Jakarta –
Do you often park motorbikes using side standards? It turns out that there is a bad impact lurking, here’s the explanation.
Motorcycles are usually equipped with a side stand and a center stand. Both function to maintain the position of the motorbike when it is parked. However, if you pay attention, the use of side standards is more often used by motorists.
Standard side is easier to use, because the motor does not need to carry the motor load. Only need to use the feet, then the standard is directly attached. Unlike the case with the middle standard where it takes extra energy to activate it.
However, the use of side standards must also look at the condition of the road surface. Avoid using the standard side on the way down or uphill. On the other hand, the use of standard side motors also has an impact in the long term.
Quoting the Federal Oil page, parking a motorbike with the standard side can cause the left side suspension to be heavier. This could potentially damage the shock breaker quickly because it often concentrates on one side.
In addition, avoid sitting on the motorbike in a standard side position. This can also affect the strength of the shock breaker itself. Tire quality can also decrease with frequent use of side standards when parking. That’s because the front tires or rear tires will only lean to one side and have to hold the excess weight. As a result motorcycle tires can be more quickly bald.
As much as possible, use the middle standard when parking the motorbike. The use of a center stand can make the position of the motorbike more stable because there are two legs that support the motorbike to the road surface.
If you already know its function, don’t forget to always carry out maintenance on the motor standard. Standard maintenance of the motorbike can be done by washing it, especially when used on dirty and muddy roads.
Apart from ensuring the standard cleanliness of the motorbike by washing it, use anti-rust liquid and then spray it on the per so it doesn’t corrode easily. Do not forget to lubricate the axle, so that the standard does not drag when used.
