Hi Rikk,

 

For a carb there are 2 jets:

1) Main Jet(1/4-full throttle)

2) Pilot Jet(0-1/4 throttle)

 

Pilot jets screws are in the carbs... BUT know tt it can b easily reach with a small '+' screw drivers..

 

Put it on main stand, look at the carbs from underneath and u should see 4 tubular putrusion where the 4 screw are.

 

No need to open anything.

 

When it is excessively lean the engine runs really hot, and this being an oil cool bike degenerates the engine oil quickily. Hence IMHO slightly rich is something most would rather, with the colours of the plugs as the best guide to how 'rich' it is... After that it might be a good idea to ask them to do the carb sync as well...

 

Take good care when fiddling with the settings. Else bring this to any shop and most would be able to do it for a fee.

 

For the top end sluggishness, consider the fact that aerodynamic drag is proportional to velocity CUBE.. Try removing a few of the accessories with the most drag and you'd definately feel the difference.

 

Cheers!

Wah...damn chim...

Has done 220miles before reserve lights came out not exceeding or maintening below 4.5rpm. between 200 to 210 miles is quite a norm for me, i travel from TPE to CTE & to PIE, usually almost 18.5 litres before the reserve light lighted. full tank is 22.5ltr. May be due to my soft riding style. Still very satisfy with its endurance & durability since bought in yr 2000. Still no major repair, has yet to scychronise my engine or change my fork oil, may be is time to!!

I am also a relax rider, did my fork oil change in 1st year, cos original too light wt. Syn my carbs 3rd year, technically carb syn shld be every 2 years i think or on mileage. Now its my 5th year, thinking got pple regrease all the moving parts or not? Especially the rear mono-shock suspension, how to do it?

 

BTW, my last startup problem was becos of weak battery, even if the horn loud & strong lights, doesnt mean battery is good enuff to crank our engines. The original battery lasted me 4 years, only charged once on 2nd year, now confirm gone case, have to buy a replacement. I bought a brand new one and it starts right away!

 

Now i think with my riding style, this baby can last 15 years without significant drop in performance, until the last 5 years, i give it a 600cc performance level with equivalent technology.

The silver belly-pan look perfect on my black divvy, blends well into the colour of the engine n exhaust, just worth a second look. thanks Casper4XXX.

 

If swift is not buying your braided hoses, then i will be next on the queue.

"....thinking got pple regrease all the moving parts or not? Especially the rear mono-shock suspension, how to do it?" indeed a good question!!!! i will still ride on this baby till it wanna to give up on me.

[Rikk]

So cheap?

I got my front pair at S$190 from Everbright and rear S$80 from Motoworld previously.

Is HEL same grade as Swage? Or did steel braided brake hoses get cheaper recently? Or I kena conned?
