[vyruz]

bro vyruz i tot you were going to NZ at the end of the year?

 

Yea matey, I will begin moving personal belongings by end of Dec and Jan next year. I found out my lease on my apartment expires only in Mar, so I can do a slow move as opposed to rushing all in Mar.

 

If you're asking why do a Class 2A when I don't plan on staying here permanently, it's because I'm without wheels at the moment and kinda miss being on two wheels Plus I figure I need experience on an in-between class bike (SSDC uses the CB400 Revo, which I think is something like 52hp) before converting my SG licence into a full NZ bike licence and getting my 848 Evo

Hey gurus, need to ask bout premix ratio, do i just follow what is on the bottle or is there any form of calculation i need to do? Converting soon after my fuel finish which like tomorrow next is i notice, if im like below 7k rpm and i shift up to 6th from 5th gear, my bike tends to slow down slowly, could that be a sign of clutch plate wear/slipping?

 

Pointers are extremely appreciated bros. Thanks!

hi bro..i myself just started on premix...frm wht gt advice frm ah seng and david...its 20ml for 1ltr of patrol...unlike a workshop at bukit merah tell me 60ml per ltr of patrol...-.-

[-dUde]

Bros have some questions..Where u get your tyres changed at? Is it true now tyre prices are all high. was quoted 360 by david for michelin tyres. Just got back frm ah seng earlier in e afternoon after there was engine leak after he replace my clutch plates...now come back still same..i wonder wht can be wrong as i thought it was e gasket nt positioned properly. I'd wanna go back to ah seng..! but then again...he only carries maxima and torco gear oil n 2t.

Maxima gearoil is good stuff. $25.

Tyres, use the Bridgestone BT003. $300 at Ah Seng. Make sure you check the date of manufacture on the tyres before installation.

Unless it's Power One tyres that David is selling for $360, dont waste your time. BT003 seems to be a favourite choice for road and track use.

I'm on them.

[whackojacko]

hi there...

 

Anyone selling their bikes? I'm looking for a good condition RS 125. Current ride: Yamaha Rxz. I may sound desperate, but i really wanna ride one so bad.

I'll prefer coi. Pls pm me if u guys knew anyone letting go.

 

Thx in advance.

That would be nice

Awesome dude! Thanks for the heads up....appreciate it.

 

Do ride safe guys.

wow...60ml per liter petrol...."great" advice... wonder which mech gave this advice.

[VisorDown]

hi, about the bridgestone bt003 tyres. what tyre size you guys get for front and rear?

tires: you have a choice between BT003RS Zr or Hr rating.... so check that as well... and power ones are great tries but if you are a track junkie.... get those... if you are on a budget and need a good set get the BT090 its reasonably priced and good... got mine for a good price due to contacts and its 1 1/2 months old.... 110./140.... ripped them apart on the track on Sunday....so buy wisely...

 

as for the leak get it thoroughly checked.... it might not be just a gasket problem.... i had seen one happen in front of my eyes.... right M3njEng??? winks... you know what i am talking about don't you....

[spark315]

For those going premix, there are 2 options:

 

Permanent or temporary

 

Permanent:

 

Simply remove all hoses, seal up the 2T inlet port on the carb, remove 2T pump mechanism, block up the gear shaft hole with resin plug.

 

Temporary:

 

You will need to disconnect the 2T hose that runs from the tank to the pump, AND the hose that runs from the 2T pump to the 2T inlet port in your carb.

 

Find a small plug or cap to seal the 2T inlet port on the side of your carb. Previously I used a toothpick and some resin to keep it in place. When you want to revert, just break the resin anchor.

 

For the larger 2T hose (tank to pump), you have a choice of draining the 2T tank or just plugging up the end of the hose. I recommend draining the 2T tank and sealing the end of the hose. This will keep unwanted stuff out of the 2T supply system when not in use.

 

When u want to go back to injector, connect 2T tank hose to 2T pump, and hose from 2T pump but not to the carb.

 

Top up 2T tank, start your engine and run it until 2T flows through the inlet hose to the tip of it.

