Sound Different and Smoothness

Aiyah...not "ABC" product lah...like that S4 also "DEF" liao!...buy one and use it lah..then you know mah ..don't use sure don't know and cannot recommend mah. I used for so long and still do..that's why I share it here lor.

 

The product has been so long on the market you dunno mei..look see look see you know more more ..try la

the prob is i dunno wat is it n i wun use it when i dunno wat is it. even wanna try oso must know wat is that ABC product rite? wat does it do, pros n cons n so on.

 

Hi, i have actually check my headers n pipe plus the linkage, there are highly no signs of leaking... unless is those super small holes.

 

As for my idling, its 1.45k - 1.5k rpm man! if i set lower, when i clutch in when riding, it will stall. ??

if idling low, throttle abit more so that the engine wun die down.

Alamak..like that..die liao lah. Okay..don't Kar_Cheow you lah..I wait for you to write to them and asked la..and you tell me inside got sesame oil and corn oil or not or what lah..while I keep using it and my engine siok siok

 

 

if idling low, throttle abit more so that the engine wun die down.

 

Cannot lah like that, then everytime must up throttle..a bit a bit after six months..wrist also got sound how ? Think hard and give him a permernant solution mah

[skateboy]

unlikely to ask. anyway, u can b a happy user dun mean i use already is a happy user. a product is subjective towards individual.

 

idling low, or clutch freeplay too near, all need to throttle abit else engine will die off. wanna have a permanent solution, its up to the TS already. some ppl can live with the prob some ppl cannot.

[Iwanmebike]

I know how to solve ur low idling problem... Install auto-fast idle wahahaha... sorry just kidding. Eh carb bike is like that 1 lah. warm up already should be fine...

[ztaik]

haha.. thanks thanks..

i set to 1.5k rpm for the moment before i going for servicing during the weekends. work work...

ya, i believe products liking are subjective. well, still must recognise Ah Pek efforts for giving suggestions and products infomation. UPZ !!

[Ah Pek]

Heh Ztalk...if your problem still exist..just pm me coffee and I believe it can be rectify over a coffee table...LOL! Have to look, feel and study the condition of your bike be anything else can be done.

 

Sometime..you go mech..do so many things..you still would know what is the actual caused. Anyway..you right, get the bsaic done first (servicing) and see what comes.

[ztaik]

haha yeah... coffee on me! lai lai lai!

 

ya i agree, i wanna know the problem and learn more instead of always going to a mechanic wheneva theres a prob. may learn to do some DIY too, maybe can learn from U GUYS. =]

 

btw, u still doing ya super bright bulbs on meter for people?

[skateboy]

go shop, ask them wat is the prob. learn from them. u pay not just to get the bike fixed, u oso learn from them if possible. to DIY, must know the basics 1st.then it will come naturally. no need to learn from anyone.

...LOL!...tonite is Xkissx turn and tomorrow is Hondaman turn..just let me know if you want to improve on yours

[biting_point]

troubleshooting always starts from the easiest to the hardest to the impossible. i'm very surprised how come the liquid engineering comes into picture. sound different n smoothness can b caused by very thick oil or dirty oil, plugs over use n due for change, poor air quality or low air flow due to air filter dirty, inaccurate firing due to irregular air flow or dirty fuel. recommand to service altogether to get optimum result.

 

adding X-1R, personally i dun recommand. reason is simple. 1st, the main problem is not being diagnosed n rectified. u do not wan any other problem surfacing n add on the the problem on top of the current situation. X1-R is another ABC product to me. i'll not add something unknown to me to the vehicle.

 

ultimately its up to individual. wat i say may not sound logical to some ppl though.

 

if a liquid product can solve bike problems, why we need mechanics..?

I would love to DIY on my bike to know it better, but some things are better to consult the SMEs..

 

in the current market there's so much additives, gadgets and products made to improve our rides.. if it's good, why doesnt manufacturer like Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, etc use them in the first place??

Strong Eagle, where are you??

 

users are just using the butt dyno to justify the difference..

 

haha yeah... coffee on me! lai lai lai!

in fact, in US, some DIYed on their bike since the day they bought it.. they had the bike delivered in crate to their doorstep.. rarely they'll go to any bike shop to change EO, etc..

most will import aftermarket parts and change themselves at home garage..

 

the thing is, do you have the knowledge and the tools needed??

if you are dying to know what's the problem of your bike, a trustworthy mechanic is your best bet..

to rectify a problem of bike/car, the bike/car gonna be look/listen/feel, no one can diagnose the problem of the internet.. not even a medical consultant..!

IMHO, any problems to the internals, get it done asap.. you dun wan your engine to fail you..

 

just my 2cents..

