Add on to ramsnake...

 

Usually when people got 1st bike (125cc), cos only using 1 litre of EO so they sayang their bike and change EO regularly at 2-3k by using fully syn.

 

But when got big bike liao, pocket no enuf money cos using 3.5l-4l of EO... so skim abit extend the EO mileage to 6-10k. In fact alot of people changing at 8k above and bike no problem one lor...

 

So its all depends on how deep ur pocket only...

Most chain lube come in standard size cans. The other day, I was in the mood to clean my bike so just bought a can of lube from my neighbourhood Shell station to use. Brand is Holt. Comes with the short red tube for "focused" spraying on the chain.

 

My guess is when you got your can bitten in the sprocket, your left hand was holding the can and spraying while your right hand was turning the wheel. The moment when your can kena bite, was when you looked at your right hand turning the wheel, right? LOL, guaranteed to happen... :lol:

 

This is what I do. My chain has a clip so I use that as a reference point. Spray the top of the chain thats at the bottom. You'll have covered about 1 foot of chain. Stop spraying. Rotate wheel until another foot of chain not yet lubricated is under swingarm. Spray, rotate and so on until you see the clip again. Then you know the whole chain is sprayed.

 

Light a cigi and enjoy. By the time I finish my cigi, its roughly 10 minutes, which is about the time we should let the lubricant sit before wiping off excess lube with a cloth. When wiping, use the same procedure as spraying, i.e. wipe, rotate, wipe, rotate.

 

If your bike thirst for engine oil, it could mean your piston rings are worn. This is assuming you've checked to ensure no leaks anywhere else. EO is meant to lubricate the lower part of the piston, crank, gears & clutch system. The piston ring is supposed to prevent EO from going into the combustion chamber. When rings are worn, EO leak into the combustion chamber and gets burnt in the process. Thus losing oil.

 

Cheap solution is to try using Motul (300V) to see if you still need to top up. If still need to top up regularly, then confirmed, ring gone. Need overhaul.

May seem expensive to overhaul but I personally feel its cheaper in the long run than to constantly top up.

 

correct way of applying chain lube is to apply when chain is hot

I somehow have the impression that owning an sp, maintenance is higher, plus FC is what 15km/L??

Best to leave to Sean to comment, he rode an SP for 4yrs before switching to RwR.

 

S4 is very practical, once you take 2A you'll greatly appreciate Honda...however exactly what you said, 4sparkplugs, EO... its like owning a Class 2 bike...so you might want to consider...try researching more about other bikes, S4 may not be the best choice...

 

sp and rwr canot compare la

the price of 1 rwr can buy 4 sp already lol

but savings on FC quite substantial

but my sp was doing 13-15km/l

nowadays ride rwr

1 month duno got spend 50 bucks on petrol or not

That's right. I thought its a given, so didn't mention. Anyway, thanks for highlighting.

Also, in order to get chain warmed up enough, got to ride for at least 20-30 minutes. Then lube immediately after ride. Thus, clean chain and rinse off cleaner. Wipe dry. Ride 20 minutes minimum. Lubricate after ride.
