Well, if its empty, it doesn't really serve any purpose does it? there's no filtration involved meaning its just like a longer pipe tats all....

Looks good... but dunno how big this is....

 

Anyway, the black plastic under your seat is removable by just taking out the two plastic fasteners at the sides.

Even the smallest spark can start a massive forest fire...

Think the theory is the oil vapour will 'condense' when reaching the cooler metal? :sweat:

Yeah but if the bottle is going to be near the engine then its not going to be very much cooler anyway...... :cheeky: Also, the vapour is not just limited to travel at the sides of the bottle. It can also travel at the centre where the colder metal has no effect.

 

But i was thinking if there was something inside to increase the surface area of contact between the vapour and some metal part then the condensation effect will be better.

Best is to have a flat piece of metal, with small holes inside in the middle.... or maybe a few layers. :sweat:

Take existing oil catch tank and modify? Cut open, weld in the plates then weld back together... :sweat:

How old is the bike?

 

The most irritating thing about this bike for me is the oil consumption is higher than normal... other than that it's perfect for my usage.

 

Oh and the fact that it is more difficult to find aftermarket suspension compared to other maxi-scooters... but not a major thing lah

Depends on which year you are getting. The K3 was ard that price when i bought it last year. But you probably can get it at a cheaper price. Was quoted 7k for a K2 by GHC tat time..... :giddy:

 

Look ard more. You can probably get a better deal. Gd luck!

Market price shld be $6K +-

 

Fuel consumption depends on rider.

I average 30~31 km/l nowadays... 340Km on 11L

The worst case for a burgy shld be 24~25 which isnt that bad.

 

Common major problem, Not that i know of other den EO disappearing ...

After some discussion with my mech i think we may have come up with a solution. Our intention is to use a brake fluid reservoir as the oil tank catch. It can be opened and is airtight. It also already has an inlet at the bottom which is needed. The only thing to do is to drill a hole somewhere at the top of the reservoir and place the tub in and epoxy the gap to make it air tight. Den add in steel wool into the reservoir and voila!

 

Think this might work?

Arcfire: Sounds like it might just work! but the area is rather small.... and it may be cheap to use an automotive fuel filter as some people have done in the BurgmanUSA forum previously.

 

Anyway I took out my K&N to wash, and also to see if that helps improve the oil usage problem a bit... now running with oil foam filter, actually I quite like the reduction in noise... :sweat:

 

Will monitor 1st for 1 or 2 weeks before deciding whether to put the K&N back.

Yo folks, as earlier mentioned I already went to view the bike at the showroom the other day. I'm still puzzled over the fact that it was best not to buy the bike from the showroom itself but rather at Suzuki's dealers.

 

Can anybody advise why? PM me if its 'confidential' information. Many thanks guys

I'm intending to place the reservoir on the frame of the bike inside the fairing somewhere at the burgman wordings.... so that the bottle will be at a higher level than the breather outlet. Only problem is, i won't be able to see the reservoir.

Distributor cannot sell at a lower price than the dealers otherwise no dealer will be willing to sell their bikes for them. Does this explain it? :D Standard industry practice. Of cos there are exceptions... :goodluck:
