Gilera Fuoco 500 - 2009 /2010

[Chubb]

aiyah - that Sunday we did not check the brake-pads! But both Chubb and my Fuoco front braking bike-power suck-big-time! William's f/brake power is - like sports bike!

 

Chubb - did you get THN to check your f/brake bite-power problem?

 

they say might be a faulty brake pump..

front brake was bleed and top up.. stil feels e same

may drop by ADH 1 day next week..

hmm.. so far no sign of battery leak for me, i also got no indicator to monitor so i will not know how much voltage i have..

could it be bcoz of all ur 'gadgets'?

I definitely need to go ADH!!

This evening while taking a bend across traffic light junction, the engine stalled by itself again! and I did a quick "I.A." and got it moving.

 

Will also get them to trouble shoot the front brakes. If both problems are indeed manufacturer's fault, it should be replaced FOC>

Coz weather's colder?

 

How about try parking your bike on wheels instead of main-stand to see if it is leaking to earth?

Here's something that I found in the manual:

 

Look for any leakage

1) Access the battery by removing its cover under the saddle.

2) Check that the battery does not show signs of losing fluid before checking the output voltage.

3) Turn the ignition key to position OFF, connect the terminals of the tester between the negative pole

(-) of the battery and the black cable and only then disconnect the black cable from the negative pole

(-) of the battery.

4) With ignition key still at OFF, the reading detected by the ammeter must be ≤ 0.5 mA.

My boss has the 250 and is thinking of upgrading to the 500 very soon.

There have been no tailgaters ever since the camera was mounted onto the bike. But it still captured some interesting moments like the one below.

GY1914S, give SHA549J a break. Don't squeeze at the last minute in the turn. There are plenty of routes that leads to the same destination.

SJH5251Z, although we were all stuck in the jam, I advise you to still maintain some distance between our vehicles. Many possibilities of accidents can happen if you come too close behind. For example,

(1) I were to brake suddenly shortly after moving off if I was inconfident of clearing to the main road with some vehicles coming.

(2) It was raining and the surface was wet. If I were to skid when I brake suddenly having a change of mind shortly after moving off if I was inconfident of clearing to the main road when I see some vehicles coming.

(3) You misjudged the distance and hit me from the back while inching forward.

(4) You were to misjudge my moving off momentum.

 

Plenty of them. I always give some space for the vehicle in front when I drive. The bigger the mass the greater the distance. Just in case the unpredictable were to happen. And by the way, I also have a camera in my car.
