The following information provided below is
to help you get started with your new bike. It is not a training manual
and does not guarantee any bike malfunctions. Make sure you keep up with
normal maintenance for your pit bike just like you would a Honda, Yamaha
or any other brand. As always, Orion Pit Bike Sales provides free
technical support to all of our customers. Please call us if you have any
questions.
Below are a few tips to get you started.
1. When you first get your Dirt Bike make
sure you go over every bolt on the bike to make sure that it is tight. We
also recommend that you use locktite on all of the bolts. Make sure you
check your bolts again after each of your first 3 rides minimum.
2. Make sure you change your oil, before
starting your bike. We also recommend proper break in of the motor on your
pit bike. You can see our break in section under the
“Garage Area” on our website for more detail.
3. When you first get your pit bike out of
the crate it is important that you tighten the spokes. You will also need
to re-check the spokes after every 2-3 rides. To tighten the spokes, from
the valve stem, tighten every third spoke, with just a few turns each
until you work your way all the way around the wheel. Repeat this process
until all the spokes are completely tight.
4. After your initial ride your chain is
going to stretch. It is important to keep your chain tightened to the
appropriate tension to avoid chain malfunction while riding. You will also
want to check your chain every time before you go ride.
5. Your rear shock is adjustable by
tightening and loosening your rear spring. You can do this by turning the
two large main nuts on the top of the shock spring. There is also a set
screw you can loosen to turn these two nuts.
6. Only fill your gas tank with premium gas
(91+ octane)!!! All our pit bikes require premium, unleaded gas. DO NOT
use MIXED GAS!! We do not recommend using high octane, 100 +, race gas.
