How Many Years Until a Motorcycle is Generally Scrapped?

[ChristianDella]

National regulations stipulate that the service life of a two-wheeled motorcycle is 10 years, which can be extended by 3 years. However, during the extended 3-year period, the motorcycle must undergo a semi-annual inspection, and only after passing the inspection can the extension be granted. After 13 years, the motorcycle must be mandatorily scrapped. Below are some key points regarding the normal use of motorcycles: Vehicle Start-up: When starting the motorcycle, always complete the self-check and aim for an instant start. If the first ignition attempt fails, pause briefly before trying again. If the motorcycle fails to start after three consecutive attempts, stop trying and investigate the cause. Vehicle Warm-up: During warm-up, avoid randomly revving the throttle. Let the engine idle for two to three minutes; this duration can be slightly shortened in summer. The benefit of warming up is that it allows all parts of the engine to quickly reach optimal lubrication, preparing the motorcycle for normal starting and riding. Vehicle Take-off: Locate the engagement point of the clutch and hold it steady. Then, gradually apply throttle while gently releasing the clutch to complete the take-off operation.
