It's like that one..the clutch level really far until u feel like letting go when u are stuck in the traffic jam..haha..anyway u can change ur levers to those default bikes type...although u still unable to adjust the biting point distance, u will feel much better as the tension is not as tight anymore..

well..guess a number of them will recommend the brand "Dragon"..I personally haven't get the chance to change so can't comment on the tyres...

So far I had try ME-Z4 and Dragon GTS. Both have a lower mileage, usually around 20k depends on your riding style and habits. And don't forget it 2 front 1 back, it diff from sport where is 1 front 2 back, it coz most of the weight is at the front. Price is abt $50~$100 diff. ME-Z4 cost around 320~360 and Dragon is 420.

Grap will be good during dry and wet weather for Dragon and ME-Z4 is good on dry road and average on wet road.

hi immanuel,

 

service interval for ST1100 depends on individual discreet. i service my bike with change of engine oil & oil filter at around 10,000km after 40,000km of life span used.

 

spark plugs at an interval of every 2-3 times of oil chang depending on performance.

 

air filter varies, some like it stock some like it K&N...

 

before getting a used ST1100 from shop, it should be at reasonably used condition, shouldnt be with new look or any new cosmetic built, else..... inspect for any leaks around the cam area just behine the radiator & lower right side under the foot peg along the final drive-shaft, due to fair wear & tear, some oil seals might given it's way due to entensive handling & poor mantenance by previous owner(s).

 

hope it helps, need any help just let us know.

hi immanuel,

 

now commonly using r;

- Dragon

- BT020

- ME-Z4

- Michelin Macadam

- ME33 & ME55

 

like amen23 said, most of them will suggest pair of Dragon, we also have a strong group of BT020 users, the reccomendation never rest..

 

it all depends on riders' requirement, some wants its high at mileage like me, some like it 'sticky' to...

 

u cant have both at the same time.

[immanuel]

i ask afew motor tiam.they ask me put black bird levers.which is longer n the clutch side can adjust.so i just 1 2 comfirm wif u guys really can use or nt before i buy.later buy liao cannot use then jialat.if found 1 guy selling per pair of blackbird carbon fibre levers at $45.can consider.

[immanuel]

[immanuel]

Did not know that black bird lever can fix onto our beaST.... but from wat I know and mostly beaST master world wide know that VFR's lever can be fix onto our beaST. It will help those with reaching problem (meaning it nearer to the handle) but the pressure wise still the same (it help u to train finger muscle)

[Guest william_tcw]

Well, BB or VFR, the lever for honda are mostly universal.

Changing to either will ease the length and at the same time, it is actually easier to pull in the clutch and u will not have a sore finger.... it actually have a pivoting action thus kinda ease off the pressure..

wah.if 1 check back by the time i knw the ans already 6hrs liao.nw days the forum keep on hang leh.then cannot go in.haiz.

[Guest william_tcw]

Dun need to purposely order the BB lever la. just go any shop and i think they should have spares, otherwise just go FJT to buy lor. Worst case, go Gopa place, sure got ready stock.....

 

[Guest zailin235]

Hey guys... relatively new in this "conference room"... well anyway just wanna re-live back the topic of metal rubbing sound at the rear wheel... got the same problem... so made a check... a thorough one and even my mech's could not get to the problem...the simplest thing that i tot in logical terms was the wheel bearing...just some spraying of the grease and walla... only the sound of nice riding.

[Guest william_tcw]

Well, if it's really the wheel bearing sound, then logical thinking would be the bearing is devoid of lube (probably bearing already worn as well), spraying of grease only temporary relieve the sound. The ideal way would be to removed the wheel, check bearing for sign of wron, replace if required, otherwise, re-apply grease then fit it back....

 

[Guest zailin235]

knew you'd say that... ...well the problem started from the washing of my beast at JB... using petrol to take off all the dirt on both wheels... so reaction of that wud be degreasing the greased parts... didnt noticed it after several washings and the prob started to occur only months later...so i reckon got something to do with lubrication. even told my mechs abt it and he said the bearings were fine (during the changing of my tyres)... once the bearings were plainly re lubricated. the sounds went off in a fizzz.... no more irritating squeeking sounds from the wheel. but then i dun really put the probability of bearing wears.... so to all beastmaster, who feels wanna change the bearings... can just do so... needs a true blue faithfull mechs to tell you what can still be used and not only.
