'Half' Full System is more correct. In another words, slip on muffler with only half the downppe, without header. Right guys? ;-)

Yes, half system. Don't be conned and pay full system cause it will never come in full. I learnt a lesson, didn't I? hehehee

Ya man, that experience totally sucked! But sort of a "I told ya so" right SpecC?

Cheers

wah new place for us?
hm... :confused:

so theres no "full" system but half, so $580 for the carbonfibre muffer is the marketprice?

so how's everybody herreee???

my bike has been giving me real problem these weeks. its been three weeks since i hadn't rode on my gilera dna. initially the problem lies with the battery when it wouldn't start. after changing of batteries, the same problem of not starting comes up again.

and now mechanic is "accusing" of either a fault in the starter motor, starter relay or the starter fuse. whichever is right. i am in no position to know what is wrong with the bike, and in this vulnerable state i might be conned far to many times with shops.

so guys, i'll type down whats the problem lies with and hope u guys analyse it, so i could go straight to the mechanic and told them what to change and what not.

recently changed.
spark plug, engine oil and battery.

fault condition.
cannot start. got a clicking sound near the battery when ignition is being started. when it finally starts and able to go a long distance, it can't start back when the ignition is off-ed. mechanic has told me it has to do with the motor, relay, fuse ect. one even went to the extent of engine problem and piston overhaul. while another said about gasket, oil seal, water pump and coolant problem.

so what about your says. need advice man. i miss my dna!

Charging problem. The battery weak. So will 'tick' 'tick' when you try to start it. To confirm, take the volt reading of the batt and/or see the headlight (usually dim or non-lited when you switch on the igntion). If you're lucky, if you manage to get it started, the bike will perform as per normal. But as there is a charging prob, the batt fail to charge up, thus, when you off it, it woint start due to the totally flat batt.

Usually, the first and most common culprit is that the batt is spoilt. But if you confirm the batt is new/ fine, then the next most likely culprit is the charging system. Something wrong along that line. Go check it by a good mech. Piaggio is a good place to turn to (although they usually will ask you go elsewhere instead).

cheers and goodluck.

is it the charging system? because for the batt, i can say the mechanic took out a new batt from the store. straight from the box. and also the light indicator on the battery turns on when i rev the bike when it runs. the last time i ran the bike was last sat afternoon. and since then, everyday i came home from school i was hoping i could strike lucky so i could start the bike and ride it somewhere far such as to kallang. having a towtruck is a waste of money (to me). anyways thanks.

get a friend to come by and jump start the bike then!

Cheers

it is accesible but a little difficult, ma-fan lah :cheeky:

Oh my goodness, now that u mention~! How long has it been since i change gear oil?! Like never!! How long do u need to travel before changing gear oil? I only changed spark plug, engine oil and oil filter only!!

It is not gear oil, it is the rear hub oil, honestly, don't really need to change it so often, maybe once a year if you are kiasu?

Cheers

ive been riding dna for only 4 months. bought it frm ASPhoon. they suppose to full service upon purchased.. but ****.. 2 days later i checked engine oil, was freakin black. the rear hub oil was good. clear. but now.. its getting puffy. like brownish white. hmmm ma fan to take it out ya.

Ya, easily mistaken. That's why I mentioned he'll first have to make sure the batt is good/faulty via the use of a volt-meter.

hmmmmmmmmmm dying which shop u sent ur bike to???
it was some daelim shop near my house. at first as i thought it was the battery problem, i pushed my bike down there because i was certain they could change it without any problems. but after the battery changed and after a tour to AUNTIE shop and LAB Racing INC, my bike just wouldn't start bak after each destination. that was when i decided to come back to the initial shop to ask them to check whether there was any faults with the battery wiring or a weak battery. but after doing checks, they assumed what i typed before. now my bike is "safely" back to PSC. and a change of waterpump would cost me ard $150, a change of coil would be ard $250 and more and more and more to come. aaaaaaaargh.

bro, for the dna try not to go to any bike shops, go to those that specialised in auto scoot.

the kallang area is a safe bet.

