Hmm... just noticed a new MO for Pivot Mega Raizin Voltage Stabilizer, going at $38. * Actual price would be $150++?

Wah, even cheaper than my standard Blue Raizin.

Anyway, mine is already 4 years old. For $38, I don't mind a replacement.

But hor, must also view the product 1st. Worried later it melt my circuit...

what do you think of this conversation... extracted from the MO thread without alteration.

Hi bro, is it the original stuff?

Reply by pm. Hope to hear good news from u.

 

my 0.0002c view is... if original still need to PM meh

 

 

there're some info about capacitor products at tech corner

post #64 * Capacitor Based Add-Ons & Multi-Point Grounding

 

before we even think about whether such add-ons work or not, it is good to note that there're many "compatibles" in the market for all sorts of brands, not just raizin.

http://pivotjp.com/imitation/imitation_raizin-e.html

not sure but i think the 3 "fake differences" can be easily overcome but wannabes.

 

fact is you could build your own if you know electrics sufficiently, materials such as IC, capacitors, etc could be purchased at sim lim or internet

original stiff stuff? no need PM you la... chiong one la

 

 

here's what i think about chiong stuffs...

 

* if the quality of materials used (e.g. capacitors, IC) are reasonably good, then no worries of whether chiong or authentic. for all you know, the chiong ones may be coming out from the same factory using the same components as the "originals". mainland is full of such stories.

* but if the chiong ones are using low quality components to minimise production costs in order to sustain their profit margin, then jialat liow. VS spoiling is a small thing, we're screwed if it also cause damage to the bikes circuit or system.

* btw, cost of building the unit is very cheap; capacitors, ic, plastic case, wires, LED display, etc. we pay lots to pivot-raizin for their marketing and "technology".

 

imo

Just went rev tec first launch and I paid 90 dollars for that, after one year, opened it up and see, it just some capacity and realised that I'm paying many fold above the cost..

[anodise57]

Consumer perception of the brand and reliability ?

Brake pads should be same for both discs. Just the mounting of the caliper is higher on bigger disc.

Went to do my EO change on Monday. asked ah choong about the 10w40 engine oil for final gear. he asked me to trust him la use gear oil.

 

faint....... how ah?

 

 

Haha. He don't know you....

 

Most would insist to use/buy 3 bottles of 10W40:

2.2L for Engine (with oil filter change) and 0.320L for gear.

Can keep the balance for next change.

 

Mine more complicated because I used diff EO for engine and gear.

 

Few days ago i went to BS. I talk to the Guy in charge for the motorcycle section side.

I did ask him to check with the Japan side regarding the use of10W40 eo for the gear as indicated in the owners manual. He said he would email them regarding this.

But as we speak he told me that the gear need to use a heavier oil for the gear as indicated in their workshop manual that is given to them from Honda Japan. He also mention most probably the owners manual may have typo errors bcos these manual are given to 3rd party for printing n publishing...

 

What say u guys?
