Routine Maintenance Keeps Your Bike Running Stronger and Longer

Routine dirt bike maintenance is something you've got to do regularly to keep your ride from getting clapped out or looking roached. If you require a bit of help in this department, the articles below, if followed with consistency, WILL ensure a continually reliable, functional and good running dirt bike.

The Benefits of Routine Dirt Bike Maintenance

  • Extending the life of a dirt bike that wasn't cheap.
  • Having a dirt bike that performs at it's best.
  • Possibly saving someone from a trip over the bars.
  • Preventing a breakdown
  • Avoiding any unnecessary embarrassment
  • Just having peace of mind that everything is the way it's supposed to be.

After A Ride or Race, Not Before

Doing the maintenance after a ride vs before will allow more time to order parts should something be worn out, bent, broken or missing, as well as leaving you enough time for performing what needs to be done on the next ride or race. Performing the maintenance listed below will prevent you from being on the starting gate, or geared up ready to hit the trail and be kicking the bike for 30 minutes while everyone else is waiting for you, not to mention the embarrassment and unplanned work out that generally comes with this.

Maintenance to Avoid Future Troubles

Of course, one of the main benefits of proving the proper upkeep for your dirt bike is that certain issues are less likely to present themselves in the future. To that end, it's important to ensure your airbox is sealed. If it isn't, debris and water can get in. Waterproof your electrical and ignition system. This is a no brainer. Water and electric parts don't mix. Getting water in these parts can prevent your bike from starting if not totally trash your motor.
