Just open your rider seat, there's a box beside the fuel tank.. You take and see lor, shake shake also can.. If got water inside then is battery water liao.. There should also be a overflow tubing underneath it..

there are alot of red knobs and there is a min and max lines... so does this mean it is use battery water 1?

Yup..

[copguys]

yo fellows kips... any place to intro to do full service for new bike tat run 5000km?? heard alot of combine motor... did u all go there to do?

[R3sistor]

If yours is a first hand bike, you probably only need regular oil change and spark plug changed.

Have yr carb washed every 2 to 3 mths (depending how rich you are). and yr valve washed about every once every 4 mnths(depends how often u use yr bike)..

since yr bike is 5000km travelled, you probably won't need that extensive service. Just have yr Engine oil changed, spark plug. Check yr brake pads, if its thin, jus change. When was the last time you washed yr carbs? well, if you had not done so throughout the 5000km u have used yr bike.. u can opt to have it washed. Cost me only $10 for washing of carbs. Wash yr valve too, IF YOU have the money. ($25)

Combine motor is indeed a good place. But their services and things doesn't come cheap. I recommend you planet motors instead.

Its either you have yr spockets set for pickup OR top speed.

You can;t have the best of both world.

yup

check the water level in the battery

if it's way below the minimum marking

then go to petrol kiosk mart to buy distilled water for batteries

then topup into the battery

 

i used to have problem same as u...realised that my battery water level damn low already...after topping up...battery works like normal again already

Anybody here been to Bangkok and bought parts (Aftermarket & original) for the KRR? Care to share some addresses (Or leads)?

[R3sistor]

Hi firespitter, i;ve been to bangkok last year on a holiday trip.

Tried scouting around for cheap parts as well. Its pretty hard. Firstly, most of the motor accessories shops i go to only carry very cheap things like NGK spark plug and etc.

A big PROBLEM is language! Its quite hard to tell them what you looking for cause most of them can't understand english.

The best deal i found was the heavy duty chain. Guess what its only $6 bucks! But, do make sure that its the right type of chain for your bike..

As for things like after market end cans.. never seen them.. maybe i was at the wrong place..

and sorry.. can't give u any address.. cause.. i don even know what that place i went was called..

hehe..

nope

KRR can start even when battery is low

cause it's kickstart...not electric start like other bikes

how abt u try adjusting yr idling speed abit higher?

or keep the choke opened and bike riding at idle for awhile more before u close back the choke?

I think your idling is too low.. Used to have that problem when I set my idling rpm 1.2k (It's around 1k with headlights on when cold, engine will die any moment if I don't throttle after it starts)

 

Now I set it to 1.2-1.3k when cold without headlights.. After some riding, the rpm goes up to about 1.4k...

hello kips riders!

 

will be getting a kips this month end (2/05), but due to overseas work commitment in 2006 will have to give it up max in a year's time. probably selling ard dec... know its a bit early but any1 who's interested in a kips at that time/ will be getting their licences ard year end and is interested... do drop me a mail to indicate your interest. definitely selling at a good price (for the buyer, that is).

 

meanwhile looking forward to becoming a fellow kips rider, albeit for a while only

 

 

 

edit: just realised there's no need to put down my mail addy since there's a board function for that

hm...the mudguard better dont change until too short

there's a requirement somewhere regarding the length of mudguard for bikes that do come w/ original mudguard...

 

but if u still wan to do...u can consider

shift the rear number plate up all the way until below the brakelight, cut the mudguard until juz below the number plate edge

 

as for the brakelight and signal combination light u wan to change...make sure u make sure that it is able to have the taillight...

(meaning when headlight etc switch on...the rear red color light will light up....and when u brake...the light will brighten up more type)

 

i've seen some bikes who change to the combi light but dont have the taillight...quite dangerous when riding at night...

the screw that is facing down try it with num 10 socket

 

careful with the tightening and unscrewing as damaged tread cause leakage
