What does motorcycle coasting mean?
1 Answers
Motorcycle coasting refers to sliding in neutral gear or with the clutch disengaged. Here is an introduction to motorcycle coasting: 1. Reasons for coasting: It occurs when the clutch engagement point is not sufficiently released (the clutch is released too low), or when the throttle is not applied (the engine idle speed is too low to drive the vehicle to start) while the handbrake is released. 2. Hazards: Since the vehicle is in neutral coasting, the connection between the engine and the drive wheels is lost, and the vehicle moves forward by its own inertia. In case of an emergency requiring braking, all braking force must be provided by the brakes alone. When coasting in gear, the engine itself provides a certain restraining effect, and combined with the brakes, the vehicle's braking distance is shortened. Saving fuel is minor, safety comes first. It is recommended not to coast in neutral arbitrarily.
