How to Adjust the Odometer on a Motorcycle?
1 Answers
Most can be adjusted by reversing. Here are the relevant details: 1. Brake Pads and Brake Discs: The purpose of adjusting the odometer on a used motorcycle is to sell it at a higher price with a lower mileage. Therefore, other parts of the vehicle are usually not adjusted to save costs. Hence, checking the condition of parts like the brake disc can help identify if the odometer has been tampered with. 2. Chain Wear: The transmission method is generally chain-driven, with a few using belt drives. For chain-driven vehicles, the chain will wear over time during use, requiring regular maintenance and adjustment of its length. The adjusted chain length can be observed on the motorcycle's rear swingarm.
