To properly break in the engine, avoid rapid acceleration and maintain moderate speeds for the first 500-1000 kilometers. Gradually increase speed and load as you reach the end of the break-in period. This helps in ensuring optimal performance and longevity of the engine.
The recommended tire pressure for the Hero Glamour 2021 is 25 psi for the front tire and 29 psi for the rear tire when riding solo. For pillion riding, increase the rear tire pressure to 32 psi.
It is recommended to change the engine oil every 3000 kilometers or every 6 months, whichever comes first. Regular oil changes help in maintaining engine health and performance.
First, check the fuel level and ensure the fuel valve is open. Next, inspect the battery connections for any loose or corroded terminals. If the issue persists, check the spark plug and replace it if necessary. If none of these steps work, consult a professional mechanic.
To adjust the chain tension, place the motorcycle on the center stand and locate the chain adjusters at the rear axle. Loosen the axle nut and turn the adjusters evenly on both sides until the chain has about 20-30 mm of slack. Tighten the axle nut securely after adjustment.
Start by rinsing the motorcycle with water to remove loose dirt. Use a mild detergent and a soft sponge to clean the bodywork. Avoid using high-pressure water on electrical components. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean cloth. Lubricate the chain after washing.
To improve fuel efficiency, maintain a steady speed and avoid rapid acceleration. Ensure regular maintenance, including air filter cleaning and spark plug inspection. Correct tire pressure and chain tension also contribute to better fuel economy.
During regular maintenance, check the engine oil level, tire pressure, brake fluid level, and chain tension. Inspect the air filter and spark plug, and ensure all lights and electrical components are working properly.
If you notice reduced braking performance, squeaking noises, or if the brake lever feels spongy, it's time to service the brakes. Regular inspection of brake pads and fluid levels is essential to ensure safety.
While it's possible to install a different battery, ensure that it matches the specifications of the original battery in terms of voltage and capacity. It's recommended to use genuine parts or consult with a professional mechanic before making such changes.
