JAKARTA - automatic motorbikes are a favorite choice for many consumers, especially when used on urban roads that often jam. In addition to easy operations that only require gas and brakes, automatic motors also have a larger luggage or baggage space. This makes it easier for motorists to store their belongings more practical.

Likewise, during the homecoming season, automatic motorbikes are quite dominant on the streets. So before planning to go home with an automatic motorbike, there are important things that need to be considered by automatic motorcycle users, what are they?

"Every official workshop has a clear SOP for each inspection. Just pay attention to the kilometers from the motorbike, there are automatic motor components that must be replaced regularly," said Effendy, owner of the AHAS Ramayana Motor workshop, Lenteng Agung, Jakarta, to VOI, Tuesday, April 4.

Meanwhile, Anto, the head of mechanics from this workshop, explained that the motor components that need to be replaced routinely.

"From this distance, not only engine oil and rail oil need to be replaced regularly, there are also Van Belt, Aki, Busi, air filters, brake camps, and others, if it is still good, of course we will not change it," said Anto.

He continued, sometimes the owner of the motorbike also ignores when asked for approval to replace the motor components that should have been replaced.

"If an automatic motorbike wants to be brought home, then the motor oil must be new. For use on the road, it's only natural, don't be forced too much because you want to hurry up to your destination," he ordered.

In addition to the above things that can be known from the workshop, for the sake of safety and smooth running during the homecoming trip, automatic motorcycle users also need to check the following components themselves.

Tire age

Motor automatic that is rarely used can sometimes make the owner neglect to check the condition of the motorcycle tire. This is usually due to the good condition of the tires, even though the tires themselves have age to use. The recommended age of the motorcycle tires is only around 1 to 2 years. More than that, it is recommended to immediately make a replacement.

Brake Campas

The condition of the brake camp, especially the front one, can be seen directly through the thickness of the disk or disk. However, the condition of the rear tire camp needs to be checked at the workshop when serving the motorbike.

Close the pentile

Even though it's small, don't ever trivialize the pentile cover, because it can get a ticket on the road. The function of the pentile cover is quite a lot from protecting and maintaining the pressure of the wind in the tire, the pentile cover can also prevent the potential for leaky tires or broken tires.

But once again, behind the comfort and practicality offered, going home on a motorbike also has a hazard to watch out for. Every year, the government urges people not to go home using motorbikes because this type of vehicle has the potential for high accidents on the road.

Homecoming motorcyclists are also prone to fatigue, dehydration, and sleep disorders due to tiring travel. This can interfere with physical and mental health, as well as reduce vigilance in driving.
