hey hey, promoting tuno to a planet lover?

 

 

what's no tuning slower?

 

it's no more in production. replaced by the raptor 125 cc. almost the same with a normal exhaust instead.

[bktan]

yah man, i think pple shld mass order the tuono125, its such a good bike, and without the fairing, maintaience is damn easy.

 

planet's engine is tuned down from the mito's engine to give it more low end torque but no high end at all.

 

tuono's engine is exactly the same from the rs125's engine, no tuning down, get super rush at 8k rpm.

 

yea i saw the raptor125 on the two wheels mag, in aussie they still call it planet though, but the chrome finish and display really looks cool.

 

somehow i feel 125cc bikes are already super fast, not sure i'd like to upgrade, although everyone wants to bet wif me i sure itchy want to upgrade one. Somemore the road tax $80 nia, imagine buy 1000cc bike its $800...phew

actually the engine's not tuned down at all. for those 6 gear mitos, the engine specs is the same as the planet's.

 

but a stock planet with the header de-restricted, does about 160-165km/h for top end. i dun know the stock top end for Mito actually, so can't compare.

 

heh heh, for planet, the super rush you are talking about starts around 7500rpm.

 

the thing about both bikes is they give confidence when you take a corner. but the rear shock for both are on the soft side eh?

 

after you go 2nd link to blast the bike, the bike seems so much slower now. it's a mind thing, especially you see your buddy's R1 zoom past you at 200km/h

 

[bktan]

yea rear shock really lousy (sachs) synonym for (sux) haha, both the same brand of rear shock. When u add a pillon going up a hump also can sometimes feel as if the whole shock hit the maximum, *scary*

 

yea i guess so, i'm sure bring bike to PG track and experiencing top speed, after riding on road feel a lot of diff, like suddenly why so slow. But aiya, how often u dare to ride at 200 km/h also, honestly i'll be frank to say my balls will drop, drive car at 180km/h also feel damn scary lieow.

yeah, let's bring both bike to the track and experience the 125 italian rush!

 

i'll try to go down late april when i have more time. now very busy with lots of other stuff.

 

go up the preload, it'll feel much better. and for those 200km/h plus speeds are for not quite achievable for us, but at 160km/h, it's quite a blast. literally. planet has no front fairing.

[bktan]

haven't tried anything higher than 120 km/h yet... dun wan to jam up so soon... will try it after i hit 3k mileage...heh.

 

yea planet no front fairing, mine got a bit of sai tao, so not so bad, but still wind blow feel like flying off.

ah, try it at 2nd link after you are done enuff mileage. you'll appreciate the little head fairing you have, not that i'm complaining about mine (or the lack of it).

 

Use good 2T, plus a mocha brown plug colour, won't jam up man. go clear carbon. heh heh.

B9EGV is around the price you pay can't rem if it was selling at $10 or $11. definitely not $12.

 

BR9ES going for $3 at LAB, or Regina. standard price, no need to bargain. can't tell a difference in performance as far as i'm concerned.

[bktan]

i see..thanks a lot... 1 EGV plug can buy 4 EG...unbelievable

yes, yes! cheap huh.

good to buy a lot, do plug chop, jettings. $3 goes a long way. really can't tell the difference from BR9ES, B9EGV. jus do your gapping and it shouldn't have any difference in performance.

[bktan]

ok thnx..cheers for the tip
