Hi naptune,

i'm the one whom u met at the carnival who knows the previous owner of ur bike.

Actually ur bike's main harness is starting melt already.

It's the piece of fuse located somewhere at ur tailboard.

Well its always better to fix the problem b4 it get worse.

maybe when there is any rvf outing juz ask wayne to ask me along too loh.

i'm also a rvf rider:smile:

this kawasakininja is 1 fierce rider.. hahaha.. juz joking.. this chap here is a nice guy... went to 2nd link a few times with him b4.. very friendly...

shay why dont you call the old boys out for another outing? :x

 

 

(im bert la you idiot!)

[Jie Liang]

just wanna ask u guys aprox how long u guys take to take ur 2A ?

[dannis]

I m organizing an outing to Kota Tingi Waterfalls either this Sat or Sun. Gona be a slow ride in between 70-110km/h as the roads are not so good. Swimming there but ladies dont bring bikini but rather T-shirts n pants. Those interested pls read Aprilia Forum on SBF. Those who cant maintain speed discipline pls dont come for I fear accident. The roads are full of sand n holes esp at the corners so pls understand this fact of safty concern.

hey....u seemed miiighty familiar...have we met on previous outings before? or have u changed yr nick?

 

Anyhoo.... i think not much chance of getting that big gathering of rvfs again la. Most of the old boys that i hang out with has either upgraded/downgraded.

 

These few weeks kinda busy so wont have the time and energy to organise those outings like before. y'all....but impromptu rendevous for Kopis still ok la...

 

Hey like i said.... if u all really keen..go ahead and organise outings in this space. newbies orgy, oldies will come, oldies organise newbies oso will come....doesnt matter right? All are rvfians.

 

Plan away folks!

Ahh yes! i miss the west side warriors man! Howz your home track--the 99 bends? have they fixed the damn surface yet?

 

2ndlink sounds great! my bike is looking forward to some workout..kekekeke.

Eugene,

 

I'm bringing my bike in for servicing this week..when the tank comes off, i'll try take a pic and show you where that wire harness in the main frame is. But i dun think its any cause for concerns. Only happen to a small handful of rvfs anyway.

uhm..isit via 2ndlink?

 

Sorry..dun mean to be rude but asking various different capacities of bikes to all maintain the speed range of 70-110 is not practical.

Sub 90s is considered quite slow when travelling on NSH.

Everyone's speed range comfort is different depending on thier machines and riding style.

 

FYI riding too Slow doesnt mean its safe.

 

perhaps can suggest to move off in batches?

hey vicky,

 

i'll try to help on the rest that is not answered;

 

1) he should be either.... be refering to ;

 

a) the harness leading to the headlights. The headlights are a common source of electrical failure if you use bulb ratings higher than 35/55 W.It can burn at the switch, or the high beam switch or the headlights contacts or the wiring loom leading up to the contacts. Stick to the oem ratings to avoid such problems, if not..install a switch and relay at any mechanics that you trust or often frequent.

 

Or..

 

b) The wiring loom interconnect under the tank, lined up against the front of your aluminuim twin spar frames. 2 of my mechs said that area is prone to burn too. For what reason i dunno, hasnt happen to me (or any rvfians i know) but my best guess is harness chaffing against weld edges.

 

 

2) Tires pressure for rider alone ; 33psi front....33 psi back ( yea iz weird that front and back are the same but thaz what the Haynes manual says.)

 

pressure for rider + pillion ; 33 ps front..... 36 psi back.

 

If you forget.... look down the left hand side swingarm. Its printed on a label on your chain guard...in Japanese words of course. It will read as "Qian Lun"..... " Huo Lun". Units in kpa.

 

 

5) Prob 5 like the others said..could be due to your carb in need of svc. But even when its properly tune....it can be hard to maintain an idle on cold starts especially during dewy cold mornings and nights where condensation levels are high.

 

So.....DO this; start bike..maintain throttle slightly to keep revs at about 1.5K rpm for about 20-30 seconds. SLowly let go...the bike should settle in to a nice idle (if u ask me why...i'll have to answer in next post).

 

Next, check idling speed (rpm) when bike is warmed up. it should ideally be in the 1000-1300 range. Not too low or you'll have problems with cold starts. You can adjust it yourself via the cute little knob located on the left hand side fairing recess (where Eugene pointed to you that you have a missing screw ) Its right next to the choke lever. Clockwise is Increase and vice versa ..try it! Its fun!

i got all her fuses changed a few weeks ago already. A check awhile after that shows the electrical system is running fine.

its always good to have spare fuse avaliable all de time.. happens to me all de time where fuses are blown dats y i said so.. no harm to have some spares..

 

eh i oso at de outing mah.. jus dat i not riding rvf liao.. haa.. CRASHED IT SOME TIM?E BACK!

[dannis]

Correct. It is #3 road. Go via woodlands customs. No highway at all n lots of holes on the roads esp at the corners so thats why i mention slow speed. If NSH i prefer to travel at crusing 110-130km/h. On the way to Kota Tingi I will go at my said speed unless some bloody stupid msia kups start to blow at me the I will show them Aprilia famous Roar.

[Jie Liang]

anyone got 2bros/other brand also can header for sale or full system for RVF pls pm me tks..
