Yamaha YZF R1ders

[lo-on]

i dun think backfirings are the cause of my valves though since i dun have back fire problems.. while u said trackers burn their valves n need to change 16 of them, my bike's issue here is definately not the same n i dunno how accurate but i was told the other 8 output valves can last longer then the other 8 thus u dun always need to cahnge all tgt so wheres the weird part? and i really dunno how it got dmg. enlighten me?

 

ok lets put it this way ... an old R1 lets say example Aie , riding a 02 model that has very high milage as he uses it for transport and also occasionally wacking. His bike may have exceeded 100k clocked on the meter but he takes care of it very well. Uses the best engine oil available and changes the oil filter every 5k when he changes the engine oil.

 

another new rider lets say Pie, riding a 08 model that is still quite new that has very little milage cause he may have a side bike for transport and R1 for weekend ride only. His milage maybe only less than 20k clocked on the meter.

 

1) Pie wacked hs bike very hard till above 260km/h everytime he hit NSHW. As his is a weekend bike, he changes his engine oil every 5k but oil filter at 10k cause he was told and he read that oil filter could last for about 10k or more. ( i considered this poor maintenance as he rode his bike hard but oil filter did not change frequently )

 

2) Pie seldom rode his bike but he love to play backfiring cause its fun and thats what causes the fast wear and tear on the bike.

 

For japanese bikes, they are meant to last long and had been tested and proven to last compared to other makes of bikes. Wear and tear should be together which as what u quote, the input valves are made of titanium and therefore wears faster than other 8 valves but how come in your case its not all 8 of them? IF there are just 5 input valves that needs to change but yet the rest do not need, there could be a problem with the flow of the engine oil that causes faster wear and tear.

 

Thats what i meant.

ok let me check with the mech regarding my other valves. thanks

[Chatterbox]

yes fully recovered for about a month already ... minor injury thats all waiting for armpit to organise something for us

 

frankly speaking i disagree with u in this area ... problems are created by riders due to poor maintenance ... your valve problems are cause by excess backfiring by either yourself or whatever previous records because its only 8 valves and not all the valves ... if its wear and tear, all the valves should change together at 1 shot ...

 

What is excess backfiring ??

 

mr guru, y when sudden throttle the valve vibrates so much and so loud? last time not so loud one :

 

I had a issue with my clutch plates in my old bike, the valve motor has issues as well. Not sure if R1 has these similar issues

it is cause by

 

1) rider made. think u may know or heard of some bikers who love to do backfiring purposely for the fun of it to "scare" other road users

 

2) mods to your bike. one common example is like u change your end can or full system but it was not dyno-jetted for carb or mapped for EFI system.

u are most welcome bro

Thanks Leon, Tiny & Wengz! for the reply on the tires, will do some research on them.

 

Went down to Motor World today to get a visor for my HJC helm, was talking to the dude there and he was recommending Pirelli Corsa 2 i think for $420 plus installation.

 

Then planet motor, says Michelin Pilot... which i intend to bring my bike there to service, as i read so many good things about them =)
