Where is the motorcycle throttle?

Motorcycle throttles are generally installed at the rear of the engine, most of which are silver. The throttle valve regulates the amount of air that the car enters, and the air enters the cylinder almost through the throttle valve. The function of the throttle valve is to regulate the air entering and leaving the engine. Air enters the engine and mixes with gasoline to form a mixture, thus providing power. Throttle is a small part in the engine, but this small part plays a very important role.

When working, the throttle valve regulates the air intake of the engine like a valve body. When the engine is working, it will produce a part of exhaust gas. Part of the exhaust gas enters the throttle valve. Carbon will accumulate at the throttle position. Carbon deposition will affect the power of the engine, and the fuel consumption of the engine may also become worse. If these carbon deposits are not removed immediately, the position of the throttle will be blocked, and the resistance of the throttle switch will increase, resulting in engine jitter and vibration at idle speed.

Cleaning method of motorcycle throttle

It is necessary to remove the intake throat first to expose the throttle inside, then remove the battery cathode, turn off the ignition switch at the same time, and then straighten the throttle. When cleaning, spray a small amount of carburetor cleaner into the throttle. After spraying, you can scrub it repeatedly with a clean rag. If the throttle can't be reached, you can scrub it with a rag in a small clip.

After all the throttles are cleaned, they can be put back according to the disassembly steps just now. After it is put back, the throttle valve needs to be initialized. Mainly because the computer has a memory function to adjust the throttle opening. Before there was sludge blockage, in order to ensure air intake, the computer will adjust the throttle valve opening to allow the gas to enter normally.

However, there was no blockage after cleaning. If the throttle has been open before, the air intake will be too large. If the air intake is too large, the engine will shake when starting the car, and it will be unable to accelerate. Be sure to make initialization settings.

Motorcycle maintenance method

lubricate

Everything that can rotate on a motorcycle needs lubrication. If you don't ride for a long time, you need to complete this task, which can make the motorcycle use more smoothly and prevent rust. The throttle line and clutch line also need lubrication, otherwise it will feel stuck and badly worn after a long time.

cutting fluid

Water-cooled motorcycles need to be replaced with coolant. In fact, some people haven't changed the coolant since they bought a car. Coolant has the function of high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, which can effectively protect the engine from damage in cold winter. Many people add tap water directly to the water tank. In fact, this is wrong, which will reduce the heat dissipation efficiency of motorcycles and cause rust. After two years, the coolant will still be replaced.

brake shoe

Brake pads will wear. If the brake pad is less than 2mm, it should be replaced. Otherwise, the metal plate fixing the brake pad will directly contact the brake disc, and it will not play the role of braking. However, on the whole, its durability is very high. For your own safety, it is better to check it regularly, and it is not expensive to replace it.
