Based on the engine layout, installing a properly sized fan and adjusting its direction can, to some extent, assist in cooling. Following the path of the engine lubricating oil, adding an oil cooler can also help with auxiliary cooling. Air-cooled motorcycles can improve cooling efficiency by switching to high-quality lubricating oil, cleaning the cylinder head cooling fins, and reducing prolonged high-speed riding.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of the auto-hold function?

The advantages of the auto-hold function are: 1. It prevents the vehicle from rolling when encountering short stops such as traffic lights; 2. When starting on an uphill slope, the system automatically brakes to prevent rolling back, and releases the wheels to move forward once the vehicle starts; 3. There is no need to pull the handbrake when parking and locking the car, as the system automatically brakes the wheels, but this feature is only available in some models. The disadvantage of the auto-hold function is: Poor throttle control during reversing may lead to accidents. The auto-hold function is an extension of the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) and controls the four-wheel braking through ESP. During this process, the ECU computer uses sensors installed on the vehicle to detect the vehicle's level and wheel torque, determining whether braking is needed to prevent rolling. The braking force applied to the wheels is not excessive, just enough to stop the vehicle from moving, ensuring there is no severe lurch forward when the accelerator is pressed again.
