[Discussion] What's bugging you now?

[duo]

Bazinga:

 

A word used instead of saying:"fooled you!" after a prank. It first appeared in the series of "The Big Bang Theory" and is used by the character named Sheldon. It comes from the word "zing" which means to fool or rediculous someone. and just for a cool slang, the added the "ba" to it. And later the series added the "a" to it, and then it became "Bazinga".

Got it off google? Never trust everything you read. Just look at the word 'rediculous'. Thats not even correct.

You probably haven't raced 2T before, lovely racing bikes.

 

Especially tzm... Hehehe...

Hmm... What's bugging me now? My mechanic told me that my Y1 block is still usable with 1 small scratch while another mechanic says that it can't be used at all and have to order another one. So who can be trusted?

Its your bike so you make the call. Do you trust yourself?

I trust that its still usable. Because I'm selling it and the mechanic that said to order a new one has some history with me, I know how he works... Every single tzm that goes to his shop with problems, he will suggest a full overhaul... I also Kena full overhaul...

Nope, haven't got the chance so far. But i do know their reputation for being fantastic racing machines as i had been following MotoGP since 10years ago. When 4-stroke 500s were introduced to MotoGP then, the 2-strokes blew them away. Also seen some race modified 250cc and 500cc 2-strokes in Racewerkz before. Beautiful machines, really.

 

But since my bike is more for commuting usage, i guess 4 stroke will work well, and inline 4 is something i look forward to, rather than single cylinder. Thus thought of buying Super4 even though i like sports bike looks like CBR250.

Last time, my block had some small scratches and holes also. Mechanic called it pitting. But i no money change block then, so mech say pray everyday and continue using. 6 months later, the holes and scratch very slightly larger only, but since saved money le, so decided to change block for safety reason.

 

your decision.

I'm not using it, I'm selling it second hand. Only 1 scratch line. Not deep, maybe just 1 mm deep about the thickness of a fingernail... Lol...

If they know about bikes, they'll know that the scratch doesn't affect much on performance... It'll just increase fuel consumption by a small amount... Not much difference for transport bikes. But if they wanna use it for track, there's always the possibility of it jamming the piston... Brand new or second hand doesn't make any difference... Because if they're buying brand new, it will be a local set... Original parts are all left with second hand parts... They've stopped production for parts for the bike...

My cbr sold already... This Y1 block from my scrapped 2b bike... I asked my mechanic whether still usable or not, he said still usable, that's why I ask him to remove from my bike frame when they're scrapping... Those usable parts I take and sell as second hand, those not usable one I scrap with the bike lo...
