Inspect front forks and rear shock absorbers for leaks, wear, or reduced damping so your ride stays comfortable and controlled.
Suspension is easy to take for granted until it starts failing — and on Pune's mix of smooth stretches and pothole-heavy roads, worn suspension shows up as a harsher, less controlled ride well before it becomes a visible problem. A suspension check inspects the front forks for oil leaks and smooth travel, and the rear shock absorber(s) for damping performance and any sagging. Catching wear early keeps the bike planted and comfortable, and avoids the higher cost of a full suspension overhaul later.
30–40 minutes
Every 6 months, or sooner if ride comfort noticeably changes
Riders noticing a harsher or less controlled ride, or anyone who regularly rides on Pune's rougher road stretches.
Front forks and rear shock(s) are checked for visible oil leaks or damage.
The mechanic compresses and releases the suspension to assess damping and smoothness of travel.
Suspension mounting bolts and linkages are checked for tightness and wear.
Findings are shared, including whether any parts need attention or replacement.
A noticeably harsher ride, visible oil leaking from the front forks, or the bike bottoming out more than usual over bumps are all signs worth getting checked.
Worn fork seals are the most common cause, often from age, dust contamination, or general wear over high mileage. A suspension check identifies this early.
Yes — worn suspension can affect how well your tyres stay in contact with the road, which indirectly affects braking grip and cornering stability.
This is an inspection service. If it identifies an issue like a fork oil leak or worn shock, the mechanic will explain the repair options and cost separately.
Roughly every 6 months is a reasonable baseline, though it's worth checking sooner if you notice a change in ride comfort or control.
About 30 to 40 minutes.
A bumpier-than-usual ride, a dipping feeling over bumps, or visible oil leakage around the fork are the most common signs — a suspension check confirms exactly what (if anything) needs adjustment or replacement.
Correct front and rear wheel alignment so your bike tracks straight, without pulling to one side or wearing tyres unevenly.
