SBF X9 Cafe 2008 - Amalfi/Evo

[kennyseaw]

u mean lowering helps? wont the rider like be straightening up to look over the windshield and contradict the purpose of comfort of the X9? nevertheless, i'll go try later... thanks so much for the input...

 

 

another qns, wat's the normal RPM u guys will rev till before the bike moves off? i dont rev hard, but i haf to hit 4~ 4.5 then the bike will move... is that normal even on flat roads?

 

love X9!

 

 

Rpm moving off is normally @ about 2.5 - 3.5k for original

[kennyseaw]

dear X9-ers, my front brakes produce sound while applying to slow down the vehicle... is that dangerous or maybe juz some friction?

 

and also, before moving off... i see my electronic panel showing this blinking "OIL", but after about 10 sec or so, the blinking disappears... what does this imply?

 

newbie here, sorry if these are normal symptoms...

 

the blinking oil wording in the LCD panel is just a setting, it came on every 6000km and it can be reset. meet up one day and we will show you how to reset. Is normal

[kennyseaw]

Recently bike tends to backfire alot....haiz..sian..

 

Did you check the manifold? when is teh last time you change plug?

[melvintay]

Hi.

 

Currently using Motul 7100 (10W40) but not sure if the grade is most suitable for my X9 eventhough performance is good.

Btw, would a 15W50 oil increase FC since it is thicker?

 

Any recommendation of EO for X9 (and what grade)?

 

Thanks.

[shoei]

hi kenny, wind shield used one also can but good condition pls. Sms me at 98594275 k

had tried a few types of EO, to me personally dun really feel the different,maybe i've got bad sensitivity but mostly done on maxima 15w50.

unless you buy from private owner,anything wrong the bikeshop should help you fix up FOC even though if they only give you just 7 days warranty,it is still within warranty period.

[rayhunter]

wat u mean a lot of school fees? something happened?

 

maybe he had done up his bike..now nice nice..

[mattbrock]

hi all X9ers, wats e actual speed for x9 180. been over 1 month riding, its a great bike. but slowly a few problem arise so sian eh.. 1st the screw broken then now the left part also lost some of the screw (its the part below the air filter; eone where the belt is). Aiyo so suwe. hopefully e whole bike wont fall apart bfr i send to repair.

Q1.. how much estimate for full servicing?

Q2.. is it still possibly to rethread after it being done once( had to add there are still some part of screw left it at te gasket bottom part hole also become bigger)

Q3.. how much speed can u reach for X9? i notice my bike slowly the speed getting a bit slower.. at first time i bought it it can reach 80km/hr in a few sec ard 7 sec of riding n i dont have to throttle hard even. now it took much longer time to reach 80.

Q4.. how much is the box?
