Why does the motorcycle not move when accelerating?

This is because the engine needs to warm up. Usually, engine warm-up can protect the engine's lifespan. Below is a partial introduction about motorcycle generators: Introduction: The engine has high rotational speed, generally above 5000 RPM. The specific power (effective power output per liter of engine displacement) is large, generally around 60 kW/liter, indicating that the motorcycle engine has a high degree of intensification and a compact external size. High-power motorcycle engines use a forced air cooling method with a fan and air deflector to blow cooling air onto the fins, ensuring cooling when the speed is low or before the motorcycle starts moving. Working principle: The rotation of the motorcycle throttle handle drives the throttle cable to operate the throttle valve and fuel injection needle, moving them up and down to change the intake throat cross-section and fuel supply, adapting to the mixture requirements at different speeds and loads.
I just started learning to ride a motorcycle last year. That time when I revved the throttle but it didn't move, it really scared me. Later, I realized it might be a clutch issue, like a loose or improperly adjusted clutch cable, causing the engine to run but not transmit power to the rear wheel. If the chain is too loose or has come off, it can also prevent movement. First, try squeezing the clutch lever in a safe place to see if it operates smoothly. Additionally, a clogged fuel line or a dirty air filter can make the engine too weak to move the bike. My instructor taught me to regularly check the chain tension and clutch adjustment. Also, don't forget the possibility of stuck brake pads, especially when the wheels get muddy in the rain. Manually moving the rear wheel can help diagnose this. It's important to fix these issues early to avoid being stranded on the road and ensure safe riding. Regular maintenance, cleaning, and lubrication are key to prevention.
