Good one ah pek! am interested to try it since its recommended by u, most of the time is good stuff! hehe..

whos up for pooling together ? im in..

 

anyway ahpek, regarding the leak, right now it seems to be getting lesser, short distance no leak at all, long distance (25km) now only have fresh stains... shall continue monitoring to see how it goes, hope its good..

 

When can i do the grounding? itchy hand already.. hehe

 

Grounding..anytime you are ready but a day ahead notice. The leak would eventually 'stablised' if not let me know. Actually I need you to ride near hi-rpm whenever you can to allow for heat and pressure to build up the coolant so that forceful flow so that the sealant particles can get into those tight cracks and does a better job. While you are monitoring, do check the reserve tank coolant level after 3 weeks..not below the lowest level.

the greenoil got any order already?? the greenoil just pour a bottle inside the fuel tank after pumping up full??

 

I recommend a Liquid Moly valves cleanser (use two parks for two full tank) run first before using Greenoil. Per bottle Greenoil last you 3 full tank. Only 20ml is use each time for one full tank. Recommendation instruction says 10ml to 10 litres or petrol, so..S4 tank total is 18 litres..so give and take..20ml is ok.

 

If you want detail..can go over to the "MO" (mass order) forum and check out the product advertisment there. Btw..I have noting to do with the MO there or the person dealing with his sales.

i'm not sure if this is a common trait w s4 bikes or all bikes in general since i never owned a bike b4 this - my bike seems to vibrate a lot more after 7k rpm no matter what gear it's in. i felt it esp @ the footrest area, quite a bit on the right side & slightly less so on the left.

 

the handlebar both sides also seem to vibrate quite a bit. my right hand palm seemed to feel the buzz more but i suppose that's cos it grips the throttle harder than the left one.

 

anyone has any advice on whether there's anything wrong or is it just normal? if the handlebar issue is normal, are there any ways to reduce the vibration other than wearing gloves?

not really bro. i feel in low-rpm 2-7. my bike vibrate more. after 7-15 bike feels more smooth :angel: like it's begging me to just open the throttle :cheeky:

 

I think if it's not too much trouble, u can try arrange with ah pek to do a body check up for your bike..

 

X1-R will help reduce vibrations too.

Wise Men say,only fools rush in.

It's common among old bikes..some little some vibrates lots more and some don't. This is usually caused by wear and tear of parts and components in the engine and gears in the gear box. The vibration if not generated by loose bolts and nut mounting, they come from oscillation and resonant sound wave from gear box na dengine compartment all added up. Only the right concorted eo helps.

 

Off the shelve standard multigrade viscosity eo won't help much but may be initially as most of this oil pay more attention to "lubrication" quality. If you can find a single grade SAE 40W eo, it helps better but at h-rev power play near red line, you have disadvantage and this eo would last about 3-5k before vibration comes in again.

 

The above said is base on some success I had with some bikes. Ianie is right that X-1R helps but with my blended eo it works even better..but again, all bikes condition varies.:sian:

Hi Ah Pek,

Can you also do some evaluation on my spec 2?

keke

Currently fuel gauge 2 bars left, distance travelled only 180km, damn jialat

just now check my tyres, found the pressure less then 200Kpa for front and rear.

 

Kano Bro, you must try Ah Peh's EO and grounding. When you going down? If i'm free i can join you.

 

Ah Pek busy with work? Sorry la can't make it for the pass 2 weekend :cheeky: .

Well..there are three certified institution listed on the packagng with Lab test result..can always contact them and sue them up. :angel:

 

i mean, i dont really understand wat its uses for. mind to explain? so ahpek, besides ur special eo blend, grounding,eps.. wat other things i need for my bike to keep it tip top? and wats the use of valve cleaner or watsoever its call..

Hmmm...explain?..did that a few times already and may be you track a few page back..there is something to it about this EPS thing. Many had installed already..it does works and may appear transparent to you after you get use to it..but take it off and you can feel the difference. But if your grounding is not mine..I likely would not recommend it to you.

 

EPS is not a so call "voltage stabliser" (there is no voltage to stabliser on a bike...home and car hi-fi system got :angel:) or "Impedance Stabliser" (bike don't have any thing that has resistance matching between two components..hi-fi speaker system got :angel:) or whatever its call beside a "CCA booster" (Cold CCranking Ampheres). If I have a name for it..I'll call it "Current Load Stabliser" but too bad I'm not an inventor.

 

You come one Sunday..may be those guys who installed and know how and why it works can explain over coffee. A few page back...got interested company talk and asked so much..give them appointment after they finally pm me to meet up for them to see the EPS and opportunity to sell oso never borther to respond. Anyway they have their own product which never works for me (go figure)..and even heard of it melting. Not bad mouthing but speaking the truth from ppl that I've serviced here.

 

"wat other things i need for my bike to keep it tip top? and wats the use of valve cleaner or watsoever its call"

 

Nothing else really..just keepp using the right grade of eo and X-1R and check your coolant system that its working. Oso be aware of imitation branded name coolant.

 

Valve cleaner and greenoil are used only after the peak of your bike performance has drop..not something that you ALWAYS must use.

 

Dimac...check all my post..somewhere in the jungle of it..there are all the answer you need..I can't now and then type and retype..hope you understand.:sian:

Anyway pek, can we use sealant as prevention ? instead of leak then use/ before it leak we can like use sealant every once a year? And for the water pump. recommend is change once every 2 years?
