enjoy this time as self practice instead. To be a better rider than you are, you need to clock more mileage. Riding alone may not be that bad an idea after all because riding in a group also means more kopi stops and that will take away time that was meant for riding.

 

Ride around more, familiarise yourself with the bike, with the (Horrendous) Singaporean driving/riding behaviour and the routes of Singapore.

I presume your piston is already cleaned, hence nobody can "piston read" it.

 

Also it would be quite impossible to tell as by right, pistons are measured for wear (in microns I think) then a replacement is considered at this point. Unless again , the piston is not cleaned and can be "piston read" to see any symptoms. A good running engine can easily last 60,000 to 80,000 km minimum with good care.

omg ... took the pics at wrong time...

next time will take it before he clean lol ... 10,000km later ..right?

1. im thinking of switching to Maxima Extra 4 EO 15w50. does it helps in 'improving' my engine condition??

2. do my top speed gets higher?

2. any idea of places doing gd overhaul in spore & jb? the prices??

3. what do they change when doing overhaul??

 

thanxx in advance :cheeky: (kR seniors pls guide me)

er..1st of all I am not a senior..i just passby only//

1. i dun think any EO can improve engine condition .. they can only protect ur engine from being further wear and tear..

2.by doing full service does gain back more power .. but for my bike .. i only feel the difference for 2 weeks :cheeky: maybe i am used to the power liao

3.done mine at racewerk ..the best price i found in s'pore $90

they will flush coolent ,change spark plug and gasket for u ...

RAM Air works when there is high velocity air (Usually above 160km/h) . Notice Ram-Air assisted bikes usually have a gaping hole somewhere in the front fairing, this tunnel leads into the airbox. The idea is to force feed air into the carbs. Hope this helps your understanding.

 

Original exhaust mufflers are usually mechanical baffled designs meaning there are internal 3 chamber routings etc.. This helps reduce exhaust noise. There are many guys that use a steel rod and puncture through the plates "to get a straight path", hence increasing noise.

Everybody has their fair share during the noob stage to get "smoked" once in a while. Hopefully through these experiences, we learn and "grow up".

 

Secondly, it really depends what chopped means? For some is because they paid $1-$5 more than another shop would charge....
