The deal to sell my bike blew again, bike shop don't want to take buyer's bike if he is not buying new bike from them. Guess my bandit is cursed or what.

Xiao_Di have you change your coolant on your RVF before?? Or you know how to 'tia' fairing and 'Yiu Tang' ?? If not we can slowly 'tia' down your RVF bit by bit to find where is the reserve bottle and the coolant drain plug.

For most honda bikes, the drain screw is located at the water pump and it inscribe with a letter 'C' on it.

they qoute me $85 for fork svcing,$85 for cone berring and $20plus for wheel berring..how?

[S750WP]

I have check with a local electronic shop, the transistor on the CDI board is D1976 made by Hitachi and the direct replacement for D1976 is BU806. So I bought 2 at $2 ea and paid $10 buck to the shop which Datsun recommend to do the soldering at Sim Lim Tower as I want to test if it will work on the spot before spending another $3 for the electronic box.

 

Things I have change on the spare CDI board are

 

Capacitors

------------

47uF35v (85deg c) - 2pcs

10uF40v (105 deg c) - 2pcs

 

10uF25v (85deg c) - 1pc near the kokusan

 

Transistor

------------

BU806 - 2pcs

 

However when I installed this faulty spare CDI on the bike, it wont fire, while the one on my bike fires up in 1 click.

 

There is 1 more transistor on the board, I can't see what is the part number, I will check with the electronic shop again once I got it out.

Seems reasonable, the other time I got my own spares and fork oil bring to shop and pay for the workmanship and total out to $90.

Bandit400VV has a fuel gauge?? Not many here ride Bandit400VV here, fuel consumption should be different as there is variable valve on your bike which works like Honda Vtec.

 

For the fan, normally the sound is very faint humming sound, sometimes I dont even notice its on, not sure about Bandit400V though.

k thanks for yar feedback i located the fan...but a bit too late realised my radiator is leaking...haiz...not sure is due to the fan not working or wat ...but LAB mechanic said fan working...later going to collect bike hope everythings ok.

 

another thing i heard tht the fan only activates aft sometime meaning aft hitting a certain temperature...so roughly how long it takes to make the fan move??

or everybike there is alot of difference?

Whaaa...you dare to send your bike to Lim Ah Boy's mech?? They are very rough handling bike, last time ask them to change batt for my TZR125, they never check if all the screws are out then pull the fairing and break the tab, then they act blur say its already broken intially and use cable tie to secure back the fairing. From then onwards I never let Ah Boy's mech touch my bike again.

 

Fan not working got nothing to do with radiator leaks. Strat your bike and let it idle for 10-20mins, the fan should come on. If really want to confirm fan is working or not connect a switch to bypass the fan thermo switch and the fan should turn on.
