[Discussion] Super Four General Enquiry Thread

[azl-128]

I am experiencing this problem right now. I can't e-start my bike and the only way is to push start it. When I am able to start it, I have to keep "playing" with the throttle and not let go of it else the bike will die again. And somehow, the exhaust seems to sound different and I can smell the petrol much easier. So what's the problem here?

 

I'm using Spec 1. The fuel is still half. My signal light all works but can it be because of battery?

smell petrol? is it overflow? when you start is no cranking or crank liao cannot start. no cranking means batt flat which can be due to alot of factors lor. Push start faster go bike shop that you trust and get it fix. If go to a shop you dunno be prepare to kena chop carrot head or really no choice go the nearest and seek their advise and prices before let them operate. They open up, stop you from leaving and slowly slowly chop carrot head. If just bought from bikeshop call them to tow and bring to repair if still under warranty. Good luck

Forget them all..don't find them comfortable after awhile...myelf is using Vtec 3 one now and changing it too. I seen quite a number of riders using those of the BMW's one..and I tried it, felt so "full"..soft and comfortable. Have to go to the Bukit Timah BMW bkie showroom there to buy..about $20 or so.

It might be a chance that the battery is flat or the other factor is that my spark plug need to be changed. That's what my dad says. Gonna go to a bike shop tomorrow.

Hi guys i just got a super 4 spec1 recently. The bike is pretty good so far except that it heats up very fast. The trip of about 20km i can already feel the heat on my leg. Is that normal? Hope you guys here can advice.

Hard to tell how hot is hot base on your description but did the radiator fan cuts on or temperature light indictor shows? This is a 100cc percyclinder bike and there are four of them and usually is hot if you are comparing it to a Class2A bike.

[entity66]

Hi ah pek, hot till my knee cannot grip the side when i wearing bermudas. It burning hot that cant touch even. I ask the bike shop but they say its normal which i seriously have doubts. Currently the meter cannot see the temp as its not working, still waiting for the stock to come for them to change for me. Hope you can give me some suggestion.

I see..btw, u did not mentioned wheather your fan has cut on or not and base on the 'hotness' u describe..sound like it should unless your fan switch sensor is out of function. Your fan itself can be faulty too.There could be blockage due to rust in your cooling system likely.

 

I suggest u have the fan grounded and check if it works and if it does..could be thermostat or radiator fan switch problem. Nonetheless, you have to check your coolant for proper colouration and condition. If the bike is still under warranty by the shop..have them rectified these problems..every cent for a good safe ride comes from your $s. If you need help, just pm me. I don't post ehre often but mostly at the non-vtec thread.

[entity66]

alrite i really appreciate it. i think i will go back and tok to them again since its still under warranty. just needed some assurance tt i am not being paranoid abt it. thanks a million!

Hi guys,

 

I'm having a little trouble with my spec 2. I can seem to start my bike when its in another gear other then neutral. I've already pulled in the clutch and side stand was up. I can only start my bike when its in neutral. I only realised this recently because i stalled my bike at a traffic light and i couldn't start my bike until i kicked it into neutral then pushed the damn starter. I didn't have this problem few months back because i remembered I used to have started the bike in other gears with the clutch pulled in. Please help.
