wow

 

What's your travelling speed?

60-70 on normal road.

 

80-90 on highway.

 

normally change gears at about 4k rpm.

 

 

if i not wrong, earlier in this thread, some other

two-fiftys are getting around the same mileage, if not better!

 

 

was topping up at 2nd link last Saturday,

there was a mini-jam at 1am!

 

i thot what was going on???

 

only realized later when i passing over the Gelang Patah

flyover, the Singapore bikes n cars were gathered there.

probably checking out some illegal racing by our counterparts.

 

 

after exiting from Perling, was side by side with a CB4Vtec1 at the traffic.

He sped off when the lights turn green, can see it goes like rocket!!

Probably the Vtec has kicked in. Was able to chase him though n overtake!

(with 2 side panniers included)

 

Not bad for a two-fifty!

 

A blessed buy. :-)

 

cheers!

Hi spec: would lik to know how many teeth for the front n rear sprocket

for our hornet? isit 16/40?

Ravon,

 

Standard gear ratio is about 4:1. If I'm not wrong mine is 45:14 (Rear/Front). You can modify the rear to a lesser teeth to increase the high-end but the life span of the sprocket will be faster. Leave the front - Standard. Please refer the Sprocket Ratio Chart for your reference. Juz in case if you need it.

 

:cheer:

hmmm..

 

that's relatively my travelling speed too..

though i only change gears at 8k rpm..or more (your hornet will pull away faster, try it)

 

No grunts, no fun

 

gotta re-check my fuel consumption..

yup, beats a SuperFour any day.

Hikaru,

 

trying out the whole r ange of the 16krpm?

Yes that must be fun, i bet!

and chain set more often then. btw, how often

do u have to change your sprocket n chain?

but i guess u'd need to change your sprocket

and chain set more often then. btw, how often

do u have to change your sprocket n chain?

my mileage is now about 31,000km..

 

hmmm.. how often do i change my chain and sprocket?

 

well, i havent changed mine yet. (yup, believe me)

still functional.. (maybe its cos i'm using Scottoiler, only pulled my chain once)

 

will consider changing them when i hit 50,000km.

(along with my stock set of rubbers - not changed them yet too..

still using BT050 cos the threads' still there)

 

i'm a believer in Engine-Braking.. (with brakes, of course, but juz minimal emphasis)

 

[E.V.ilyn]

argh!!! i wanna go waterfall also... but me not in country...

woah!

 

keep it down, man. Not so loud!

 

yeah, i'm still relatively 'young' (in terms of mileage)

 

as regards to the installation of Scottoiler..

i had mine installed at Hodaka Motoworld.

its realli neat, i must say.. all hidden away under my seat.

 

 

(off topic: i'm still considering looking for a bellypan for my Hornet)

dunno whether a super four's bellypan would do the trick..with mods.
