(Baonghean.vn) - Driving a powerful machine from a large displacement motorbike is the passion of many people. However, large displacement motorbike drivers need to equip themselves with the necessary knowledge to drive more safely.

1. Let the gas tank run dry

This is a common mistake made by new drivers. When there is too little gasoline, it will lead to sediment because the gasoline still contains impurities that can clog the pump or fuel injector or damage the carburetor due to a stuck fuel float.

When the fuel runs out, the suction force will be stronger because the fuel pump sucks in some air, which can cause an explosion inside the intake manifold, leading to the engine running jerkily.

2. Not performing oil changes and regular maintenance

Engine oil and coolant are the two most important components. If you do not pay attention to changing them on time and with the right type and capacity, the engine will quickly break down and have to replace the machine parts.

Some other adjustments such as chain tensioning, clutch cable, throttle cable clamp, air filter cleaning, fuel injector cleaning... are also often overlooked because the owner forgets or does not pay attention, causing the vehicle to quickly deteriorate, which can be dangerous in some situations.

3. Lazy to clean the brake system

Over time, dirty brakes when operating will generate heat, brake dust and metal shavings, causing the brake parts to lose performance. If the system is not cleaned for a long time, the brake system will not work, lose grip, or even lock up, leading to brake burn, oil pipe rupture due to boiling brake fluid...

Paying attention to cleaning the brake system will help the driver grasp the situation and take early replacement measures because this is the system that directly ensures safety for the user.

4. Sitting on the bike with the side stand on

This mistake is very common in most users with all types of vehicles. Particularly the kickstand of large displacement vehicles is mostly designed to bear the weight of the vehicle, frequently sitting on it will cause the kickstand to gradually deform and damage.

In particular, some expensive car models have kickstands attached directly to the engine block, which can cause damage to the engine block such as thread stripping, cracking, or more seriously, breaking the engine block.

5. Lead the bike by holding onto the strap on the back of the bike.

The strap located on the rear seat is designed for the rear passenger to hold on to, tie down not-too-heavy bags, or to put their hands underneath when leading the bike.

However, because most large displacement models do not have a handle at the back, many people hold this belt tightly when pushing the bike, causing the belt to easily break, and when pushing the bike, it can cause the bike to fall because it cannot be supported in time.

6. Do not remove the gas and battery when leaving the vehicle for a long time.

Be careful to leave gasoline in the tank for a long time as this can easily lead to "gasoline rot", creating a film that clogs the fuel pump and makes it difficult to control.

Not removing the battery will cause the battery to run out of power quickly, making it difficult to restart the vehicle due to not being charged for a long time because even when the engine is turned off, the battery still has to power the electrical system, ECU as well as other warnings depending on the vehicle model. In some cases, it can cause a short circuit or fire.

7. Over-inflating tires

Many people like to inflate their tires to go longer, but this is a fatal mistake. Over-inflated tires will cause the car to bounce a lot, vibrate a lot, reduce traction, poor road contact, reduce braking ability, cornering ability, and cause uneven tire wear.

Not to mention when driving on hot days, high temperatures can cause tires to explode due to thermal expansion, posing a danger to the driver.

8. Do not use lubricants on nuts and bolts.

Normally, to tighten the bolt, it is necessary to check the threads match each other, tighten enough force. Applying grease according to the manufacturer's instructions does not make the bolt or screw easy to strip but also makes maintenance easier.

Reducing friction between bolts and screws with lubricant, along with sufficient tightening force will make these parts tighten more.

9. Cut the exhaust clutch continuously

The company's experts warn that this action is very harmful. Most users also know that frequent clutching not only wastes unnecessary fuel, but also causes the engine to overheat quickly, easily wearing out machine parts.

However, because it is an enjoyable activity, many people still find it difficult to give up this habit even though they know it is harmful to the engine.

10. Brake continuously when going downhill

The habit of not using the brake but continuously using the brake when going downhill is often found in new drivers. This causes the oil in the tube to boil quickly, the brake pads to overheat, causing loss of braking ability as well as the brake discs to lose friction ability.

All of these problems become more serious when going downhill. Even with ABS, improper braking when going downhill continuously will cause the system to lose its effectiveness. In some cases, the disc will burn out or even break, which can cause the vehicle to roll over very dangerously.
