Summer is coming! How do high temperature weather give motorcycles a "heat"?

Check brake system

The high temperature easily causes the brake fluid to evaporate to form a gas resistance. The brake friction plate is also easy to ablate, resulting in brake failure. The brake system should be checked and adjusted in time, the brake fluid should be added or replaced, the air resistance in the pipeline should be eliminated, and the brake should be guaranteed. Reliable performance.

Check tire pressure

Tire pressure is a noteworthy summer ride. Proper tire air pressure gives the motorcycle maximum traction, stability, driving comfort and long life. Insufficient tire pressure not only increases driving resistance, increases engine load and fuel consumption, but also causes the tire to fall off the rim; excessive tire pressure can reduce the stability of the motorcycle. Therefore, before starting, you should carefully check the tire pressure of the motorcycle.

Change the oil in time

In summer, the ambient temperature is high, the viscosity of the oil is reduced, and the oil is correspondingly thinned. The oil that uses the required viscosity will deteriorate the lubrication condition of the friction surfaces of the engine and aggravate the wear of the machine. In addition, the service life of the oil at high temperatures will also be shortened. Therefore, when entering the summer maintenance, it is best to change the oil in time.

Clean the filter to adjust the gas

Appropriately increase the number of cleaning of the air filter to reduce the air intake resistance; clean the carburetor in time to reduce the oil level of the float chamber; properly adjust the gas distribution screw to reduce the oil supply and ensure the correct air-fuel ratio. Through the above measures, reduce fuel consumption and prevent the engine from overheating.

Avoid overload and long driving

Overweight and excessive load will cause the engine to be overloaded, and it will always be in a bad working condition with large throttle and low speed. This will reduce the normal cooling effect, make the engine overheat, deteriorate the lubrication conditions, and increase the wear, which will lead to a gradual decline in engine performance, which will eventually shorten the service life of the motorcycle.

On the way to long distances, you should park and rest properly to cool the engine! Don't think that pouring cold water into the engine will speed up the cooling. This may cause a burst! Daily maintenance Pay attention to keep the engine clean and ensure good heat dissipation.
