During the winter, due to the weather conditions, it is important to know the environment in which we move, in order to ride safely and with caution. Motorcycles are a great choice for traveling around the city. They are highly demanded vehicles due to their design and use characteristics, high revolutions and temperatures, among others.
For this reason, the technical team at Petronas Lubricants Argentina provides you with the keys to follow to drive your motorcycle safely and comfortably all year round, and especially during this time of year.
Slow down
It is important to know that on rainy days the grip of the tires on the road decreases. They wear down and the water drainage channel is reduced. In these circumstances, aquaplaning can occur at lower speeds than usual. This phenomenon occurs when a vehicle crosses a surface covered in water on the road at a certain speed, causing the driver to lose traction and control of the vehicle. The best way to prevent this situation is to slow down.
Lubricate the drive chain
First, the drive chain must be lubricated frequently, first removing any water and particles it may have, since this also protects the pinion and crown.
With the aim of protecting the engine in all types of driving circumstances, PETRONAS Lubricants International developed PETRONAS Sprinta which, thanks to its ULTRAFLEX™ technology, allows the motorcycle to respond dynamically at all times. Its special lubrication formula has been developed to offer performance, protection and care, today and always. With PETRONAS Sprinta you will help reduce clutch slippage, improving its performance and allowing for exceptional driving.
