ur bearing need to be replaced, but it might be ur wheel bearing too, when u ride straight, ur bike moving straight or???

 

white smoke? some factors: leaking gaskets, dirty carburetor

after u rode for a distance, still got white smoke?

Besides what SparkerS1 mentioned..like to add the following"

 

* White smoke : possible that one or more of your piston oil ring may have just worn out of specs.

 

* Handle going left right : High possibility that your suspension is out of balance as in alignment out due to accident before. Need to do pressing. If you have handle bar balancer, take them off and try without it and see if it still as bad.

when i ride straight at low speed my bike tend to move to left or right abit but still can control from the handlebar to make it go straight, but when high speed it doesn't.

 

for white smoke, it cant be dirty carburetor cos i jus service, might be leaking gaskets but after i rode a distance theres no white smoke le

I guess you do not have much choice. At the same time, valves grinding be done as well. Then again, if you are riding and the white smoke is not intense..or just occasional, guess you can live with it for awhile and start saving.

 

Its not that expansive to change the fork oil and have your fork press. But b4 finalising anything, best to have the mech verify it first in case, its just cone bearing problem or just simply uneven tyres wear. Ban Hong can give you a free check on that. Look for Mr Tee and tell them Ah Pek asked you to see them for advise.

Sorry..don't have the exact address. Its along AMK Ave 3, Industrial Park 2, along AMK Ave 3 towards Hougang..when you see a Caltex station, turn into the left before the station and that's AMK Industrial pk2..go on in straight and turn into the third lane..make a u turn midway (one way)..you have it in the middle of row of workshop. You may want your finger to do the walking a bit.

it helps, but u need to re-jet/tune ur carburettor too, put the PA last, feel the bike first.
