how to buy a Bajaj Chetak / how to check Chetakscooter condition properly / Chetak buying tips --------------------------------------------------------- Buying a second-hand bike is a good deal when you are saving a significant amount of money. Take your time to decide which bike you want as options available would always exist. Test ride it, use all its gears, hear all the sounds. And check all the papers. Once everything is in the green, race ahead and enjoy the pleasures of riding a bike. Inspecting the bike Always arrive on time for inspecting the bike. It's important to carry out all the visual inspection during the day as natural light helps in checking all aspects of the bike minutely. It's always a good idea to take someone along who has experience of riding a bike. A second opinion - one that may be more practcal than yours - counts. Research the bike specific flaws Always look for specific bike-related information on the web to understand what people who already own it have to say about it. Brakes Check for smooth operation, age of break pad and ensure that there is no pulsing. Oil Leakag Look for oil spillage around the engine. If a bike has been washed recently, the portion with oil spillage will shine more than the rest of the area. Also ask for the service detail of the bike. Corrosion/Rust Look for rust in bike frames. Surface rust is not a cause of concern but deep rust with crumbling iron flake are signs that the bike may not have been maintained properly. Clutch Check the lever effort and when it's released. It should be effortless. Chains Check the condition of chain and sprocket. The sprocket should not show visible signs of damage or wear. Rotate the rear wheel and hear the sound of the chain - it should be uniform. Tyres Tyres should have good tread all the way across the surface with no signs of uneven wear or damage. Electricals and Battery Check all lights and switches to make sure they work. Chassis The whole chassis should be thoroughly inspected for visible deep scratch marks. Check for fresh paint as it is a sign the bike has met with an accident. Fuel Tank Open the fuel tank and check for rust or corrosion. Needless to say, don't use lighter or match box to get a better view! Suspension Look for oil leaks around the suspension. Also look for scratches/bends/twists in the leg. Wheels Check the wheels for cracks. If the wheel is spoke based, it should be thoroughly examined for rust corrosion and cracks. Exhaust pipe Look for an oil leak in the exhaust pipe. Oil in the exhaust means bad rings or valve guide seals. Additional accessories Quiz the owner about the nonstandard accessories in the motorcycle and the status of the warranty. Paperwork check: RC (Registration Certificate) book: The engine and chassis numbers printed in the RC book should match the engine and chassis numbers embossed on the engine and chassis. Insurance certificate PUC (Pollution Under Control) Certificate NOC (No Objection Certificate): An NOC is necessary from the RTO where the vehicle is registered, especially if the registration of a vehicle is going to be transferred from one RTO to another. Owner's manual / Service book: This is not mandatory. However, an owner's manual/service book would ensure that proper maintenance has been carried out periodically. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 🔰 Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_r_trone_?r... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #HowtoBuyaSecondhandChetakMalayalam #HowtoCheckSecondhadvehicles #BajajChetakInspection #ChetakScooterbuyingtips #howtobuya2strokebike #BajajChetak
