Step 1, find big pair of scissors

 

Step 2, recognise that there's only 2 areas that cause your current problem. Seat or LP? Seat... I don't think you can cut the seat nicely with a pair of scissors so the primary objective is now ascertained. Cut away!!!

cannot imagin

But seriously lah, there is too much emphasis that a 150cc bike drinks too much petrol etc..etc.. I mean, how bad can it be? From day 1 of getting my bike (In very bad shape), it still manages 19-20km per litre of petrol. It has greatly improved due to my itchy fingers & neverending quest for more power & less petrol used but if you have to ask me, to get 30+ horsepower at 19km/l, I'd accept that!

Meter assembly $400

fairing bracket $80

forks to straighten press $100

tow fees?

Fair price if you ask me.

Don^: Ok thanks for your reply. I heard as well maintenance for a the bike is usually more expensive than usual. Is this also true? Also, how do I go about looking for a "trustworthy" Kips owner? Thanks if you could give more advice.

if do performance mod...petrol consumption confirm high

my KRR can do 320KM on 8.5litres

that works to ard 37KM/litre which i find is affordable for me

hm..i feel maintenance for 2B sportbikes are all pretty much the same

in fact it's not the maintenance that's costly...it's the replacement of wear and tear parts like tyres, chain, etc thats gonna cost more

 

regarding how to spot for trustworthy seller...i have no idea also

i kena partially conned for my own bike also

so the only advice i can tell pple is to be more careful

i dont know what the previous owner did

heard that he changed the carb jetting to smaller size

then visually what i can see for myself...my rear sprocket is only 37 teeth...so it does help abit in my fuel consumption while i travel on highways alot i guess

RPM shift 4-5KRPM

open valve for 5min every tank of petrol

full tank really pump till full full...ever squeezed in $12.50 worth of Exxon2000 in before

tyre air pressure and freeplay of chain also plays a part

anyone know where buy Fullface better?

[Shockard]

Wah this march I damn suay leh..

 

Today go motordiam to try to adjust my footrest after the fall on saturday, and also buy 1 spark plug..

 

Ride go out.. First bend I buang Road got sand but didn't notice until too late and tried to brake.. Very dumb of me.. I kept looking at the kerb, i was riding alongside the kerb then fell on my left.. Slight scratch on my left arm, helmet took a hit, visor abit hard to close now.. Thank god for my FF.. In the end, LPPL u-turn and go back to the motordiam to fix..

 

Left fairing scratched until very jialat, mud guard also.. The front U-shaped fairing also needs to change.. Now the uncle only use plastic 'string' to hold together the fairing for me.. Tomorrow stock then come.. Checked forks...etc.. All are working perfectly, only comestic stuff... All the 3 pieces costs 130+worksmanship..

 

Guess it's only money that I'm gonnna burn, thank god for my FF and that I landed on grass.. Lucky bike only landed on kerb..

 

I'll get my scratched fairings back.. Firespitter want right?

managed 333km before hitting reserve then pump in 9.9 litres of fuel which works

 

out as 33km/litre

 

difference of 4km/litre against your original kips i think sounds great to

 

me
