Cool come say hi, I will be with a guy on a CBR1000 and another on a CBR600, I have white spyke 1 piece suit, surely the only one with that suit riding a Hurricane on the day

[Tortise]

 

Seeya guys tomorro...

 

Btw, I'm selling off a Nankai suit. Anybody interested can see tomorrow. If I'm riding you will see the suit. Otherwise u can go to Pit 40.

 

Condition of suit: scratched, need repairs on the knee patch. If you are not fussy/ no money to repair can still use actually. I raced with it in that condition.

 

Sellin for $150. Cash, non negotiable. If can't sell will put up as house deco coz it's my first suit.

 

Cheers!

hurriance header hav a bigger diameter compare to R model ones..

the performance improve onli slightly..

u must destrict the header for more performance..

but diff pple need diff types of performance.

cos using stock R model setting is not suitable for hurriance header..

chasis number is a serial number for yr bike frame..

u can find it on the body frame where yr handle bar are..

oh ok...somewhere along the handle bar u mean?

 

i do not quite believe bigger diameter gives greater output...reason is becos i changed my exhaust to micron. Although diameter is bigger, i find it laggy in terms of performance such as closing and opening of throttle, it does not gives u the immediate effect. Pls clear my doubts

 

Anyone here tried changing suspension for cbr400? Currently mine suspension is still stock,so when i sit on my bike, i find it very soft as if i have sit to the max of the suspension.

 

Do you guys find yr bike is noisier when it turns hotter? Its like a sandy sound "tick tick tick" when the engine is on and travelling for abt 45mins later.

 

In the morning when u start yr bike...when begin to take off...i heard something like engine knocking

as i mentioned..

the jetting must change..

stock R model is 105 size while hurriance is 108 i think.. kinda forget..

u can try buy a 2nd hand F4i rear suspension, rebuild it and replace yr existing ones.. ask rhema for that.. he had it done..

 

tick tick sound can be caused by header gasket, valve clearance..

I am using a CBR600F3 suspension. I don't know if the F4i suspension will fit. Also, I have not tried the bike with the new suspension yet because I am still in the US now. Two more weeks and I'll be back.

 

You may not have to rebuild the suspension, depending on the spring rate. For example, I got lucky because the spring rate of the stock F3 suspension spring is the correct rate for me. However, that means that for most people, the spring will be too soft because I am extremely lightweight.

 

But one thing for sure is that the F3 suspension will be longer than the stock by 20mm and will raise your rear ride height. This will load the front more and may make the bike less stable during heavy braking or hard acceleration. If it becomes a problem, you will need a steering damper.

 

I am also using a Hurricane header. The improvement is minimal. However I don't quite know how to de-restrict the header. I heard you need to cut out the collector part, remove all the baffles inside, and reweld it back on. I may try that after I pass my bike inspection with the new GPR exhaust. Also, you need to re-jet the carbs. 108-110 is the normal range.

 

Tick tick sound is normal if it's very soft. Even after replacing the head gasket and doing valve clearance, my bike still had that sound.

 

Hope that helped.

Hi guys, hope i'm in the right group this time, i was told to post my question on this site for with others.

 

How much does it cost for a cbr 400 cc rr nowadays? COE renew till 2013 FL Plate.

[Zer0]

Went down to PG on Sunday, was good fun, first extended trip on my CBR and first decent high speed run. Turned up a few issues I need to address before heading back over again.

 

Need to change my gearing as while it is fantastic on the track its crap for the hwy ride up there, revving to high on the hwy is annoying (I currently have 1 tooth down on the front and 2 up on the back). Probably change back to stock gearing for the next trip and see how that goes on the hwy and find the best trade off!

 

Also I recently fitted a full race system but have not had the bike rejetted and it ran like a pile of crap over about 9k rpm, no power at all and very flat, very slow to rev out and hesitant like it wants to go but can't. I presume this is because its running too lean on stock jetting with a full system, also it was causing the bike to get very hot when I kept the throttle pinned and tried to rev it out anyway.

 

So off to get rejetted and change my sprockets before the next trip. Was fun though, got a knee down again which I haven't done for a while (just been commuting for the last 1.5 years), found it quite an interesting track with all the banking on the corners and hills, quite different than the track I am used to but good fun.

Hi anyone own this Bike before? I just bought this bike last week, what i experience is , when i reach 100km/hr, there is vibration on the throttle, is something wrong with the engine? or normal due to the tyre vibration on roads.Hope it won't give me much problem other than this, coz i'm a safe rider.

[jeriwajac]

hey, if u guys going 2nd link to pump petrol, can call me along also...

no: 91441545

Aiya, you bought it already? How much did you pay, and where did you buy from?

 

Vibration is normal at certain speeds. However I suggest you bring the bike for a checkup. Personally I go to K&T at Ubi.
