how much is the clutch plate ? and what effect does it has ?

clutch plate, you can get it changed for 100plus. for the effect, you will feel it everytime u move off or change gear, its generally smoother. only thing in my case, there's a slight pulsing feel when move off from stationary.

i think bike instructors got every say never light a fire near your bike to check if got petrol in the tank or whatever.

 

army also tells us smoke must smoke 30m away from vehicle

hiya been a while since i came here

[eyz]

gosh...

how are you, man??

be more careful next time..

thanks for sharing your experiences with us..

 

how's the damages??

and may i know long did the fire burn and how did you extinguish the

fire??

[lacrimosae]

Dude......

Why oh why did you use a lighter to check your bike?

 

I would think that naked flames shouldnt be allowed near any machine that uses highly flammable liquids for operation....

 

Perhaps you might want to keep a small torchlight in your storage compartment for such inspections in future!

 

So what's the damage for replacing your wiring and 2T hose?

Any damage to your fairings and/or other parts? Thank God the flames didnt creep up your overflow hose and blew your tank up... :giddy:

Please be more careful in future yeah? We bikers face enough hazards from killer traffic and evil Mercs....

 

LostRose,

New plates eh? heh heh...

I need also....

hmm.... paiseh, been real busy lately, no chance to check forum until i get home... which is usually 3am...

Anyway, some technical questions are out of my expertise... cant answer. But i'm sure there are other riders more experienced than me who are willing to offer you their opinion. I'm still learning about my bike too! (Arent we all?)

That's the beauty of having a forum isnt it? No one knows everything, but collectively the experience shared by all is better than a know-all mechanic....

 

See you all at the upcoming DIY!!

caught by police for wat???

 

wash n polish bike also can get caught?

 

 

 

 

btw, anyone (on bikes) got caught on a mobile speed cam b4?

was travelling at maybe 120km/hr to overtake a cab on my left.

 

den I notice 2 figures hiding in the rails on a bridge after adam road exit.

 

 

Coz so far my friend n I only heard of cars being caught, but so far nothing on bikes.

Another rumor has it that bikes cannot be captured due to it's size and components.

 

dunno which is true....

Very hard to say at this point. If you don't get any letters in about 2 weeks or so, you should be safe, dat means never get caught.

I got caught from those cams while driving, also about 2 weeks get letter.

Relax la, our speedo is not accurate, so it may not be as bad as you think.

[fibre]

maybe next time we should pretend to be ghosts and scare the hell out of those camera guys
