Course description:

This 3-hour course is a hands-on lesson in how to keep your bike running optimally. Bring your bike and we’ll show you how to work on it.  The instructor will guide you through the necessary upkeep that all motorcyclists should know. 

You will learn how to: 

• change your oil and filter
• remove and read your spark plugs
• access and clean or replace your air filter
• change brake pads
• bleed brakes
• make any adjustments needed for a better fit and ride. 

All of the maintenance is geared toward what the student wants to accomplish on his or her bike. There is an overview of how the engine works and the importance of regular service to your machine.  

All of these tasks are done in the garage at Motorcycle Riding’s Cool (1400 N. Halsted). The garage has all the tools you need to do the work but you should bring replacement fluids and parts for the tasks you want to learn.

Call us if you are not sure what or how much you need for your bike. If you opt not to bring your bike, you can work on a bike from the school’s fleet. You’ll leave feeling more confident about how to take care of your bike for the long haul.
