btw peeps, can i say below equation is correct?

 

engine makan engine oil (by more than half) + occassional loud pop from exhaust= time to overhaul= burn big hole in pocket?

 

engine makan engine oil... how many km did you run when the oil is half-eaten? if you are left with half when you have ran only 2000km then your piston ring is probably damaged... if that is the case then you are staring in the face of a very light wallet...

 

loud pop... thats backfire... your carb needs a little fine tuning... right now its a little rich... probably...

Hope it's just a worn engine gasket and not because of worn engine parts....

Anyone can ride a bike. Being a biker, is a state of mind.

If anyone wanna use your handphone For navigation. I got a solution for you to mount on handle bar.... Just leather pouch and cable tie needed....

 

Excluding handphone with slide out keyboards...

 

which handphone has the BEST gps interface?

Doubt that many ppl can answer that qn, coz never tried ALL the handphone GPS, so wouldn't know which is BEST. :p

 

Anyways, if you decide to proceed on that path (using handphone GPS), do note that typical handphone GPS units will have problem locking on to satellite signal when you're on the move. And by lock on, I mean triangulation via GPS satellites, cellular network based locationing not counted.

Parallel Import ;) No local warranty+support from Garmin, the last Fair at Suntec I saw many buying from PI then they refunded after they went few more stalls down and realised the AD for Garmin is there instead.

curious to how u measure the depreciation. I would suggest changing the gaskets first instead of the overhaul.
