Hey peeps,

 

I just came back from my ride and I noticed a boiling sound that seemingly came from under the seat when I turned off the engine. The radiator fan did not turn on. The ride was about 20 mins long. Everything functioned well. Is this normal?

Check ur coolant Reservoir for the level of ur coolant.

Hey guys, just bought a spec1 2 months back and everything about the bike is fine. But the bike give me prob on low fuel. When the bike is in 1 bar and reserve to and fro, at a certain point of time, my bike will have no power and will die as though the petrol finish. When i check the tank, i could still see there us some petrol left. Anyone noe or experience b4? Feels like the bike is choking and even the exhaust sound change! Anyone?

short yr fan switch to body as gnd to check yr fan working or not.

maybe the temperature haven't reach the certain level of the thermostat to trigger on yr radiator fan.

boiling sound under seat, i kanna once my reserve coolant tank boils until coolant leak out from the top black hose until the floor have a patch of coolant. i monitoring for 1year plus, luckily didn't happen again.

 

just to share

But this only happens when on low petrol. It gt nothing to do with engine right? Just confused really.

best to cfm with yr mechanics.

to me, I dont think is related to yr engine.

something like not enough pressure suction to suck the petrol into combustion chamber.

hi, will cone bearing affect the way when cornering/turning? anyone care to explain signs of a faulty cone bearing?

[herong]

Hi, have some probs with my bike, i find it hard to start it in the morning, crank for very long but doesn't start. Once started liao after awhile it will just stall. will carry on for 2 or 3 times before it idles normally. Happens during cold start. Does anyone has any idea?

During corner or handling at low speed, you will feel more difficult to handle and more vibration

get yr carb service and tune..

[LXY]

does anyone experience handle vibrate (is not bouncing that kind) vigorously during front braking only at between 60-80km/h?

I can't figure out what is the problem after changing new tyre+balancing, wheel bearing, brake disc, front pressure 240kpa.

thank you v much.

hi guys, need your advise.

 

The voltage shown on my voltmeter when the bike is idle is 11.6V and when moving is 12.7V...but it never ever went pass 13~14V, anyone know why??

 

could it be due to rectifier?

Ur installed voltmeter may be screwed!...check with a proper voltmeter.

hey bros, i just got myself a revo from bike production.

e bike is great but now e only thing is they still holding on to my ic. they returned me my driving license tho. they say some paperwork still not finalised yet? lol. but i collected my bike oredi. they gave me e insurance paper and the invoice of buying e bike. they say once e official papers are ready, then they will call me up to collect from them.

so they hold on to my ic is safe? is it normal? its been abt 2 days already.

[hotfudg3]

oh yes and another thing, they only gave me one key cos they said previous owner gave them one key only. bike not under installment. since revo has the HISS system, may i noe whr to go to duplicate the key? and roughly how much will it cost? thanks!
