2. Reduced Back Pain Motorcycle riding can put significant strain on the lower back due to the position in which riders sit. Many bikers experience motorcycle back, a term used to describe back pain caused by the unnatural posture and vibrations from the bike.

4. Listen to Your Engine Pay attention to your vehicle’s sounds and performance. If anything feels off, don’t hesitate to get it checked.

The primary function of a V-belt in a motorcycle is to bridge the gap between the engine and the transmission. When the engine produces power, the V-belt carries that power to the rear wheel, providing the necessary torque for movement. This design not only enhances power transfer efficiency but also contributes to a smoother ride.

They are thicker and stronger than standard belts, making them suitable for applications involving heavy loads and prolonged use. These belts are commonly found in construction equipment, mining machinery, and other heavy-duty industrial applications.
