Usb Charging:
Optional or absent, depending on the specific model year and configuration. Manual will specify if present.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 3,000 - 6,000 km or 6-12 months, refer to manual for exact interval based on usage and oil type.
Air Filter Service:
Inspect every 3,000-6,000 km, clean or replace as needed. More frequent service if operated in dusty conditions.
Spark Plug Replacement:
Inspect every 6,000-12,000 km, replace as needed or per manual recommendation.
Chain Maintenance:
Lubricate and adjust chain every 500-1,000 km, or as needed, depending on conditions.
Engine Oil Type:
API SG, SH, SJ or higher, SAE 10W-40 or 20W-50 motorcycle-specific oil recommended. Consult manual for precise viscosity and API rating.
Brake Fluid Type:
DOT 3 or DOT 4 hydraulic brake fluid. Always use fresh, sealed fluid.
Coolant Type:
If liquid-cooled, typically a 50/50 mix of ethylene glycol-based antifreeze and distilled water. Refer to manual for specific type and ratio.
Electrical Connections:
Corrosion or loose connections, especially in weather-exposed areas, can lead to intermittent electrical faults. Regular inspection and dielectric grease application recommended.
Carburetor Tuning:
Carburetors can become misadjusted over time, leading to poor running, starting issues, or fuel economy problems. Regular cleaning and adjustment are important.
Chain And Sprockets:
Wear on chain and sprockets is a common maintenance item. Proper lubrication and adjustment extend life, but eventual replacement is necessary.
Sachs Motorcycles:
