What are the reasons why a motorcycle can only reach a speed of 80?

Insufficient power in a motorcycle, resulting in slow speed, is usually caused by issues such as a damaged cylinder head gasket leading to air leakage, or the throttle linkage not returning to its position after being opened. Below are extended methods for inspecting and repairing insufficient power in motorcycles: 1. Check the air filter: Mainly inspect whether the filter element is clean. If it is covered with dust, it can be washed with soapy water, dried, and then reinstalled. 2. Check whether the cylinder pressure is normal: You can unscrew the spark plug and press your thumb firmly against the spark plug hole, then step on the kick starter. If you cannot hold it firmly, it is normal. If no air is expelled when pressed, it indicates air leakage in the cylinder or combustion chamber.
