Ever met a s4 rider with cdi leaked till no more glue, and the bike still ran at 180kmh. It won't die and leave u stranded lah, it just ur bike will run funny (power loss, misfiring) so u can still ride home/ to a wkshop. As long ur bike still runs normally, u shldnt worry too much.

dafuq.. s4 @ 180kph??! intro him to me man

Of course I trust my skills. I ride alone cos I don't trust the competency of the driver next to me.

Motul is a good brand. I'm using Mobil one racing 4T 10w-40 with good result.

Do changing of engine oil help to smoother the gear shift? Is there anything we could do to smoother the rough "tak" sound when changing gear especially the first to second or third gear?

Can't seem to find the right answer from google. What is the fuel tank capacity for shadow 400? How many liters of fuel it can take at it max?

Well Copper plugs are good to identify running issues if you are running rich or lean.

300V is an ester based oil. A true Class 4 synthetic oil. Good if you ride your bike hard and/or plan to extend your oil change intervals.

I am currently using castrol power 1 10w40 from lab. Very happy with it.

I change my oil at 4000km

 

Do changing of engine oil help to smoother the gear shift? Is there anything we could do to smoother the rough "tak" sound when changing gear especially the first to second or third gear?

 

Yes of course.

Bikes shares 3 compartments of engine oil. Clutch, engine and gears.

Check if your clutch freeplay is correct.

At your switch there are two wires. When they touch and immediately let go, it togges between tripmeter and odometer. When they touch for very long in tripmeter page, it resets.

 

Get a switch that fits well in its slot. That whole rubber switch can be pulled out with a plier.

Nice jimmy. Any different between both bikes in term of riding?

The seat height of the Aero is much lower than the ACE.

Shaft driven Aero is much smoother than the chain driven ACE although the ACE has a slightly quicker take-off.

Handlebar design is different. I like the beach-bar design of the ACE. More relaxed. Easy response.

 

In the end, they ride the same. Hey, it's a Honda, right? What more can you ask for? :clapping:
