Whether you've got a new bike, an old bike, a BMX bike, a unicycle, no matter what, you're gonna have to maintain it.

無論你的是新車、舊車、BMX bike、獨輪車，不管是什麼，你都得好好保養它。

But some motorcycles are gonna require a bit more intensive care than others, depending on how hard or frequently you ride and the age and complexity of your machine.

不過有些機車需要的照顧會比其他車多一點，這取決於你騎車的強度或頻率，還有車子的年齡和複雜度。

情態副詞

But luckily, most basic motorcycle maintenance can be done yourself, at home with just a few simple tools.

但幸運的是，大部分基本的機車保養，你都可以在家自己動手，只需要一些簡單的工具。

Maintaining your own motorcycle will save you lots of cash, provide you with a more intimate knowledge of the inner workings of your bike, and

自己保養機車可以省下不少錢，讓你更瞭解你愛車的內部構造，

give you a sense of confidence and accomplishment from doing the job yourself and knowing it was done right.

還能讓你因為自己動手完成工作並確保做得對而感到自信和成就感。

So without further ado, let's explain some basic motorcycle maintenance to help get you well on your way to working on your own bikes.

那麼，我們就來介紹一些基本的機車保養，幫助你開始自己動手整理愛車。

Let's get into it the first and most paramount piece of motorcycle maintenance that's the easiest is changing your oil and filter.

我們就開始吧，最重要也最簡單的機車保養項目就是換機油和濾芯。

This is considerably the most crucial maintenance item, while also being the simplest.

這可以說是其中最重要的保養項目，同時也是最簡單的。

It's also the most universal job for motorcyclists because regardless of if you have a brand new motorcycle, a used motorcycle or even an air cooled motorcycle, they all use oil and it needs to be changed.

對於騎士來說，這也是最普遍的工作，因為不管你是新車、二手車，甚至是氣冷車，它們都會用到機油，而且需要定期更換。

Luckily, with advancements in motorcycle engine and manufacturing and synthetic oils oil change interfaces intervals are as long as they've ever been.

幸運的是，隨著機車引擎和製造技術的進步，以及合成機油的發展，換機油的間隔時間也比以往更長了。

New motorcycles can have service intervals to go as long as 10,000 miles, but

新的機車保養間隔可以長達一萬英里，但

of course check your service manual or do a quick Google search to find out the specific interval recommended for your motorcycle.

當然，請檢查你的保養手冊或快速搜尋一下，找出你的機車建議的特定保養間隔。

Regardless of how long your service intervals are, they always recommend to change at least once a year at the minimum.

無論你的保養間隔有多長，他們總是建議至少一年更換一次。

Erring on the side of caution never hurts, and

for most riders who typically ride about 5,000 miles a year or less.

對於大多數一年騎乘約五千英里或更少的騎士來說，

Changing your oil and filter once a season is pretty standard, and

每季換一次機油和濾芯是很常見的，而且

Make sure you buy the correct viscosity and volume of oil again based on your service manual or the trusty Internet, because I'm sure all the forum dads would love to give you all the microscopic details required to change the oil for your given model.

再次確認你購買的機油黏度和容量是正確的，這一樣可以參考你的保養手冊或萬能的網路，因為我確定論壇上的爸爸們一定很樂意提供你關於你特定車款換機油所需的各種細節。

You guys ever notice that how old guys on Internet forums write hundreds of words debating the minutiae of engine oil on an online forum?

你們有沒有注意到，網路上論壇上的老一輩們會寫幾百字來爭論機油的細節？

But then we'll just respond to every text message with a single letter K as well as a new oil filter and a replacement cush washer for the oil drain plug Never hurts either.

但我們卻只會用一個字母 K 回覆每一則簡訊，還有新的機油濾芯和機油洩油螺絲的墊片更換，這些也永遠不會有壞處。

Take it out for a quick rip around the blot just to get the oil warm and eager to drain out.

騎出去繞一圈，讓機油變熱，方便排出。

Let the bike rest for five or ten minutes while you gather your supplies.

讓機車休息個五到十分鐘，這時候你就可以準備需要的工具了。

This will ensure all the oil drips down to the bottom of the engine.

這樣可以確保所有的機油都流到底部。

Again, take the cap off the oil fill to allow the air to flow through.

再次確認，把機油蓋打開，讓空氣可以流通。

To prevent a vacuum, loosen the drain bolts at the bottom of the engine.

為了避免產生真空，鬆開引擎底部的洩油螺絲。

If your motorcycle was recently serviced at the dealer, that bolt is probably torqued on at 1,000 foot pounds, so brace yourself for that.

