CHECKING, PREVENTING, AND SERVICING DURING FLOOD CONDITION
1. Check the spark plug cover for any leak. Replace with new one when necessary or bring a backup. This leak can also be overcome by adding temporary seal / insulation to the spark plug.
2. Clean the brakes periodically to keep them clean and work at optimal condition. If it is thin, replace it immediately.
3. If the flood level is high, you should also prepare cut used tires to be installed / tied on the exhaust. So that the water does not get inside the exhaust nor engine, and the exhaust gases can be channeled out through this used tire.
4. Always prepare dry fabric to dry the spark plug.
5. When riding with flooded motorcycle, always pull the gas so that the engine will be kept on running while we keep certain level of braking to maintain the motorcycle speed (keep the brake shoe dry).
6. Perform tuning / lubricating the chain periodically. Lubrication of chains and bearings that had been submerged in water can be repeated after passing through a puddle of water / flood.
7. Check the tire air pressure according to wet/ dry condition.
8. Always use ASPIRA and Federal parts , the recommended quality parts by PT Astra Otoparts Tbk.
