Aprilia Riders

But the thing about GP bikes is that usually after a race, they will swap out the top block, piston and rings.. The idea here is to keep it working nicely for about a year or so.

 

So how did you run in your bike Ng?

[WawanAprilia]

In fact, there isn't any correct way of run in a 2-stroke.

The way you found is the "safe way". The "power" way is after warming up the engine to its working temp, ride hard to let piston & ring sit perfectly to the engine cylinder wall. This will ensure engine getting its full potential out. This how & what a GP bike do. Do you see any GP bike go "running in"? That will be rare scene.....:angel: Make your own choice.....

wah ... Dun wanna take risk leh ... Piston and block aint cheap leh .. Sey Sey Sey !!

holy cow... that's a s*i* load of money!!!

 

that is a lot? Mine is $2094 only because I was a female.. this year dunno how much.. haiz.. $2094 - $1800 = $294 difference for the gender...

 

At point of time, i was turning 24, P plate.

 

This year renewal, turning 25 no P-plate.. Dunno how much less I could get.. Need to start doing my research..

[priller07]

Wow... Really ex sia... Nowadays insurance really sky-rocketing.. Mine only $700 2nd party.. Still ex to me..

[Sub Zero]

I suggest those who dont have their bikes on hire purchase to go for 3rd party and probably do it under AXA which seems to be a cheaper alternative.

For the information of those that are interested before: RS125 Race Fairings Buatan Malaysia (2006 onwards)

 

1) Made in Malaysia

2) Can be bought from Moto Milia

3) Price is ~RM 1,500 without transportation to Singapore (~S$625 or so)

4) Full set (front and rear)

5) White in color, can be spray painted on

6) Am getting further details when i pop by their show room in a week or two (eg, weight, material, ability to customize and use it for the road etc.).

 

In comparison:

1) Shark skinz costs between US$1,100 to US$1,200

2) Team HKL is checking if China made ones are available, but nothing can be guaranteed at this point in time.

 

Cheers

So how did you run in your bike Ng?

 

Yes, that is the luxury of GP team have. But why they are still not afraid of seized up the engine before the race? That is when they have correct jetting and workmanship, 2 stroke will not seized up the engine when a new block or piston is use. It is not because they have many spares. Catch the point.

 

I don't follow exact milage to run in the bike. When my bike came out from workshop, I just ride below 5K rpm, feel how the bike behave and check plug & pipe tip condition. If everything seem good, I will just ride as normal. So far so good.

[IZECUBEZ]

Thanks for the insight Ng!

 

How many days do you ride below 5K RPM? Least it will give me a good estimation. I need to prep this bike to head up to sepang with the guys in October. Lots to do, little time to do it. :|

[priller07]

Hehehe... If by the time the guys ride up to Sepang u haven't finish running in, kena tinggal. hehehe...

 

Just joking.

[IZECUBEZ]

May seem like a long way, but I'm in the midst of changing a job soon. So have to take in whatever I can ASAP.
