Kenda tires are from the Kenda brand, founded in 1962 and affiliated with Kenda Rubber (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., representing the highest manufacturing standards in Taiwan's tire industry. They continuously provide customers with tire products for cars, light trucks, bicycles, motorcycles, electric vehicles, wheelchairs, ATVs, golf carts, lawnmowers, horticultural vehicles, engineering, and agricultural vehicles, including both inner and outer tires. The company has grown into a large multinational conglomerate spanning industries such as rubber, lubricants, electronics, finance, real estate, food, and machinery manufacturing, with branches across continents and products marketed worldwide. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high and low temperatures during operation. Therefore, they must have high load-bearing performance, traction performance, and cushioning performance, as well as high wear resistance and flex resistance, along with relatively low rolling resistance and heat generation. They directly contact the road surface and work with the vehicle's suspension to mitigate impacts during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness, maintaining excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road, improving the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability, and bearing the vehicle's weight. Kenda tire maintenance methods: Increase awareness of tire safety and inspect tires regularly. Regularly correct wheel balance, as unbalanced wheels can cause high-frequency oscillations at high speeds, leading to uneven tire wear. Perform regular tire rotation. To ensure even wear on all tires of the same vehicle, rotate the tires every 5,000 kilometers. In daily use of Kenda tires, pay attention to the following points: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to wear from driving, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread is worn flat, it will lose its drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks can also pose a risk of blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles from the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, and air pressure may increase. In such cases, stop to let the tires cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear from dragging on the road.

Is a 125cc Motorcycle Considered a Moped?

125cc motorcycles are classified as light motorcycles, while 30cc-50cc vehicles are categorized as mopeds. According to national standards, any motorcycle above 50cc is considered a standard motorcycle. Below are relevant details: Mopeds: A moped is a type of motorcycle that must comply with all technical standards and legal requirements for motor vehicles. Compared to standard motorcycles, mopeds have lower maximum design speeds, engine displacements, or total motor power. Their technical parameters and performance fall between electric bicycles and motorcycles, and they can be operated by individuals under 70 years old. Definition: Regardless of the propulsion method, a moped is defined as a motorcycle with a maximum design speed not exceeding 50km/h. If powered by an internal combustion engine, its displacement must not exceed 50mL; if electrically powered, the total rated output power of its motor(s) must not exceed 4kW.

What is the optimal sprocket ratio for a 125cc motorcycle?

For a 125cc motorcycle, the front sprocket most commonly has 14 or 15 teeth, while the rear sprocket typically comes with 38, 39, 41, 42, or 43 teeth. Even for motorcycles of the same brand and model, the number of teeth on the sprockets may vary between different production batches. Here is some relevant information: Sprocket Teeth Count: The number of teeth on a motorcycle's sprockets is carefully calculated and set after considering various usage scenarios. When replacing them, it's important to purchase parts with the original tooth count and avoid making arbitrary changes. Alternating Contact Stress: The friction pair between the sprocket and chain involves alternating contact stress, which can easily lead to fatigue pitting on their friction surfaces. The indicator for judging the metal's contact fatigue strength is the contact fatigue limit, which is the maximum stress that does not cause pitting under a certain number of stress cycles.

How much does a 125cc motorcycle weigh?

An ordinary 125cc displacement motorcycle typically weighs between 150 kilograms and 250 kilograms. A motorcycle consists of seven main parts: the engine, transmission section, running gear, operation and braking section, cabin or cargo section, electrical system, and instrumentation. Broadly speaking, motorcycles can be categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, and touring bikes. The weight of a motorcycle generally depends on its displacement, style, and brand. Heavy motorcycles with 600CC or above typically weigh around 400 jin (approximately 200 kilograms), while models like the 1800CC Honda Gold Wing and Harley-Davidson Ultra Glide weigh around 400 jin. Here are detailed introductions about 125cc displacement motorcycles: Overview: 125cc displacement motorcycles specifically refer to motorcycles with an engine displacement of around 125CC. Major motorcycle manufacturers have introduced various brand motorcycles based on this displacement. 125cc motorcycles are a relatively common type of motorcycle. Related Brands: In China, motorcycles with 125cc engines include brands such as Suzuki Haojue, Prince Motorcycle, Honda, BMW, and Yamaha, all of which produce derivative models based on this displacement. The engine parameters of these brands are generally consistent. Motorcycle Purchase Considerations: Check whether the motorcycle's paint is bright and even, and assess the quality of the paint; inspect whether the surface of the chrome-plated parts is bright and free of exposed damage or spots; ensure the welding joints are smooth; verify that the machined surfaces are smooth; confirm that all parts of the motorcycle are complete and undamaged; and check whether the front and rear shock absorbers are properly aligned.

What size hole should be drilled for an M12 screw?

If tapping is required, the standard pitch for an M12 screw is 1.75mm. Generally, a 10.3mm hole should be drilled. For harder materials like D2, a 10.5-10.7mm hole can be drilled. Below is relevant information: Determining screw type: The drill bit size for an M12 screw depends on the screw type. Even for screws of the same model, the required drill bit size may vary. For example, a 10.3mm drill bit can be used for tapping M12 screws, where the drill bit size is typically the screw diameter minus the pitch. Measuring pitch method: When measuring pitch, it's best to imprint the thread crest on white chalk for clearer marks that facilitate measurement. For metric pitch measurement, measure a length (e.g., 10, 15, or 20mm), count the number of threads in that length, then calculate the pitch. Threads specified in inches use imperial units, such as: G1".

How Often Should the Engine Oil Be Changed for a 125cc Scooter?

If it is a new scooter during the break-in period, it is best to change the engine oil at 300 or 500 kilometers, then again at 600 or 800, and 1000 or 1500 kilometers. It is recommended to change the oil three times during the break-in period because the friction between components during this phase can produce metal shavings and other impurities that mix into the oil, leading to accelerated wear. After the break-in period, change the oil every 2000 kilometers. For a scooter, whether to use 5W40 or 10W40 depends on the lowest winter temperature in your region. If the winter temperature drops below -25°C, use 5W40; if it does not go below -25°C, either can be used—both 5W40 and 10W40 are suitable. If the scooter is used frequently in summer, it is advisable to change the oil a few hundred kilometers earlier or even sooner. In the oil grade, the number before the 'W' represents the oil's flow performance. 5W indicates normal flow at temperatures below -30°C, 0W means below -35°C, and 10W can flow normally below -25°C. The number after the 'W' represents the oil's high-temperature viscosity—the higher the number, the greater the viscosity. Engine oil is extremely important for engine operation as it serves two critical functions: lubrication and heat dissipation. Therefore, when selecting engine oil, consider the characteristics of your motorcycle's engine and your riding habits. If you frequently operate at high RPMs, use higher-viscosity oil to protect the engine. If fuel economy is a priority, opt for lower-viscosity oil to reduce engine resistance.
