What Causes a Motorcycle to Fail to Start After Getting Wet in the Rain?
1 Answers
The reason a motorcycle fails to start after getting wet in the rain is that the air filter and carburetor inhale moist air, and rainwater or moisture in the air causes poor electrical connections. The solution is to remove the air filter and carburetor and blow them dry. A motorcycle is a two- or three-wheeled vehicle driven by a gasoline engine and steered by handlebars controlling the front wheel. It is lightweight, flexible, fast, and widely used for patrol, passenger and cargo transportation, as well as a sports equipment. Broadly speaking, motorcycles are categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, and touring bikes. A motorcycle consists of five main parts: the engine, transmission system, running gear, braking system, and electrical and instrument equipment.
