High compression gasket is self explainable by its name. It is a thinner gasket meant replace your orignal gasket to increase the compression ratio of your engine. But after changing, your engine will run hotter, need higher octane fuel and engine reliability will drop.

ALso high com gasket can give you about 4-8 bhp in the mid range, but you top end will suffer a bit.

The ticking sound is quite common among the suzuki bikes. Most likely might be the cam chain sound. Whats the ODO of your bike? If it below 60k, there isn't a need for you to do valve clearance. The ticking sound is quite obvious even when bike is warm up for the valve clearance case. If the ticking sound quiet down after warm up, might be the cam chain. As for the inconsistence idling, go have your throttle bodies balanced and possible reset the TPS. Just my suggestion. Recently there isn't much great bike doctor around. Maybe you can try Bikewerks at Shun Li Industrial park.

I recommend unity for any suzuki problem.

it's not a temperature sensor.

 

A thermostat is a so call device that will open up at the designated temperature, let's say 85 degree cel to allow coolant to flow into your engine block, thus cooling down your engine parts to attain maximum performance.

bro who u ordering the part from?

u got call around for the part?

i mean have to wait so long meh

anyway how u noe ur thermo spoil liao

[vidz23]

i mean alj even if ya bike is MIA

ya still can join us for local outings ma...

ur scram more then enough le..

[ET]

I now using 5w-40 MAXIMA for racing, just a tryout, it gets damn hot during the day but during night it is perfect and smooth,anyway I am gonna change it soon. Clock around 2000km and prepare to change due my 3NCR,so after using 5W40, it is suitable also for our humid weather.

 

I guess these EO i have tried before and give them no go:

 

1. Castrol

2. Motorex

 

Those that are good for our climate:

 

1. Maxima(commonly use)

2. Motul Double Ester(Expensive)

3. Royal Purple(hard to find)

4. Esso Gold(commonly use)

5. Rock Oil(first motor carries it)

 

 

I think mark is trying to find a way with using the tre to cut that problem. Will changing of sprocket size help?

 

Comments?

[299]

we will follow u....

hmm... no wonder the exhaust is combusting out very string distinct smell... hmm... the fuel knob is located under the tank ar? do i have to remove anything to switch on the knob?

 

Anyway, i alwys pump to the max one...

ya the fuel knob is whr ur suspension spring is...i mean beside ....juz turn clockwise to the max till it facing downwards,duni remove anytin ....hey bro,if there are strong petrol smell from ur exhaust....n if u dun find much power from ur bike,mayb u gt big problem liao le...mayb only....

 

a) 1 or more of ur plug is not working due unknown reasons....

 

b) 1 or more piston is not working due unknown reasons....

 

best is u bring to other shop for a check ba....cant really go to the same shop if u wana ensure they dun cheat on u..

[299]

is it true tat it's not worth it getting a full syst coz it only has little gain on our bikes?

[kinwei]

Yo..... I've done up my prototype TRE liao.. managed to find some new connector.. but this time need to remove all pins from the stock connector. But it is more neat. NBo pix, as still proto!! The real deal is the result isn't it? Well managed to get the circuit to work so that I can start bike with side stand on. So I had tried using 5th gear resistor and 6th gear resistor. So heres my review.

 

It only helps abit for the sensitive throttle. But I'm pretty sure 5th gear reisistor works better in smoothening the twitchy throttle. 1st few gear acceleration is much better.

 

So far only tried 5th gear resistor on high speed. Somehow I hope it will works the same as the G1, supposingly to destrict the 6th gear restriction. But I was wrong, makes no diff. Somehow I find the bike slower at top speed. WIll try 6th gear reisistor tomorrow at 2nd link. But seriously I miss my gear indicator.

 

Anyway the sensitive throttle isn't just us with that problem. Worldwide having this problem. IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. Some ppl even say after putting race filter will help. Keeping my finger cross when mine arrived.

 

But I was also thinking that the bike mapping got to play a part. Our stock mapping was running way lean. Yesterday I met up with Fatal to see whether I got a solution for his problem. He mentioned that his 6th gear also got this sensitive throttle problem. I dun remember having this problem with my K5 G6. He say he only got this problem after he did TEKA and have his TPS adjust. So I told him to get his bike TEKA again and also his TPS re-adjust is necassary as these might be the one that cause the problem, afterall it did cause the problem after all those tuning. So this morning he did the TEKA and TPS adjustment at bikelab, and the problem is gone.

 

Somehow I think re-mapping play a parts. The reason why I ruling out the TPS adjustment is because I have PC3 installed. By right the PC3 will overwrite the stock TPS. So my throttle position should be okay.

 

Last but no least one more problem I have encountered. Gear indicator keeping changing number especially when you left the bike for a long time. YOu start it, warm up and ride off with 1st gear. Then you suddenly see the indicator change to 2 and back to 1 and again and again.. It keeps on happening untill the bike is running hot. Then everything is okay. Checked and it is supposingly to be OKAY as well. WTF......

 

Lastly those interested in DIY your own TRE but yet unsure can ask me for help. I can teach you in exhange for a cup of Teh xi less sugar. For those who are lazy to do, I can help you do and install for the price of $20. But I suppose the result is not that convincing enough for me to use it yet. Maybe I riding a 750 now. Compared to my old G6, it does feel more powerful. But for a 600 I think it should makes more diff. Anyway not saying 600 is weak cause I have seen a few 600 pickup on par with the new 750 and some even faster. Which makes me heartbroken.......

[kinwei]

Well some say changing of sprocket helps.. But I'm a bit skeptic about it. And everything is still so new..

So is it better or not ? Dis MT got say once that tis bike better to put the high comp gasket. Dat time i dono wat he talking about also. haha.. But wat do u mean by engine reliability will drop ?

 

 

 

[eFzek17]

so its either racewerks or unity to check for my bike?

 

btw wat coolant are u all using.. tot of trying the ice something somthing.. not sure.. anyone can assist me on that..

[fattsum]

hi guys... im planning to upgrade to liter bike next year.... looking at R1 or K7... anyone have a good idea? jus asking for more opinion... but im heavy on R1 already also which bike shop is good for bargain? im looking to trade in my current CB4 too...

Simply to say, with the high comp gasket installed, the cylinder internal will subject to higher compression which is not the recommended spec. This will also result in a hotter engine. I wouldn't say the engine will break down soon, but definately faster than a stock compression ratio. You want power, you definately have to sacrific some other thing. FYI, this MT also told a fellow biker that a new G6 should have it valve clearance done. Questionable

Err.. it bikewerks, not racewerks. But either one also okay.

surely got diff one. but its damn expensive

but i also heard that the stock exhaust is already very good.

sounds bad when the thermo is spolit. Any effect if not repaired? All bikes hv that ,isit?

all engines that comeswith cooling system, will have it.

 

If not repaired, then u need to overhaul your engine. Worse is u may need to change your block.

anyway how u noe ur thermo spoil liao

cause i took out the thermostat at the bikeshop after i discovered that my bike's coolant was leaking out badly as i was travelling on the highway ....
