Because the tire hasn't been sanded, the adhesion is insufficient. Here is relevant information about tire repair: 1. Cold Patching: During cold patching, the tire needs to be removed, the puncture located, and any debris around the puncture cleaned. Then, a special tire repair patch is applied from the inside of the tire to complete the repair. This method is similar to bicycle tire repair, but it requires a specialized tire repair machine and patches. 2. Using a Mushroom Plug: A rubber patch shaped like a mushroom is used. The puncture is located from inside the tire, the mushroom stem is pushed through to the outside, and the exposed part is trimmed off. The inner part is then glued with special adhesive. The mushroom stem provides an external repair effect, while the inner part serves as an internal repair. The mushroom plug method takes longer and is more expensive than other repair methods, but it offers better and more durable results, making it clearly the best tire repair method.

The fog light switch is located on the lighting stalk to the left of the steering wheel. Rotate the stalk to turn on the fog lights, but note that the parking lights must be turned on first. The lighting stalk includes controls for parking lights, width indicator lights, low beams, and high beams.

What to Do If the Motorcycle ABS Light Stays On?

Check the wiring connection between the wheel speed sensor and the ABS control unit. Inspect the installation gap and position of the wheel speed sensor and the tone ring, as well as any contamination by dust or debris. Check if the wheel bearing gap is too large. Sensor malfunction: If the ABS warning light comes on while riding, it will cause all four wheels to lock up during emergency braking, meaning the ABS system does not function at all.

What to Do When the Motorcycle Lights Are On but It Won't Start?

First, try starting the motorcycle and then increase the RPM to run it for a while. Check if the battery voltage has increased. You can observe it on the motorcycle dashboard or directly connect a multimeter to the battery terminals. If there is no fluctuation in the battery voltage after starting, it indicates a damaged generator or the connection wire between the generator and the battery. In this case, you can replace the engine coil or the connection wire.

How to Adjust the Brake Light Wire of a Motorcycle?

Step on or hold down the rear brake and keep it pressed. Loosen the screw on the rear brake caliper, and brake fluid will seep out. After 1 or 2 seconds, tighten the screw. Throughout this process, keep the rear brake pressed, and you can release it only after finally tightening the screw. Pump the rear brake repeatedly about a dozen times to enhance the break-in.

Can the transmission mileage be altered?

Transmission mileage can be altered. Here is the relevant information: 1. Vehicle odometer: There are two types of vehicle odometers for calculating mileage - mechanical and electronic. Mechanical odometers are typically modified by reversing the mechanism. Electronic odometers require ECU flashing, which is more technically demanding but quicker, though it comes with a fee since the ECU cannot be flashed arbitrarily. 2. Basis: The odometer displays the distance the vehicle has traveled, serving as a basis for assessing vehicle quality and maintenance. 3. Classification: Depending on the transmission structure, transmission fluid is categorized into manual transmission fluid and automatic transmission fluid.
