thank you all for looking out for my ang gu

Bro,

Well congrats on locating ur beast. At least we now learn something new abt such repossession from the finance company. If its a screw up, a definite compensation is to be sought. If they ignore their mistake, and no compensation is given, move to the next stage, ie, small tribunal claims dept. If me, will claim every single cent out of them. In Singapore, u have to PAY for ur MISTAKE motto, die die. Cheers!

[chinu]

deanz4,

 

it can be done at any workshop with a fee from $80, OR it can be DIYed.

 

there is an interval to do it.

 

critically u need to check & reset ur valves' gap to specific factory requirement if u experienced these:

- wierd & unusual engine noise when u start it.

- idling cant hold properly each time(be it cool or after any engine off) & stalled, idling only able to maintain after minutes of holding throttle.

- lost of performance & higher than usual fuel consumption.

 

upon ur valves resetted, carb will need to be clean(wash) to achieve best result.

 

u will need these tools:

- 2 pc of cam cover gasket(in case it's torn).

- general tools.

- a set of feeler guage(small blades)

- micrometer(to measure exsisting shim to calculate from the gap for the new shim size u need.)

shims can be purchase from Honda stockist at $4/each.

 

mine has never been done, my current mileage now is reading over 150,000km, its still riding fine.

 

hope it helps.

cbkooky,

 

ageing cam cover gasket is harden or sticken onto the block too tight over time, it'll somehow got torn at the moment it's lifted up, it cant be salvage, u need to replace it to prevent leakage.

 

cam cover have to lifted up in order to gain access to work on cam shaft area to get measurement.

Hi guys i m looking for workshop manual for STX for my fren who doesn't has internet acess. Anyone knows where cld i find a softcopy or buy a hardcopy?

 

thanks in advance.

[kish_garfield]

the handbook that comes with any new bike...in my opinion it is not like the must book...unless its like the haynes type which i dont think its out yet cause i tried to find it...but there is a honda one which is black and with red honda wing....MO any one?

[Niti]

Garfield -->> MO? Good idea, considering that I'm keeping this bike for a long time? How much per book?

[rAjOaNa]

k wat i m looking for is not the normal mainteince guide type. I m looking for is the workshop manaual which usually for bikes like Bandit, Fazer n blackbird is like abt 300+pages n its very detailed.

 

So if u guys are tokking abt tht my fren might be interested to get if its within his budget. So lemme know wats the M.O. price.

Thanks.

But just in case anyone would be ST owner looking for ST, my neighbourhood malay barber shop pachik is selling his FU plate early 2002 Maroon ST. He is the 1st owner and asking price is $13000. Condition is great except some stickers (with Quran verses) here and there.
