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

maybe your fuel switch got jammed ask the mech use air-gun to spray for you

the nut to adjust 2T intake is located on the left side of the engine

u will see this black color tube linked to the engine...

by right there should be this rubber covering to cover up the adjusting nuts...juz push it away upwards...

if yrs dont have the rubber covering then juz adjust lor

 

to increase intake = adjust the nut until u c more threads below the nut

 

as for the engine sound...maybe u bring to motordiam better lar....

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

hm...get R4 for yr engine

lagi even more smooth

hahaz

i juz tried it last week...it's

used it b4 beri good now think will change to semi-syn like esso $9 engine oil and change it every month irregardless of mileage clocked

 

max my bike at top couple of days later with new rings very good compression

160km/h easily with pillion

ceramics performance so so friendly on rotor

 

sintered performance beri makan but your rotor kena makan

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

i don really agree on yr point of view..

Firstly, throttling without engine on as u said allows the petrol to flow to carb. But you overdo it, or worst still, do a bit only and yr carbs get flooded and overflow, be prepared to push start.

For krr, using the choke is good enough to start from cold. I don't see anything wrong using choke.. if choke on and kick not start.. just kick a few more times.

sorry pls refer to this http://www.singaporebikes.com/forum/index....246809&st=11790

 

i was trying to improvise shockard's tactic of kick-startin

 

method was taught to me by my first mech still using it today after more than a decade

 

catch the tactic can start within 2 attempts better right

 

kick so many times what start motor-boat siboh

oops sorry maybe i hear wrongly le

 

but BT090 is front tyre also radial not compatible with the front bt39 which is bias

 

had fix on b4 the feeling real weird so change back to bt39

 

think would be better u change back to bias bt39 for safety reasons

can't be they don carry.

I bet they didn't have the size u wanted which is 120/80-17 profile and they start telling you they don carry 120/80-17 profile tyres. Well that's just my own view.

 

Yr Bt090.. 110/70-17 profile? Well.. i guess i know its a front tyre.

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

now testing out the Activ X...seems not much difference to me...

Glad to know you felt the same too. At least now I know my butt dyno is still working well.

 

I used fully synthetic 2T extensively (Previously) but switched to Activ 2T without much "Loss of performance" unlike a lot of other cheap 2T out there (Some of them really slows your acceleration).

 

However, despite all that praises and bla bla bla, there is a marked difference in Synthetic, semi-synth, mineral & castor based 2T in terms of carbon build up.
