btw i'm using MICHELIN ROAD 2 on my spec 3 now.........

 

Excellent in the dry and durability.

Very good wet grip and handling.

Good comfort and mileage/price.

MotoGP derived 2CT technology makes it possible to incorporate better grip and longer tread life than its competitors.

 

if i not wrong, infront is 120/60 & rear is 160/80

 

 

how much is BT021 cost????

BT021 cost slightly more den 300 ba (quoted by bikeshop).. I'm also going to change my tire soon.. Choosing bet BT021 or pilot road 2.. Where u get ur pilot road 2 from? And how much? I know both are dual compound except BT021 front tire only single compound.. If pilot road 2 cost abt the same as BT021 den i might get it since ur review for it is so gd..

Hey guys, i am new to riding CB400s and i have a few newbie question to ask.. so here goes...

 

I have a Vtec 1 and i heard from my friend i have a half tong pipe... -_-

 

Can i know what is the use of half tong?

 

And also, i noticed that i have a FC of about 20km per Litre.... is anything wrong? I just wash carb only... and i heard the FC should be around 25km/l ... i seldom open vtec also...

 

Lastly, my gear 1 and 2 very draggy... only gear 3 and above then smooth... is it normal???

Guys, my turn to ask question le..

 

Does changing of front wheel bearing and rubber seal cause the front tire to be very stiff? I juz change a new set of tire today + wheel bearing and rubber seals.. When i go pump air, i used to spin the front tire so that the tire valve is more convenient to pump air, but today when i spin, the tire seems to be very stiff.. Last time i spin it will spin freely.. Does it affect? Is it because the rubber seal or wheel bearing never season tat's y it's stiff?

 

Hope someone can enlighten me.. Thanks..

Problem solve.. The mechanic says have to put down my front tire den fix calipers, cos he say my brake hose is being pulled when my front tire is jetted up, resulting the brake pad rubbing the disc when my front tire is let down.. Duno y my brake hose so weird, anyway problem is solved.. :cheeky: :angel:
