Upgrade and Repair Your Bike ASAP
After you make it through the opening of the game you’ll gain access to your trusty bike, and boy are you gonna be spending a lot of time on it. The motorcycle is your main method of travel through the world of Days Gone, and really your only reliable way of getting around, until you unlock fast travel points.
The problem is that your bike isn’t all that sturdy at the start of the game, so you’ll want to immediately focus on upgrading it. To do this you’ll simply need to head to the Mechanic at camps to buy upgrades, but you’ll need Trust and Credits in order to do so. We’ll get to that soon, but you should always be focusing on getting a few bike upgrades first.
This will let you increase the speed and handling, up your bike’s durability, reduce the rate it uses gas, and more. In addition to all that, however, you’ll want to make sure you’re keeping an eye on the durability of your bike at all times.
Simply riding around will reduce durability, but taking a hit on your bike will severely lower it, and if durability reaches zero then you’re a sitting duck. In order to repair the bike, you need scrap, a resource found in all number of places like in car hoods, junkyard, etc. Once you have scrap just run up to the side of your bike and hold circle to repair it.
