[Q&A] SBF CB400 Official Q&A Thread 2009 (PLS ASK YOUR QUESTIONS HERE!)

[LXY]

Your idling speed is it? Is it that you meant? After you start the bike, observe the idle point. Vtec1 to 3 should be ard 1000~1300rpm depending. I prefer 1100~1200rpm. After warm up is diff so dun set too high. If keep dying set high and wait for 3~5 mins and let it settle, check the rpm and re-adjust accordingly but becareful not to burn your hand. If unsure or still cannot safer to bring to motortiam. Do you smell alot of petrol fumes ard your bike?

 

i search online, is something to do with fuel cork, it resist the flow of petrol into the carb even though i increase the idling rpm.. keep stalling!!

No i nv smell of petrol around my bike.

If your carbs are starved off fuel..check your vacuum tube. The small little one that links from your engine block on the left to your fuel kock. See if it's harden and cracked due to plling off by piler when the tank has to be taken off each time. The join end may be cracked, swelled or 'puntured' by plier grip. If it is, its not pumping or sucking enough for the fuel kock diaphgram. Just have it replace.. but don't use too long a hose for it.

ah pek. i managed to find out how to remove the tail le. besides the screws there is like a "button" catch above the signal lamp which needs to be pulled out before you can take out the tail.

 

then i looked at the harness after removing the tail, it is only connecting to the rear signal lights. so i cant connect my alarm to that part of the harness. need to find the part to spice to, probably before the signal relay so that my alarm can trigger both front and rear signal lights tgt. do you think you can help with that?

nope never encounter before. the bike still can ride huh? just to check. did you wrote in heavy rain or just washed your bike recently? maybe water has gotten to the circuit board and it is shorting the circuits. or have you removed your tank recently too?

PGM-FI is all about electronics. and there is some connection under the tank. when you remove it, you have to remove the cables first otherwise it will snap. i was also told not to direct water directly under the tank area, in case water gets into those connection then FI-GG. i dunno what is wrong with your bike, as i have no experience in this, only can give some troubleshooting ideas mentioned above. according to the manual, if the PGM-FI indicator lights up, you should head to the nearest Honda Dealer asap. i suggest you do so. dont ride elsewhere anymore. later booomzz..

Mine also got this key bent problem. When you turn to open, twist more over to the right then pull up and not at the center position. I hope you get my point. Abit hard to explain

I made mine long time ago at one locksmith shop beside regina.

It's a small small shop.

Bros,

 

just now went JB just after noon to wash bike and pump petrol, At the Malaysian counter I almost rode off, luckily I checked the white card was not there and reminded the officer. Think she wanted to sabo me.

 

When heading back SG checkpoint, I was stopped by the police at the custom clearance, never on headlight, went to the office, the white Sergeant uniform officer with his medals of years service badges was holding a cigerette in his hand was smoking. He told me the summon was RM 100 and was preparing to write the summon. And I told him I only got SGD $22. And he said $20 ok and reminded me to on my headlight on 24 hours in MY and he returned me back my license. I notice he placed the $20 on the drawer and close back.

 

Haha power!!!
