1. Establish the inspection reference
Inspectors need the approved sample record, final specification, agreed component list, color and logo files, packaging artwork and quantity breakdown. If a requirement is not written into the reference pack, it is difficult to judge consistently.
2. Functional and assembly checks
- Power-on, display, throttle or assist controls and switches
- Motor operation, abnormal noise and basic riding function
- Front and rear braking, lever feel and brake-light response
- Headlight, indicators, horn and other specified electrical items
- Charger connection, battery locking and key functions
- Fastener condition, cable routing and visible interference
3. Appearance and configuration
Compare paint, decals, badges, seat, tires, brakes, rack, mirrors and included accessories with the approved record. Define acceptable cosmetic limits before production where possible.
4. Packaging and shipment readiness
Confirm carton marks, model labels, protective materials, accessory packs, charger type, manuals and packing quantities. Random cartons should be opened rather than reviewing only prepared display units.
5. Make the report actionable
A good report identifies the sample size, checked items, photographs, defect classification, quantities affected and required corrective action. Reinspection conditions should be agreed when major issues are found.
