wow, congrats! . anyway can share the details?

[emilsee]

Is the hornet 600 you saw, a 2007 or 2009 version?

There are some diff in terms of cosmetic and hardware.

now both front and back are adjustable forks and the cosmetic changes are that the swing arm, engine cover is black in colour instead of the traditional matt chrome.

 

haha thanks thanks, stil need alot of advices from the experience owner of hornet250 before i commit. oh i think ur hornet250 is the newest, fx plate right?

think if i were u, as wat i did to my current bike after like 2 months after purchase, service fork, change spark plug + eo, change brake hose if current one is stock to aftermarket, change brake fiuld, change pair of new tyres, have a look at brake pad see if going to wear out, change clutch + trottle cable, change all the bulb to new bulb. think that wat i did to my current bike. abit nuts, lol

[Kuro_Tenshi]

going to.. but no $$ now.. not so nuts i think.. need to check up on my radiator hose i think.. seems to be spilling water..

A bro check your washes especially the one running from the metel like pipe to the engine on the rigth side.

err... which one?? wait later got day light then maybe i take some photos but it's my left leg that kena the hot water.. happened to see the hose on the left side (while sitting on the bike) got a bit of water when it happened..

[Kman]

I am sure after 5 to 6 yrs washes need to be changed when it comes to overheating instead of solving one hose problem best to change every thing la like thermostat check fan if working change the cap for the radioator casue one thing will lead to another any way it does not cost as much as the repacussion of over hauling the engine rite.

[Kuro_Tenshi]

oh ok.. but where are those things?? me new to radiator thingy >"

[Kuro_Tenshi]

i think these are the possible places that could be spilling hot water...

[Kuro_Tenshi]

anyway, anyone knows where to source for original tail light and signals?

hmm bro, since u bought from the shop, muz ask them to check for u, should have some warranty from them ba. its quite dangerous that the hot water spilling out. be careful

[Touch n Go]

tail n signal lights can try ask lim ah boy, he can source for u..

[Kman]

See the metal pipe next to the engine the shiny one there is a rubber washer that can also csaue probs it connects to the engine.

 

Radiator cap v standard la most bike shop will have

 

hoses also preety cheap if u souce for it.

 

Thermostat cannot find than just remove my previous bike had no probs wif that

[Kuro_Tenshi]

anyway.. anyone knows the average FC for hornet 250?

[Kman]

I am getting about 25 km /l but i do a lot fo small roads

[Touch n Go]

I am getting about 25 km /l but i do a lot fo small roads

 

25km/l is quite good consider the power of this bike. S4 mostly ard 20-22km/l for vtec series and 23-25km/l for version S.

 

insurance n road tax is cheaper for hornet250 too.

[RapidThinker]

Wow... 25Km per litre... sure or not....

I can hardly reached 21Km ... for one litre...hahaha..

no fuel gauge.. so headache >"

[Touch n Go]

no fuel gauge.. so headache >"

 

dun worry bro, use the trip meter as a gauge, set to 0 when u pump full tank. ride til abt 330km then go pump and see how much u put in. this is a better way to check, the fuel gauge sometime not zhun one...

 

newer H250 comes with fuel gauge instead of temp gauge, with carbon prints on the meter.
