hi SYM88, any problem with your bike interms of the exhaust portion? how long u using it already? understand it's not street legal?

 

btw spoke to a GTS rider last nite at a petrol kisok... he was telling me that the right side panel of his bike melted becos of the heat from the exhaust, beside that, the header portion (at the bend area) "cracked" already..... he had to send for welding to get it fix.

 

Just checking if u facing the same problem....

What petrol do you use and how's the performance on the bike?

 

I have been using Caltex 95 for about 6 months and recently switched to Caltex 98. Find that the ride is smoother after the switch, when moving off.

[Juz1985]

i have being using caltex 98 with safra caltex gt 12% discount waste it good for engine also tried shell v power once the pulling power is there but lesser mileage

currently taking 2A at ssdc. ZOMG! not used to the super 4 tank and posture. MY legs feel like a cramped chicken wing cos of the position of the foot controls! i like the power but i definitely wont be upgrading to a super 4. just feels uncomfortable riding anything other than a scooter lol. ive officially been uncle nized!

Hahaha.... Yes, I am rather worried about taking 2A after my probation is over. So used to riding a scooter now. No clutch and more comfortable riding. But getting a 2A and later 2 allows for more choices of maxi-scooters.

it's a norm for scooters to feel vibration when u press the "rear"(left) brakes... esp hard enough, u wll definitely feel it....

 

Slight press already feel strong vibration . It wasn't that way before..... Last week change EO for 2nd svc , try Caltex 95 before that . Only Recently feel the strong vibration. Any wiring issue?

[zyrofillica]

when i stop at traffic light, i can feel the vibrations already. normal for me. can see my mirrors shaking. Maybe increase idling to 2k rpms will help?

[mybigshow]

guy anyone know about a accident of a sym gts rider at sengkang that area heard that the rider pass away

 

I thought I saw on Wan Bao that e accident is on CTE towards AYE? Anyway, e deceased is a 36 yrs old, riding a silver GTS as from pix on the newspaper on Sat.

 

God bless.

Stand on the left of the bike, turn the throttle, u see the caliper is it moving left and right.

the problem for him is > the bike is too heavy all the while for the pass yrs. when he is riding, the side box was sitting on the exhaust, that's the reason it crack. Side box had been taken out, hopefully problem solve, cheers

[Juz1985]

Sorry u mean Brake caliper ? How to c if standing at left of the bike?

 

No vibration when i press right brake , only when i press left brake the vibration is very strong. Rear Caliper problem ?

[habib2000]

Ive tested it ,on main stand ,when i press left brake ,no vibration . Trottle the bike ,doesn't show any abnormailty .Only when i sit on it ,at stationary position ,when i press left break , the vibration is strong.