Do drop over for coffee. I feel your problem is minor and can be rectify but preferably by looking up on your ride. Just pm me anytime and we can have a bunch of ppl here who can help out

Hi, i have actually check my headers n pipe plus the linkage, there are highly no signs of leaking... unless is those super small holes.

 

As for my idling, its 1.45k - 1.5k rpm man! if i set lower, when i clutch in when riding, it will stall. ??

 

even 1.2k rpm ur bike also wont stall...as u changed to an aftermarket exhaust...the air is more free flowing so below 1k rpm ur bike will stall.

 

i don know how to explain but i got experience before.

[FunkyChicken]

Recently, i felt that my vtec3 have been giving me a some sort different sound from engine n exhaust. felt that the sound became 'rougher' and like got air leaking. Moreover, its fitted with yoshi firespec endcan. It shouldnt sound like that as the 'real yoshi sound' is not heard.

 

the sound should be louder and rougher by right even if u fit a slip on. engine noise care to define more?? if u said ai leakage, by right when u took out the endcan, u need to replace the gasket, less then $10 at FJT.

 

Also, while cruising the poor exhaust n engine became more obvious and its not as smooth as usual.

 

ur cruising problem is likely ur carb butterfly setting not equal causing the air fuel ratio not right. suprisingly when i fitted my slip on yoshi first batch, the 4 carbs tuning went off, the mech actually tune my carbs after fixing the slip on.

 

One more thing, is my idiling rpm at bout ~1.4krpm normal ? seems a bit high but when i tune to 1k. it will EASILY die off.

 

less restricted endcan has better air flow causing the idle to increase slightly and the mech set to 1k but when i rode it, the engine die off upon blipping. just increased the small screw below ur carbs and can be access by hand.

 

hope u guys can understand my abv statement hehe..

 

PLEASE HELP fellow bros..

 

 

it happens after u fixed ur yoshi am i rite?? then the suggestion above applies, next would be your normal maintenance...sparkplug, air filter, engine oil...etc.

[deviLLian]

wonder if i can open vtec when i'm stil running in at 1100+km..? never open b4 coz scared if too early use vtec den might harm my new bike. BUT some pple say if never use den might harm jamming d valves.. hehehe.. confused liao

[FunkyChicken]

so far during my vtec ownership, ive had no probs wif the vtec, but few mechs did told me you need to utilise the vtec to prevent and malfunction.

[ztaik]

it happens after u fixed ur yoshi am i rite?? then the suggestion above applies, next would be your normal maintenance...sparkplug, air filter, engine oil...etc.

 

No, i have already fitted the yoshi end can long ago, the problem i mentioned only happen recently.

 

 

As for idling, surprisily the engine DID STALL while even im crusing when i clutch in when the setting is 1.2k rpm.

 

TODAY, WORST STILL. IDILING AT 1.6k RPM, CRUSING but i applied a small amt of break and when i clutch in, engine die!!?? omg, why ?

[skateboy]

idling is the revolution with throttle closed fully. when bike is cruising, rpm goes up when u throttle.

 

anyway, asking why here wun solve the prob. best recommandation is to go a shop n diagnose the prob. alternatively, u can settle this using liquid engineering.

high chance our carb is dirty..

yes, you are right.. everyday ask here.. why not just go down to a bike shop to solve the problems, since it's bothering so much???

let the mech diagnose no need to pay a single cent as long as they didn't do anything to the bike. i dunno wats stopping the TS.

[ztaik]

yup i know as i mentioned, of cos i will see a mech on this sat. was too busy with work and am really tied down. thanks for the wonderful info !!

[ztaik]

went to change the EO today but the mec said that there isnt ant problem, but suggest that wrapping fibre to my yoshi firespec endcan can solve the problem ?

[skateboy]

is the prob rectified? if no, then u might wanna get a 2nd opinion at other shops.

[ztaik]

no, the problem is still there. the exhaust sound still sound diff. i check the spark plugs too, still good. i have never wrap the pipe with the firbre wrapping before..

[skateboy]

advisable to visit other shop for 2nd opinion. shop A cannot diagnose dun mean shop B cannot.

What was the condition of your bike before the idling problem occur?

If all along your bike was OK, and your problem gradually came, ie reset idle to 1.3k, after a while set to 1.5k then 1.8k.. etc etc.., then I think you should just go for a full service for the carburetor. Get your mechanic to check that there's no leakages in the intake system. Don't think that the exhaust system should be a problem. However, I have come across a leaky exhaust (small leak) that messed up the idling of engine.

 

Of course if your bike was all along 'unwell' and now the problem got worse, then I would suggest you change back to the original exhaust first and then troubleshoot again.
