ur on a vxr06??...wait till u start to hav water in ur tank, clutch slip, worn out engine mountings, spoil switches, worn out rocker arm, corroded airfliter n stuff..well wont happen within a month of onwership lah of coz.

 

usual servicing no need to change clutch pads..only belt, rollers, u-clips, oil filter n engine oil at least for the next 1 year..change the ride aft 24mths

 

wat is cheap is maybe a honda kup wif juz engine oil n filter to worry abt the rest juz some cleaning n re-use for the next few years

Water go in tank only $30 mah, including wash carb.

But if you cover that bike, it won't happen that often also leh.

Clutch slip change clutch pads. Can tahan more than 10k leh.

Rocker arm and engine mounting lifespan is 3 years. Still considered quite ok to me.

Dayco belts can last more than 10km. Doc pulley can last around 10k also.

Corroded airfilter? Not that common lah.

My friend's VXR200 4 years plus liao, condition still great.

Another one just sold his 180, engine oil never change 1 year plus liao, still ok.

But outlook damn jialat lah.

I think you a bit exaggerated lah bro.

u hav to change the whole clutch ther r no pads to change unless u take a 2nd hand 1 out n start breaking it dwn n fixing it back...I nv know know Dr Pulley rollers can last for 10k km heavier weighted rollers do last longer but at most till ard 8k km then some uneven wear might be experience..if ur using anything 13.5g n lighter usually it is recommended to change every 5k km thus the norm is 2 roller change n 1 belt change of coz itz ok if u dun change it as u wont feel a BIG diff in performace but the wear n tear cause to ur other transmission parts will show in time to come..engine mounting lifespan is usually 3 years depends on how u use the ride..the 180 2stroke only has gear oil like maybe 250ml IF i can remember correctly used inside the gear hub which 2yrs nv change also nvm becoz autos runs on a dry clutch system..

 

nvtheless a runner is still a sweet ride to hav

pickup comparable to some 2B scrams lah..but not the ktm200 unless some mods r done..well auto bike's pickup is sure gd due to the CVT system n gear engagement thus our launching is always perfect n we will always be in the correct gear while the other rider still hav to figure out how to launch the manual bike at the "sweet spot" wher the peak power is n shift gears at the peak power of the bike is which even finding wher the "sweet spot" is a hell different story all over again

There is no SP50, runners come in 180CC, 2stroke and 200CC 4stroke.

NO problem going up to 140kph, but give it some margin of error.

Clearing the meter is possible too.

[sheep]

YAh la..

we just twist the throttle can liao.
