The consequences of water entering a motorcycle engine are as follows: Water immersion: If the engine is not started, it will not cause irreversible damage to the engine. The main task is to clean the accumulated water inside the engine, but the cleaning extent should be considered according to the situation. A small amount of water entering the cylinder: In some cases, the engine can still be started due to the small amount of water, and the owner may not notice it. If the owner continues to drive at this time, the piston may get stuck in the cylinder, the connecting rod may bend or break, or even directly pierce the cylinder. Such an engine may require major repairs or be scrapped, leaving behind sequelae such as shaking, power loss, and malfunctions. A large amount of water entering the cylinder: This situation causes the most severe damage to the engine. The engine will be directly scrapped.
