Sorry no.

Pls do read back a few pages where we had a thorough discussion or better still do a proper search online.

Quickshifter allows you to keep your throttle pinned open while shifting. Clutchess upshift requires u to close ur throttle.

u mean mito's oem pipe or arrow's pipe?

both are diff wor...

mito's oem pipe dun need koz on the pipe got engrave it is the stock pipe for mito125, unless it sounds unusually loud, then you can be hauled over to the inspection center for checkup by the rov!

arrow's pipe got 2 versions, race and approved type. race pipe of course is for track use only and can never be converted to rd legal use!

approved pipe came wit a cert, wit matching serial number code on both the cert and on the end of pipe/stomach.

both looks exactly the same on the endcan section, with the exception of a serial number dat was engraved on the approved pipe.

arrow pipe do sounds louder, higher pitched and harsher than mito's oem pipe!

u can change the endcan packing, aka glass fiber sheets for $20+ at most bike shops. the loud sounds are most prob due to old packings wit alot of old 2t oil soaked inside them, thus reducing the efficiency of sound absorbing qualities of them.

 

thanks guys for the concern! might be back soon... heheh....

Hello Guys,

I'm a noob rider that has just borrowed my friend's FM plate Cagiva Mito, and would like to see your advice on a few issues. Btw, she was such a blast! - I can now understand the passion of Cagiva supporters like yourselves

 

Understand that I should do some research first before posting - I've gone through the whole thread of "Motordiam Rating", and if I were to go thru all of the 300 pages of this thread, it'll take an extremely long time. Plus I also dunno whether the shop still around or whether price change; have heard of a few shops that start out good but over time degenerate into money-minded "chopping boards". So hope you don't mind my questions.

 

1. Problem: Bike cannot start

Although a really old bike, when he passed the bike to me, all working fine, including electric start. On my way home, engine stalled. Then it can be be push start, have ridden and revved the engine over 7k rpm to recharge the battery. But once engine is off, leave for a while, cannot electric-start. The lights come on when the key is turned, but upon pressing the electric start, it sounds like the bike is "trying to crank" but nothing happens. Upon further pressing there is no sound anymore. Now I can't even push start the bike, or maybe it could be my noobie push starting skill. Or maybe she dun like me heh.

 

We figured it was the battery, but I thought I'd run it though you guys.

- Could it be the ever common rectifier problem, then change battery also no use?

- How to check rectifier if cannot start bike?

- Or is it as simple as taking out the battery and bringing it to LAB to test and replace if necessary?

 

 

2. Servicing: Recommended mechanic

Since he it has been a really long time since the bike was last serviced, I thought might as well have it towed to a mechanic for checking on the above problem and servicing. Since I'm a total noob and I figured it'd be really obvious to the mechanic,

was hoping you guys can advise where so I will not be "tokked jialat jialat". My friend couldn't advise me here. Since it's not my bike, I feel an added responsibility in bringing her to a skilled and responsible mechanic.

 

Here's what I've found, comments (especially regarding ke-tok and pricing nature) please? Can tell me who to look for? If not these, any others would you recommend?

1. First Motor

 

2. Excel Cycle (Xiao Boon)

 

3. Kallang Cycle (Michael was chief mechanic of Ducati/Cagiva/Triumph right?)

 

4. Eunos Superbike Centre (Kenny)

 

5. Racewerks (William, Bukit Merah)

 

6. Mah (Agent, without some bad reviews)

 

7. Planet Motor (best reviews about honesty in the whole forum! but is Ah Chong experienced with Cagivas? Oh and since we're on this topic, can he do Yamaha WR200 as well?)

 

8. Bike Specialist (Mayo St)

 

 

3. Type of servicing and expected cost:

It's been so long since the bike was serviced (my friend passed the bike to his dad and he DIY), he can't remember when it was last sent in and where..

 

Understand there are different servicings for different intervals - engine & transmission oil, carb & valve servicing;

 

- Which type of servicing should I do and how much?

- What should the full servicing package be and how much?

 

Many thanks in advance for your help and patience in reading. Really appreciate it as a noob
