Is it mandatory to scrap motorcycles after 10 years?
1 Answers
Not mandatory. According to new national regulations, the service life of two-wheeled motorcycles is 10 years, which can be extended by 3 years. However, during the extended 3-year period, semi-annual inspections are required, and the extension is only permitted after passing the inspection. After reaching 13 years, mandatory scrapping must be implemented. Below is an introduction about scrapped vehicles: 1. Definition: Scrapped vehicles refer to those that have reached a certain service life, or have suffered severe damage or poor technical conditions due to other reasons, cannot be repaired, have fuel consumption exceeding 50% of the national standard, and must be mandatorily scrapped as per government regulations. 2. Overview: When a vehicle reaches a certain age, most components of its various systems have completed their service life, and maintenance and repairs can no longer ensure safe driving. It should be scrapped and replaced in a timely manner.
