Kawasaki motorcycles with speed limiters removed cannot pass the annual inspection. Introduction to annual inspection: The annual inspection refers to the safety inspection conducted annually or biennially on vehicles, which includes comprehensive checks on components such as horns, brakes, axle weight, chassis, ignition system, lighting system, exhaust system, and license plate installation. Annual inspection schedule: Article 16 of the Implementing Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that motor vehicles must undergo safety technical inspections within specified periods from the date of registration. Passenger vehicles must be inspected once a year within the first 5 years; every 6 months after exceeding 5 years. Trucks and large/medium-sized non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected once a year within the first 10 years; every 6 months after exceeding 10 years. Small and mini non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected once every 2 years within the first 6 years; once a year after exceeding 6 years; every 6 months after exceeding 15 years. Motorcycles must be inspected once every 2 years within the first 4 years; once a year after exceeding 4 years.

Kawasaki motorcycles with speed limiters removed basically can't pass the annual inspection. Last time, I personally saw a fellow rider flash the ECU to remove the speed limiter, and during the annual inspection, the OBD scan immediately showed a fault code. The staff asked him to restore the factory parameters on the spot, and the emission test results also exceeded the national standard by more than double. Nowadays, the inspection cameras also verify the vehicle parameters against the registration certificate. My cousin removed the speed limiter pin and changed the sprocket, but the wheel size didn't match the factory specifications. The mechanic said that legally removing the speed limiter counts as illegal modification, and the inspection station will directly record it in their system.

What are the reasons for uneven tire pressure?

The reasons for uneven tire pressure are: each tire experiences slightly different driving conditions, especially in summer when the side exposed to sunlight has a higher temperature, resulting in slightly higher tire pressure. Additionally, the friction coefficient of the ground and minor differences during the inflation of each tire can also lead to uneven tire pressure, which is a common occurrence. As long as the difference is not significant, it is not a problem. Tire pressure monitoring is divided into direct tire pressure monitoring and indirect tire pressure monitoring. The direct tire pressure monitoring system has pressure sensors and transmitters installed on each wheel, which alert the driver when the tire pressure is 25% below the cold tire pressure. The indirect tire pressure warning system relies on calculating the rolling radius of the tire to monitor air pressure.

What to Do When the Car Key Won't Unlock the Door?

The solutions for when the car key won't unlock the door are: 1. Replace the battery; 2. Use the mechanical key to unlock the door; 3. Inspect and repair the sensor module. The method for replacing the car key battery is: 1. Remove the mechanical key; 2. Insert a flat-head screwdriver into the bottom "open" position and pry up and down; 3. Once a gap appears, use the screwdriver to pry open the key along the gap; 4. Remove the old battery and replace it with a new one. The reasons why the car key won't unlock the door are: 1. Insufficient battery power in the key; 2. The car battery is dead and cannot sense the key; 3. Issues with the sensor key or sensor module.

Why won't the steering wheel of my newly purchased car return to center automatically?

Newly purchased car's steering wheel should return to center automatically. Auto-centering issue: A minor auto-centering issue means the steering wheel can partially return to center but not completely, which can be resolved through wheel alignment. During wheel alignment, adjusting the parameters of kingpin inclination and caster angle can alter the steering wheel's auto-centering effect. Kingpin inclination primarily affects low-speed auto-centering, while caster angle plays a more significant role in high-speed centering. Causes of the problem: Collision accidents often lead to deviations in wheel alignment and may also cause issues such as vehicle pulling to one side or severe tire wear on one side.

What Causes Cold Idle Shaking?

Cold idle shaking occurs due to the following reasons: Poor combustion in the cylinders: The fundamental cause of cold idle shaking is poor combustion in the cylinders. Insufficient combustion leads to inadequate power output, resulting in vehicle shaking. Insufficient engine temperature: When the engine temperature is too low, both fuel and lubricating oil fail to reach optimal temperatures. Therefore, during a cold start, more fuel is injected to meet power demands. Larger spark plug gaps result in weaker ignition energy. Poor fuel atomization at low temperatures: At low temperatures, fuel atomization is less effective, requiring higher ignition energy. Over time, spark plug gaps tend to widen, reducing ignition energy and consequently affecting power output, which leads to vehicle shaking.
