Raptor, i seriously would think that u might consider purchasing a set of race fairings for ur track days.

Do take care of your Repsol paintwork as once the Repsol RCV wanna have a change of paintwork in their RCV, your paintwork might become a collectors item man.

Although it may be donkey years later.

With the number of auto paint shops around... nothing is ever original in Singapore.

 

They have the technology and skill to copy anything to a point it becomes an original genuine imitation of the original.

 

Anyway... I could ask Mike's brother's girlfriend to help me out. Her company makes decals..all they need is the font size or at least a photo of the original.

 

If I remember correctly... Dawn Tan's shop MotorX does decals right??

 

PS - who is FJT?? Freaking Jurong Town??

Outing @ Pitstop.

 

For those who haven been to pitstop before, here's your chance.

 

Data: 15th April 2005

Time: 8pm

Meeting place: Carpark opposite cineleisure, beside california fitness centre. Then we will proceed to pitstop.

 

Participants:

 

1) Ken - 97649600

2) Jerry7007 - 91169520 (check out my new toy)

3) Tashi - hitting JB after that, will bring the STP Complete Fuel Cleaner (Meet @ PitStop)

 

It's been a long time since we organized a proper outing.

When we refer to engine or cylinder break in, we are talking about the physical mating of the engine's piston rings to it's corresponding cylinder wall. That is, we want to physically wear the new piston rings into the cylinder wall until a compatible seal between the two is achieved.

 

Proper engine break in will produce an engine that achieves maximum power output with the least amount of oil consumption due to the fact that the piston rings have seated properly to the cylinder wall. When the piston rings are broken in or seated, they do not allow combustion gases to escape the combustion chamber past the piston rings into the crankcase section of the engine. This lack of "blow-by" keeps your engine running cleaner and cooler by preventing hot combustion gases and by-products from entering the crankcase section of the engine. Excessive "blow-by" will cause the crankcase section of the engine to become pressurized and contaminated with combustion gases, which in turn will force normal oil vapors out of the engine's breather, causing the engine to consume excessive amounts of oil. In addition to sealing combustion gases in the combustion chamber, piston rings must also manage the amount of oil present on the cylinder walls for lubrication. If the rings do not seat properly, they cannot perform this function and will allow excessive amounts of oil to accumulate on the cylinder wall surfaces. This oil is burned each and every time the cylinder fires. The burning of this oil, coupled with "blow-by" induced engine breathing, are reasons that an engine that hasn't been broken in will consume more than its share of oil.

 

When a cylinder is overhauled or repaired the surface of it's walls are honed with abrasive stones to produce a rough surface that will help wear the piston rings in. This roughing up of the surface is known as "cross-hatching". A cylinder wall that has been properly "cross hatched" has a series of minute peaks and valleys cut into its surface. The face or portion of the piston ring that interfaces with the cross hatched cylinder wall is tapered to allow only a small portion of the ring to contact the honed cylinder wall. When the engine is operated, the tapered portion of the face of the piston ring rubs against the coarse surface of the cylinder wall causing wear on both objects. At the point where the top of the peaks produced by the honing operation become smooth and the tapered portion of the piston ring wears flat break in has occurred.

 

When the engine is operating, a force known as Break Mean Effective Pressure or B.M.E.P is generated within the combustion chamber. B.M.E.P. is the resultant force produced from the controlled burning of the fuel air mixture that the engine runs on. The higher the power setting the engine is running at, the higher the B.M.E.P. is and conversely as the power setting is lowered the B.M.E.P. becomes less.

 

B.M.E.P is an important part of the break in process. When the engine is running, B.M.E.P. is present in the cylinder behind the piston rings and it's force pushes the piston ring outward against the coarse honed cylinder wall. The higher the B.M.E.P, the harder the piston ring is pushed against the wall. The surface temperature at the piston ring face and cylinder wall interface will be greater with high B.M.E.P. than with low B.M.E.P. This is because we are pushing the ring harder against the rough cylinder wall surface causing high amounts of friction and thus heat. The primary deterrent of break in is this heat. Allowing to much heat to build up at the ring to cylinder wall interface will cause the lubricating oil that is present to break down and glaze the cylinder wall surface. This glaze will prevent any further seating of the piston rings. If glazing is allowed to happen break in will never occur. We must achieve a happy medium where we are pushing on the ring hard enough to wear it in but not hard enough to generate enough heat to cause glazing. If glazing should occur, the only remedy is to remove the effected cylinder, re-hone it and replace the piston rings and start the whole process over again.

Tashi, Chilly, Ken and CBR1000RR brothers,

I will be up at Sepang with my bro-in-law seeing the track from the eyes of Rossi and company on Saturday and Sunday. Seeing the track from the point of view... not at their speed though.

 

I have changed to a new set of Diaoblo Corsas...need to scrub off the chicken strips. Yesterday I went to Motoworld to swop out the tyres and ended spending $1500 for a full suit (Spidi R2). Kormine full body inner suit $80. Luckily my bro-in-law is giving me a back protector in exchange for my worn DCs to fit on his bike that he is going to trade in for the K5.

