Sucks man... My SPEC II is doing 19km/L.... Any way to improve it?

[NoobVtec2]

Hi guys,

 

I'm riding spec2 and at full tank , i can travell till abt 280km then my fuel meter start to flash. Is it normal consumption? Also when fuel meter start to flash.. how much more Km can the fuel tank last? Btw how you guys judge by km/L?

 

how big is spec2 fuel tank, 18 litre too?

 

Thanks.

Mine also 280km+/-

Flashes meaning hit reserved liao

Heard can go another 72km

km/L = Total Mileage Travelled / Total Petrol Pumped

The tank is 18L

guys... i riding version s... issit ok that my bike is running on the coolant from the radiator alone and not from the reserve? cos jus now wash bike.. noticed that the reserve was disconnected and was dry... cos previously i send it for repairs at SANFU regarding coolant leaking... and they repaired my cylinder head for me.. b4 i bring it for repairs.. i did top up the reserve coolant reservoir.. so i guess they purposely disconnect it and drain it.. aniway.. issit ok?? anyone of u disconnect the reserve coolant reservoir oso?

Why disconnect the reseves tank if not enough coolant in ur system u risk of greater damage and are u sure u wan that?

No one in the right mind will go disconnect the tank.

nope my vtec bought at cycle link... its a gun metal grey with spec III design...

i also feel vibrations when i hit ard 90 kmh... at first very jialat but slightly reduced after i washed my chain and lube it nicely... then further slightly reduced after i changed tyres... think next will be my wheel bearings... den maybe will be not so much vibration...

Sorry to hear that. Probably your battery already flat or your recifier is faulty liao. Just change them and should be okie. Usually what I did when my bike die half way, I park somewhere...go home get my spare battery and recifier to fix it. First I will change my battery first, then I use the voltmeter to check the voltage should be around 12.8 ~ 13VDC and stay there when I ramp at higher RPM in netural gear. If it doesn't, that means the recifier spoil liao. Hope this help

1) When idling that time, it just die? I experience this before. I send it to the mechanic and he said the carb is dirty and need to clean. I also asked them to tune the engine since my last tuning was done almost a year ago. Spark plug was also change altogether. After that the idling was constant and engine did not die anymore.

 

2) No electric coming out after changing the battery and recifier? Probably the carbon coil has worn off especially if the bike is about 4 to 5 years old. Meanwhile, you can still push start the bike.

 

I hope this help.

my bike oso same prob.. at first tot rectifier spoil and went to change a new one... but after changing.. my bike voltage very unstable and the mechanic troubleshoot for me and found out one of the wires in the terminal which is connected to the rectifier is faulty.. so he jus changed a new wire for me which includes a fuse... told me it will still work fine with the new wire... and told me not necessary to change new one.. and says if i wan change a new terminal... cost around $60...

guys if the oil is dark brownish in colour almost black is it time to change oil? i just changed my oil about 2000 km ago with motul 300v + engine protector from combine. i did an engine flush prior to that.
