WINTERIZATION TIPS FOR MOTORCYCLES AND ATV'S
At this time of year, there are certain preventive maintenance procedures that will help protect your investment during times of longer storage or winterization.
* Slow charge the battery with a battery tender.
* Stabilize the fuel in the gas tank.
* Drain the carburetor and fuel lines.
* Lube and adjust cables.
* Spray corrosion protectant on engine components.
* check and adjust tire pressure.
NOTE: Your riding style, riding conditions, and service intervals will dictate how much effort will be required to preform the above tips. In addition to these, you may need the following (check your owner's manual):
* Compression check.
* Check steering head bearings.
* Check valves.
*Check and lubricate chassis/suspension.
We do recommend that you have an authorized dealer preform winterization procedures so that any additional services recommended by the manufacturer can be taken care of at the time.
When spring rolls around, or you have a nice day for a ride, you'll need to basically reverse a few steps:
* Re-connect the battery.
* Check the oil and tire pressure.
* Also, don't worry about riding your bike with the stabilizer in the gas. It's good for it! |

| WHY MOTORCYCLE / ATV MAINTENANCE IS SO IMPORTANT |
The old saying that "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" is especially true when you're talking about motorcycle and ATV maintenance and maintaining mechanical systems.
The following are the basics of motorcycle/ATV maintenance.
GENERAL INSPECTION:
Good motorcycle/ATV maintenance means a safe machine. A careful check of certain parts and systems must be made after periods of storage and frequently between the regular service intervals to determine if additional maintenance is necessary.
The following items should be checked regularly (and especially after your bike has been sitting for awhile):
1. Tires - For correct pressure, abrasions, or cuts.
2. Drive belt and / or chain - For proper tension.
3. Brakes, steering, and throttle - for responsiveness.
4. Brake fluid - For level and condition.
5. Hydraulic lines and fittings - For leaks.
6. Brake pads and disks - For excessive or disproportionate wear.
7. Cables - For fraying or crimping and free operation.
8. Engine and transmission lube - For proper levels.
9. Wheel spokes (if applicable) - For tightness.
10. Headlamp, tail lamp, brake lamp and directional lamps - For proper operation.
Our Service Department can help you with anything that your bike may need.
