Get Givi loh. Much taller than original.

If use airflow, can adjust height to suit rider or pillion.

[Prawntoe]

I did a combination of things on top of the 24K "full service".

So not too sure about exact price for just the roller and belt.

 

Pls call AC he will tell you the price. Friendly guy easy to work with !!

Any one has crashbar on the bike? Just realise the rear fairing is pretty wide and if i drop my bike I dont want the fairing to bear the brunt of it.

 

I rmbr seeing some vespa with crashbar surrounding the fairing.

 

Im assuming the fairings arent easy to find and are costly.

[Darky_80]

Lao jiaos. Need your help.

 

Just now after work I notice there was a small patch of oil near the left side of the rear tyres. The oil was dripping from directly below the CVT cover.

It starts dripping once i turn on the engine and stops once I turned it off.

There were absolutely no leak before servicing as my carpark is those white cement floor. I touch the oil and it felt thin, doesnt seem like engine oil and its a little reddish.

 

Dont know if Ah chong didnt tighten the oil drain plug or is it an overflow from some breather hose?.

[SW9000]

The oil drain is the little nut in the center of the picture. Looks ok.

 

Need to open up the belt compartment to see.

Possibly the oil seal, either at the drive side (which is common for wear and tear after 70k km) or the driven side shaft for the clutch (less chance).

 

Please call ACM at abt 10am. He should wake up by then. He might visit your place if he could or if your bike can move, ride to the shop.

No need to feel shy telling him the problem.

Hi all... experiencing some "issues" my 7 mths old sw.

 

When i park it my bike for about 10 to 30mins and start the ignition. It takes some effort to crank, however when i start my bike every morning (parking for mre than 6 to 8hrs) it can start easily without much effort.

 

Please advice. Thanks

Spot on brother. It was the drive shaft oil seal which was leaking and yes my mileage is at 73k km. A.C said the seal might have harden and the full servicing few days back might have caused the seal to leak.

 

I wonder if common seal failure is because at above 70k most of us would have done a major servicing by then and the mechanics most likely uses an impact wrench to remove the drive face to access the rollers. This vibration from the imact wrench causes the seal to work itself loose temporary and being an old seal it loses its ability to "return to shape" and reseal 100%. Hence my drive shaft seal failing only after full servicing.

 

A.C didnt have stock but he personally rode out to get the seal from other shop immediately although he was working alone today and had 1 customer after me. Pretty sure other shop would have ask me leave the bike there and collect some other day. He even helped me solve some wiring issues FOC.

 

Thumbs up for A.C again.

 

Knowledge+workmanship+patience+ good customer service.

That seal have to handle the heat of the engine.

I do belt compartment servicing on my own regularly and only changed my oil seal at about 130k km.

You can't predict when the material will fail but 70k range is quite ok.

You going?

It's between my 2 rides.... can only confirm later after NDP.

[Darky_80]

Just repositioned my iu to my right glove compartment.looks cleaner now.

 

Is is it possible to remove the left glove compartment without removing the head cowling? I want to acess and rewire the 12v cigarette socket to ignition as by default its wired straight to battery and permanently on which will drain my battery if I leave any gadgets charging after I turn off ignition.

Mine was orange v light.

 

Its to indicate that its time to change the belt etc. This light is mileage base and will light up every 24k km.

 

Some kakis who do their own routine servicing and checks will reset the warning light but If you don't then bring to shop to change belt roller etc.

 

Although Ah chong told me the belt can last 50k km. Thats like a damn long time.

that kind of range only suitable for local riding, strongly not advisable if you plan to ride into boleh land.
