Xi'an electric mopeds and electric motorcycles cannot apply for electric bicycle license plates. The 'Shaanxi Public Security Traffic Police Electric Bicycle Management Platform' only processes non-compliant electric bicycle license plates. If the vehicle invoice, certificate of conformity, or the body of the vehicle clearly indicates that it is an electric moped or electric motorcycle, do not apply for an electric bicycle license plate. Otherwise, the backend will not be able to approve it. To determine whether your vehicle is a motorcycle, you can check the vehicle purchase invoice or the vehicle certificate of conformity. Below is additional information: Requirements: The requirements for electric bicycles are a maximum speed not exceeding 25 km/h, a total weight including the battery of 55 kg, a motor power below 400W, must have human-powered assistance, and must be equipped with pedals. Regulations: The distance between the front and rear wheel centers must not exceed 1.25m, the body width must not exceed 0.45m, and no modifications are allowed. Vehicles that meet these standards are managed as non-motorized vehicles, while those exceeding these standards are classified as electric motorcycles and managed as motor vehicles.

I've been riding an electric motorcycle in Xi'an for over a year. The new regulation requires that starting from 2023, all electric motorcycles with a speed exceeding 25 kilometers per hour must be registered and managed as motor vehicles. After purchasing a new bike, I took my ID card, purchase invoice, and vehicle certification to the vehicle management office to complete the procedures, and also paid over 80 yuan for compulsory traffic insurance. The entire process took half a day and cost just over 120 yuan. Now, traffic police are enforcing strict checks—riding without a license plate can result in a fine of 200 to 500 yuan, and the vehicle may even be impounded. This regulation aims to reduce traffic accidents, as there have been too many issues with modified vehicles in the past. I recommend completing the registration within 15 days after purchasing a bike, rather than waiting until you're fined. Once registered, riding becomes more worry-free, and in case of any scrapes, there's insurance to fall back on—safe and hassle-free.

What are the symptoms of a faulty front shock absorber?

The symptoms of a faulty front shock absorber include: 1. Abnormal noises from the shock absorber when driving on bumpy roads; 2. Oil leakage on the exterior of the shock absorber; 3. Excessive body bouncing and instability when driving over uneven surfaces; 4. High temperature on the shock absorber casing after driving. The working principle of a shock absorber: When relative motion occurs between the frame or body and the axle due to vibration, the piston inside the shock absorber moves up and down. The oil inside the shock absorber chamber repeatedly flows from one chamber to another through various orifices. The friction between the orifice walls and the oil, as well as the internal friction among oil molecules, creates a damping force that converts the vehicle's vibrational energy into heat energy of the oil, which is then absorbed and dissipated into the air by the shock absorber.

How to Replace a Lost Garage Key?

To replace a lost garage key, visit a 4S store. Below are detailed instructions regarding garage keys: 1. Key Replacement Details: Every vehicle comes with a pre-set anti-theft code. The owner only needs to provide the vehicle license and identity information to the 4S store, which can then configure a new key. Additionally, the 4S store can erase the data of the lost key, rendering it invalid and unable to start the vehicle. 2. Precautions: A professional is required to match the new key with the vehicle's anti-theft controller. The new key will only function after this matching process is completed, and the old key will become invalid.

Can You Drive Without Water in the Auxiliary Tank?

The auxiliary tank being empty means you cannot drive. The auxiliary tank is a component of the engine cooling system and plays a role in balancing the pressure of the radiator. The maintenance methods for the auxiliary tank include: 1. Stop and check if the temperature is found to be too high while driving; 2. Immediately stop and inspect if the car's radiator is smoking; 3. Regularly replace the coolant. The reasons for the auxiliary tank running low on water are: 1. There is a leak in the cooling system or a slight issue with the cylinder head gasket; 2. The coolant temperature is too high, causing the system to lack water; 3. The water pump seizes, leading to timing belt damage and causing the piston to hit the valve; 4. The cylinder gasket is compromised, mixing with engine oil or being expelled through the exhaust pipe.

Is it still necessary to attach the car insurance paper to the windshield?

It is no longer necessary to attach the car insurance paper to the windshield. Here is some extended information about motor vehicle insurance: 1. Basic information: Automobile insurance, also known as motor vehicle insurance or car insurance, refers to a type of commercial insurance that covers liability for personal injury, death, or property damage caused by natural disasters or accidents involving motor vehicles. As a form of property insurance, car insurance has evolved and matured alongside the emergence and widespread use of automobiles. 2. Development trends: In the domestic car insurance market, PICC, Ping An, and CPIC hold the top three market shares. However, with the growth and expansion of specialized car insurance companies such as Tianping Auto Insurance and Zhongcheng Auto Insurance, the market concentration of car insurance has further decreased, leading to increasingly fierce market competition.

What Does a Car Lens Look Like?

Car lenses are round, completely transparent glass bodies. Below is an introduction to car lenses: 1. Light concentration: Because lenses have strong light-concentrating capabilities, they not only illuminate the road brightly but also clearly when used for lighting. Due to minimal light dispersion, their light range is farther and clearer than that of ordinary halogen lamps. This allows drivers to see distant objects in time, avoiding missing intersections or targets. 2. Energy saving: The lifespan of HID bulbs inside the lenses is 8 to 10 times that of ordinary bulbs, eliminating the unnecessary hassle of frequent replacements. Lens xenon lamps do not require any additional power supply system, as genuine HID gas discharge lamps only need a voltage stabilizer to convert 12V voltage into normal voltage, providing stable and continuous power for the xenon bulbs to emit light, thereby achieving energy-saving functionality.
