hi guys, recently i just changed my tyres, now when i lift up the front wheel and spin it, it seems damn stiff, only able to spin for less than one round.. while the rear tyres can spin freely for many rounds when i spin it.. is it normal for the front tyres to be so stiff?

 

i changed to michelin sporty 90/80mm front and 110/80 rear.

i tried the method as u mentioned, notice my speedometer cable part that links to the front wheel got squeaky sound when i spin the wheel, then i read my owner manual, notice the part currently is like out of place.. sianz.. after CNY must bring back to shop and get them to fix back nicely..

 

thanks.

My previous bike was Phantom TA200, and already used to "no rpm" riding...

 

End up rev up till same as you.. :cheeky:

Manual say we shouldn't do that but, there is also a "saying" to run max capacity for the run-in and after that bike will be faster and smoother... True?

 

1st time riding sport bike, dunno the power different but the riding posture is so different!

 

Hand pain, leg pain... :slapforehead:

Guys, question for the battery and the volt usage

 

I have just installed 2 HID headlamp with switch.

 

When i just started driving in the morning, the battery is able to recharge to 14 volt with HID. However, if i switch off the HID and drive another 20km+, then i switch on the HID again, the battery has remained at 12.2volt, sometime will gradually further decrease.

 

May i know is it because of the bike will use more battery voltage when driving for longer distance?
