What should be noted when a motorcycle is parked for a long time?

[DiMichael]

When parking a motorcycle for an extended period, the following precautions should be taken: 1. Perform thorough maintenance before storage: It is recommended to conduct a comprehensive service at a professional workshop, including oil change, battery charging, chain lubrication and rust prevention for standard motorcycles, tire inflation, and car washing. Any faults or potential issues should be repaired promptly. 2. Proper battery maintenance: Remove the battery and store it in a location that avoids both freezing and direct sunlight. Use a dedicated charger to recharge the battery once a month. A motorcycle is a two-wheeled or three-wheeled vehicle powered by a gasoline engine, steered by handlebars for front-wheel turning. It is lightweight, agile, and fast, widely used for patrols, passenger and cargo transportation, and also serves as sports equipment. Broadly speaking, motorcycles are categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, and touring bikes.
