Throughout the life of a motorcycle, various types of breakdowns can appear, some cheaper and others much more expensive. Sometimes the cause is a component that can be worth the same as a book, between 10 and 30 euros, but if the corresponding revision is not made, it can cause a breakdown of great economic disbursementaccording to Euromaster.

The first example is found in air and oil filters, whose cost can range between 5 and 15 euros. If they are not changed when indicated in the manufacturer’s official maintenance book, internal problems may appear in the engine, to the point that it can reduce its useful life by up to 30%, in addition to an increase in the consumption of both fuel and oil. In certain cases, the poor condition of both filters can cause a very serious breakdown of up to 6,000 euros.

Another part to watch out for on a motorcycle are the lights and the cost of their replacement can reach 30 euros each. In this case, its maintenance does not cause a serious breakdown, but it is a key component in the safety of motorcyclists, since it allows them to see and be seen by other vehicles. In this sense, it must be remembered that motorcycles must have their lights on 24 hours a day, so the chances of one of the bulbs burning out are greater since it is in operation at all times.

Another component with a very low cost price – between 30 and 40 euros per axle – are the brake pads. Its poor condition can damage the disc itself, so the breakdown would also be more serious and expensive (between 300 and 350 euros on the workshop bill). As it is one of the fundamental parts of the braking system, it must always be checked, since the motorist’s safety is at stake.

Finally, another piece with a ridiculous cost of about 30 euros is the front suspension seal, an element that, if it is in poor condition, can cause oil leaks that end up on the brake pads and disc, damaging both. components and, what is more important, that the bike brakes badly. And there is nothing more expensive than having an accident.
