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

[Sprint74]

Greetings Bros.

 

I just pass my 2A, and finally my PB1 S4 can come out of Layup (7 months)

 

--Before layup (7 months ago), bike was super good running condition. engine super smooth, everything perfect. Excellent for a PB1. Took me awhile to find a PB1 that was running so smoothly.

--During layup, I will start bike once a week and let it idle awhile + rev a little.

 

Now I want to send bike for inspection, but am facing some problems:

1. Rear brake seems not working. I can press the rear brake pedal down very very far. I think maybe no more fluid over the last 7 months.

2. Gears seems a bit hard to shift. Like press with foot up and down, its quite stiff. Maybe because 7 months never change gears? Perhaps need to oil change.

3. When throttle up high (at least 7k), and suddenly let go, bike will sometimes die. If throttle to 4k and then suddenly let go, it is OK.

 

Bike had just gone for full overhaul right before I bought the bike, and since then never used it much. So doubt I need to do another overhaul ($$$).

 

My questions:

-- For problem 3 (bike dies after throttle up and let go), what could be the cause? This one I'm most worried.

-- Is there any reliable bike shop that can arrange for me Towing + Full service + Send for inspection? It does not have to be the cheapest, but must be honest (won't cheat me / tell me overhaul when I don't need to), and reliable (does proper check of all components). I used to go Planet before (when I had phantom), and while AhChong is honest, sometimes they are not very thorough, like basically chop chop fast fast repair the most required stuff. Other non 100% urgent stuff don't fix.

 

Thanks bros!!

Just DO THIS: 1) Empty your fuel tank and put in fresh petrol. Also drain out all the petrol in ur carbs (there is a drain screw for each). 2) Go change all your spark plugs. 3) Go for a long ride and if engine feels harsh..go for an eo change. Amen.

Hi guys, it's time to change my tyres for my Ver S. I was hoping for your kind suggestions.

 

For the tyres:

 

1) Any recommended brand I should be looking at??

I bought over the bike with a 120/60(front) and 160/60(rear) Michelin Pilot Power installed by the previous owner. I understand the stock size is 110/70 (front) and 140/70(rear) but unfortunately Michelin doesnt seem to have this size. I was thinking of reverting back to this stock size. Now, I've always trusted Michelin, but I'm open to any other suggestions. Budget-wise, I'm pretty flexible. A good deal is always nice, but I'd rather not be penny smart and pound foolish over the long-run. Thanks in advance!

i think the blacked-out exhaust is a moriwaki shorty exhaust. and the one on the orange is a pb1 exhaust.

I have a used stock spec 1 full exhaust system for sale. If interested let me know. 98162740

Hi guys,

 

'97 Ver S rider here. I've recently changed my sprocket and chain to what I suppose was the stock size of Front sprocket 15T and Rear sprocket 44T. The thing is, my bike used to be able to go 100km/h at 6k rpm in 6th gear but now I have to hit at least 6.5k rpm in 6th gear to achieve 100km/h.

 

I was thinking of reverting back to my pre-servicing chain set up as the strain on my bike is more noticeable now and my fuel consumption has taken a relatively-sizeable hit (around 23km/l now from ~26km/l previously).

 

What is the sprocket teeth set up I have to change to in order to get a better "top"/cruising speed with the least strain on my 18yr old bike? Look forward to your inputs and thanks in advance!

[zulcastor]

Hi thanks!! I heard the moriwaki is expansive was quoted 1800. Anyone selling their pb1 pipes by any chance?

maybe you can just change the rear sprocket to 42T?perhaps that was ur previous sprocket rear TOOTH...or down to 41T?....or just change your front sprocket to 16T........

No worry. It will go to overflow tube

Hi to all,

 

I currently own a PB1 and it is in running condition, but exterior appearance is really bad. I am thinking of doing an overhaul to the engine, and also change the exterior parts of the bike so that it will look spanking new.

Would like to have suggestions on which workshop to go to that can do a good job in restoring the bike.

 

Thanks in advance.
