Unless you are a DIY person yourself, with a service manual at hand, proper tools and a covered location, you can DIY quite easily. Otherwise buy some of the experienced TDM owners coffee and learn to do it together. Workshops may not do the mods for you especially HL. For a start, start reading all the technical TDM forums especially the jbx one. Once you think you are confident, then go ahead. Have a go removing the side panels to access the air box. That should be quite easy.

Most have done the air mod... But as for the cleaning of the idling regulator, my advise is try not to touch it unless you have the symptom (in your case, might be)...You won't go wrong one lah, its the one and one "thing" there... But to get there, you have to go through high and low, with the right tools will be easier...

To me DIY is not about cost saving, but to get to know the bike better and of course the sense of satisfaction... At the end of the day, whole hand cover in dirt and grease... Errr...

You get even more satisfaction when you feel more torque! Enjoy your new ride and welcome to e TDM family:thumb:

Thanks for the sharing, I'll will probably bring her to sporting motors where meng tong is, and get the idle regulator cleaned up.

 

Sound like the same issue when I'm riding ST11 and x9 years back. Very irritating as if like someone pushing on your forehead and have to keep fighting back. It will be worse if you go high speed / touring, very tiring.

You need to adjust the right height of your wind screen or your seat height to let the wind pass over/correct area. Not directly onto your forehead.

Luckily my TDM don't have this issue as Asphalt has raise the seat height and a nice aftermarket screen...

I adjusted the smaller screen to direct the airflow higher.

 

I'm not a wrench monkey... I'm an advocate of not DIY-ing. As much as I do not try to ct my own hair... I can if i want, I've known a few friends who cut their own hair. But for certain things, I believe it's better to pay a professional to do it..

lol I get what you mean

"meng tong (real name meng kong) is now at sporting motors at kaki buki autobay, #02-60. just had my bike overhauled done by him last week. sporting is somewhat related with mah motors. hope that clears all doubts. =D"

 

I got the above info via other thread, that was in 2009. dunno whether he's still there. Anyone can confirm?

[joekia]

Ya. He is still at sporting. I'm going there purely for the suspensions though.. Be prepared to leave your bike there.

Some FYI bros. Hong Leong tried to sell me today rear disc, brake pads and front brake pads for the amazing special price of $600+!!!

$160 of which was ONLY LABOR!!!

Getting a bit ridiculous wouldn't one say? (or just plain robbery!)

Even the staff there were like "WOAH! SO EXPENSIVE EH!"...

...so I guess it's NO GO to HL anymore... so sorry to all the friends we have there...gonna miss you guys.

Meet up at night leh. Trunk roads can twist in the daytime.

 

Ur baby is still young & duno how to flip or go in reverse gear while prone position yet. So no danger of falling off the bed! I got experience in this (my boy topple off my bed when he was 4months + when he did a reverse gear off the bed) so trust me, no rush.

 

Work?? Tell ur boss it's a GOOD FRIDAY, not a BAD FRIDAY!!

 

Kopi?? Come meet up... I buy u a dozen cups also no problem.
