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

[coldblizzard]

You can go to nearby LAB there got one shop (lady) doing bike seat skin rewrapping. Can asked her to add extra foam sponge to your seat. Let her know what you need.

 

Funny figure at 13.8L..that's about 17km/L but if you used up to 15L..its easlier to estimate. 15L is the point before reserve comes in and the extra 1.2L can make the difference in total mileage on what type of route you take or how you ride.

 

Btw..have you tried using valve cleaner and follow with Green oil?..its does help. Did you done grounding with me and use Nano?

 

Oh, not yet not yet, I only changed EO with you last month. MAybe when hit 10k and i need to change again I'll do all that you mentioned. And yea I didn't use up all 15L cause scared la, hahahah.

[Ah Pek]

One moment, you give a thumbs up to what ProMX said, the next moment, you agreed that he should not say such things.

 

Scarey to me

[Ah Pek]

Oh, not yet not yet, I only changed EO with you last month. MAybe when hit 10k and i need to change again I'll do all that you mentioned. And yea I didn't use up all 15L cause scared la, hahahah.

 

have confidence lah..its somewhat proven and moreover, you pretty gentle on ur bike type.

[Guest alxfoo]

Hey not wanting to side anybody here. But i feel if u do own ppl's money and cant pay up, at least give an explaination and ask for a delay in payment or even in installments. Keeping silence all the while, make u look very guilty and make the lender feel that u r trying not to pay him on purpose.

[rockeuez]

When the day you clutch in and on first gear...the bike moves while u still holding the clutch level all way back.

 

huh? i thought in order to move in all gears other than netural gear is to clutch in mah then e bike can move?

[MrIce]

anyone know how much bikeworkz do charge for check bike and tune carb ??

[Ah Pek]

huh? i thought in order to move in all gears other than netural gear is to clutch in mah then e bike can move?

 

 

DID YOU READ THE QUESTION FIRST? That was an answer to Xstorm question about how one determine when clutch plates are worn out. Check back thread..two to three page away from here.

[MUSHA]

thats definitely the right thing to do. got money to buy bike, pump petrol, do up bike. no money to pay wad is owned. sound like the bugger who stole my side mirror.

 

Thieves deserve to be behind bars! But catching these buggers are a chore!

 

Come to think of it, since he and his friend(s) say ah pek screw up his bike becoz of whatever was done, why not let ah pek rectify it? If ah pek is a workshop, owner sure go back there and "make noise" wat~ But if ah pek doesn't even have the chance to rectify, how can ah pek solve his whatever problem????!!

 

Sometimes, it always good to C&C if one doesn't know the other at all.

 

 

PS: I don't know/see ah pek b4 except I heard his name here in SBF. Just in a neutral position.

[rossifumi_46]

Yes..do grounding, eo, x-1R, Nano, spark plus, coolant, eps..promise to pay from one date to another..now called him serveral answer phone "hello..hello"..pretend not to hear, then cut of phone..sms him to call oso never bother..pm him also never bother. Why can't he be honest and say he's broke..simple thing like that also cannot do..all this entering to end of 3rd month liao.

 

Somemore can spend $$$s on helmet, brake hose and blanja chick do Seol Garden. Let me see how long he's gonna hide.

 

He's having a LeoVince meeting and gathering at Seletar Dam on the 24th this month..likely would like to see him....heeee...x3!

 

Hi Ah Pek, so sorry to hear that you had such problems with this guy because I too had issues with him, but mine's really considered minor compared to your case.

 

Recently I've posted some bike items for sale here and I received PMs from him, making some queries regarding my items. Afterwhich he decided to deal with me by quoting a lower price that I'm selling at, and that he would close the deal 'asap' if I agree on his quoted price. As I find his price reasonable, I decided to deal with him by smsing him without any delay, since he left me his contact in his PM. However there was no reply from him after several hours, so I decided to just PM him here to express my interest of dealing with him. Again, there was no reply from him, and the funny thing is he was actively online here when I PM him so I highly doubt that he didn't receive my PM.

 

That was when I checked his iTrader status and found out that he had played a similiar stunt on another forumer here. Anyone interested to know can view the thread here --> (http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/showthread.php?p=6436671#post6436671)

 

I seriously have no idea what is this guy thinking, why is he doing this when perhaps he has no intention or money to buy it? Therefore I urged forumers who are selling their items here to be wary of him, especially when he comes to your thread, posting 'enthusiastically' and wishes to 'close' the deal with you.

 

A community forum like this are bound to have black sheeps, my case was of course really of a minor issue. But for people like Ah Pek and ldslds whose trust and kindness has been seriously taken for granted of, it is really unforgiven.

 

Sarcasm don't work on me my old friend. You're so old why not die better? Hahahaha...

 

Your comments here are simply uncalled for , this forum is for people who are passionate about bikes to share knowledge and experiences, not for you to discriminate people in regards to their age, race or nationality. Hope moderators here do take note of this guy.

[kano]

To HELL with Ah Pek! (Sorry just got to say this)...!

 

 

 

 

Recommended my friend to him, & end him did more damage. Please, if you do not know how to service or fix bike, please don't and don't act as if you are riding for 100years!

 

Your "friend claimed it did more damages, can you elaborate more wat damages had been done. Were there any witness whether Ah Pek was the one who did the servicing? Who is your friend by the way? Did your friend seek Ah Pek's help and refer back to him? Do not make false allegations that Ah Pek was the one who did the damages which u have no evidence.Get your friend to post here and not yourself. Why are you representing your friend?

 

If you think you are experience, there are other people who are more experience! Should not have recommend you to my friend. Now he blaming me. I'm not trying to be disrespect as I heard you're over 50 year old +?

