Bros,any idea where is the 4 spark plugs located?I lift up the gas tank and put by the side but still figuring out where is the 4 spark plugs located..Did my eo and oil filter changed but spark plugs wa per cher tau..Haha..Appreciate yr kind advise.Cheers

Bro, u can go f**k the mechanic. Obviously dumb ass mechanic. Suspension will move up and down, on the pivot - so obviously, this particular rack that he gave you is INCOMPATIBLE with your current set up. I also have a GIVI rack but my design is not as low as yours. It goes along the upper part of the side fairing, thus ensuring no problems with the suspension.

 

Demand an exchange to a compatible rack. There are many designs available, even within GIVI, to suit whatever set up you have.

 

Bro. What rack model you using that runs above the side fairing? Care to share?

Once you remove the tank. Is located at the front. You can see the plug cables quite clearly.

Every 5k, i'd change eo,oil filter,spark plugs,top up/flush coolant. If u want to save money then 5k change eo and top up coolant only. 10k can do for my first recommendation.

You probably need to clean the contact point for the buttons.

Changing header gaskets does help since you've never change before. I've got the same problem as you with my vtec 2 but after changing Ah Pek's special eo and coolant and also I've bought a magnet thingy for the fuel line from bro ekacht my fc improve (320km before reserve).

Check your eo level, could be your battery, spark plugs or even your engine switch is off.

Cb 400 Version with Spec 1-2 signal lights ( with running light always on ) can pass inspection? Consider illegal as original Version S doesn't comes with such signal lights ? Pls advise.
