DAPURPACUID – When you buy a new motorbike and arrive home, there is special treatment that must be carried out, one of which is the idle period.
This period still needs to be carried out by new motorbike owners to maximize performance and maintain the condition of vehicle components. Including ensuring that there are no problems when using it.
Break-in or break-in is an adaptation process, aka adjusting vehicle components. Of course, at this time, consumers must follow the instructions stated in the service book or owner’s manual and warranty.
Main Honda Motorcycle Dealer in Jakarta-Tangerang, PT Wahana Makmur Sejati (WMS) has several effective tips that consumers can apply. Here are the tips:
Stable Vehicle Speed
Consumers are advised not to drive their new motorbike to the maximum when using it for the first 500 km, with a maximum speed of 50 km/hour. It is also recommended that the engine speed (RPM) not be too high during the idle period, so that the engine components will remain maintained.
Avoid Extreme Driving
For new motorbikes, consumers are advised not to brake suddenly under any conditions. In the first 500 km, the tire’s grip also adapts, making it very dangerous to drive on wet or slippery roads.
Don’t Carry Excessive Loads
Based on the manual, there is information regarding the weight that the motorbike can carry. During the current period, consumers are advised not to bring items that exceed the weight limit so that the life of the components is not reduced.
Change Motor Oil Periodically
In the service book there is information that consumers are required to change the oil after traveling 1,000 km. This aims to clean the components from metal debris resulting from friction, so that there is no accumulation of residual particles in the engine.
Follow the Handbook
By following the instructions in the owner’s manual, your motorbike components will be in better condition and will last longer. Of course, this is supported by a non-aggressive driving style.
PT Wahana Makmur Sejati Training Analyst, Wahyu Budhi, said that every new Honda motorbike will of course be tested and tested first before being delivered to consumers.
“However, it would be better for consumers to also carry out maintenance to maximize performance and prevent component damage,” added Wahyu, in his official broadcast.
Apart from the initial process, consumers are also advised to immediately adapt to their new motorbike, starting from the driving position, handling, braking and opening the gas lever to prevent the risk of accidents on the road.
According to Wahyu, adapting to a new motorbike sometimes takes longer for consumers, especially for those who have just owned one. However, this must still be done.
“After getting used to it, consumers must prioritize driving safety so that they always #Search_Safe and don’t experience incidents while driving,” he concluded. (dpid/TH)
