What are the reasons for high fuel consumption in motorcycles?
1 Answers
The reasons for high fuel consumption in motorcycles are as follows: 1. Fuel intake issues: A clogged air filter causes poor air intake, forcing the cylinder to suck in more gasoline. Improper adjustment or maintenance of the carburetor, an overly rich fuel mixture, excessively high main jet needle position, or high fuel level can all lead to increased fuel consumption. 2. Component wear problems: Slippage caused by worn clutch plates or aging springs. Overly tight brakes, cylinder and valve wear leading to reduced cylinder pressure, decreased oil output, and poor lubrication of various parts can result in excessive wear and increased fuel consumption. 3. External driving issues: Insufficient tire pressure. Frequent low-speed driving and poor road conditions causing repeated acceleration and deceleration, as well as frequent braking.
