How many kilometers can a water-cooled motorcycle run continuously?
1 Answers
How many kilometers a water-cooled motorcycle can run continuously largely depends on the fuel capacity. Typically, the range of a motorcycle is around two hundred kilometers. Advantages of water-cooled motorcycles: Water cooling is an essential cooling system for multi-cylinder, high-power, and high-speed engines. Water-cooled engines are currently the mainstream, offering high cooling efficiency, reliable operation, and effective temperature control for high-power and high-speed engines. In water-cooled motorcycles, the throttle valve closes when the temperature is low until the oil temperature rises to achieve optimal lubrication. When the temperature is high, the throttle valve fully opens, and the radiator starts working. If the temperature becomes too high, the fan activates to cool the engine down to its optimal operating temperature. This is the standard working principle of water cooling. Disadvantages of water-cooled motorcycles: High cost, complex structure, and high failure rate, as the external radiator also occupies more space. Blindly converting to water cooling not only fails to improve performance but can also lead to longer warm-up times, excessive cold-engine wear, and premature oil burning.
