ http://bit.ly/chargerbatterie Warming up the motorcycle: This is the time to warm it up, at idle without giving violent bursts of gas. Little tip, the motorcycle is ready to ride when the radiators are hot at the cap. The track is yours, all that's left to do is enjoy this moment! 3as racing, the largest selection of motorcycle parts https://www.3as-racing.com/ Our FB: / 3asracing Our Instagram: / 3as_racing With Doctor Biclou And Simon Peterolff from @SIMONSGARAGE Youtube: / simonsgarage Directed by @MartinPeterolff and produced by @Khulan-agency http://www.khulan-agency.com/