other shops would do a lot of guessing....agak-agak only
but no worries after being warded at psc your bike will be out, healthy and trouble free.:smile: :smile:

pocket hurt a bit lah:cheeky: :cheeky:

yeah, that was the exact thing the PSC guy told me about not to go to anyhow shop. but the problem before was just to get my batt changed. and since any bike shop could do that. i just pushed to one shop near mine. i couldnt possibly send to tow to kalland isnt it. haha. but yeah, i knew they wouldn't know any abt z bike. thats why after checking abt the faults i told them i'd send to other shop. thats when i made a decision to send to PSC. :cry:

wah stroker what did u sell off this time.

:confused:

Thank you for all the support guys........ I cannot say yet, because have not started any thing yet... Sorry.....

But i like some of the suggestion given. espacially the side car bit...ha..ha... that will be the bomb.... can even pillion my baby...ha..ha....idea..

As for dan's list , ha..ha....Hot pillion with dual airbag system is f***ing good idea...

how much in total would it all add up to bro:confused:

He said slightly more then $200. Sounds like a fair deal if they changed the entire water pump.

Cheers.

Rest assured i will ask them to pay u royalty on that :cheer:

any body who is interested please contact daniel directly
if demand is overwhelming we may even conduct classes, for a small fee of course :thumb:

Not bad leh.. Why faint?? CPR! Dan, where're you??

Haha, anyway, just change the US of A flag to Singapore's, voila, here's your Uniquely Singapore Design!

The singapore flag is the last thing I want anywhere near my rides. Not really proud to fly the flag, I don't mind a Union Jack though.

Cheers

I LOVE MY GILERA DNA.

anyone knows how to open the belt section down there (i don't know what is it being called) the one which is below the airbox, gray in colour. can i open it manually or do i need the help of a mechanic? because, i'm planning to spray that part into some other colour. preferably an Italy Flag. I saw someone did it on the Runner tho, and that spurs me to do the same.

any idea's bros?

It is held on by about 14 bolts, after that you need an impact wrench to remove a nut under the plastic cover. If you have the tools, it is easy, if not, too bad, gotta get an impact wrench.

Cheers

Hi dude, with my very limited experience on DNAs, I reckon the most likely culprit is some cracked fuel hoses or some sort of leakages. The bike shouldn't consume this much petrol if its in a stock condition. It almost definitely is some small minute leaks somewhere amongst its complicated 'network' of fuel delivery hoses. Or possibly some carb fitting gotten loose over time/ vibrations.. Thus causing leakages of your fuel mixture..

At the 'peak' of playing around with my bike, I 'only' manage to do something like 14km/l. :sweat: . And its really no mean feat achieving these kind of FC on a DNA! ha ha. Haven't seen anyone elses doing these kind of FC yet. :sweat:

And when I finally got everything sorted out, its running around 18-19km/l. And I'm refering to running Big Bore, Big Carbs, heavy clutch springs, de-baffled pipe (all these constitutes higher FCs) etc..

As for rubberss... The Michelin Gold Standards had been tried and tested. Very good. Sticky and long lasting. While the Maxxis gummys that Spider is running looks and handles cool too. Not much choices around cos of the tyres size.

So anyway, do I get a discount at your shop for answering the above questions? :cheeky: :cheeky:

When was the last time you cleaned or changed your air filter? That might be your culprit.

Cheers

Was told by the mech that might be wrong with the water pump, have gotten it changed and now testing if the FC is still so bad.

The only thing change on my bike is the exhaust to GPR one.

How much would the mention rubbers cost roughly

My shop? I think u might have mistaken me for the othe N-J-H doing airbrush:confused: :confused:

Oops.. *blush** Wrong person. Cos the N_J_H owner also rides a DNA. Anyway, I dunno what's the relationship between the coolant pump and FC leh?? Anyway, my guess still goes to leakages somewhere.

GPR pipe wont affect yr FC this much. Get yr bike checked. Before the prob escalates.

Michelin Gold Standards costs around $170 - $190 per pair.

Cheers.

