SP problems

[yomama]

Hi guys,

 

couple of questions on SP.

 

1) My bike on cold mornings (nvr start for maximum ONE day only) takes alot of kicks to start, changed my spark plug, still same. i park on a slanted slope, anything to do with it?

 

2) Next, when I wanna ride off after the troublesome kickstarts, the bike takes high revving to get started and couple of times when I'm finding the biting point of clutch, something inside slips. can hear a TAK sound. Any idea what that is?

 

3) When I'm riding halfway, engine suddenly just die. have to stop by the road and kickstart. thats after quite a fair distance of riding already.

 

kind pple, please tell me, what. up?

try parking on a flat surface road,and the tak sound come from where? best to go to a reputable mech to diagnose bro.

It does sound like a string of major issues - clutch assembly and might want to check carb settings.

 

Any other telltales - are the engine temps normal when it cuts out when moving?

[yomama]

the tak sound seems to come from the clutch when i move off from stationary when revving high (cus of cold, no power). my house only got slanted slope..zzz

 

thanks anyways pple, so should check out with mechanic huh?

Yep, only the trained 'medical personnel' will know what sort of surgery and medicine to prescribe.

 

In the meantime try not to run at high revs when the engine is cold. Motor oil needs to be warmed up to operating temp for maximum lubrication.

Encounter b4 my NSR is when I clutch out have a faint "tak tak tak" all e way. When I clutched in den ok already. Cause my clutch plates wear out. As for the cold start that need choke all e way even park for 1 day even thou change spark plug/EO. I'm not very sure of it. Wanting to hear frm the experience guys out there.

1) you got turn off your fuel valve? try to on choke and off headlight before kickstart. or you might wanna off engine kick a few times then on and kickstart it.

 

2) ask a mech to check on your clutch plates. or your biting point is too far?

 

3) did you on your fuel valve? did you off your choke? if not bring down to bikeshop tell them your problem and let them assess.

regarding clutch plates...how much does it cost to get changed? any experiences from the ground?

 

oh yeah and my battery, changed it once and since im using it everyday, dunno why headlights still dim. advisale to change to LED? maybe for the tail lights. heard it saves lots of power.

clutch plate change is about $120 @unique motorsport

[yomama]

Rectifier

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectifier

 

Basically whatever generates electricity in your engine produces AC which is then converted by the rectifier into DC to power stuff.

k thanks guys! looks like many things to change. zzzz. cant wait to change to 2A bike

Get ur carb cleaned and tuned. Secondly which spark plugs are u using? There is 2 types, cold number 8 and hot number 9. Try number 8.

[yokokazunori]

most of the 2a bikes are also as old as sp

[KeraKing]

clutch plate ard $50 at ahboy/agent.

 

Hard to start try service and tune carb.

 

2a bike if problem more $$ involve.

[yomama]

didnt know spark plug has 2 types. i just saw the mech put one NGK one in. is HKL a good place to service? always go there but i dunno the market price. change EO spark plug less than 30 bucks. is that considered ok?

off ur light when u kick start or pull choke without touching ur trottle bar this helps for me

[meow]

maybe your sparkplug the coil ignition thing wear out.. you should go check on that.. if neutral light is weak, test the horn.. might be battery weak.. and the tak sound most prob from ur worn out clutch plates.. or bearings shifted..

guys if clutch plate spoil, wat signs are there? noisy rattles of my engine means clutch plate or other problem? i overhauled and run in jus last month not my engine very noisy. how?
