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

[Rider Saje]

LOL!...send to Ah Fook lah. Saw him repraying a whole S4 today for $250...may be he charge u $25 for that piece for a good job.

 

Anyway.just remember that when doing respraying..the "Prep" stage is the MOST IMPORTANT..that is the surface has to washed..find sanded and washed again and make sure no oily residues. Basically what I meant here is tghe surface must be clean thoroughly and also only spray thin layers and the distance of spraying is at least 10" to 12" away. Each layer mush be dried under hot sun or use a torch burner to assist. Wait till cool again and fine sand again before spraying. Repeat 3 to 4 layers and you have one reliable paint job that last for YEARS!

 

I used hair dryer instead for drying because I did it on a rainy day. Ya lor, I guess I might send to him for spraying. Is he using 2k paint or normal spray cans? The red that I got from the spray seems to be of a different shade. And, there's a fingerprint mark on it because my baby nephew went to touch it before it was competely dry. LOL!

talking about coolant stuff. today while riding, first time i notice that the 'temperature' light is flickering. when I rev up to accelerate, the light starts to flicker.. and when I close throttle, the flashing stops. I checked the coolant fan. it does turn on. now the question is: Is it still ok to ride with the 'temperature' light flickering or being turned on?

Better stop riding when the high temp light is on.

Check your coolant in the reserve tank, see if it is boiling.

Might be battery problem, check your battery voltage.

Might also be starter problem, trying using a hammer or something heavy to knock your starter and see if it works after that.

Bring tyre patch kit, extra coolant and extra fuse for the trip. Before proceeding, do check your coolant hoses for holes or leakage, check radiator whether its working, check your front and back brakes, top up brake fluids if empty, check tyre pressure, check engine oil level, check your battery, check your lightings and signals, etc. These are the important ones you need to check and I can think of at the moment. Others will add in if there's more. haha. Cheers and ride safe bro!

Thx bro.. Bt dynojets re mostly used fer ppl changing full system pipe rite?.. Any idea hw much is dynojets?.

[scubasimon]

Simple tools to bring are a set of Allen keys, wrenches of sizes that fit your bike. On my version S, key ones are 8,10,12,13,14,18,24. Chain lube if you are not using O/X ring chains. Screwdriver (both the - and + heads) and pliers. Some extra bolts and nuts in case any comes loose. I had one disappear from my side rack before. Bungie cords, cable ties and duct tape are some great tools to have around to patch things. Sounds like a lit but you guys can distribute the load and share.

 

I also recommend Ride On TPS for tires as this gives you peace of mind from tire punctures.

You can ask HKL or racewerks for quotation. Suspected to be around 300 plus. U can still go for dynojets without changing to full system. You going for the Kulai Trip right? Can ask around also there. See what the rest say. See you this Friday ah. hehe

use max 150. dun use 160. it will be very very tight at the edge, when tyres are new it may be ok, but halfway through the life span of tyres. balding plus squaring will be give u handling problem. unless u thinnk ur life is not important, please dun try what is not recommended by manufacture.

 

we are riders, safety is at the top most priority.

 

Cheers
