[ice_concept]

2010 and 2011 r1 wat's e diff br0s?

c0semtic?

engine-wise?

[Muskal]

Which shop would you recommend? Thinking of doing my servicing in the next time round but have no preference other than planet mtrs. I only traveled about 1.3km and my engine oil turned dark. So fast. Hard to shift the gears are some indicators as well. Any recommendations of good engine oil? Considering Motul at the moment.

 

i usually go to unique or tachyon to chge oil. tachyon i use bell ray. hmm planning to chge engine oil soon at unique. mite wanna try maxima or motul.. hw abt adding engine treatment as well bro? hmm

Ytd nite while riding home from work heard a loud crack noise n found out tat my swing arm chain support bracket actually cracked into 2 pieces...

oh main thing is that u are safe as what fly24leo has said ... main thing why it snapped is cause your chain is too loose i think

No lah not my chain loose, remember our last outing i did show to u the bracket on the swing arm tat had a minor crack but i managed to stick it back with epoxy. It did last for a few months but i think gana hit by some small debris on the road tat broke it.

 

Called yamaha hong leong n they told me got no stocks but i managed to get it at Auto Machinery at rowell road. Only left 3 in sin n luckily 45 bucks only. Hvnt replace yet but will try to do it myself if it is not tat difficult

yup original chain is the best cause 1) its X ring DID 2) its without those locking mechanicism which will drop off if the mechanic did not install it properly, cause chains to snap and fly off.

 

I believe alot of us has come across in singapore roads that sometimes we see chains lying around in the middle of the road out of nowhere? Imagine wacking down NSHW at over 200km/h when that happens :giddy:

well other than very busy is still very busy

 

outing to kulai i think may have to put on hold for another month or so bah

oic .... well its not really difficult to install it yourself

I agree with you. Motul so far is the best choice for me since I rode my 2b bike. The lower the grade, the better and lighter the bike goes. 5w15 is it if not wrong but have to change often as the oil is thin. Correct me if I'm wrong, wrong me if I am not right.

 

Btw what about spark plugs? Do you guys use aftermaket one? I would prefer it to be the OEM spark plug as stated in the manual.

 

Saving money to buy termi pipe for the time being. Think will take some time to save. Hah.

:bow:

 

Just wondering how many set of tires he had changed for tat 20k++ milleage in almost 10 yrs...

[Aie]

im currently using maxima eo and cool aide.. bike feels excellent..

I tried this two products together before and the result is good. However the best combination that works for me was Maxima Cool-Aide with Amsoil EO. Temperature stabilizes at 84-86 degrees on cruise mode. Currently using Bel-Ray EO and coolant. Bike heats up fast and even on cruise mode, can reach above 100 degrees should it stops at traffic lights...

[anonymouser]

Have anyone tried the servicing package at Unique? I am going to do my first servicing next weekend. Any feedback especially with the OWS treatments below? I am going to consider changing to Maxima Cool-Aide instead of Engine Ice since I have received good feedbacks.

 

$357 PACKAGE

• NGK Iridium Spark Plugs

• Motul 300V 15W50 Fully Synthetic Engine Oil

• Oil filter

• Radiator flush + Engine Ice

• OWS 210 Engine Flush

• OWS 220 Engine Protector

• OWS 360 Gas Treatment

A tribute to the racing career of Tomizawa san.
