The motorcycle as a vehicle appeared onyear before the car. Invented by G. Daimler, whose name is inextricably linked with another talented German engineer - K. Benz, who built the first car in the world. Despite the fact that the device of the motorcycle in 1885 was extremely primitive, and the supporting structure was a wooden frame, it was this device that became the prototype of all the bikes that cut the space in our days.
У автомобиля и мотоцикла много общего.Both are driven by an internal combustion engine. They have transmission, brakes, fuel supply, cooling, ignition, carburetor, steering wheel, muffler, seats and a gas tank. There are also additional operational devices and, of course, a load-bearing structure that unites all these nodes. At the car it is a body, and at a bike - a frame.
Устройство двигателя мотоцикла, как правило, combined with the gearbox, is different for different models. It can be two- or four-stroke. The number of cylinders can also vary from one to two. The principle of operation is the same, with the usual operating cycle, piston and crank mechanism.
System that protects the motor from overheating, it happensair and water. When operating the bike, you should closely monitor the filter status, because if it is clogged, the engine will stop rotating and begin to stall.
The device of the motorcycle includes one more"Capricious" element - candles. They can be covered with condensate, especially when the non-heated motor is repeatedly started. In general, the ignition system works the same as the car. Fuel supply is carried out by gravity.
The carburettor in general is similar to the car.During the war, it was even standard for American "Harley" and army jeeps - "Willis", which greatly facilitated the exploitation of equipment. If the motorcycle has stood for a long time, it is possible that a raid appears, which must be carefully removed. It is better to use copper wire to clean the nozzle.
It is interesting to install a motorcycle silencer.It is a mechanical acoustic filter such as a "pipe in a pipe" with partitions. In addition to the useful function, the muffler carries a decorative load - it shines brightly and is the pride of every biker, as well as other parts covered with chrome and nickel.
The front wheel is fixed in a plug madeof steel pipes, turning together with the rudder fixed on it. It is equipped with spring and hydraulic shock absorbers of telescopic type. The headlight and protective shield are located in the same place.
The device of the motorcycle has another specific feature - double brakes. For the rear wheel meets the pedal, pressed by the right foot, and for the front - the right handle on the steering wheel.
Transmission, installed on most models, allows you to include four speeds, and sometimes the rear gear.
Although the device of the motorcycle and did not undergorecent decades of fundamental change, but some technological advances still facilitate the harsh biker's life. Seals made of oil-resistant rubber, which is equipped with a chain, significantly extend its service life, but you should ensure that it is always lubricated, especially after driving through puddles.
