Yo Father John yes i agree with what your mechanic say as the actual fact that singapore is not a place like track or high speed and therefore a damper is not necessary and no need to ....

 

But do u know that if u are those who frequent track or Malaysia roads very often, frequent tightening and losening of the screws is not good for your bike also as it will spoil the head of your screws. Second is that if your mechanic just happen to forgot or maybe he did not tighten your screw hard enough in order to hold your damper in place, do u know what is the consequences?

 

So personally i agree with what vidz23 has said that in singapore, click your damper to the lightest feel to avoid stressing it or to prolong your damper .... and when u are at the custom, just tighten it lor ....

Hey guys,

 

I think some of you has seen this video on how reliable the R1 is when Sjaak Lucassen used it to travel around the world. It's already 5 years and the bike is still going strong after 195,000+kms.

Yah, I called you. Thought you were with them. Sorry for disturbing you. Glad you're better now.

 

I guess I put it in a wrong term. I meant in Singapore, I turn my damper to 0 click's and only turn it higher when I go to Malaysia.

 

And I agree. Penske is only for rear shocks. Bitubo is a good brand. Used for track.

oh its ok bro ...

 

Miscommunication comes when i misinterpret your terms and meaning the wrong way ... sorry about that too

[nocturnized]

so the PAIR valve actual work is to lessen the backfire problems huh ? Anyone tried the PAIR valve mod yet ?

Totally true. When I'm riding in Singapore, my damper is set to its minimal. However, the moment I enter the 2nd link towards JB, then it's click click click and I'm ready for speed...

The PAIR valve system makes emissions more friendly. Any excess unburnt fuel exiting the exhaust port (lower right of diagram) would just go out the tail pipe without the PAIR system. This is what happens when you suddenly shut the throttle all the way, with a quick deceleration. Since the throttle body is then closed, no air is going into the engine, creating a rich condition that lets some uncombusted fuel escape into the exhaust stream. Without a PAIR vale, you get the "popping" on decel -- little explosions of this unburnt fuel igniting further down in the tail pipe when it reaches some oxygen.

 

With the PAIR in place, extra air is allowed into the exhaust from the airbox, allowing this very hot, but unburnt, fuel to ignite and be burned off before it exits the tail pipe.

 

I can tell you from personal experience that without a PAIR valve you get very prominent explosions (popping) on decel, and these are completely eliminated when you restore the PAIR system to stock.

 

Now why do people remove the PAIR valve? Well, some very clever people have looked at this diagram and have noticed a great opportunity to use that same Venturi effect vacuum to a performance benefit.

 

Racers spend big $$$ installing vacuum pumps to remove air from the crankcase. This makes it easier for all the gizmos to turn and spin, since air resistance is decreased in the crankcase. Not having to work against such resistance, the engine can operate more efficiently, sending more of its power to the rear wheel, rather than wasting it as heat caused by fighting internal air resistance.

Magnetic coil needs to be changed? There goes a few hundred dollars...

[nocturnized]

so am i right to say that by doing the PAIR valve mod, u will have much more backfires (popping sound?)

 

hehe but after reading the article above, seems like it does'nt give much benefits though... anyone done trying it before, any feedbacks ?

[kinwei]

Magnetic coil very easy to change one.. Just go buy the coil, gasket for the magneto cover and get ready for engine oil. No need to waste money.

[kinwei]

Sound chims to me...

If ticking sound, that should be from the cam tensioner.

 

Most R1 engine has that sound.
