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

[warrior.c.o.n.p]

it depends on your budget. got higher budget, get a new revo.

 

first hand is the best. if u want to get a 2nd hand spec3 or revo, look out for a few months back s4. maybe previous owner may sold off their bikes due to personal reason. & may still consider new but also look out for if thrs any damages.. quite risky actually. well good luck bro.

[eedwinn]

2nd hand bikes are all risky.

 

Who wouldn't want a brand new bike if there's no budget constraints?

[eedwinn]

Sure, too bad it happened on the first day of CNY!! What a thing to start the "new year".

 

Anyone knows what's the worst case scenario?

[warrior.c.o.n.p]

2nd hand bike look only for one owner. well i guess.. still a risky anyway. bike condition r much more important. hehe.. hmm... not knowing if the first owner really take care of his bike.

EO leaks can be caused by many things leh.. Oil sump, gasket, oil seal or even the nut that drains out your EO.. that's why have to wash clean and see where the leak comes from..

[audere]

Get a revo..

[Chaoz]

btw.. my bike have been leaking since the day i got it.. 1/2 yr ago.. initially very sian.. keep sending to workshop to check what's wrong and why.. slowly.. too sian until dun bother already.. coz is not really a lot.. juz have to change EO on time should be fine.

[Chaoz]

too much air pressure will save tires (last longer) but less grip, save fuel also..

 

too little air pressure will waste tires but more grip, use more fuel.. travelling with extremely deflated tires will cause a lot of wear and tear on them, the rubber compound will get overheated quickly thus making the tires un-usable. Better go find out the problem quick..

[Chaoz]

real CF pipes are not very hot.. i've touched my fren's arrow pipe on his mito and it was only warm after rides..

 

anyway my pipe wrap juz melted and burnt after my trip from msia..

[kyleong]

wah melt, which shop did you do your wrap?

my wrapping still good condition after so long

[dragonforce]

Just went to pump my tyres pressure but to no avail.

 

Was riding SP and it was only a single disc brake and pro arm so it's easy to pump with the long stick.

 

Now S4 has double disc brake and no pro arm, and the stick to pump the pressure is kinda long. I couldn't put the whole stick in.

 

Anyone can help this n00b here?? Thanks!

position your tyre correctly so that you can pump.. i dunno how to describe how to position it.. if you find it very troublesome you can buy those L shaped tyre attachments..

I would like to know if any bros out there changed the exhaust for their project big. Anyone with more info on this as i been searching but cant find the right site on modding a project big.

 

Hope to change to a legal exhaust. Please do share or let me know if my query is totally unheard of. Thanks.

[kyleong]

yeah could be the case

but where do you wrap it at?

[Chaoz]

j**z wheel..

[Stardust83]

i dunno how cool a cf exhaust is after riding.. but micron definitely isnt very hot after riding. can touch it after a ride.

 

yupz ! Agree !

I also wanted to know. But why do you need 15A?

can mod but... the project cost = buying 2nd hand full system.

[hairi007]

Hi

 

Anyone can suggest to me battery details for s4 spec1??

[dannyspider]

I also wanted to know. But why do you need 15A?

 

coz my fuse blow and i only have a spare 15A fuse..

[bryan_LaZY]

i doubt can use. 15A mean it got higher current tolerance.... if ur bike max can hold is 10Ampere, using a 15Amp fuse will burn ur circuit.

 

erm... my own opinion only, maybe can ask ard for better advice.

lolz, happy new year!

[lawbah]

Hmmm Yuasa battery lor... quite common brand and heard its not bad. Can find at most workshops.

[dragonforce]

hey bro.. i think TS is asking for exact model of s4 battery leh.. haha.. how's your cny?

 

ts, this should help, http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=219532
