Dirt bikes require a significant amount of time to keep maintenance at a high standard. Each time you head to the track or come home from a weekend of riding your bike is either prepared for riding or washed/fixed for riding.
Dirt bike axle bolts are an extremely important piece of the puzzle, holding the entire wheel onto either the swingarm or the fork legs. Axle bolts should be very firm when tampered with and checked regularly in between riding, as this part not being fitted correctly can cause significant damage to the machine or worse, the rider. Having the rear axle bolt tight ensures your chain adjuster bolts are secured and failsafe, as well as ensuring your disc remains aligned with either caliper and sprocket with the chain stays correct. Keeping the rear wheel mounted firmly to the dirt bike is extremely important for keeping the wheel axle, washers and spacers in perfect sync.
