Anyone knows whether a 5W40 Oil is good enough to be used in singapore's weather and on a ver S?

 

or is it too thin?

 

 

 

Shud be okay... Subjective to individual liking..

 

As long as not car EO, it's okay..:)

Hi guys. I just bought super4 Ver S last week. I encountered a problem for the past few days. When i press the ignition switch, my bike won't turn on. There's not even a crank sound. I brought it to sungei kadut workshop yesterday and they say i have to change my carbon(?). He say if nvr change must press and hold the ignition switch while using something to knock the carbon at the side. And it really works.

 

I asked him how much to change the carbon starter, he said 100+. Is it the normal range?

Maybe he meant Starter Carbon

 

 

Parts is cheap, labour is ex due to many parts than need to be remove prior to installation

 

Price varies

Dont ride if its overheating will spoil ur bike.

open up the side cover without the keyhole .. thats the reservoir.. it shouldnt be empty.

 

if its filled u have to take off fuel tank and check by opening the radiator cap itself....

Where is the best place to buy cheap and good side mirrors?

 

Any car parks, preferably multi-storey car parks at night.

Anyone can ride a bike. Being a biker, is a state of mind.

Travel to Thailand also shouldn't have coolant leaking. Check your reserve tank level to confirm the level is dropping off.

 

It could be the mechanic never tighten properly, the place he drained the old coolant. Just go back to him.
