Oil strainers are important components in a motorbike's lubrication system that serve to filter out impurities and particles from the engine oil. They are usually placed in the engine's oil system, either at the oil filler neck or in the oil sump.
The main function of the oil strainer is to retain dirt, metal chips, debris and other contaminants and prevent them from entering the engine. This ensures effective lubrication and reliable engine protection.
It is important to check the oil strainer regularly and clean or replace it when necessary. A clogged or damaged oil strainer can impede oil flow and result in inadequate engine protection. Maintenance of the oil strainer can extend the life of the engine and improve the overall performance of the motorbike.
