Checklist before filming

Before each ride check:

  1. Battery: Check that you have locked your battery and that it is no longer connected to the charger. If you are going on a long trip, make sure you have enough charge.
  2. Brakes: Gently press both brakes to ensure they work properly. Inspect the brake pads for wear.
  3. Accelerator: With Pulse off, gently press the accelerator to ensure nothing is blocking it.
  4. Wheels: Lift your Pulse and check how your wheels turn. Make sure they roll straight and the discs do not rub against the brake pads.
  5. Tires: Make sure tires are inflated to the recommended pressure (30 psi) and inspect for any damage.
  6. Handlebars: Adjust the handlebars so that they are the proper height and are secure under the insertion line. Also, make sure they are tightened tightly enough.
  7. Chain: Make sure your chain is free of dust and rust. If it rattles when using it, lubricate it.
  8. Nuts: Check the “Quick Release” mechanisms and any other levers or nuts are tight and in no danger of coming loose. Also includes the rear axle of the engine, verify that all nuts, washers and lock washers are in their correct position.
  9. Lights: Make sure the lights work.
  10. Check that the footrest is not still active when you move forward on the bike to avoid damaging it.
