[ambasnakeman]

hey, i tried to wheelie up my rvf so many time till my clutch plate worn off completely. the stock ones i doubt is good enough. i am replacing to stock ones next week since covered by motorshop warranty.

 

when i got money, then change to ebc heavy clutch set. probably wheelie till siao again.

 

akrapovic55, i am aware that u conduct wheelie outings. probably u can share with us, the various methods u lift up the bikeand maintain.

 

sometimes i get the fear that the bike will fall backwards

Mi???????I jio people go malaysia eat.Cheaper ,want to speed ( speeding is dangerous) also a bit safer than singapore.

For mi,my bike is power enough to do a power wheelie on 1st gear.So it rather easy to wheel lift.to maintain depend on your gut and balabce skill.

 

As for 400 cc bike.i last time i also only can pop.cant maintain.The one guy i saw maintain is suzusky on rvf.He expert on cluth.As 400cc cant power wheelie unless you super mod. Wat he told mi,is 400cc bike you might need rear brake to help in lifting up.and maybe bounce your bike to lift up easily.

TThat why ,if you can maintain a 400cc bike ,you must b every expert.And meeting expert is my honour.like i had meet suzusky and fc2222 and suzuki13.

3 expert in wheelie.I know there more people that is good in wheelie but not inside forums.

 

i just trying to gather more wheelie biker together.Learn and teach,maybe a video make by SG biker on stunt.

KNN dun hav air filter for RVF...

they use other model n cut out e size for rvf

hmm try k&t.. he might have it..

e last time i heard abt e price was $70

[ambasnakeman]

just to let u guys know that

vfr and hurricane same front brake disc

rvf and later model cbr same front brake disc

 

hurricane disc alot more hole meaning less contact area.

my rvf now using hurricane disc. if u notice hurricane caliper is smaller.

the 2nd hand disc i got, the edges were still thick.

 

for those of u guys intending to keep rvf for very long, i think investing on a 2nd hand disc cheap and safekeeping is a good idea

[ambasnakeman]

now that the front brakes are ok again, can do hard braking again. the rvf feels alot better.

 

the steel hose still not installed yet, due to 1 adapter missing

Hey...peepz,

 

Remebering we were having this conversation about the Air intakes of the RVF been "for show" only??

 

Well...lookie what i digged up from the net that says otherwise.

 

 

http://www.honda.co.jp/factbook/motor/RVF/19940100/image/007-002.gif

 

 

The passage of BAD english below is none of my doing and is translated by Google from a Old Jap Honda webby called Factbook.

 

"Inhalation system as the air which was sucked from the air intake of NASA duct type by the fact that it makes the design which is led to the air cleaner via the duct, rise of intake air temperature is held down, made that the mixture which is always optimum is sent into the cylinder possible, actualized the engine efficiency which is stabilized. Furthermore, it allots the urethane inside the duct of the air cleaner and assures also the decrease of inhalation sound."

 

If the pic dun show up right.... go here-->> http://www.honda.co.jp/factbook/motor/RVF/...age/007-002.gif

 

Not sure what the jap words in the pic means, maybe Tachi can help me out here....

 

 

Apparently, what the jap webby is trying to say is that the air gg thru the 2 air intakes and blowing down "uselessly on to the cylinder heads" (which i thought it was) actually helps to cool down the air currents going into your airbox for a cooler air intake charge. And this downward acting air pressure oso helps in reducing the airbox suction noise!

 

wow...is that cool or what? honda thought of everything!!

[Sandman]

Thanx Vic for the cool insight into the nostril (literally!) of our dear NC35. Honda definitely designed them for a purpose (maybe more?). Try taking them off if you're not convinced. And tell us your side of the story. Haha.

 

Well, guyz, itching for a ride? How about one up North this Sat evening?
