Suzuki dirt bike


Japanese motor vehicle manufacturers have been one of the most consistent when it comes to making reliable and affordable vehicles for a long time now. One of them is Suzuki which isn't as popular as the rest but their undervalued motorcycles are one of the most dependable.


They are made to last no matter the terrain they're made for and they last quite a long time with just regular service intervals. Suzuki makes some performance dirt bikes too and they are able to perform as well as their more expensive counterparts. Just don't expect fancy technologies in terms of handling and the gauge cluster.

Skid Plate

Not everything about dirt bikes has to do with performance since there are accessories that are all about safety. Take skid plates for example, they are a piece of metal that goes on the underside to help protect the engine from impacts. These are crucial Suzuki dirt bike accessories as without them you could end up with catastrophic damage to one of the most important components.


Hand Guards

Another type of Suzuki dirt bike parts that have to do with safety is hand guards. While you might think they are just for show but their design is much more than a cover to keep the wind off your hands. These aftermarket Suzuki dirt bike parts can actually keep them safe in an accident and when riding through areas with low-hanging branches.


Plugs

Staying on the handlebars, you can also get a pair of plugs that go on them. Handlebar plugs are made so that you can protect the inner side of the bars from getting filled with dirt and moisture. The latter can also cause them to corrode if left in there for long enough.


Radiator Guard

A different type of guard that is shaped to protect the radiator can be a great addition to your dirt bike as it can help keep the radiator safe from impacts. Similarly to a skid plate, a radiator guard is made of metal and also give it a unique look.


Pivot Lever

Going back to accidents, you are better off having pivot levers than not. That's because these aftermarket Suzuki dirt bike parts are able to protect even more exposed components from a fall such as the brake and clutch levers. This way if you were to fall with the levers going into the ground first they will move in the opposite direction as they pivot.


Throttle Tube

Many manufacturers today, including Suzuki, mould the grip to the throttle tube which means if you want to replace your grips you'll need a new throttle tube too. Having a spare pair of tubes can help save you time when it comes to ordering parts or in case you forget about the throttle tubes.


Air Filter

Aftermarket air filters may not have an OEM look to them but these Suzuki dirt bike accessories will improve your bike's performance quite a bit. That's because these aftermarket Suzuki dirt bike parts are typically bigger and can bring in much cooler air so that the fuel brunch more efficiently. You also get a better-protected air filter in case of an accident.


Wash Cover

You don't want water to enter where air does and this can happen when washing our dirt bike. With an air box wash cover, you can protect the inside of the air boot from water entering in it when pressure washing it. If you hose down your Suzuki dirt bike this might not be needed but it's better to have it on than not. 


Hour Metre

Maintenance is key to prolonging your bike's lifespan and with an hour metre, you can stay on top of regular maintenance intervals. That's because this type of accessory gives you an accurate representation of when you nee to change the oil and filter.


Added Fuel Tank

An extra fuel tan might add some weight to your dirt bike but it will also improve the number of kilometres you can spend riding it. This comes in the form of a smaller plastic tank attached either to the back of underside of your bike depending on the available space it has.


Hydration Pack

You also need fluids too and a hydration pack is able to provide a large body of water strapped on your back. You don't need to stop to have a sip of water either as you get a long tube that goes to your mouth so you can do so while riding.


Ear Plugs

Your ears will be thankful if you put plugs on alongside a helmet. These Suzuki dirt bike parts will keep the inner ear safe from the loud noises produced bu your dirt bike, especially when you need to rev it out for hours on end.


Grips

Sometimes gloves are not enough to provide a good enough grip on the handlebars. Aftermarket grips can help solve that as they go on the handlebars and can make even the sweatiest of hands have control over the gas and clutch.