 

I have now come to the conclusion it is extremely dangerous to visit bike accessory shops right after pay day. :faint:

 

Abang chilly, ada lah orang kata, air tenang sangat dalam... tapi betul betul sekarang nampak nya aku sudah jadi gila. Macam aku sudah jadi mengamok.

Jauhkan lah anda daripada madat ini orang panggil track - senang masuk, susah nak keluar. Lagi teruk daripada tangkap kahwin. Kesiahan lah aku.

Pakcik Raptor, when awak want keluar, I boleh recommend awak therapy sessions. Awak next pay hari, mari cari I. We pergi buy PS2.

 

Malam ini, you datang Pitstop or not?

 

Malam ini ada mina biker mau pergi JP makan maggi mee goreng. Abang Chilly, jangan tiam tiam, naik moto let's rock!

Wow, confirmed?!?! Someone should be posting the article somewhere as soon as this hits the newstand.

 

I hope it's not a single seater. Looks like it won't be a sports tourer (read: no banana seat).

 

Probably an RC51 replacement. 5 more months and counting.

 

I hope they'll come out with a nice red color scheme. Thank you Abang Chilly.

Ok, the story doesnt read as well as I'd hoped, but here you go.

 

Honda's MotoGp replica - and 'big bang' engine - is just around the corner! And MCN has seen the top secret plans...

 

Honda's road going version of the RC211V MotoGP bike could be on the roads by the end of next year - and MCN has even seen the design drawing. The first solid evidence of its plans emerged last week when Honda published a patent application for the V5 road bike.

 

Hidden deep within the complex technical document in one key line: "A headlight is provided at an upper portion of the front cowl...! Headlights on a GP bike? No - this is the road version!

 

A Honda Insider told MCN: "Various versions of the V5 road bikes have been seen testing at secret tracks in Japan for the past couple of years. I've seen and heard them going around the track myself".

 

One of the designers is Yuzuru Ishikawa, the man behind the RCV's mass centralisation' design theme, which sees the heaviest parts of the bike clustered tightly together near its centre of gravity to optimise handling.

 

There are other hints in the patent document that its a road bike: it refers to metal seat supports and a fairing made of plastic. The RCV race bike has a self supporting carbon fibre seat unit and carbon bodywork.

 

Our source said: "Everyone within Honda knows there are plans for a V5 road bike in some way or another - it's just that at this stage no-one knows exactly what it's going to be.

 

"There are workshops at tracks in Japan with literally hundreds of new and prototype bikes are being kept. Some will make it to production, some wont".

Every organisation is like a tree full of monkeys.Ones at the top can only see monkeys below them and ones at the bottom see only a**holes above them.

Here's the rest of the article:

 

Why the Delay?

 

Honda already has the bikes - the question is when (or even if) these V5 machines will make it into production.

 

Honda itself is divided into two camps. One wants a mental version of the RCV race bike - packing a 200bhp+ motor. Yet the more conservative are horrified at the prospect of a 200bhp nutter bike. They want a more docile version, but rivals ask why, when they have a FireBlade?

 

MCN's Honda insider said: "The days of vanity bikes like the NR750 are long-gone, hardly any were sold and the full Honda back-up abd aftersales effort was needed".

 

"Global viability is what will make or break the V5 project. When Honda can make millions selling small capacity scooters in China, the importance of a massively complex, expensive and technologically advanced MotoGP replica doesn't seem as important".

 

"But as these bikes already exist, it's just a few more steps before they could exist as production bikes".

 

 

 

HOW THE 'BIG BANG' V5 WORKS

 

As well as revealing the existence of the road going RCV, our insider has told us the secrets of it's all conquering V5 engine.

 

MCN can reveal the mystery of how Honda has managed to make the 72' V5 run smoothly without using a heavy, power sapping balancer shaft. It is all in the crank layout and firing order.

 

The engine gives uneven power to maximise traction and give deep -throated, 'big-bang' sound.

 

The rear pair of pistons move up and down together, attached to the outside two of the front three pistons on common crankpins - so the outer front pair move together two.

 

The central front piston is seperate, on its own crankpin, and reaches the top of its stroke a few degrees after the other two front pistons.

 

Along with counterweights on the crankshaft web, this position helps to balance out the vibrating effect of the other four cylinders.

Hi guys, There's a set of Valtar Motors Racing Footrest (Black colour) who a guy bought for $580 from Sporting Motors for around 1 month.

But he intends to sell it away for $500 as he was hit by some cash flow problem.

Interested party can contact me.

 

I love my fireblade.

Dun force me to betray my love.

Hope that the RCV road replica is sold at extreme price so i can be faithful, pure and innocent guy.

Sure they wouldn't retail it at the pricing of fireblade rite.

If not, fireblade will sure to cease production(which is impossible) and i dun noe what will happen to other manufacturers.

Looks like Honda can produce one anytime they want.

 

Well, the SP2 is not stealing any sales from the Fireblade is it? Different genre ... well, not by a huge margin.

 

As the FireBlade matures, Honda will put in more HRC bits in it.
