Especially if you use it cornering, it will be more pronounced and make the motor unstable," said Irvan.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> According to Irvan, many bikers are still wrong in detecting the damage to the front wheel bearing and the problem with the komstir.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> "If the driver has problems, generally when turning the steering wheel or handlebars, it becomes heavy or even too light, accompanied by a clicking sound in the steering wheel area.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> Meanwhile, if the front wheel bearing has problems, the tires or rims seem to run left and right when used," he added when met at Ahass TDM Honda Sisomulyo.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> Irvan also added, to check the condition of the bearings or bearings on the front rim of the motorcycle is actually quite easy.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> "When the motorbike is parked, use the center standard or paddock. Then focus on the front wheels," said Irvan.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> "Then shake the front rim with both hands, if when shaken it turns out that there is a looseness on the rim axle (oblak) it can be ascertained that the front wheel bearing or blade needs to be replaced," he explained again.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Finally, Irvan revealed that the wheel bearing damage was caused by several things.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> "Usually because they often carry heavy loads, break through damaged roads or they can often break through floods that almost drown the wheels," he said.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> Therefore, driving behavior plays an important role in maintaining the durability of the bearings on the motorcycle wheels.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> Remember, when the wheel bearing has a problem, it should be replaced immediately because it can make the motor unstable and dangerous at high speeds.</span></p><p><br/></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> The price of wheel bearings is also relatively cheap, only around IDR 20-30 thousand depending on the type of motor.</span></p><p><br/></p>
