DAPURPACUID – For those of you who have just finished touring on a motorbike, it’s a good idea to immediately check its condition again so that it remains optimal for activities.
The most important thing is to change the engine oil. There are many problems that will occur with motorbikes if this sector is not paid regular attention.
Without quality oil, the motorbike engine can break out too! But many people still don’t know, when is the right time to change engine oil?
Some are based on distance traveled or time, where the calculation here is months. So, so that you don’t make a mistake, read this explanation.
Based on Mileage
In general, motorbikes need to be replaced every time they cover a distance of between 2,000-3,000 km. This depends on the type of motor and oil used.
However, it is better to change the engine oil before reaching a distance of 3,000 km, so that the engine performance remains optimal when used for activities.
Based on Time
If the motorbike is rarely used, the oil still needs to be changed because the quality can decrease due to deposition and oxidation. The frequency of replacement can be done every 3-6 months.
For convenience, motorbike owners can follow the rules stated in the manual.
Signs that the oil needs to be changed
There is a sign that it is time to replace the engine oil. It is common for the engine to sound rougher than when changing the oil. The color can also change with use.
On the latest models, there is usually an indicator that informs the owner to immediately change the oil, which is shown by the oil pressure indicator being on.
Then the most fatal thing is that the engine performance is less responsive or slows down, which makes your activities a little disturbed, due to neglecting to change the engine oil.
Change the oil at an authorized repair shop or subscription
It is also worth paying attention to where is the best place to change the oil. It is best to do this at an official or regular repair shop, so that the engine oil used is guaranteed to be authentic.
At the official Honda workshop, aka AHASS, it is ensured that all procedures are adjusted to standards and carried out by mechanics who are definitely trained.
If you are busy or too lazy to visit the AHASS workshop, you can take advantage of the SEMOK (Mobile Motorcycle Service) service without needing to visit the workshop.
