Bike Maintenance: Change your habit of daily self-start, otherwise this part of the bike-scooty will get damaged!

Some people love their cars and some love their bikes and scooters so much that they take care of their vehicles more than themselves. Nothing will happen by taking care and loving them, sir, if you want your bike and scooter to always be in good condition and run without any problem, then you will have to improve some of your bad habits.

It is because of your bad habits that your bike and scooter start breaking down and then you have to spend money on repairing it. Most people make some mistakes due to which the most important part of the bike and scooter, the 'kick', starts breaking down.

When we asked Anil Kumar, owner of Shabbir Automobiles located in Madhu Vihar (Delhi) which bad habit needs to be changed? He said that the habit of taking selfie every day can spoil the kick you get from your bike or scooter.

How will the loss occur?

Anil Kumar said that everyone likes the self-start feature but if you keep doing the self start daily then the kick will start jamming and due to this bad habit of yours, one day the kick will get damaged.

This will not happen in a day, but if you do only self start every day for 4 to 5 months, then the kick will get jammed and then on the day when the self start does not work, just think what will you do?

How much will the repair cost?

It can cost you anywhere from Rs 150 to Rs 250 to get a jammed kick repaired. Note that the cost of repairing a jammed kick depends on the mechanic and how much he charges you to fix the kick.

Way to save money

If you want the kick not to jam, then make it a habit to start your scooter or bike with a kick at least once every day. If you do this, you will see that you will not have the problem of the kick jamming. Make it a habit that whenever you start your bike or scooter every morning, start your vehicle with a kick for the first time.
