What is the standard tire pressure for a 125cc scooter?
2 Answers
This type of motorcycle is recommended to have a front tire pressure of around 170kpa and a rear tire pressure of around 220kpa. Here are some maintenance tips for 125cc scooters: 1. Engine: The engine is put to the test during long-distance rides, as its temperature rises relatively quickly during operation. High temperatures can easily lead to decreased performance and excessive wear. To address this, it's advisable to use high-quality lubricating oil, and in some cases, synthetic lubricating oil may be necessary. 2. Related systems: The filtration performance and air intake of the intake system can affect the engine's combustion state; the braking system directly impacts driving safety; the walking system directly affects riding comfort. Therefore, it's important to perform relevant checks and maintenance on the intake system, braking system, and walking system.
I've been using my 125cc scooter for several years, and the standard tire pressure is usually 2.0 bar for the front wheel and 2.2 bar for the rear wheel, but it depends on the user manual and vehicle model. When the pressure is too low, the bike feels unstable, braking distance increases, and tire wear accelerates; if it's too high, the ride becomes bumpy and uncomfortable, and the rims are more prone to damage. I make it a habit to check every two weeks, using a portable pressure gauge or getting help at a repair shop. Remember, load weight also affects it—for example, when carrying passengers or items, the rear tire needs slightly higher pressure. During the rainy season or in high temperatures, I also adjust by 0.1-0.2 bar to prevent skidding or blowouts, which has helped me a lot.