如果你的機車最近才在經銷商那裡保養過，那個螺絲可能鎖得很緊，大概有 1000 磅的力道，所以要有心理準備。

Then unthread it the rest of the way with your hand, making sure to not drop it in the drain pan and scald your hand with hot oil.

然後用手把它轉下來，小心別讓它掉進油盆裡，以免被熱油燙到手。

And if you're feeling overly cautious, you can set a block of wood beneath your side stand to keep the bike level to try to extract any remaining oil.

如果你比較謹慎，可以在側柱下面墊一塊木頭，讓機車保持水準，試著把殘餘的機油都排出來。

Doing all this with a rear paddock stand works too and gives you a little bit of extra room to work under the bike.

用後輪架來做這些事也可以，而且能讓你操作機車下方時有更多空間。

Don't get too in your head or you'll end up like the oil dads in the forums.

別想太多，不然你會變成論壇上的那些「機油爸爸」。

Remove the oil filter and let the oil drip all over your exhaust and make a huge mess.

拆下機油濾芯，讓機油滴得到處都是，弄得排氣管一團亂。

Then take a clean shop towel and wipe the inside of the oil filter housing for good measure.

然後拿一條乾淨的抹布，順便擦拭一下機油濾芯座的內部。

Then just do it all in reverse order pre fill the new filter halfway through.

接著就反向操作，先把新的濾芯加一半的機油。

Put a touch of fresh oil around the entire circumference of the filter gasket.

在新濾芯墊圈的整個圓週上抹一點新鮮的機油。

Screw it on by hand, screw it on until the gasket meets the mating surface, then give it about another half turn or so.

用手把它鎖上，鎖到墊圈碰到密合面，然後再轉大約半圈左右。

It doesn't need to be crazy tight or torqued on with a wrench.

不需要鎖得非常緊，也不需要用扳手去鎖死。

Reinstall the oil drain plug with the fresh kush washer.

重新裝上機油洩油螺絲，換上新的墊片。

This can be torqued to spec based on your service manual, but

這部分可以依照你的保養手冊鎖到指定扭力，但是

usually around 20 foot pounds or so is good.

It's a giant pain in the butt to remove that if you strip that bolt.

要是把那個螺絲鎖滑牙，拆下來會非常非常麻煩。

Once your new filter and drain plug are reinstalled, refill the oil based on the recommended volume, which is usually a tad less than the maximum capacity.

裝好新的濾芯和洩油螺絲後，依照建議的油量重新加機油，通常會比最大容量少一點點。

Since some of the oil will always stay within the engine.

因為有些機油會留在引擎裡面。

This amount should be easily found in your manual or online.

這個量應該可以在你的保養手冊或網路上輕鬆找到。

Once you got your fresh oil in, start her up.

Make sure the oil pressure light goes off quickly.

Let it run for a bit, make sure you don't see any leaks, then shut it off.

讓它運轉一下，確認沒有看到任何洩漏，然後關掉引擎。

Check your oil levels in the sight glass or dipstick depending on what kind of bike you have, and

檢查你的油位，看是油視窗還是機油尺，取決於你的車是什麼款式的，

Your oil is changed and your dealership's gonna charge you like $200 or more to do this.

你的機油換好了，而你的經銷商收你兩百塊美金或更多來做這件事。

Do you want to debate the specifics of engine oil with others online?

你想在網路上跟別人爭論機油的細節嗎？

How about nerd out about another motorcycle topic?

不如來聊聊其他機車的冷知識吧？

Maybe ask the advice of elder squids who have yeeted thousands of nooners over the years.

或許可以問問那些多年來已經「飛」過上千次「午餐」的資深「魷魚」。

The next most important piece of maintenance is cleaning and adjusting your chain.

下一個最重要的保養項目是清潔和調整你的鏈條。

This actually is required to be done more frequently than an oil change, but

這其實比換機油需要更頻繁地進行，但是

delaying it or avoiding it would not be as catastrophic as neglecting to change your oil.

延遲或逃避它不像忽略換機油那樣災難性。

But that's not to say it should be neglected, because having a chain break while you're riding can be bad news.

但這不代表可以忽略它，因為騎車時鏈條斷裂可能會帶來麻煩。

Cleaning a chain is really quite straightforward as well.

You'll find all sorts of contradicting information about how a chain needs to be cleaned.

你會發現關於鏈條該如何清潔的資訊五花八門，互相矛盾。

Some nerds will brag about how they clean their chain after everything single ride, which is very excessive.

有些怪咖會吹噓他們每次騎車後都會清潔鏈條，這太誇張了。

The more accepted consensus is as long as you're not riding through torrential rain or mucking it up on some serious off road conditions, cleaning your chain once every 500 miles or so is just fine.

