The temperatures are rising, the weather is getting better and in the next few days the first bikers will start doing their tours again. But before they set off, she should check the condition of the bikes. the Tubes are a particularly important part of the two-wheeler. They must be checked at least like the engine. The law gives one Minimum tire tread depth of 1,6 mm in front. However, the Institute for Two-wheeler Safety writes that motorcyclists should not come too close to this limit. It should be as soon as the tread depth is less than two millimeters, prefer new tires to be fitted to the motorcycle. As a result, the bike has good grip on the road even in the rain and the safety of the driver and other road users is also guaranteed. By the way, certain tire models have one wear indicator, where ridges in the grooves indicate how much tread depth the tire still has. However, it is more accurate if the tread depth is set manually with an analog or digital plug gauge is checked.
What is the condition of the tires?
Within the condition control checked to see if there are cracks in the tire or if foreign objects have gotten into it. It is best to use a bright flashlight to check. This means that even small changes in status can be seen. Incidentally, when the tire gets too old, it should also be replaced. New tires should be fitted after ten years at the latest, even if the profile is still OK. Incidentally, the age of the tires can be determined by the DOT number determine on the flank (e.g. 1513). Here the first two numbers indicate the week (in our example week 15) and the last two indicate that calendar year (in our example 2013) at. It is also important that the tire has the correct tire pressure, and that this is checked regularly. And they are too valve caps fixed? Safe valve caps protect the tire from dirt getting into the valve or even the tire. They can also prevent pressure losses when driving. That's why the caps should before the start of the season to be checked.
