1. Clean Your Dirt Bike
Start by thoroughly cleaning your Husqvarna TE125. Remove any dirt, mud, and debris from the bike's surface. Pay special attention to the chain, sprockets, and undercarriage. A clean bike is less likely to suffer from corrosion during storage.
2. Change the Oil & Filter
Old oil can contain contaminants that may damage your engine over time. Drain the old oil and replace it with fresh oil. Don't forget to change the oil filter as well. This step is crucial for maintaining engine health during the off-season.
3. Stabilize the Fuel
Add a fuel stabilizer to the gas tank to prevent the fuel from breaking down and causing issues in the fuel system. Run the engine for a few minutes to ensure the stabilizer circulates throughout the system.
4. Remove or Charge the Battery
If your TE125 has a battery, either remove it and store it in a cool, dry place or keep it on a trickle charger. This will help maintain the battery's lifespan and ensure it's ready for use when you need it.
5. Protect the Tires
Inflate the tires to the recommended pressure to prevent flat spots. If possible, elevate the bike on a stand to take the weight off the tires entirely.
6. Lubricate Moving Parts
Apply lubricant to the chain, cables, and any other moving parts. This will prevent rust and ensure smooth operation when you take your bike out of storage.
7. Cover & Store Properly
Finally, cover your Husqvarna TE125 with a breathable cover to protect it from dust and moisture. Store the bike in a dry, sheltered location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
By following these steps, you can ensure that your 2015 Husqvarna TE125 remains in excellent condition throughout the winter months. Proper maintenance and storage will help you avoid costly repairs and keep your bike ready for the next riding season.
