my 650 can only hit at the most 22-23km/l

 

your average speed in sg is 110-120 lah.

 

and you squeeze the throttle like nobody business.

 

go at 80-100, gentle with the squeeze.

 

u know wat i mean. :)

sure can? i can normally hit 21km/l but i am 95kg.

Weight does play a big part. I am 94....

Hit 21

1 thing to take note... 2 spark plug model at best is 21-24

4 spark plug ranges around 25 +/- ....

 

All this are for 650.... 1000 not applicable

 

weight is one of the reason why i pick the wee. :cheeky:

 

YEH.. with my weight... the only CL2 that can hit 400 b4 reserve.. wohoooo

gargantua>>> $107 for KNN air filter...hhmmm so now I know how much is the labour cost...I did my KNN air filter for $130...:cheeky:

 

khaitronic>>> Bro...thot this might help...once the petrol bar start blinking you have roughly about 3liters to run. Maybe you could calculate based on 20km/l...dun be like me...I run my bike till empty becoz I thot there is a fuel knob...:cheeky:

Thanks Daniyal...haha u really run ur bike till empty...

 

Okay guys...

Im still a newbie...just got a class 2 and this is my first class 2 bike...hence im still learning more bout biking n have much2 less experience than u all...

 

Now i understand that a 1000cc bike is too overpowered for sg roads...hmm guys issit okay to always under rev ur bike? so far my rpm is just like ard 3....im not sure whether they will be any side effect for under reving it...

 

My rear came with monolock plate..taken it out and wanted to replace with my monokey...as im having a monokey box... thought my plate was universal...as i have been using it with different type of bracket before this with no probs...

to my surprise i cant fix it at my Vee...the limited holes on the Vee bracket just dont match with my givi plate...sian i feel so handicap without the box...

 

 

Anyway...guys do anyone knows where to get a die-cast model for this bike?:)
