What are the Functions of Motorcycle Bearings?

Bearings are widely used in various machinery. It can be said that as long as it is a running machine, bearings are inseparable. Bearings are the key components of motorcycles. For all kinds of bearings, their role is very different. Today, in this blog, I will introduce the different functions of different motorcycle bearings.

Differences in Durability

First of all, the durability of various motorcycle bearings varies. Ball bearings are the most durable. Therefore, most of the crankshaft bearings, main and auxiliary shaft bearings, and front and rear wheel bearings of motorcycle engines use ball bearings, which have strong impact resistance and are convenient for gear oil lubrication. Even if there is a lack of oil lubrication for a short period, the ball motorcycle bearings will not wear excessively.

Different Impact Resistance

Secondly, the impact resistance of various motorcycle bearings is different. Bearings used in motorcycles must have strong impact resistance in some key parts. For example, the two sets of pressure bearings on the steering column of each motorcycle, the ball bearing is the most impact-resistant. When a motorcycle is driven on a bumpy road, the pressure bearing is the most easily damaged, and the ball bearing is the most effective.

In the motorcycle transmission system, ball motorcycle bearings are most durable, followed by needle roller bearings, and copper sleeves are the least durable. Some motorcycle maintenance workers replace the small crankshaft needle roller with a copper sleeve, mainly because of the good noise reduction effect of the copper sleeve.
