7 Basic things you should know while doing Bajaj bike servicing

✔ Engine Oil Maintenance: 

The oil is the lifeblood of your bike engine. So, to keep your bike running smoothly, it is essential to check the oil level and quality. With a dipstick, you can check the oil level while the engine is cold, and if the oil is dirty or low, change it immediately. Additionally, it is best to use Bajaj genuine parts and oil for your bike for best results. However, you can also use a reputable brand that matches the bike's specifications. 

 

✔ Check and Clean the Air Filter:

It is essential to keep an eye on the air filter because a grimy air filter can significantly affect your bike's performance as it reduces engine power, increases fuel consumption, and can be the potential cause for premature wear and tear. Also, when riding on dusty or dirty roads, you should consider changing the air filter more often. You can clean and replace the air filter yourself or take your bike to a Bajaj service center. 

 

✔ Inspect the Brakes:

As one of the integral parts of your bike, brakes are meant to be inspected regularly. Worn-out brake pads or low brake fluid can lead to reduced braking performance or complete failure, leading to dangerous situations. Therefore, check the brake pads and brake fluid level regularly and replace them every one or two years before they come into contact with the metal and top up the brake fluid if necessary. And in case you hear any unusual noises while braking, consult a mechanical help.

 

✔ Inspect your bike's Chain and Sprocket:

The chain and sprocket are essential parts of the bike's power transmission system. Check the chain tension and lubrication regularly. To extend your bike's lifespan, lubricate the chain using a good-quality lubricant. Replace the sprocket if worn out, as it can cause the chain to wear out faster and reduce power transmission efficiency.

 

✔ Check the Bike's Battery:

The battery is the powerhouse of the bike, and hence its condition should be good enough for a smooth ride. So, as a part of servicing,  ensure that your bike's distilled level is appropriate and with fully charged batteries. Also, clean the terminals and lubricate them well. Additionally, you can test if the lights, horn, accelerator and other bike electricals are functioning correctly.

 

✔ Check the Tires:

Proper tire maintenance is vital for a safe and comfortable ride. So, periodically examine the condition of the tires and replace worn or damaged tires. Ensure that the alignment of wheels, as improper alignment can lead to uneven tire wear and reduce your bike's stability. Also, to prolong the tire's life span, check the tire pressure regularly with a gauge and ensure it matches the recommended PSI. Additionally you can avoid excessive sun exposure to keep your tires fit!

 

✔ Test Ride:

After completing all the servicing, finally, take your Bajaj bike for a test ride which will help you to ensure that everything is functioning correctly and that your bike's performance has not been affected by the servicing. Test the brakes, clutch, gears, and suspension, and ensure no unusual noises or vibrations. It is also an excellent opportunity to enjoy a leisurely ride on your bike and experience the results of your maintenance work.
