What Causes the Abnormal Noise in the Rear Shock Absorber of a Motorcycle?
1 Answers
The reasons for abnormal noise in the rear shock absorber of a motorcycle are as follows: 1. Shock absorber oil leakage: A normal shock absorber has a dry and clean outer surface. If there is oil leakage, it indicates that the hydraulic oil inside the shock absorber has escaped from the upper part of the piston rod. In this case, the shock absorber is basically ineffective. 2. Body roll: When the car is cornering, there is a noticeable increase in body roll, and in severe cases, even side slip may occur. This is mainly because the damping force of the shock absorber is too small to effectively suppress the compression of the spring. 3. Low shell temperature: After driving on rough road conditions for a while, touch the shells of each shock absorber to feel their temperature. Normally, the shock absorber shell should be warm. If a shock absorber shell is cold, it means the shock absorber is damaged.
