haha. i was worried for your bike too man!

 

i cannot sleep last night!!! Btw what is your ride?

[yd72]

Bro. it's time for me to declare that I give up that CB200 project n I shifted my attention to my beloved CB160. Like I told Marco, some of us here trying to find time for our hobby and seriously ain't got enough time on my side. Furthermore, the HDB officer has been harassing me and the CB200 cos it's a awful sight for some car owners(thinking that it's an abandon bike)

 

Now it's best for me to focus on what I used to have. Work on it and make sure it's complete. Then start another new project. Btw, just stumble upon this link for CB160 if anyone keen on a small twin. Small twin with promising power-http://www.bonnevillevintagegp.com/raffle.html

 

 

So what happen to the cb200??

up for the outing!

[swirlacer]

hey marco, the suzuki GSX400FWS is back OTR!! but still got some odd behaviour leiz.

 

right now, whenever i start up the bike after an hour or so, the bike cannot remain at idle. however after a few minutes of warm up, the bike can idle properly. choke's disengaged.

also,when moving off from start, if i do not rev the bike up to ~4k rpm and release the clutch, the bike will move abit and die off. anyone experienced this kinda thing b4? mech told me that its because of

1. the clutch plates sticking together

2. the first gear's kinda wore out(something wrong with it la)

other gears work fine by the way.

 

note, my fuelcock is currently turned to prime(fuel keeps flowing) instead of on or res(this need the vacumn hose to work). i cant use the on or res because my fuel **** vacumn diaphragm is spoilt.(if i attach the vacumn hose(from the carb) and turn it to on or res, the carb will be flooded and become airlocked=cant start/run) Will this affect the bike in aniway since the vacumn hose is not in use?

 

ani idea on this? thanks.

Maybe there is not enough supply of petrol into carbs?? Is your bike timing, ok??

[Jali]

heyaa bro think the problems lies @ clutch plate ..

[swirlacer]

yd72>>>fuel gets into the carbs no prob. because i take out plugs check all pretty fouled up. too rich mixture.

Jali>>>yea man, i suppose changing clutch plates might help. but prob is i dunno which bike's clutch is compatible to mine~!haha....

[Throttle]

/Hope you guys had fun on the latest meet-up.

 

Been so busy with other things in life, got no time to ride at all.

 

My T bird is still up for grabs.....sad to say....

 

anyway, cheers to the vintage biking community, it's really in a class of its own.
