You could be having the infamous pigeon sounds. Read this http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/showthread.php/325894-lt-Info-gt-Silverwing-400cc-600cc-Tech-Corner?p=6112944&viewfull=1#post6112944

 

Solution could be the new clutch bell 22100-MFT-640 @ $108

 

OMG yes it sounds like pigeons yes very loud version of pigeon thank you thank you so much finally i know whats the issue hahaha

 

Btw any long term damage if i prolong this problem?

 

And whats causing this? Wear and tear? I don't really get the post it says the GT is thicker so no pigeon sound so means the older model is thinner and wear and tear causes this?

no worries, there will be no damage on it.. as sw is quite a heavy bike, hence it requires quite a certain amount of force to grip the bell to move the bike hence the sound is produced.

the thicker bell means that the contact with the clutch is closer, hence the contact of the clutch to the bell when moving off is faster compare to the thiner bell which we are using the contact of our clutch is slightly further from our bell hence it prone to produce the pigeon sound.

simply just dun bother abt it, in few weeks time it might disappear even before u know it.. lol

Mine too... It comes and goes. Long time never see you in SGBike forums eh bigdog!

If I'm not wrong, the Hagon shocks are not serviceable. But your options are to go for the more expensive Honda original (shocks only) or Bitubo (serviceable, shock+spring). Sometimes, may be better to just take the cheaper option. Bitubo can buy 3 Hagons; so if you change Hagons every 3 years, still economical and you might sell the bike earlier along the way

 

Noted with tanx uncle:)

It's not just the SWT or GT that are using the newer clutch bell but the US FSC600 also uses the new part from 2010 onwards. For SG, it's SWT / GT from end 2010 onwards since FJS reached end-of-sales.

 

New clutch bell is a design upgrade with thicker materials, so that the resonance sounds produced from the designed clutch slippage while moving off is reduced. Clutch bell usually doesn't wear as it's clutch pad that wears off, again by design.

Some of the things scoots can do that other bikes can't... I ever strapped an umbrella to pillion handle when fetch OC after a downpour...

I think both Integra and SRV missed the basic design of a scooter - riders need to swing their legs over the seat rather than "slide in"

but how's thw wear and tear like? i bet is unable to compete with honda but power wise shld be very impressive ba!

[SW9000]

Someone is MIA... maybe too busy with his latest fitness regime (flexibility, calisthenic and interval training). At his age, not sure about endurance training though cos equipment long time no 'proper' use.

Lets hope he turns up for meeting, with or without the training buddy.

We should have bought tongka ali back for him during the last ride.

honda didn't intend it as a tru-n-tru scooter... they called it a scooting motorcycle, motor-scooter, etc. and all sorts.

 

it looks like a motorcycle mounted with scooter "head". my first impression was that the head section looks like a scaled down FJS (single headlight with hawk like pointed nose) with a reshaped SWT windshield

same engine/chassis are used for the NC700X & NC700S (naked bike).

imo, this bike doesn't meet my personal needs... some things are better when BIG; some, i prefer them smallish

 

my thoughts ... specs wise:

 

* 15L underseat storage is way too small. even with the optional 29L panniers kit, still smaller than the SW's 55L big hole

Narrow pannier kit

These hard panniers increase luggage capacity without making the Integra too wide to slip through congested city traffic. Capacity is 29 litres.

 

* small 14.1L fuel tank at 27.9km/L gives theoretical max range of abt 393km; about same as SW. to be fair, its running a 670cc vs SW's 398cc engine, 68% bigger cc.

 

* with front/rear 17" rims, i'ld expect handling to be better by lots but that'll also mean a lot more expensive tyres.

 

* rear monoshock damper system would be a good improvement for better handling. dunno if will have aftermarket shocks at later stage or not.

 

* chain-n-sprocket vs belt final drive; it's a motorcycle... whahahaha

 

* high tech DCT vs simplest of simple variator CVT poses maintenance/repair issues; wonder if anyone in singapore knows how to service it properly; BS will probably have someone trained at Honda but that means owners are kinda stuck with only 1 choice of chopper. worst, months of downtime waiting for spare parts to arrive from Japan.

 

* single front disc brake... sigh, no improvement from SW leh. good thing is, Integra is not backside heavy.

 

* seat height is 79cm, abt 6cm higher than SW's 73cm. short fellas like me will struggle with tip toes

 

* shorter wheelbase and body would help improve handling and probably easier parking at narrow places. width is about the same, 2cm wider nia.

 

* with kerb weight of 238kg, its still a rather heavy bike-scoot, about 11+kg lighter than SW though.
