Some habits that housewives often fall into easily cause motorbikes to quickly degrade, reducing vehicle lifespan as well as reducing performance when used.
Do not turn off motorbike power locks
This is one of the habits that many people have that makes motorbikes prone to wear and reduces lifespan, especially for modern scooter lines. Due to the mechanism of temporarily turning off the engine when pushing the stand, many people often mistakenly think the car has been completely turned off and forget to turn the key knob to the "OFF" position.
This habit causes the system of lights and electronic circuits to still consume energy continuously. This is also the reason why batteries are deeply discharged, leading to battery bottles and easily damaged.
In addition, maintaining power flow when the engine is not working can cause heat and reduce the lifespan of the center console (ECU) as well as the electronic fuel injection system of the motorcycle.
Or "snatching" when riding a motorbike
Speeding up the car to accelerate quickly or braking suddenly is also one of the habits of many people when riding a motorbike. Suddenly accelerating and then braking suddenly will cause a lot of damage to the motorbike's condition.
Causing the engine to operate at high intensity for a continuous time prevents fuel from burning out, creating coal soot clinging to the combustion chamber. At the same time, it creates great pressure on the belt (for scooters) or chains (for manual transmission motorcycles), causing these parts to stretch, slide and wear down quickly.
Ignoring maintenance and periodic oil changes
Many people only bring motorbikes for repair when they are damaged without complying with periodic maintenance. In particular, not changing lubricant on time (usually after every 1,500 - 2,000km) will cause the oil to degrade and lose its lubrication ability.
At that time, friction between the piston and the increased cylinder will cause bolt scratches, engine heating and reduced compression pressure, making the motorcycle prone to damage or degradation. Therefore, to keep the motorcycle operating smoothly and durablely, do not forget to perform periodic maintenance and oil changes.
