What does motorcycle cc equal to in terms of displacement?
1 Answers
Motorcycle cc refers to the displacement of the engine used in the motorcycle. Generally, the displacement of a motorcycle engine is 200cc, and the engine data may vary depending on the cooling method. Air-cooled engine: Due to the limitations of the cooling method, the horsepower of the engine cannot be overly exploited. If the engine horsepower is pushed too hard, the engine may overheat during operation, leading to cylinder seizure or crankshaft locking. Therefore, air-cooled engines have strict limits on compression ratios and maximum RPM. Liquid-cooled engine: There are fewer limiting factors on horsepower. Liquid cooling is more efficient than air cooling, allowing for higher horsepower output. During operation, a liquid-cooled engine can achieve higher RPMs.
