When the teeth of the motorcycle sprocket become sharpened or the chain and teeth do not mesh well, it should be replaced. Functions of the Motorcycle Sprocket: 1. Energy Saving: When a sprocket is installed on a motorcycle, the driving sprocket, through the chain, drives the driven sprocket and the outer wheel, which then engages the inner sleeve via pawls to rotate the rear wheel and propel the motorcycle forward. 2. Reduced Resistance: When the throttle is closed, the rear wheel continues to move forward using the motorcycle's inertia, automatically disengaging from the sprocket and transmission system of the energy-saving sprocket, eliminating the resistance from the transmission system and engine that was passively dragged during inertial travel. Background of Motorcycle Sprockets: Currently, most motorcycle sprockets are of a one-piece structure, where the transmission gear disc and the wheel hub are connected and rotate together. When the engine is turned off, the motorcycle can only operate if placed in neutral, and it is not possible to coast by closing the throttle at any time, whether on flat ground or downhill. For motorcycles, due to their slower speed, this not only wastes fuel but also increases engine wear, reducing the engine's service life.

What are the reasons for Tesla's brake failure?

Tesla's brake failure reasons are as follows: 1. Brake acceleration: There is a communication issue between the brake pedal and the brake-by-wire system, causing the vehicle to accelerate instead of decelerating when the brake is pressed, leading to brake system failure. 2. Design defect: The Bosch iBooster has a design flaw. While Tesla vehicles can actively engage the brake-by-wire system when sensors detect danger, there can still be errors, delays, or interruptions in electrical signal transmission, resulting in brake failure or sudden acceleration. 3. Bug: Tesla modified the iBooster to 'perfectly match' its own AutoPilot system, but this introduced a bug that can cause brake failure.