It's like he's hobby lolz, i only need to provide the sandpaper drill thingy. From what he say, maybe add 1 or 2cc liao :cheeky:
Whahaha first time i heard anyone port and polish their block to get an additional 1-2 HP. :help:

He might lose a bit of compression from doing something like that. Just get a 20VXR block! Hahaha, solves everything! :cheer:

Please! There is only one way to settle this, a 25 lamp post drag race, between a runner and Gainax's "BOOSTED" DNA. All we need is a white can of spray paint, to draw a start and finish line. Second, stroker needs to be there blasting the worst song in human existance, TeriYUCKi boys-Little tokyo.

Cheers

Gainax if you need to cool down, I recommend some nice Irish music to you, nothing is more relaxing then a nice Irish girl singing to you. Here are the following...

1) Mary Black - One of the best Irish singers
2) The Corrs - Nice Irish band
3) Charlotte Church - Voice of an angel but sadly she is Welsh
4) Daniel Burgess - Greatest hits of 2006 compilation album include

*I just wanna go home (but still stuck in sillypore)
*Sweet Home Ireland
*Purple lite
*99 bottles of beer on the wall
*Call me when you are horny - D.B and Amy lee feat
*Why the FCUK did I sign on - Slow march score with SAF music and drama mama company
*Nessum Dorma - Orchestra courtesy of SSO
*You are the Drama queen - D.B and Abba guest appearance
*Don'cha wish (you were angmoh just like me) - D.B and the ****** cat dolls

For 3 easy payments of $39.99. You get my 21 cd compilation, and my personal favorite bumper sticker, "Busty chicks only, no flatties"

Cheers

P.S. This is a piece of humourous material, I will not be held responsible for any civil law suits, sexual harrassment charges, homeland security act issues, car accidents, or generally any trouble from gal designed like runways, I had enough of that from my previous and final visit to clubbing.

Good morning everybody, it is a beautiful monday morning.

Gainax, you cooled down already? :sweat:

Cheers

morning, im fine. Thxs :cheeky:

Can't wait for my fairings to be ready in 9days time. Sent for respray at Replica Spray Painting @ Kallang Ave. 1 colour $250. Heard they do RedBull for $450, cheap? maybe Spidey can go check it out?

As for mines, it sure is cheaper compare to a certain shop that advertise in here. they quote me $450 for 1 colour, and I don't even get to see any colour code. :mad:

That price is about right, Michelle paid the same amount for her Gilera DNA paint job, remember to write down the exact colour code cause should you need to respray a piece of fairing you will know exactly what to look for!

yeah. after extensive cum intensive care unit in PSC, bike has still been the same. after i&#39;ve paid all those sum to them. and now they are blaming on the shop that did the battery change for me. cos, currently the bike is running on shinco 12/9 battery whereas the ideal battery size for DNA is 12/12. and the mechanic did say using a Usawa battery would be good. (??)

and i seek-ed Mr. Desmond of WinJing advice on the problem, and he said about the difference in ampere can make a difference of starting the bike.

and what about u guys saying about t loosen up some wires near the air-box or something like that. can elaborate further? the problem for me is that, i don&#39;t really know what is the main problem on the bike. that makes it difficult for me to explain to anyone wat is the prob.

PSC went to the extent of changing my water pump and coolant tank (which is leaking) and my fuel filter for me. and that doesn&#39;t actually makes the situation better. after a trip out from PSC to Kelantan Lane, bike died on me immediately when I off the ignition.

Couldn&#39;t be the rectifier or the magnetic coil too right? because when i checked the strength of the battery it was still running a strong 12 watt/volt (whatever). which means, the battery could be recharged when running.

any trouble shooting tips guys? had enough patience on this man. and so i put my trust on further old-bird down here.

