[Group] Super Four Non-VTEC Family: PB1 VerR & VerS

[soma]

Just wanna say a very big thank you to Ah Pek here for solving the coolant leakage problem with my bike

 

Previously went to bike shop and spend $300 plus changing gasket, and doing their sealant mixture treatment, but problem still persist.

 

After then decided to go to Ah Pek, and tried his sealant mixture. What he explained to me is that the way the sealant mixture treatment is done is crucial to how successful it will be e.g. how existing coolant is flushed and drained away.

 

Its been two weeks since I've done the treatment, and so far so good, no leakage at all, and the coolant level has maintained the same

 

For those with a similar problem, I would suggest you guys get in touch with Ah Pek first before spending unnecessary money like me!

Haha, I seldom post here, but this kind of info is important and good to share with more people

 

For me, if bike really got problem and need to spend money, no choice I don't mind as long as problem is solved, but I hate it when I go to bike shop, spend money and problem still persist, and they give you some runabout and complex explanation

 

And after trying your treatment, so far the coolant level has remained the same, don't even need to top up! Thanks again

 

By the way, I noticed that at small throttle openings i.e. low revs around 1-2k, my bike seems a little jerky, and not as smooth as when the revs are higher. Is this normal? What might be the problem?

Quite a "norm" thingy due to throttle slack mostly over period of time used. Have to remove tank (unless you have small and nimble fingers) to reach and adjust the throttle cables (pull and return), just above the carbs.. to tighten the slack lightly. Can be partially damage throttle stranded wires itself..have to look at it.

That's correct. But if there is no leaking, it could be the thermostat faulty or the coolant pump not working and coolant are trapped and eventually gotten evaporated. Choked water coolant passage clogged may caused the problem too. If this is allow to go on, engine block water jacket can cracked.

ah pek, when can i meet u up to change EO?

ah pek, when can i meet u up to change EO?

 

Can come anytime before 6 pm today. Morning oso can.

[Ah Pek]

Heh guys...just got news that Malaysia dealers and reseller are controlling the prices for EPS because they are doing bulk buy and as agreed buy the supplier. The popular V3 model (now at $160) is going up by at least $30. Was told selling at $200+ but the E300 still same price.

 

Anyone here interested can pm me soonest.

[Ah Pek]

Did you do anything lately to the coolant system?

 

Have to top up and see where is leaking if any, otherwise hve to check both thermostat and coolant pump.

[Dimac]

check wif u guys ah, if u guys buy a street legal pipe need to do tuning at the carbs ah? then if u buy it from forum then how?

and wats the difference btw vtec and non vtec size tire? we are afterall same family. y vtec is much bigger then non vtec? i just wonder y. are their bike more heavier then us and thats y they need a bigger tire?

I guess there are reasons behind why vtec uses bigger tyres compared to non vtec.

 

Performance wise,I still think that non vtec shldnt go change to vtec tyres size.

The size of the tyres being designed probably is for the optimum performance.

 

Im riding S4 Ver S but using vtec size tyres - since its from the previous owner.

Didnt find any BOOST of performance using vtec tyres.haha.

My suggestion: non vtec - use non vtec tyres.lol

 

[pufferfis]

u shld use a search function n dont be lazy.....cheapest so far i know is unique motors at ubi or autobay...recently went there changed aeromax 110/140 for $195. u can find their tire pricing in the sales announcement section in unique motorsports...if u reli wan reli reli reli cheap den go ah boy....hhheheheheehehehhe...good luck

 

any 1 know which shop sell the cheapest tyre ? pls pm mi thanks ...

[stRobe]

Anyone used the non-original sprockets from ah boy before? I would like to know if there are any negative reviews..

 

X-ring chain (DID) + sprockets = $120-140

well, im using 140 rear tire. performance maybe its lighter then 160 but maybe no cornering? i just find it that 140 is like to small for super4, like riding a kr with a "sotong" tire.. haha!
