How to Prepare Your Bike After Summer Riding?

After a full season of summer adventures, your BMW deserves professional attention. The combined stress of high heat and extended mileage takes a toll on fluids, tires, and key components.

Our certified technicians will carefully inspect your motorcycle, address any post-summer wear, and ensure it’s optimally prepared—whether you’re extending the riding season or preparing for a perfect, worry-free winter storage.

What Seasonal Maintenance Does My Motorcycle Need in the Fall?

As fall sets in, proactively prepare your BMW motorcycle to handle colder conditions and the approach of winter. Start by refreshing the system by replacing or topping off the engine oil, coolant, and brake fluid. Address summer debris in the air filter, and add fuel stabilizer for any planned storage. Maintain power with a test, charge, and terminal cleaning. Protect your battery over the long term using a BMW-recommended tender. For increased safety on wet roads, check tire pressure and tread, replacing worn tires with BMW-approved cold-weather options. Examine suspension seals for damage. Inspect all brake components (pads, rotors, lines) and service the final drive (lubricate chain or check shaft drive). A final check confirms all essential bolts and fasteners are secured.
