will try advertise in the garage sale.

 

dont be sad.

 

try to see it in the other perspective. the new owner will get to enjoy the brand new ohlins shock absorber at no extra costs. and try to imagine you are the new owner.

FC normal ....fuel snsor not normal ...my drop 1 bar after 140km

[anodise57]

fuel sensor sensitivity after 1 yrs.. slowly will behave bit weird... the 1st bar. Mine same too.

But 2nd bar onwards i very much constant

range from 200km-220km for my wee...

Sometime after pumping full, my top bar wont show after like riding for 10 km.. hahaha

sometime happy happy show after around 130-140 then drop.

Unless u feel pocket full then consider go change the sensor lor...

If not... try to live with it. I think there are other more important stuff to change rather then the sensor..

[khaitronic]

Yah lor2... i remember mine was around there too when the one bar down...I'll monitor again...if not then i go Guan hoe check liao...

[ChaoPuzzy1968]

This is correct. I experience same thing. Then sometime the bike can self heal. Heng, now can song song ignore the first bar - no big deal. Just give it some time, it will heal itself - like cha bo.

why spend that money ...go for cstay 650:angel:

I agree. Cstay is bitten by the fjr bug. A window of oppurtunity is now open that will close quickly. An unmotivated seller will not part with his dl650 at that price. If you don't like it, flip it over without much lost, if any. DL650 are easier to sell than dl1k too...

 

And that 14k dl1k is going to hit your pocket a little harder in more ways.

dont worry about the bar thingy.

 

just observe the 2nd and 3rd bar, it takes like forever to disappear.

 

does that make you shiok?

[cstay66]

FC normal ....fuel snsor not normal ...my drop 1 bar after 140km

 

give another year and you see... all sensor thingy needs calibration one.

 

but thankfully, your fc still rocks.

saw that. looks new. great price. grab now. no regrets.

[cstay66]

thanks.....

 

though old, scratches plenty, sound healthy, besides ohlins, accessories many, maintenance easy, save money, vtwin power, until you try and see...

i like the way you put it, but paiseh you know. actually if you take away the price of the new ohlins shock absorber, my wee only sell for 8.3k nia. if you deduct further, my wee may price only $2.50.

 

VAZQUEZ must have a reason to go for the vee. trust that he has done his calculation. money not a problem. wah piang, petrol went up another 5 cents today.

 

it's love at first sight.

[VAZQUEZ]

thx for e advice.... very much appreciated... i will reconsider the option... if u guys have other opinions do feel fee to share with me.. it will be a great help...

[Demues]

Hi guys, i just bought my DL650 K4 from loois, this friday taking her out liao. may i know where to fix the main stand and get the hand guard?

 

Thanks

 

BTW, any outing or touring organised by v strom riders?

[smokin]

thx for e advice.... very much appreciated... i will reconsider the option... if u guys have other opinions do feel fee to share with me.. it will be a great help...

 

seriously, very little consideration is needed to grab cstay's 650. certainly it's a no brainer. most options are already in and ready for a comfortable long ride. for the price similar to a super 4, you 'll get a lot more than that. Vee may be more powerful but the wee is practical.
