Why Does the Motorcycle Make Abnormal Noises When Shifting Gears?
1 Answers
Motorcycle shifting abnormal noises can be caused by improper operation, normal performance, clutch failure, sprocket wear, or chain looseness. Specific related introductions are as follows: Improper Operation: When starting the vehicle, the throttle must be closed to the minimum to avoid the occurrence of such noise. If the throttle is increased before shifting, most vehicles will produce this abnormal noise. Normal Performance: This is mainly directly related to the design and manufacturing process of the vehicle. If the manufacturing precision does not meet the standard, the clutch will not separate completely. At this time, shifting into first gear will produce a noticeable noise, accompanied by the phenomenon of the vehicle jerking forward. Clutch Failure: As the vehicle's service life increases, the clutch may experience poor separation, leading to this noise. It is very similar to the second scenario but can be reduced or completely eliminated through maintenance. Sprocket Wear: If the sprocket is excessively worn, this phenomenon can also occur, especially when the front sprocket is worn. Most motorcycles will produce this abnormal noise, mainly due to slippage between the sprocket and the chain. Chain Looseness: This phenomenon occurs only in a very few models. It is mainly caused by the chain jumping when shifting gears due to chain looseness, producing the noise.
