Weather's warmer, getting ready to ride, now what?
#1
Some de-winterizing tips:
  • Check fluid levels (oil, coolant, brake)
    Check tire pressures as they will be low
    Check for any oil leaks on and under the motorcycle where it has been sitting
    Check all lights, brakes, cables, chain, etc


Safety tips:
  • You will be rusty from not riding during the winter, take it easy, let the skills come back to you.
    Even if the air temperature is warmer, the road temperature will remain cold until later in the spring. Motorcycle tires are designed to work best when the roads and tires are hot.
    Even if you don't see salt on the roads, it may be present from the previous night. The salt from the roads can corrode exhaust, chrome and paint so rinse your motorcycle if you suspect they may have salted the roads
