Michelin got 3 tyres. Pilot Sports, Pilot Power & Pilot Race.

 

Pilot Sports - Performance road tyres. good for daily road use with good mileage. Cheapest of the 3.

 

Pilot Power - higher grade than Sports, track/road tyres. Personally using now Mileage almost as good as sports. Grippy even on wets. Should be around $350 a pair.

 

Pilot Race - Track tyres. Super sticky but wear very fast (Less than 1 year all gone). Should be around $400 a pair. Not sure if rear got 150 size.

 

 

Size is 120 front, 150 rear. Sports and Power got 150 size rear available. Some ppl use 160 rear but will rub against chain (depending on the chain you use). Choose according to your usage and budget.

Thanks bro. Maybe I'll go for the pilot power tyres....

the starter dont even have the "ngiak ngiak ngiak" sound.. the sound of starting the engine.

check ur batt...think ur batt negative and positive terminal got the solid thing built up..use a small hamer to hamer away any particles that are built up or u can use hot water to pour over it...

 

if u check ur batt and notice that there is no built up of particle then shld be ur batt weak..change a batt

 

if u check ur att and found out that it is strong then check ur starter relay, it might be spoil.

 

above are the more common problem. for serious problem..it might include coil or rectifier not charging etc...

Bro,

 

i suggest for your patch jobs, go to First Motor.. Their price is abit high.. actually to me ok, coz you not moulding anything.. but their workmanship is very good..

 

Plus K&T i see damn busy now..

Go first motor patch??? Got alot of small small crack leh...think at least will see 4-5 line on the head fairing and 2 big one at the front fenders....sianz....

Yea bro, I suggest you go to first motor, talk to the boss there, get a rough estimate on how much it will cost la... then decide if u wanna do it there. They are quite expensive la,(i wanted to do a sigle seater for my NSR150sp... plus paint, seats and leds all cost nearly 600-700, so i ended up not doing it at all, too ex la). On the other hand I heard that the workmanship is good. Go there talk to the boss la see how much he say first.

I agree with sub regarding the pipe performance, especially performance of legal pipes don't make a big difference, maybe 2-3 hp increase with proper tuning. The most is the exhaust flow will be more free and the ride significantly gets smoother.

 

A big difference will come with a full race system, but sad to say becos they are designed to optimise performance, the emission cannot compromise to street legal standards. For example, the 2brothers or Micron full system, due to its similar length 4-1-1 header design instead of the stock 4-2-1, allows more torque produced but max performance must also go with proper jetting, aftermarket air filter etc. U can see more information about RVF modification on 400GreyBike.co.uk

 

The Leo vince pipe I happen to saw it on another thread so post it here. Heard that it's bigger (Oval shaped) and shorter than other street legals but I feel that the 3 point mounting looks funny - if u take a better look at the pics, the pipe seems to be fixed in using nuts instead of bolts.

 

The thread says the pipe had not gone clear of inspection at the moment so I cannot say its street legal but the pipe both side got tags, ie, legal for left and right mounting if it passes the inspection. So RVF can install I think

I agree with Adidas on whatever he says..

 

Which is why i'm not wasting my time and money on a 2brothers endcan which so many ppl are seemingly after, yet i doubt it makes a huge difference..

 

And the full system is sooo overpriced man.. I rather save up, and buy the Tyga full system.. That's my target for this year..

 

I hate to say this, but guys, pls.. Dont be fooled by this 2brothers endcan.. Many ppl are exploiting this need by selling the endcan so expensive.. Come on la, the last yr of it's production was 1998.. At that time, full system cost abt $1200... That's 8 yrs ago..

 

Spend your money wisely, is what i say.. Dont be seduced by what other people say.. My firm belief is that with proper tuning and settings, all endcans shld roughly perform the same!
