Although designed in such a way that the claimed anti-air, but the possibility of some components on the bike can still be "cold" due scalded. It helps us check and anticipate that performance is maintained even motorcycle rain began to rise recently.
, There are some components that are prone to take in water and has the potential to inhibit the rate of motorcycle. "In the rainy season, we should be ready with the worst. Check tire pressure and tread, lights, and brakes were mandatory. But there are several other components that are vulnerable to water, "he said.
This is the component that can make a motorcycle "fussy" when exposed to rain:
1. Brake lining. If the drum is still a model, then the condition of the canvas is thin. When the intruding water, the drum (inside) of the iron plates meet with canvas that has been discharged. Characteristics, if the brakes squeak, or if the vehicle will come in contact with water.
2. Cables gas. There is a link between the lever (handle) with a cable that is usually covered by a special rubber (booth). Make sure the rubber nice and not brittle. Because if this rubber is not functioning properly, the water will easily enter the gas cable. In effect, the lever will drag due to rust in the gas cable. Another possibility is the entry of water into the carburetor through the cable gas.
3. Cop plugs. Many cases, the cop had broken spark plug and grounded power lead to brittle due to hit the water. This component is recorded at the most to make motorists have to stop at the edge because the bike off flooded. The trick, the ceramic spark plugs or suburban cop sprayed WD-40, or smeared Griss that can withstand the heat. Many are close to the insulation, but it is not recommended. When you need to replace only the worn spark plugs cop,
4. Air filter. Had never suggested removing the air filter. Because in addition to making quick dirty carburetor due to deposition of dust, water can enter the combustion chamber and cause the engine to die.