 

So you trying to say that a person under 50 years old you don't show respect? This reflects what kind of a person you are.

 

 

Just wanna share this info so other people won't get affected. I know, after this post, Ah Pek supporters gonna fire me. Be it... As long as they know who they're dealing with. Peace!

 

We never know user from the other thread instigated to flame ah pek, we never know maybe its from the user. The moderator can check whether there's a duplicate account to justify these actions.

After reading so many posts about this dispute and the other one about Infernalwar, I am compelled to say the followings:

ProMX, you are only doing yourself a disservice. You claimed that your friend's bike was damaged by Ah Pek after he had done some works on it. However, you never mention who is your friend or what are the damages? How to justify? Furthermore, I believe that by not revealing the damages, Ah Pek is also unable to justify if he had really damaged your friend's bike. With this kind of unsubstantiated accusations, they will only make yourself a laughing stock to others. This clearly displayed what type of character you have. If on the other hand it is true and you can pen down those damages which Ah Pek had done to your friend's bike, then Ah Pek would have to explain to vindicate himself if he deems fit.

 

Sarcasm don't work on me my old friend. You're so old why not die better? Hahahaha...

 

This kind of curse is definitely uncalled for, especially if you are a person with a good upbringing by your parents, or is it otherwise? You have simply degraded your own dignity and integrity by that statement and it can only reflect on how your parents had brought you up all these while. Mind you that there are still others who can give you much harsher and vilified sentences compared to yours above.

 

As for Infernalwar, your honesty is very much in doubt after 3 forumers in SBF had already highlighted their bad experiences with you. Even if you are unable to pay upfront, you should maintain your image by at least working out a compromised settlement (eg: by installments) with your creditor. I believe you are still young, but if you will continue with this deception, you'll end up betraying yourself eventually because when the day comes when you are in desperation for help (financial or otherwise) and nobody will trust you, you'll have no one to turn to anymore. I hope for the sake of you and your family, you'll be able to think wisely for yourself and turn over a new leaf. You won't regret. One's integrity if tarnished, is very hard to rebuild again, not just for yourself but from your trustworthy friends.

 

As for F|rdAuZ, you should have encouraged your friend to face the truth instead of prolonging his bad habit. A true friend will not continue to mislead your buddy but will try to guide him back to the correct path in life. Otherwise, this kind of friendship is not worthy and neither will it lasts.

Thanks Musha..yah, we have never met at all or no how each other look like. Btw..this "ProMX" who made a claimed that I screwed his friend's bike, just ignore him lah..I never met him or have come across anyone I done anything for in the first place and there is no such "friend" exist I assume..its all a mocked up just trying to defame me. The more I read anything from LV..the more laugh I get and they are making a bigger fool of themselves..not sure if they ever realised that themselves.

 

To make things more evidently clear, I just help change coolant, eo, battery, perfect effective grounding..and things generally that enhance. Nothing of things internally mechanical so unlikely a bike can be screwed by such. ProMX is just a hoax..just ignore him...say things like I'm "Hell" & "Die"..and yet in bracket said he sorry he has to say that...sighhh, doesn't that sound like a person who doesn't think straight?

Wah...Rossifumi_46...never knew you into this sh*t too. I think this guy is having a row and enjoying it seen nobody dragged him into the open. Regardless of how bit or small he try cheating or stealing..a crime is a crime in the context of his action and behaviour.

 

It only came to light when someone came to me for assistance that asked if I know this chap because he wanted to buy his Auto Ignite. I I was questioning myself why he owes $$$s and still can spend $$$s not $$s. Later I learn that he spend on new brake Hell's steel hoses and helmet and visting his FB..telling ppl how much $$$$s he has in hand that same month (June) he owes and this was the period he requested for his credit to be extended to July. This person would have been the fourth victim if he were to trust him without checking with me.

 

I don't know what problems he has avoiding my calls, sms and pm messages to call me back and came 1st week of July as there was no respond from him.

 

Again my apology to the moderator of the threads here for posting such things in truth as I find there is no other way to get this person into the open and create awareness. Its not at all a defaming in proceeding but so that others can be aware of such a person and as of such matter going on, companies and him can still be happily posting in their own LV thread and hoaxing (ProMX story) to defame me.

I believe much awareness has been shown here, but what I believe in even more is that your issue with him has got to be settled, some way somehow.

 

If he still continues to ignore any form of contact that you made to him, do what you have to do, in the most effective and legally fashion. I strongly believe that nothing could contain him unless justice is being served right in front of him, making him realise exactly what wrong has he done here.

 

That is of course if you have all the necessary evidence to proof your right, if that's the case then the ball is in your court, get ready to serve and with a strong might if you need to. Good luck.

[FrdAuZ]

Wonder when this issue/post gonna stop here in this bike forum..

 

Haizzzz.............

Why are you so concern?...you are acting on the wrong side anyway. You should not be the one posting but the person himself. You getting yourself into a sh*t-hole for what?..is he a friend really worth all your effort..one that lies, steala nd intention to cheat? Sit down and think and I suggest you urself stop posting with regards to this matter..let Infernalwar speak for himself. Talking tough when you are on the wrong side is a bad move.

 

Thanks or ur pm to me just now but please..heal my advise!

[blackness]

Wonder when this issue/post gonna stop here in this bike forum..

it will end after all payments settled

There was one night about 11.30pm on a deserted stretch of PIE, i accelerated a bit more and rode at about 110km/h (gear 6, vtec on) for 10seconds, suddenly the engine died. Throttle totally no response. (Its as if i pressed on the engine kill switch. ) I quickly signal left and let the bike free wheel onto road shoulder. Turn off ignition key, and turn back on, push start, and everything back to normal. Dunno what happened though.
