i cant remember where i heard from. but someone told me engine perform better during the summer than winter. dunno how true.

cannot compare summer with winter. At winter temperature, almost all liquid will freeze and that includes your coolant. Your engine oil is also almost near "freezing" point depending on the type and grade of engine oil u are using.

 

So at that kind of situation, which car or bike can perform well?

Guys... Just a simple question regarding R1 01 model...

 

When temperature hit 104c the fan will switch on... Then when i off my engine but left the switch n the fan on, the fan still continue to spin.

 

But why when the fan spin when the engine is off, the temperature still remain the same n hardly go down?

cause at 104 deg, the heat will trigger the thermostat to allow more water to rush into your engine block to cool down and also at the same time, the fan is triggered to help to cool down the coolant as it returns to the coolant tank.

 

The cooling down process will take some time unless u using those water-wetter or anti-freeze coolant which helps the cooling down faster.

engine temp won't drop izzit?? pour water lo. better with alot of ice, result is guaranteed.

haha bro, water is still ok, but ice water, ice or maybe dry ice MAY result in cracks in your engine block ....

The slip on he means end-can.... As there r 2 kinds of end-can fitments... Slip on and Bolt on..

 

pc3 is call power comander 3. It is a component which stores yr inlet outlet settings and so on...

 

N aboutv the catalyst i not sure if will be caught by TP ant.. But i think is abit ex..

 

 

All R1 Bros... Correct me if i m wrong....

 

Originally posted by leslayer@January 14, 2007 01:38 am

slip-on = after market end cam.

pc3 = power commander

the rest, find alj for more answer. thks

there's a few others who are good in knowledge also. Just that they don't know why did not post lor ...

so their temperature never go as high as the r1..

er bro, actually from the riders feedbacks that suzuki, honda and kawa's temperature can go as high as the R1s also (talking about the engine temperature and not the underseat exhaust heat) cause nowadays, the manufacturers purposely use very light aluminium for the chasis as this helps in taking away the engine heat faster, making the bike more flickable through a series of corners and easier handling

removing the catalytic convertor and ex-up valve of an R1 might enhance your upper rev range power output abit if u have aftermarket can fitted on ... your low end will be affected , your bike will be a bit high-rev...If PC3 and highflow airfilter is installed then it will not be so bad...

 

Your bike will have least "back-pressure" to help you push your bike at low end 2 - 3.5krpm if u mod your whole exhaust into a ""all-thru" system ...

 

Another thing is that installing k&N or BMC highflow airfilter will not lower

the temperature of your bike (especially R1 with stock underseat exhaust).

 

Correct me if I'm wrong...

 

 

 

yup, installing the BMC or K&N filter does not help to lower the temperature of your bike. Its more of allowing more air intake only. The person who say this is cause she has been "con" by the cough cough shop boss last time

what's a slip on and what's a pc3?? and hor... this bike shop ask me to remove my catalyst.... say got 2 in my exhaust and wanna charge me $280 for removing them

 

 

how will it help, and is it advisable to remove them??

eeer

for 04-06 model, the full system consist of 3 parts

header, ypipe and exhaust

 

i only heard of people removing the catalyst in the ypipe, never for exhaust. maybe i'm too suaku and not know about it.

removing catalyst is only around 30.

 

meng tong recommend me last time to change the ypipe to after market. something about it being slimmer compared to the stock ypipe, and better performace. in what way, i not sure.

 

removing them = better "air flow" in the y pipe section which will make it less hot while riding.

install a arkdesign turbo timer to solve ur waiting issue ba keke....still ve digital RPM,air/fuel mixture reading n c02 sensor reading keke...then ur R1 will b lyt rex or evo liao

vidz taught me once n it works.....when temp rch 106 when off engine....wait for few 10secs n start bike throttle abit then off....the temp goes down almost 98c....so will ts action coz any harmful side effects bo??

Hmm......racing car team r more rich then....alwaz saw them pour dunoe ice/dry ice into engine after drag race to cool down the engine parts.....block of bikes wont crack tat ez due the thickness ba....unless u talking abt the clutch/engine cover....

 

*pai seh ar bro,i dun understand tats y i ask keke hope u dun mind...

then possible to create cold air intake for bike de engine ma??

BMC/K&N filter is for ur inectors/cab...in ur airbox u will find another 3 tube below....the 1 with higher tunnel is the breather for EO,the slimmer is the waste tube returning ur vapourise EO to its original compartment n the larger is the engine de air intake,possible to reroute it to exterior with filter for better cold air intake to cool down the engine faster???

I don time myself for warmin up leh.. I go off when my temperature hits 50c

No bad reviews that I've heard of, I've used them on the track personally, I went 3 months on the same pair of Maxxis. Wear is minimal but grip is good.

 

Maxxis is not a very big tire brand among sportsbikes. Therefore they're abit underrated.

 

The same set of tires, a certain R6 has done laptimes of 1.43 at Johor Circuit. So the performance of the tires shouldn't be in doubt.

 

seems to b a nice pair of rubber with good looks....bt bro,will it b lyt...erm...upz performance for 1st few mths then bwang performance after 4-5 mths??

So far, have not heard any bad comments about it. Personally I used them for 3 months at track on the same set of tires. The grip is still consistent. So it should be good.

So at that kind of situation, which car or bike can perform well?

so does the bike perform better at 50 degree F? or at 86 degree F?

perhaps install double mini fans or a bigger fan will do the job,bro.

 

Well, hardly the temp will go down much unless u travel at high speed for our

 

bikes to cool down .

change a bigger radiator?

When you off your engine, your water pump stops working. Therefore, your fan is cooling a stagnant block of water/coolant in your radiator. The temperature of this block of water/coolant in your radiator will go down, but not in other parts of your cooling system.

 

I believe R1's coolant temperature sensor is no where near the radiator. Hence, the temperature does not show a drop.

 

As for your Suzuki, I believe it's coolant temperature sensor is located very near the radiator. Hence, the temperature drops.

 

may i ask where does the sensor located and what it looks like? Thks.

why does Sukuzis hv two radatiors, the upper portion and the lower portion?

bigger surface area for radiator means more efficient heat exchange. but will take up more space and thus decreasing aerodynamics.

[milan]

heard from the met office that its gonna be a rainy day today.. pls remember to bring your rain coats.

[Deltaboi]

change to a bigger fan...

 

anyone noes where to get it done??

How does $290 for a set of tires including installation sounds to you ?

 

Maxxis Supermaxx at S$290.
