A motorcycle requires maintenance before riding, especially if it has been sitting for a while, such as during the colder months. A key maintenance factor to consider in this situation is the condition of the brake fluid, which many people might overlook.
Over time, brake fluid in a bike will absorb water from the air, and the brakes themselves might seize up. These conditions can result in the brakes feeling spongy. At the very least, you should take a look at the brake fluid levels and add the correct brake fluid for the bike if need be before riding. You should also check the brake discs and remove and corrosion from them, as well as remove protective fluid you might have applied before putting the bike in storage.
However, to be safe and to help ensure the motorcycle is in good condition, you might flush the braking system with fresh fluid. The brake pads might require replacing as well. With this type of ongoing maintenance, you can extend your motorcycle’s life.