更被普遍接受的說法是，只要你不是在傾盆大雨中騎車，或是在嚴苛的越野條件下弄髒它，大約每騎 500 英里清潔一次鏈條就足夠了。

Cleaning your chain is easiest when using a rear stand to jack up your rear wheel off the ground and allow you to spin the rear wheel freely.

使用後輪架將後輪抬離地面，讓後輪可以自由轉動，清潔鏈條會最容易。

With the bike in neutral, you'll just spray down your chain with the chain cleaner, making sure every part is covered.

把腳踏車打到空檔，然後噴上鏈條清潔劑，確保鏈條的每個部分都有噴到。

Scrub it all with a chain brush, ensuring you get all the nooks and crannies in the entire length of the chain.

用鏈條刷把它刷乾淨，確保鏈條的每個角落和縫隙都刷到。

Some people rinse the chain off with water after others just wipe it with a shop towel to get all the grime off.

有些人會用水沖鏈條，有些人則是用抹布擦乾淨，把髒汙都擦掉。

If you rinse your chain, let it dry before re lubing, then spray on the lube getting the entire length of the chain.

如果你用水沖鏈條，記得在重新上油前讓它乾，然後噴上鏈條油，確保鏈條的每個部分都有噴到。

Wipe up any excess and you're good to go.

把多餘的油擦掉，這樣就大功告成囉。

While you're down on the ground, you can inspect the slack in your chain compared to the specs on your swing arm or your manual.

在你彎腰的時候，可以檢查一下鏈條的鬆緊度，跟你的後搖臂或手冊上的規格比較一下。

If your chain needs to be tightened, loosen the axle nut and adjust the sliders to bring it into spec, lining up with the notches on the swing arm.

如果你的鏈條需要調整鬆緊，就鬆開後輪軸螺母，然後調整滑塊讓它回到規格值，對齊後搖臂上的刻度。

Lock the adjusters and re torque your axle nut to specific super simple maintenance, but it's very important.

鎖緊調整器，然後把後輪軸螺母鎖回指定扭力，這是非常簡單但很重要的保養。

Keeping your chain clean not just ensures the health of your chain, but your sprockets as well.

保持鏈條乾淨，不僅能確保鏈條的壽命，也能保護你的齒盤。

And everybody loves a good clean looking chain.

而且大家都會喜歡一條乾淨又好看的鏈條。

While tires don't need to be maintained per se, outside of ensuring proper inflation, which I highly recommend, check your PSI often and regularly.

雖然輪胎本身不太需要特別保養，除了確保胎壓正常（我強烈建議你這麼做），要常常定期檢查你的PSI。

Oh my God, they do need to be inspected and replaced as consumable wear items the lifespan of motorcycle tires is much shorter than you might think if you're coming from commuter cars where you can get 50,000 miles out of a set, especially if you live in the south and you can keep your tires for 100,000 miles since you never have to drive in the snow.

天啊，它們確實需要檢查和更換，因為輪胎是消耗品，機車輪胎的壽命比你想像的要短得多，如果你是從通勤車來的，通勤車一套可以開五萬英里，尤其如果你住南部，輪胎可以用十萬英里，因為你不用在雪地開車。

Yes, I'm talking to you with the 2014 Nissan Altima that looks like it's running racing slicks and you've been on the same set of rubber since it rolled off the lot 10 years ago.

沒錯，我說的就是你，那臺2014年的Nissan Altima，看起來像在跑光頭胎，而且自從十年前落地以來，你就一直用同一套輪胎。

Motorcycle tires, on the other hand, typically have a lifespan from anywhere from as low as 3 to 10,000 miles, depending on the type of tire and how you ride.

相對來說，機車輪胎的壽命通常從低至3千到1萬英里不等，取決於輪胎類型和你的騎乘方式。

Sport touring tires are going to work a lot better and last great quite a bit longer than a super sport tire.

運動旅行胎會比超級運動胎更好用，而且壽命也長得多。

If you're doing long stretches on the highway, you'll notice the center of your tire will wear down more quickly.

如果你長時間在高速公路上騎乘，你會發現輪胎中央磨損得更快。

Different tires are made differently with different compounds for different styles of riding, and

不同的輪胎有不同的配方，適合不同的騎乘風格，而且

since there is no hard and fast rule to guarantee how long a tire will last, it is the responsibility of the rider to keep track of the wear to determine the time for replacement.

由於沒有硬性規定能保證輪胎能用多久，所以騎士有責任隨時注意磨損情況，以決定更換時機。

Many tires have wear indicators or you can measure the remaining tread depth.

很多輪胎都有磨損指示器，或者你可以測量剩餘的胎紋深度。

Most DOT regulations say 1.32of an inch is the minimum tread allowed for motorcycle tire.

大多數DOT規定，機車輪胎允許的最小胎紋深度是1.32英吋。