If your batterie looks fully charged but still dies on you; one would asume that charging is okey. But still could be electrical broblem as well as fuel. First still asuming electrical I would check coil and spark plug. Now inspect the coil lead very carefully they do crack and make sure it is screwed in on the spark plug side and very hard to check but very inportant to check the two wires coming to the coil they do get bit loose and rusty and couses instant stalls when you are riding. That should cover your electrical problems if it is a fuel problem I had to say one inspect the fuel line secure and not leaking air make sure air box not taking extra air from somewhere and inspect inlet manifold carefully they do get cracked and split if the carby not pushed in fully and couses engine taking too much air. But my question is how does it start first becouse if bike starts good when it is cold but does not when is hot could be starter motor as vell; does it kick over and over till batterie dies on you or just click click noise if it is just clicks get a friend to help you and find where the clicks coming from if it is starter motor then thats the faulty one if it is coming from one of the relay units than that is your problem. I hope this might help rather then confusing even more. Please let me know you going with the process. Good luck and have safe ride.

the clicking sound rather came from the right side of the bike towards the back. somewhere near the battery but not the battery. i THINK it might be the rectifier.

and i&#39;d spent close to &#036;400, including new battery and the recent changes applied.

yes yes. go for it. project saving Dying. emuaahs emuahhs.

and the meeting place is KKFC? how to go there. now my bike couldn&#39;t even start. guh&#33;&#33;

i&#39;ll take 40 to get it done if no changing of parts is required. even go to your place to rectify it... haha

Sounds like starter relay which is located right hand side seat cowling. When starter relay gone it makes the clicking noise but won&#96;t pass it to starter motor so engine is not going to turn over. I did not have that problem on my DNA but had on my Mini Cooper after 12 AUS dollars wort part engine kicks over any time I wan&#96;t now. Hopefully that is your problem if not must be the starter motor(did you say that you changed the starter motor?)

ya, i too believe it is the starter motor circuit if u are not able to start the bike,

could be either the ,1 relay as mention[should not cost u much]

2 carbon brush to starter motor worn out
which happened to me [&#036;90]

3 starter motor [&#036;200-&#036;300 i think]

Couldn&#39;t be the rectifier or the magnetic coil too right? because when i checked the strength of the battery it was still running a strong 12 watt/volt (whatever). which means, the battery could be recharged when running.

:help: :help: :help: :help:
hope DNAs dont mind, i drop a note...

i believe the bike should be charging above 12.6Volt.... My old bike was charging at 13.8... when idling is around 12.7 - 12.9..

better check your coil....

I have seen one rider with problem starting when the engine goes hot.... after much trouble shooting. Found that the coil (wires inside shorted), when cold, shrink abit... when hot the insulation gave way.

I think if yours is giving you problem even when engine is cold... then it could have been shorted already.

I have the service manual that shows how to check the coil is shorted or not, by measuring the impedance of the coil.... with a multi-meter... let me dig my old files...

something for u to understand about rs125s:smile:

hehe, yea i know about Aprilia being a problem bike. actually not a problem bike but a very high maintence bike. Afterall aprilia bikes are consider pure racing bikes yea?

Prior to me getting my DNA, I went to look at a 3 mths old rs125 06 that some1 is selling, 3mths....the bike cant even start and iddle without dying off. After seeing that it kinda puts me off already.

But still...its sure is 1 lean, mean, sexy machine :cheeky:

Here I am. The bike is nice in every aspects except the neon light, which I don&#39;t DIG.

&#036;6.9k is a tad high despite all the things he has done. Let me think about it.

This only happens when the bike is running too lean or too rich. If it is too lean, there is not enough fuel to keep the bike idling. Hence, having to use the choke everytime you need to start the bike.

At the same time, if it is too rich, you have too much fuel and not enough air to keep the combustion going. Hence, the bike dying off again. That&#39;s why you would have to throttle sometimes to start your bike. To let in more air.

So that&#39;s why I tune my own bike. I don&#39;t trust majority of the mechs in Singapore. Anyways, to actually help you get a almost close to perfect tuning. There are these glass spark plugs you can use to tell if you&#39;re running too lean, rich, or just nice. They&#39;re from Gunson&#39;s. 60 pounds for the whole tuning set I think. I&#39;m using it, and they&#39;re pretty cool.

=)

P.S. Do forgive me if I have any errors in my technical explanation. I&#39;m trying to relate some of my other technical experiences with my bike. =p
