Ever wanted to know how to service your bike? Not the engine stripping, race tuning, complete rebuild type of knowledge gained by qualified mechanics; just simple, basic tasks like adjusting a chain, checking tyre pressures, oil changing and how to carry out basic service checks? Even if you don’t intend to work on your own bike, having that knowledge will make you more aware of your bike’s condition, its safety and the likely cost of paying someone to carry out that servicing. Most motorcycle training schools in the UK cover very basic service checks at CBT (Compulsory Basic Training) level.
