An ordinary motorcycle typically weighs between 150 kilograms and 250 kilograms, depending mainly on its displacement, model, and brand. Generally, a motorcycle consists of seven major components: the engine, transmission system, running gear, control and braking system, cabin or cargo compartment, electrical system, and instrument panel. Daily maintenance tips for motorcycles include: 1. During the break-in period, keep the motorcycle idle speed at 100 rpm; 2. Match the gear with the speed; 3. When braking is required due to an obstacle ahead, release the throttle, step on the rear brake with your right foot, and gently apply the front brake with your right hand; 4. Regularly inspect the spark plug; 5. When installing a new spark plug, hand-tighten it until it doesn't turn anymore, then use a spark plug socket to tighten it an additional quarter to half turn; 6. Lubricate the chain regularly.

Motorcycle weight really varies depending on the model. I've ridden quite a few myself. The lightest are those small scooters, like the Vespa, just over 100 kilograms—easy to turn and park, even for women, and super convenient for daily commuting. Heavier sport bikes, like the Yamaha R3, can reach up to 160 kilograms. They're fun to accelerate but require skill, so beginners should be careful. The heaviest are cruisers, like Harley-Davidsons, which can exceed 300 kilograms fully equipped. They're super stable on highways but a bit tough to park. When choosing a bike, don’t just focus on looks—weight directly affects handling. Lighter bikes save fuel but have more wind resistance, while heavier ones are stable but consume more fuel. It’s best to choose based on your needs, with safety first.

Where is the cabin air filter located in the old Ford Focus?

The cabin air filter in the old Ford Focus is located on the inner side of the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat. You can see it by removing the glove compartment. When the car is running with the air conditioning on, it draws in outside air into the cabin. However, the air contains many different particles. Without the cabin air filter, these particles can enter the cabin, not only contaminating the car's air conditioning system but also causing allergic reactions in passengers who inhale dust and harmful gases. The dimensions of the Focus are 4647mm in length, 1810mm in width, and 1468mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2705mm. The car's engine has a maximum horsepower of 122Ps, a maximum power of 90kW, and a maximum torque of 153Nm.

What is the correct practice for drivers when passing through waterlogged roads?

When driving through waterlogged roads, drivers should slow down or avoid them, and must not accelerate to pass through. Below are precautions for driving a motor vehicle through water: 1. Drive in a low gear: Use a low gear (for automatic transmission vehicles, engage the hill-climbing gear) and slowly and steadily pass through the waterlogged road while maintaining control of the steering wheel. Pay attention to whether there are potholes or gaps under the waterlogged section of the road. 2. Do not restart the engine after stalling: If the vehicle stalls in the waterlogged section, remember not to restart the engine. Since the engine stalling indicates that water has entered the cylinders, restarting it could cause severe damage due to the incompressibility of water, leading to bending or breaking of the piston connecting rod components, and in severe cases, even complete engine failure.

What are the types of car electronic anti-theft locks?

Car electronic anti-theft locks can be divided into three categories: mechanical anti-theft locks, electronic anti-theft alarm locks, and networked anti-theft (positioning, tracking) systems. Car anti-theft locks include: electronic car anti-theft locks, network car anti-theft locks, fuel circuit locks, clutch brake anti-theft locks, wheel anti-theft locks, gear locks, steering wheel locks, car anti-theft magnetic sheets, etc. The anti-theft logic of car engines: when the ignition switch is turned on, the key transponder and the anti-theft controller form the first information exchange. If the identification codes between the key and the chip are different, the anti-theft controller will not continue to communicate with the ECU, and the ignition system and fuel injection system circuits remain open, preventing the engine from starting.

Is Shell HX7 a Fully Synthetic Oil?

Shell HX7 is not a fully synthetic oil but a semi-synthetic oil. Fully Synthetic Oil: Fully synthetic oil is a high-grade lubricant among motor oils. It is derived from ethylene or propylene dispersed from natural gas or crude oil, which undergoes complex chemical reactions such as polymerization and catalysis to form a lubricating fluid composed of large molecules. Semi-Synthetic Oil: Semi-synthetic oil is a type of motor oil. It is formulated using semi-synthetic base oils, specifically Group III base oils internationally. It is a product refined from mineral oil through hydro-cracking technology, blended with a ratio of 40% mineral oil and 60% fully synthetic oil. Semi-synthetic oil has a purity very close to that of fully synthetic oil but is slightly more expensive than mineral oil. It serves as an ideal transitional product between mineral oil and synthetic oil.
