Aprilia Riders

[eyz]

try changing the pad 1st...

some pads doesn't fit the caliper nicely

as most pads are universal with some other bikes..

and it doesn't return back in position when ya release the brake..

if after changing the pad and the problem still persist...

then most probably is the brake pump that is giving ya the problem

the kit cost ard 80 bucks.. just for a few springs and bush...

[eyz]

try the pad "braking"

i think ya can get it at FJT or WEDA

Actually my riding style is pretty much the same as urs. I always open valve from the 2nd gear onwards cos I scared that the valve will get jam. My cruise is usually 8k rpm in whichever gears depending on the speed limits of the road. But I still get 260-280km. There was once I even hit 300km before I need to switch to reserve. The funny thing is I usually never service my bike unless something is not working. Like getting harder to hit neutral gear, time to change my gear oil etc.

Eh, you guys serious ah? Man.. I haven't opened valve since the last time we had the meet up! 6k rpm, 6th gear, 90kmh.. Then my valve how???

come come come...

time to change the carb, reed valve and exhaust...

Dont think I will do any mods on the bike Eyz..........I cant justify the $$$ to pwr ratio I get for spending that amt of money to say a bigger Cc bike...........

 

Add an Arrow.....how much more pwr do I really get?

Of course there is a difference, but this is fly by the pants of your seat kind of "dyno testing".........is $800 bucks worth 1-2 horses?

 

To each his own..........this is just my point of view.......

I agree totally, no point putting in mods if you are going to upgrade unless you're a fanatic about 2 stroke bikes, even so get a 250cc, like lawrence said, a 125 can never outrun a 250 on track.

 

But personally, i have to get an arrow because i have the stupid 5kg tin can on my bike's ass, and adding 1 or 2 HP more is quite a big deal on a 125cc bike? think bout it..

 

 

 

When kopi session again ah? call the guys soon!

:confused:

if you are talking about top speed for the new 250....i ever tried to 207,(fully stock).yet i believe it still can go slightly higher,but slowly reach the top.i dare to say its true as 3 new 250 had tested too.....same outcome,trottle off at 205-207.

to be safe about your valve,try to hit 7-8k rpm from 2nd gear onwards.....if you are worry that your speed is high at 6th gear,well...drop it to 4-5th gear to maintain the road legal speed...yup,your bike may sounds a little more noisy,but its ok....that fact about 2 stroke....weather you wack or don...it will fall sick....its the trademark about it....enjoy riding! :smile:

[xiongzzz]
