ok, i thought u were selling yrs away hence the sale. Ok, will look thru the garage thread.

 

 

Update

Right now, my bike doesnt hav the sputtering problem like spark plug prob but the story is like this.

Starting the bike is slightly difficult, hav to crank slightly longer and turn more throttle before the bike starts up. Now when the throttle is constant, the bike is ok but the moment it is on idle, the engine dies.

 

Now to start it up wld require me to switch off the ignition and leave the bike for a while before i can start it again, prob a min or 2. I think itz the battery so I will hav to take a look at that.

 

2nd problem is the engine sounds rough when at low rpms. sounds like something is funny so i wld probable hav to compare wif some of u guys the next time round.

 

Itz guan hoe here I come but no $$ at the moment.

Could b ur batt weak or stator motor carbon brush goin to finish. Is the cranking power or not..??when is ur last servicing..??could be ur plug or carburettor.But sometime ur tank could be water inside it.my bandit kena b4.diff to start and sometime start already miss fire!!! :goodluck:

U try loh, n let us know. hehehe

 

If recomended by the manual, I dun think should have any problem.

But I suggest u read up on that plug, is it suitable for our climate n your style of riding?

 

I know some plugs are for long distance riding use, and some are made for different kind of riding style.

 

Good luck.

Good luck.

The shop man tell me to get the "cooler"(low number) one if i go long distance riding often. Get the "hotter"(higher number) one if i want easy start in the morning. Chances is i will stick to the model stated by the manual la. Prefer stock things.

 

Actually, i did read something in the spark plugs webbie until dizzy only understand less than 25% of their story haha. U got a more simple language webbie to recomend?

 

And no one actually tried the Denso plugs before? Denso plugs cost $3.50 while NGK cost $7 leh.... double man...Denso plugs according to the Suzuki Parts dealer (KS something tht shop name) are from China so cheaper. AMS(parts dealer for yamaha n piaggio) is selling the Denso plugs for $3.50 ...

 

how how? anyone tested the denso plugs?

[chee_teck]

BTW one of the websites tht compare spark plugs put:

Nippon Denso U24ETR = NGK CR8EK

$3.50 vs $7

 

BTW if u guys wana get Suzuki Original Part DIY there is this shop KS dunno wht..along Jalan Besar.

Original plug cap : $20

CR8EK spack plug: $7

Oil Filter: $13 (cant remember exactly amount but confirm more than $10)

 

its a hiddne shop on the right handside few shops away from this shop that sell SPYKE apparels... not too sure the address i gotten from the shoplist correct or not

The material n colour of the plugs is alittle bit different. Go get one and compare it yurself den u'll know wat I mean. I used the LAB ones as backup when I go touring.   Anyway, I dun need to change plugs tat often. Occasionally, I belif that 'Cheap things not good, Good things not cheap'. So, I dun save on things that has to do directly with the engine.   I dun wan to try my luck wif a 10 yr old bike. U can try n let us know.

That 'KS dunno wht..along Jalan Besar' selling oil filter selling at $13, and u still recomend ppl to go there n get chop ah?

Wat are u thinking man?

Like i cant remember tht my dear.... why cant u take the possibility tht wht GH has maybe different from wht KS haf n thus difference in pricing?

[steng_z]

And i am giving the price from KS Motor for others to compare & make their own wise decision. [/b]     Originally posted by chee_teck@Mar 3 2004, 12:11 PM PLus they does not do bikes and is the importer of Genuine Suzuki Parts, solely selling parts to bike shops. Unless GH had another lubang of getting the original oil filter at a better price than the distributor, otherwise i would still get from KS and compare the difference with the HKL supposedly original oil filter.   Obviously u still do not know who are Guan Hoe, and what they do. I wonder what does the word 'SUZUKI AGENT' means to u.... hiaz...... :nono:

I'm not gay,although someone says I'm in a secret society , but I'm deifnately not gay.

Yes, of coz there is a possibility of KS having a differnt thing that GH. Just like LAB have diff CR8EK.

But, imagine this, LAB selling is CR8EK(got colour n material difference) more expensive than GH.

Yah.... and whts the meaning of Suzuki Genuine Parts Dealer meant to u again? And how u know of diff material? tested inur company lab isit?

 

 

And pls dun bring in ur personal conflicts into this BikeBytes section. U guys wana bark, bark elsewhere. dun flood this thread just as u guys had done in the GSX thread pls...

[/b] Nope, I dun have a test lab, but by visual inspection, one can tell. If I can remember, I learn to use 'visual inspection' as supporting evidence to certain conclusion during chemisty lessons when I was in secondary school.   For example: when u see aluminium and iron, both are more or less silver in colour, it won't be too difficult to tell the difference, although one may not know which is aluminium or iron(unless told about it), but can deifnately tell the difference in texture of the material even though both have the same colour.

apparently u are RIP off again... wat's this talk about GH not being a Suzuki agent... are u saying i'm a idiot like others who go around buying original stuff at a higher price than every one else can get??? I bet u haf yet to hear of the first case of chiong spark plugs... (Ask Me or IL4 and we'll tell u more... ) personal conflict?? wat personal conflict?? since we're labelled as groupies and SS, we'll disband our group and look at those who pointed a finger at us point 4 fingers back to themselves... we'll look at how they accuse us of being groupies and they themselves take part in threads filled wif groupies and how they embark to set up or support yet another biggest group coming up... Touring group...

 

NOW this is wat i would say DOUBLE standard...
