[Group] Yamaha FZ150I

[gkang]

I not planning to get the horn soon, I still waiting for my pay day....haha. Anyway thanks for the offer.

 

BTW is it normal for our bike to need a higher rpm to hit a speed when its under the hot sun for a long time? Usually on normal situation, my bike need 6500rpm to hit 90kmh. But when it travel for more than 15mins, it need more than 7k rpm to hit the same speed. Or is it a tell tale sign that something is wrong with my bike?

FBD plate... might want to get your fuel pump checked out with Hong Leong...

 

mine needed to be fully replaced cuz was totally unable to start in hot weather..

 

if u encounter this again, stop the bike, open ur fuel cap, then start the bike with the fuel cap open... close the cap then continue riding... no worries.. u dun need the key to close the fuel cap..

 

cheers

RM2.30 is equvalent to S$1. Still affordable and cheaper than Sinkapore petrol bro.

i too got tis prod although mine is FBE.hot weather 7.5 rpm hit 100km/hr but at nite i juz ned 7 rpm to hit 100 km/hr.So is tis a prob or its normal?//

Actually i got no idea.....in fact i'm quite disturbed and vexed by this matter. FBE plate doesnt tell u exactly when this bike is produced. BTW my bike is produced in 2008 from wat i see from the paper. wats ur's?

 

In fact its not only the weather that causes this for my bike, it also happens when my bike has been travelling for more than 15-20 mins. The rpm needed to hit the same speed gets higher and higher. The worst that i kena is that my bike is already at 5k rpm and the speed is only 60kmh! At this rpm, the bike shld be at least 70kmh! Seems that heat caused the performance lag however i have no solution to it.

the fuel pump fault gives this type of symptoms especially when exposed to heat.

 

worst case that happened to me was:

 

already woke up late for work,

tried the start the bike but only have the ignition sound. engine refused to fire up

tried kick start, kick till leg cramp still cannot

try push start, push till underwear wet oso cannot

 

arrange urgent leave, and called for tow

while waiting it rained

tow came, brought the bike to shop

reach shop 1 push of the electric starter and the engine roared to life

bike shop checked the bike say no prob and wanted to charge me service fee

 

wasted 1 day of urgent leave, $40 for tow, and a lot of unnecessary effort and perspiration

 

symptoms of this fault are:

 

heavy throttle

higher RPM performance as you guys have mentioned above

obiviously longer time that the light at start up takes to turn off

place ur hand on the tank when turning on the bike and no vibrations r felt or very loud vibrations

 

all under of just after hot weather

 

solution:

bring ur bike to Hong Leong and ask them if they can check the fuel pump

FBD might have to pay to replace but depends on how u talk to them, might get free replacement

FBE might be able to get it replaced free

 

fix it early cuz they might juz change their minds and charge you like $200 to $400 for it
