COVID-19 has not only locked us but our vehicles as well. We had to use for only a short time to buy groceries or medicines. As a known matter of fact, if overusing a product is dangerous, not using them at least for a considerable amount of time is more dangerous for their overall performance. Look for the best two-wheeler insurance in India.
Start them whenever possible: We cannot drive unless it is mandatory. But we can still keep the engine switched on at times. It is always good to start the engine for about 10 minutes once in 3 or 4 days. This will keep the battery fully charged. Battery life matters. Keep them full if not battery will develop dead cells resulting in an exchange of your two-wheeler battery.
Clean them: Cleaning them is not only crucial for your two-wheeler’s health, but it helps you as well. Wash your two-wheeler at least once a week and dust them whenever possible. Use the two-bucket method. Wash them off with flowing water once and tap them dry using a soft and try towel.
In case you had a drive, make sure to clean with alcoholic cleaners in the most used areas of your two-wheeler like your key, key holder, handlebar, seat, kicker(if you have one) mirrors. Alcoholic cleaners, or soap water, be it any cleaners, make sure to keep the two-wheeler clean.Protect them from the environment: Keep them covered when not used. You can hide your two-wheeler using two-wheelers covers, or you can cover them using any bed sheets at home. Rats, rodents tend to chew the chain, park them away from sewage lines. Keep them on the centre stand rather than the side stand, which will help your two-wheeler weight be balanced. Keeping them under sunlight for a long time will cause the paint to wear. Park in a shaded area and also make sure it’s not a spot for bird droppings.
