hi guys... issit true that changing of spark plug.. engine oil, oil filter and air filter will improve the performance and fuel consumption of my bike?? cos bike bought for about 3weeks... when buy from motorshop dunno they really got service my bike anot... sometimes when riding at 80km/h the speed stay ther.. very hard to go up.. turn the throttle a lot and the power come on very slow... my guess is air filter might be very dirty.. dunno if i'm right anot... then sometimes goes up slope feel like got some power loss... dunno issit common for Version S.... nid some advise .. thanks

[adi]

Don’t take their words as you didn’t see for yourself, it best to send your bike for service, when I get my bike, I service if after 1 week and guess what............... carb dirty, one of the floater break . After service bike feel smoother

Iguess u need to go for service dont trust shop, do ur servcing in other shop. Cos a full service like this this cost about $100 for shop.

Dirty air filter will cause ur bike not to accelerate. Last time my S4 also 120km/h cannot go liao, go for servicing and tuning,then every thing ok.

I guess ur sit filter very dirty go and chnage KNN filter about $60-$65 u will feel the difference.

Tuning,plugs,4T,oil filter and air filter are things u need to chnage.

[HONG]

i was thinking of getting the original air filter leh.. knn realli better?? i noe can reuse by jus washing it right?? but will the bikeshop do it for me the next time i go service my bike?? will they wash for me?

[hachi]

Original air filter about $38 and u need to change every 20000km but KNN u can wash urself, buy the recharger kit for $18 and can wash serveral times, so which u think is more worth it?

Not forgetting the better performance by KNN.

Some shop like sanfu charge $10 per wash for KNN filter.

I guess 3-5 years should be ok and I dont think u will ride ur bike so long. SO it will last till u sell ur bike. Recharger kit I have not bought but according to my friend about 3-4 times. SOuld last u 2-3 years.

And having KNN on ur bike when selling that time is also a bonus. That means u r using PERFORAMCE filter.
