What Causes Motorcycle Idle Instability and Stalling?
1 Answers
The reason for motorcycle idle instability and stalling is excessive idle speed. Effects and solutions for low idle speed: Excessive idle speed makes ignition and starting difficult. Generally, a motorcycle engine can ignite at over 200 RPM, meaning it has already started but stalls due to the idle speed being too low to stabilize. Slightly increasing the idle speed can solve the problem. Reasons for stalling during gear shifting: Stalling can also occur during gear shifting, which is another sign of low idle speed. Of course, some chain-driven engines have a significant difference between cold and hot idle speeds. For example, the idle speed may be only 1,200 RPM when cold but exceed 2,000 RPM when hot, causing many people to hesitate to adjust it slightly higher. This is also one reason why consumers prefer pushrod engines due to the poor performance of domestic chain-driven engines.
