here comes the first problem of my bike..

something very wrong.

170km and i;ve to switch to Reserve.

I've opened up the cap, i could still see quite a lot of petrol.

Maybe later go pump to full tank.. see how much litres can be filled it.

Suspect my bike drinking petrol like water..

P.S: Reserve is just switching the knob to the middle right?

Nike - Just do it!

IIRC,

when seated on the bikey,

tap switch positions:

down is normal operation, forward is reserve and back is prime

 

when looking at the switch directly:

6 o'clock - normal operation

9 o'clock - reserve

3 o'clock - prime

Reserve its da arrow pointing 9 o clock 1. If u see it nearer.. its label RES - reserve .( 9 o clock ) ON - normal (6 o clock) And..... forgot da 3 letter word liao.. its like PRB or something ( 3 o clock )

yeap. Can;t get it wrong for the reserve postion i guess since its in the middle.

tink you are abit confused here.......when your tap pointing down means you are at normal(ie open) when the tap points to the front of ur bike it means reserve n when point to the back of your bike it means prime.....there is an arrow on you black tap switch .

Guys, how does the DOHC system work for the suzuki gsx 400r? and how does the VVC work?.:confused:

Double Overhead Cam

A double overhead cam engine has two cams per head. So inline engines have two cams, and V engines have four. Usually, double overhead cams are used on engines with four or more valves per cylinder -- a single camshaft simply cannot fit enough cam lobes to actuate all of those valves.

The main reason to use double overhead cams is to allow for more intake and exhaust valves. More valves means that intake and exhaust gases can flow more freely because there are more openings for them to flow through. This increases the power of the engine.

 

:btw: what is VVC ar?

btw, i'm curious, what's the "PRIME" switch for?

If I'm not wrong, it allow "free flow" of petrol to your carb... even when engine is not on.

 

If u point it face down, the petrol will not flow into the carb if u nv start your bike...

Thanx roger.

Anyway, my fuel cork was faulty. Explains why it hit reserve so quickly. Travelled only 170km only and bike starts jerking, switch reserve it won't work. DAMN. had to buy a tin from petrol station to refuel my bike.

Rode down to motorshop.. Lucky there was a 2nd hand fuel cork from a scraped GSXR.

Will monitor my milage per litre now.. if it still hits reserve at 170km.. something is damn wrong with my bike..

Variable Valve Control - This exclusive SUZUKI feature is to provide the low-end to mid-range torque needed. An aggressive camshaft profile is capable of delivering more HP. Adjusting intake valve timing boosts engine output to deliver the strongest possible acceleration.

 

Correct me if i'm wrong.....:sweat:
