Six important tips for wintering motorcycles & scooters

Armin Weigel / DPA-TMN Bye, until next spring! Who does not use his motorcycle or scooter over the winter, should pay attention when turning off.

If you want to start in the spring of 2022 again with your motorcycle in the new season again, should already lay the foundation. Because with some tricks the bike comes well through the winter.

1. Cleaning: Before turning off, the motorcycle should be thoroughly cleaned and dried, says the GTu. This also applies to poorly accessible areas.
2. Refueling: To prevent corrosion in the sheet tank, should be filled as full as possible. Plastic tanks, on the other hand, should be better empty, says the GTu. Otherwise, fuel components could escape through the plastic wall.
3. Inflating: Who puts its motorcycle for wintering on the wheels, should increase the air pressure by 0.5 bar. This prevents standing plates. Who can, Bocks his two-wheeler better.
4. Frost safety: The level of coolant should be right. If the two-wheeler is exposed to minus degrees in winter quarters, the concentration of antifreeze should fit in addition.
5. Power Storage: The GTu recommends expanding the battery and store it on a dry, cool and frost-proof location. Charge the battery from time to time – practically is an automatic charger with a special preservation cycle. In conventional batteries, it is obvious to check the acid level and to replenish if necessary until marking with distilled water. Also maintenance-free batteries should be better disconnected to protect them from a depth discharge.
6. Stand: It is best to park the motorcycle over the winter in a dry, well-ventilated room. A hood of air-permeable material keeps dust away and still leaves an air exchange.
