anyway you buy all these from where ahr?

 

can buy 1 set bo?? i pay you, but i DIY myself anyway can you pm me your account number, the $2 i have nt returned you for the pole light....

okok, u sure u wanna do it? now one day liao.. got a few bad points abt this oiler. let me ride for a few more days to observe first

[kinwei]

I suppose the bad point is that you can't completely stop the oil from dripping. The important point abt creating a oiler is to make sure everything is 100% sealed. Even so, heat from the bike will create a pressure in side the oiler, so the only way out is from the end of the tube.

oh yes, i can stop the oiler from dripping totally. the 2 knobs there are to control the flow rate of the oiler. from scale.. say 0 - 10

 

abt the heat affecting the dripper.. yet to experience anything from it. need go take her out for a few more rides b4 i can list out the pros and cons

[kinwei]

I previously installed the one done by Vchua, simple oiler. It operate by having the on/off knob at the handlebar. 5 min before reaching destination, just on the valve and the oil will drip, just before reach destination, just off the valve. But being the tube passing by the engine block, it gets heaty. So it will slowly push some of the oil out resulting in a oily patch on the ground after that. Saw the version that you made, maybe it because you total sealed it up using the valve thats why it can be stopped completely. But I find it more comfortable operating it from the handlebar. Dun u think so?? And a sugesstion, try putting the dripper at the sprocket there. It lube the chain better and also lesser fling.

first day a problem surfaced.

 

1. Oil leaking even knob is closed totally.

 

knob is designed as a valve to control the flow of air from an air pump in a fish tank. the oil is able to slip thru both knobs and 'leak' onto the chain on the same spot.

 

2. Knob is plastic, open close a few more times it wears off, which means oil flow control scale rating might downgrade to 2-10 instead of 0 - 10

 

this can be rectified using metal knob as shown. much much better den the plastic knob. pricing is the same. also S$1.

that is all tat im facing for now. anyway, i have solved the oil leaking problem already. since im only oiling it once a week, i will let it oil on monday when i start my bike and when i reach my detination, i will place the bottle the other way round. oil will not flow in this way. knob still able to peform oil flow rate. but it is only abit troublesome when u need to place the bottle upright n down once a week. but heck! this oiler is just $4.30, i cant expect much! haha! i mean i dun mind la.. just open rear seat and place oiler bottle the other way round can liao.

 

other den this... the oil did splash abit but not that exaggerating, all oil splash into the chain guard(inside underneath). from wat i observe, oil lubs the chain effectively. after going 2 - 5km, i feel the chain n sprocket, all are well lubricated.

 

but according to an experienced DIY oiler (i got the idea from him), "When you lube the top, before the oil can flow down and lube the chain underside, it got fling off at the front sprock... Oiling below section will allow the oil to lube the interior section and while at the rear sprocks, the C.Force will force the oil to flow outward to the exterior (lubing what ever is in it's way) before the fling off."

So how? anyone interested in my yoshi?? I can let go cheaper than $300. I'm going to sell my bike liao, so no point give to the shop. It really a good investment especially those track goer.

Mine is the one with silencer. But can be removed. The internal hole is much bigger than the old yoshi. So after remove silencer, it much louder compared to a G1 with the old yoshi. Should be the K6 750 bah.. But trying to find money first. If not, will go for the 2nd batch which is at sept.
