Maintenance and upkeep of motorcycle tires
After having a qualified tire, you can let your good horse race at full speed. Perhaps many motorcycle enthusiasts only focus on the maintenance of the engine and appearance, while neglecting the maintenance of the tires, which shortens the service life of the tires and increases their consumption on them. Therefore, mastering some maintenance and upkeep tips can not only save costs, but also reduce many troubles caused by tire problems when driving.
Someone has calculated that the consumption and maintenance frequency of tires during the same period are related to an individual's driving skills, and the difference in consumption and maintenance costs can reach 10% to 30%. The maintenance and upkeep of tires can be discussed from two aspects: road surface factors and human factors. However, the determining factors are still subjective factors. Road surface factors are sometimes unavoidable, such as passing through ice and gravel, construction sites, and garbage roads, which can cause punctures and punctures to the tires. In the face of this situation, we can only be as careful or take detours as possible. The following mainly discusses human factors.
Some young people like to perform some driving skills, such as turning around in place, driving with one wheel, emergency braking, drifting and turning, and lifting one wheel of a tricycle while driving. I only realized when I changed the tire that the cost was quite substantial! The above practices are very harmful to the tires, not only accelerating tire wear, but also being detrimental to the engine. They should be avoided as much as possible. Drivers should develop good driving habits, which can not only save tires but also extend the service life of the engine. For example, starting and braking should be smooth; Be diligent in shifting gears when going uphill to avoid starting midway; Don't be too aggressive when crossing bumpy roads; Do not lend your car to someone who lacks driving skills to drive; When parking, it is important to develop the habit of supporting the frame, so that the vehicle can completely reduce its load during rest. These are all effective methods for tire maintenance.
The last point is often overlooked by motorcycle enthusiasts. The phenomenon of "tire eating" refers to the varying degree of wear on the left and right sides of the tire. Common reasons include: different scales on the chain wheel adjusters on the left and right sides, and front and rear wheels not being aligned
A line, front and rear axle not parallel, etc. If a motorcycle enthusiast discovers that their car has
If the phenomenon of tire eating occurs, the cause should be identified as soon as possible, carefully adjusted, and ultimately solved thoroughly, because tire eating is a fatal injury to motorcycle tires and has a faster wear rate than other methods. In addition, the maintenance work of tires is to add appropriate air pressure to the tires. If conditions permit, the tire should be inflated strictly according to the air pressure marked on the tire, because the amount of air pressure directly affects the service life and performance of the tire. If a decrease in air pressure is found, the cause of the leak should be identified. Is it a leaking nozzle or a slow exhalation? If the air nozzle leaks, it is necessary to check if the valve core is leaking or if there are other reasons. Slow inflation can be achieved by injecting a small amount of talcum powder (about 30g) into the tire, which can solve the problem of slow inflation.
