This is how to look after your motorbike when the rainy season has arrived – For some Indonesian citizens, motorbikes are the most functional transportation facility. Even though the rainy season has now arrived, motorbikes are still the preferred transportation option.

So that the motorbike can function optimally, there must be several maintenance methods that need to be carried out by the rider. Astra Motor also shares several tips for motorbike maintenance during the rainy season.

Quoted from the official Astra Motor website, one of the main things that riders need to do is immediately clean the motorbike after going through the rain.

This needs to be done because rainwater contains acid which can cause rapid corrosion of several motorbike parts. This means that immediately cleaning the automatic motorbike can reduce the appearance of corrosion on several parts of the motorbike.

Next, continue checking several electrical parts of the motorbike. If there is any remaining water in the electrical part, dry it immediately with a cloth.

Apart from that, don't forget to check the other side, especially the cables, whether there are any open ones or not. Therefore, immediately cover the cable, because it can cause a short circuit when exposed to rainwater.

So, for vehicles that use chains to drive the rear wheels, the chain is one of the important things to remember. Generally, vehicle chains are not equipped with chain covers so it is really recommended to always clean the chain from all types of dirt attached to it.

What's more, during the rainy season like this, dirt sticks to that part more easily. Clean this side until it is really clean, so that the vehicle's speed remains smooth without disturbing noises.

For automatic vehicles, drivers are advised to always check the condition of the axle oil. Remember, during the rainy season, water has more potential to enter the transmission or axle and can mix with the transmission oil. If the oil has really been contaminated by water, it is recommended to immediately change the axle oil.
