thank u... btw izzit normal for the bike to have black emission when revved? or is there smth wrong wif the bike?

 

it depends...the black emission could be purely carbon because the bike haven't been revved for a long time..it could also be because ur bike is burning the engine oil already..if its the latter...it can be quite bad and costly to fix

[ben2306]

Poured in only 2300 ml according to the instructions at the side of the engine...

 

The Ermmmm sound, have to hear, if the sound like mine, like bicycle brakes, possible the pads are hard.

If the sound like Eeeee like metal grinding metal, then maybe the pads gone, and the brake disc is being scratched during braking.

oh, its 2.3L? ok, i thought i saw it as 2.9L. will goconfirm again.

 

Which bike alarm you using?

i got it frm mass order. 1-way talking alarm, $60.

sounds serious... mine only come out black emission when i revved till rpm 12 @ "N" gear. normal?

[ben2306]

silent hunter, i chk mine. it reads 2900ml outside. are you sure its 2300ml?

[ben2306]

guys, g4 fuel tank how many litre??

cos yest i ran on reserve then go pump. full is only 12L+.

so how many litre b4 reserve & reserve is how many litre?

[Silent Hunter]

I go check later see if the numbers are clear, maybe the number '9' got worn away to '3' but I remember the mech pointing to the numbers besides the glass for checking the oil level and it was 2300.

 

Think the first owner got buang before.

Got deep scratches on the exhaust and fairings.

[spaiduhz]

mine reads 2900ml. its embossed next to the glass panel.

 

theres another sticker that has some words in japanese, and three figures. 2300, 2600 and 2900.

 

i am still mystefied as to what those three figures stand for.

[Silent Hunter]

Really is 2300 ml the numbers were engraved in a rectangle.

Why got double standards???

[ben2306]

maybe your bike didnt "eat" EO, its becos you poured only 2300ml...

mine cnfrm 2900ml.

silencer broken? metal shards flying around inside your endcan angrily?

 

i like to put pebbles on tong exhaust. they like noise so much, nah i make your exhaust noisier.

[ben2306]

fvck, tried to take out the exhaust but cannot pull out. :angry:

firstly the petrol tank volume is about 17L +-, secondly engine oil volume is 2.9l and thirdly ben if u wanna burn ur carbon u have to occasionally "run" the bike to its max speed.

There was this once I was "playing" with my fren who rides an R1 and we decided to "run" so my fren of cos gave me a head start. I managed to get 170km/h and my fren overtook me(of coz lah r1 sia). When we were at the coffeeshop he told me that there was a lot of black smoke and sparks coming out of my exhaust while we were "running''. My exhaust sound more clearer and felt lighter after that.

[LuckyThirteen]

btw whose g4 parts are those lying around at Ah Chong's garage? I wanna ask if the suspensions are still ok or not?

its a common problem for G4 especially when the plug set is old...during rainy days the water will get to ur plug cap...to solve this problem...u can go change the whole plug set..someone in the forum went to do that...cost him around $196 if i'm not wrong..that will solve the problem once and for all until the rubber that prevents the water from getting in corrodes

yeah...i think the tank volume is approximately 17litres too...and the number engraved on my engine oil compartment states 2.9litres...some pple might say 2.9litres is excluding changing of oil filter..if change oil filter gotta add additional amount..at least for this bike..i think its not true..coz last time i checked with guan hoe's boss..he said 2.9litres is including changing of oil filter...and i believe in his professionalism since he's the boss of suzuki authorised service centre

 

the scenario that u just mentioned happened to my G4 as well..when i first got the bike from the previous owner...there were black smoke coming out from the exhaust when i was going at around 180km/hr..after i came back from touring...can feel the difference in the exhaust sound...it sounded more powerful and the bike is more responsive

i've asked a bikeshop regarding this qns before..but apparently that person told me carbon gotta clear on our own by whacking it..and he suggested to me that i should get a bottle of FP60...then go whack the bike...not sure if other bike shop will help clear carbon for u though..but i think u can juz clear on ur own..don't need waste $$..can clear carbon in lim chu kang road...long straight road for u to whack =X

[Gr4vity]

...anybody got any lobangs for G4's K&N air filter and how much is it?
