I find that my krr abit hard to start in the morning.. So i pull choke and open abit of throttle then kickstart.. Will that harm the bike? I still very newbie to kickstart..

my bike...not only morning hard to start

when left parked for long period of time 5-6hrs also hard to start already

Got a quote including workmanship = $90. Is it too expensive?

hm...sound alright leh

the cost of buying the plates already more than $50 liaoz

together w/ worksmanship...sounds alright to me

provided the work done is good

What do u mean by flip throttle a couple of times? Before or after the bike is started or while kicking?

 

Must thank you ar, u have been very helpful!

no problem everyone starts some where

 

u open the throttle b4 u turn on the key like as if racers reviv the bike b4 race

 

start this actually to let petrol flow from carb to cylinder imagine the scenario

 

piston at top-end position near spark plug with lots of fuel= good detonation

 

therefore easy start

 

leave the choke on till the rev climbs up to 2-2.5 rpm thats where the idling can

 

manage its own

 

move off say 5-10 mins later would be nice but keep rev below 7rpm for the first

 

half hour as the temp meter not accurate

 

never rev hard on cold engine where wear and tear takes place

wah piang eh just call the other day like 1 week ago

saw their equiment quite ok mah so recommend lor

 

had my reed valve installed by ah san the chief engineer find the skills ok leh

 

intend to change there myself later but dont ask him to wash carb becos his

how good the 2T u wan to use depends on how deep yr pockets and how frequently u whack yr bike i suppose

i'm currently using castrol activ X for $4/bottle frm LAB

 

 

huh? if no stock then dont change lor...wait till another dae lar..hehe

sorry Don dont agree with your philosophy on 2T

 

For 2-stroke engines there 2 lubrication workin either 1 fails out comes the money

 

Engine oil for the lower part

 

2T for the top part

 

smoother acceration means less throttle do same amount of work

 

experience my kips on normal esso 2t and gold till now R2 same stretch of road

 

lower rev but same speed on way to work and back

 

took out my valves to wash very black due to changin 2t here and there

 

correct me if im wrong still learnin

i dont understand..so which part of the philosophy dont u agree on?

what u mentioned like dont have direct link to mine wor....?

anyway it's not philosophy lar..not so exaggerated

 

anyway i was a previous faithful user of R2 before...

ok in short doesnt matter whether u ride hard or not (whack) u should use the

 

best grade 2T within your financial abilities

 

the difference is in the engine condition after using otherwise prepared to do up

 

the engine in lesser mileage

hm

so it corresponds to the 'what 2T to get depends on how deep yr pockets are' thingy right....?

now i really blur liaoz

anyway doesnt always mean use best 2T = best for yr bike

it's pretty up to individuals

some 2T are rather thick...more suitable for bikes like scramblers which whack throttle one

for gentle riders like me if i were to use such 2T...confirm the accumulated uncombusted 2T stuck in the system will require me to send my bike for more regular visits to motordiam

haha

cos u chiong marh

we slow riders and got lottsa cars ard

anyway nxt time must ride slower liaoz...later kena lost again then sian liaoz

alamak jia lard liao

 

your mind set revolves around revin

 

okay little bit of accounts here 1 month average per bottle of 2T $13 against $4

 

got major diff meh

 

for gentle riders like you ( ridin kips gentle meh?? just kiddin ) when 2T adjust sui

 

sui less will be accumulated

 

u will need to clear carbon more or less in ways u deem fit either by riding hard

 

(so called whacking ) or mech wash the cylinder or muffler for u every 6 mths to 1

 

yr

 

btw noticed the tip of muffler like salivating after long time of subdued ridin

hm

if abt 1 mth one bottle??

my bike is furious drinker of 2T

one mth = $9 liaoz

 

no lar..my mindset is not abt reving

my mindset is abt cost-benefit concept

 

get better 2T if and only if the benefit exceeds the cost

 

for me...i only clear carbon like once every 2weeks....

so i dont get to receive as much benefits frm using gd 2T as other more fierce riders

and oh yes...i have a gentle krr

 

but then the part abt accumulated uncombusted 2T is true...

i got friend who had to clean valve cause his valve got jammed up by the uncombusted esso 2t gold he used....

his mechanic also mentioned to him that his piston got a little jammed...cause of the same reason

wah piang 1 month 2 bottles quite high comsumption of 2T

 

as for clearin carbon went in jb and max out for half an hour twice a month

 

your friend's valve got jammed thats true but when was the last time he washed valve,age of vehicle,style of ridin ( did he clear carbon like u did every 2 weeks ), mech's advice chun boh ( make money more than speakin truth )

 

sorry doing survey had mine done at 6 months ago now wash valve also dirty but due changing 2T here and there

 

find that R2 flow easily and thin enuf by my standards anyway to each his own

eh when wash valve the cylinder (block) comes out as well so u can check the piston as well as ring

 

if wash valve plus change piston plus 2 rings ( made in jap ) gonna cost u $150 spore dollars but be prepared to wait for 5-6 hours:giddy:

[dyerfix]

Hi guys, would like to hear from krr experts here. I was riding my kips along CTE this morning when suddenly got zzz sound,then engine die. i tried starting again and it did...so i rode slowly to skool. im not sure if its the piston problme. cuz i`hear metal noises from the block. how can we adjust the 2T intake for this bike?

 

thanks for the help guys....me really at a loss now

no lar

i agar one bottle per mth

i tried to adjust the 2T intake screw on the outside...turn down until canot turn liao...still eat ard 1mth 1 bottle

but it's alright lar...if one bottle $4 then im fine w/ it...

 

anyway that friend of mine do clear his valve frm time to time....

that's why he also dulan....used good 2T ended up the 2T was too thick for his style of riding

 

anyway..how come changing brand of 2T will cause the valve to become dirty huh?

hmz..go JB? 2nd link huh? hehe

 

if wash valve plus change piston plus 2 rings ( made in jap ) gonna cost u $150 spore dollars but be prepared to wait for 5-6 hours:giddy:

wah..new piston ring = run in!!

cant actually remember the terms the lao jiao used but have something to do with viscosity of different brands of 2T

 

therefore advisable to stick 1 kind of 2T and petrol feel more smooth for me

 

new piston rings not equal to run-in
