hiya to u guys :) join u guys next time

 

Yes please join us. Btw, there were 4 Tmax riders last night at the DAM. Chili was riding his Ducati Liberty 200 with dry clutch instead of his usual, Helmetbox and me were the 2 black ones you saw and later came Thinker on the matte blue max. Oh yeah, and not forgetting the MT-01 who was with us too. Meet up was kind of impromptu so please forgive me if i didn't text the rest of the guys.

Have bike will wheelie!

woah. whats after the tmax?

 

anyway, i've just installed the j costa standard version on my tmax.... very significant improvement.

these are the what I had before putting on the new variator:

1. malossi mid hardness clutch spring

2. malossi mid hardness torque spring

3. malossi air filter

4. 50% majesty rollers (lighter)

 

previously, when using all majesty rollers, the drive was too light, and not too nice to ride. by having a 50% mix, the ride was actually getting much better

 

but, with the j costa variator, the low end was boosted alot.

previously with the above mentioned settings, the move off (from still) rpm was around 2.4k rpm. right now, it is ard 3.1k rpm. (stock is 2k rpm). According to other online reviews, if all else is stock, the move off rpm with just the jcosta should be 2.5krpm.

 

so, with a higher move off rpm, there's a very strong surge if I turn the throttle more. I almost believe it could do a wheelie. but anyway, straight from 0kmh to 110kmh, the acceleration is very good, and I could feel the engine tighter and stronger. Very great improvements from my previous setup. When I installed my Polini on my Silverwing previously, I couldn't even feel so much difference.

 

But, something gotta give... once the bike hit 140kmh at 6k rpm... both speedometer and tachno stopped... But I was sure I'm still accelerating.. Apparently it's a common issue with J costa though. Gotta do more research abt it...

 

Damn, now I'm tempted to change to an aftermarket exhaust to improve it further......

 

Hey Zes, i just got my J Costa (Non-Race version) installed yesterday and you are totally right. I'm really loving it. As far as i'm concerned, the "love" is not so much for the new found power boost but more for the ridding of the little annoying bits that used to bother me with the stock variator. I went rounding for a bit to familiarize myself with the changes and the below is what i have learnt.

 

- Engine braking was reduced significantly. I need to relearn the distance it takes for the bike to come to a halt that i was previously accustomed to.

- The 0-30km lag was gone. Power was linear throughout from 0-100km. Significant boost on the low end.

- Move off RPM increased from the usual 2k to 2.5k. I guess the 500 extra rpm you are getting is the result of the Malossi clutch spring.

- The "kok" sound was totally gone when you open your throttle quickly while cruising at low speeds with the clutch disengaged.

 

For the time being, i can't comment if there is a difference in the fuel consumption or a drop in the top speed. However, i will update again once i get the chance to do so.
