Hi Bro,

I think you should check your tyre is there any nails or metal kind of things,

and how long did you need to pump your tyre ?

1. Lets say if you are pump your tyre at 280kpi on monday and at the next following week if you check your tyre again and it drop to 270 to 260 kpi it still ok. But if it drop lower then that something is wrong with your tyre valve you may have to change it.

2. Your back brake having a screeching sound hmmmmm...

the last time i also have this problem what i did is change a better new brake and it's ok now maybe you can try also.

 

Shop in AMK never try before.

I always send my bike to kallang ave industiral park the own name call Ah Lai

 

Hope this will help you to solve your problem

One man's meat is another man's poison. Depending on how old is old. I had no problems for my 2003 model : )

oh i heard from my mec that STX always have electrical problems. Please dun flame me, thats what i heard. So i need some advise before i commit.

[sambora67]

hi stantheman, u selling ur AT ? wow ;(

 

well go to http://www.st-owners.com/

 

u get loads of info there anyway my stx is gonna be 2 yrs old soon and so far no major issues at all. its a great tourer for me really comfy in my opinion- i be going for the saddle sore ride on 1st aug and will inform u of its comfortability altough did rides to krabi n koh samui already with it.

As per sambora67, st-owners site gives you all the knowledge you can get. There are about 9 other sites that offers great help, and all bikes will have some teething problems here and there.

 

Best to pm those who are riding them to get an honest opinion : )

Time : 730 - 8pm

Location: Either Central/West for 1hr + before heading cross border, or cross border for kopi and supper directly.

Plans: pm me your name, email and contact so that I can liaise outside this thread

 

Cheers

 

Ride Safe

 

Have confirmed the location : Sunshine Place @ Choa Chu Kang Terrace (Coffee Shop)

Time : 730 to maybe 9pm : )

Topic : getting to know your STX, DIYs for existing and potential owners

hi fellow bros,

after finishing all claims procedures,cash from ntuc already in my pocket.alas ,was told by loois that scrape contractor found my cdi missing!bike was toll to sporting motors immediately after the bike caught fire @ malacca.bike was dismantled by meng kong,left "naked" for about 3 weeks.next was toll to ida (kaki bukit),fairing installed back.discovered headlight protector & cramp buster missing.bike was @ ida for abt 5 days.next was toll to looi's motor because sporting is not authorised claim workshop.the claim surveyor took pictures of bikes with all loose parts "pasar malam" to be photograph.& now was informed cdi missing!

so please bros tell me where is the missing cdi ,& what should i do to protect my interest.cheers & ride safe.

u could try FJT. or get them to order for u. I bought my bike brand new, came as part of the accessories- only accesory in fact lol.

It's not cheap and hard to come by. You can try FJT as recommended by sambora67

 

Else other options would be a tank bra ($150 new, used $100-120), or studded grip from motoworld

 

Happy hunting