 

Next, drain your fuel tank of premixed petrol and refill it with fresh petrol without 2T premixed into it. Connect the 2T inlet hose to the carb and it's done.

 

2T Types

 

Premix 2T

For those of you who want to use Premix 2T, do note that it is viscous (thicker/heavier/more concentrated), so please pour the 2T and petrol together into a sealed container, then SHAKE IT WELL. You must ensure that the color is evenly distributed throughout the contents. This reduces the chance of separation between the 2T and fuel.

 

Injector 2T

Those who wish to keep things simple, you can continue to use Injector 2T as it is less viscous (thinner/dissolves better) and is less likely to separate after mixing.

 

Personally I use Injector 2T because I like the convenience.

 

5 Steps to Premix Refuelling (Pre-2006 RS125):

 

1. Turn fuel tap to "OFF" position

2. Open tank cap and pour 2T into tank

3. When pumping the petrol, angle the nozzle so that the fuel stream hits the existing fuel and CHURNS THE TANK, the more agitation and foaming, the better.

4. Turn fuel tap back to "ON" or "RES" position

5. Enjoy the awesome power and smooth ride, worry-free! (Thanks to Lawrence, now isn't he nice)

 

3 Steps to Premix Refuelling (2006-2009 RS125):

 

1. Open tank cap and pour 2T into tank

2. When pumping the petrol, angle the nozzle so that the fuel stream hits the existing fuel and CHURNS THE TANK, the more agitation and foaming, the better.

3. Enjoy the awesome power and smooth ride, worry-free! (Thanks to Lawrence, now isn't he nice, should buy him lunch whenever you see him)

 

For ratios and calculations,

Litre of 2T : Litre of Petrol

1:20 means 1 litre of 2T to 20 litres of petrol

Also means 1 litre of petrol requires 50ml of 2T

 

1:20 - racing

1:30 - racing

1:40 - race/street

1:50 - street/race (safe and convenient in terms of calculation) 1 litre of petrol : 20ml of 2T

1:60 - street (still safe depending on 2T type)

1:70 - nearly smoke-free (may not be suitable for some newbies)

1:80 - NOT RECOMMENDED (use at your own risk)

 

I currently use 1:80 (1L of petrol to 12ml of 2T), hence I have very minimal smoke on start up, minimal carbon build-up on my valve (cleaned twice a year) and spark plug (changed once a year), and no oil at my exhaust tip. This also greatly depends on your carburetion, which I will save for another day when I'm in a good mood.

 

Have fun, people.

 

Thank you so very much for the educational info for newbies like me....

And wht did u see right infront of your eyes?!

[Sub Zero]

hi, about the bridgestone bt003 tyres. what tyre size you guys get for front and rear?

 

Standard sizes are 110/70 for front, and 150/60 for the rear. BT003 is the successor to BT090, you decide which is better.

[marsbar]

Hey guys, i'm new here. I wanna ask when you guys go for your annual inspection, for gianelli silencer users, do we have to bring those relevant certs of your exhaust pipe? if lost it, any idea where to recover it? thanks in advance.

thx bro, i'll surely try out the bt003. how much did ah seng quote you??

[hotfudg3]

hey bros, im interested in getting e rs125secong hand from a fellow sbf rider. wud like to know first how much is the insurance for third party 22 yrs old p-plate. maybe got some of u riders swee swee like me 22 yrs old p-plate so u can give a pretty accurate quote. currently for my sp im paying abt $800. if its abt thr i go get myself an rs125. hehehe

[22022002]

hey bros,anyone have the HPI cDI for the rs125?any reviews?

[mesab0ogie]

hey bros,anyone have the HPI cDI for the rs125?any reviews?

 

I have. Without proper tuning/set up u wont notice any gains from the cdi. Probably the most noticeable difference is the bike will rev all the way to 12krpm with ease. Mine makes power up to 11.5krpm, on standard cdi only up to 10.5krpm.

[-dUde]

There seems to be a flatspot at 8k rpm...anyway to overcome it? Cdi plays apart?
