Solutions for locked brakes include: 1. Repairing the internal brake caliper by sanding with sandpaper and applying grease; 2. Replacing the brake caliper if it is faulty; 3. Cleaning the entire braking system and replacing the master cylinder cup; 4. Spraying rust remover or sanding the brake pads and brake drum. Brake lock-up refers to a situation in cars without ABS, where forcefully pressing the brake pedal while driving causes the wheel speed to drop rapidly. When the braking force exceeds the friction between the wheels and the ground, the wheels lock up. The consequences include reduced friction between the tires and the road, leading to dangerous phenomena such as skidding, fishtailing, and sudden spinning.

What are the effects of insufficient motorcycle oil?

Insufficient motorcycle oil mainly leads to increased wear, reduced cooling performance, poor cleanliness, poor sealing, poor anti-corrosion, and poor vibration damping. Lubrication and wear reduction: There is rapid relative sliding between the piston and cylinder, as well as between the main shaft and bearing bush. To prevent excessive wear of parts, an oil film needs to be established between the two sliding surfaces. A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear. Cooling: Engine oil can carry heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air, helping the radiator cool the engine. Good engine oil can carry carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine parts back to the oil tank through circulation, and flush away dirt generated on the working surfaces of parts through the flow of lubricating oil.
