Bro 2_wheeler, can you make it ??

just sms to him, he cannot make it, will sms bros after lunch to confirm. if interested can sms bro sid or bro roger. thanks.

[josean]

am going to HDY later tonite so i went to have final check on my bike before going.

recently complaining of squealing sound from my belt/clutch area when moving off from stop to go. but once it moves off the sound no more liao.

 

problem is worse with pillion and moving upslope.

 

anyway in short, took out belt and see and realised that there was a slight tear in the belt. dont know how long more before it gives way. rollers still in good shape. everything costs me 145 + 30 for everything done. dont know whether expensive or not.. but thats not the point

 

the main thing is service your belt before something goes really wrong on the NSH. bike only hit 18k mileage.

 

so when u hit 24k and the v belt light comes on, u might wanna consider a checkup

 

above is just fyi to fellow silverwingers. lazy to organise article lah...

Cat on my scooter..

 

Seems like the seat has become a nice bed for that cat. Same cat sleeping on my bike some more.

 

Every morning have to wake that cat and clean its fur off my pillion seat before I can ride out to work.

 

Ok I admit I am not really a cat lover.

 

But I can't be cleaning its fur every morning.

 

Guys any suggestions? I may have to cover the bike as last resort.

so far only once i found my ENTIRE bike seat covered in fur... long and silvery... and pee stains down my backrest... *ARGH* ...

 

hahah but i like cats... so I just clean and ignore. Maybe becoz its only once so far. Then 1 night I came back and saw this silver cat lurking around... I know its him (or her)... same fur colour, I walked away then saw it 'beoing' all the bikes, stopped at mine for a while then carried on. *whew* wanted to scare it off if I saw it hopped on mine.

 

ANYWAY enough stories, I read in this forum before that pepper helps. Just sprinkle some on the seat and they should avoid it.

[william_liu]

Try mothballs, works for me so far....

Bro if you cover it then it will be more comfortable for the cat. I had the same problem, mine she even scratch my seat when she woke up from sleep. I sprinkle some white pepper on the seat and the cat don't dare to sleep on my scoot again

PLEASE DO NOT DO THAT!!!

They will take the cat away and put it to sleep forever!

Dont put mothball also, some cat will eat it and die of poisoning.

Lavender or thyme will repel cats.

You can get those lavender potpuri and sprinkle some on the seat. It smell nice to human but shitty to cats.

 

We only have one life so is the animals.

U should noe their working style. Die die its their policy cannot let people make copy even if u buy a silverwing from them

[Guest cheeko]

hi guys, pls also pm me ur hp no. So its easier for me to contact u guys to arrange.

 

After which when everybody confirm, u guys can transfer $$ to my POSB account. So if everybody co-operate then u guys can get the manual faster.

 

Then we arrange for meetup maybe at kallang KFC to collect loh, i can't do delivery to everybody also

Hi Bro Ni+3KiDz,

 

Welcome to the SW club.

 

Yeah it is normal. is yours a first hand or second hand ? As mine is a second hand, the previous owner had a undersize IRC tyre on the front, then i change all the tyre to bridgestone hoop, and during high spped the handlebar wobble, then i took out the front wheel balancer lead stud and no more problem liao. Check if it is s stock tyre size if yours a second hand.

 

 

Maybe we can meet up next friday nite to chat up with other SW bros..

:smile:

maybe you can check the size of the tyre is it correct ? can refer to the silverwing tech corner. if it is correct, can try to take out the stud, ( remember to put a gaffer tape as a marking on the spot after you take out, so that if you need to put back) then go to the highway and try.

 

As for slow speed as you describe 50 Km/h wobbling of handlebar, i also have a bit of it, what i know of is the tyre that is the cause, so got to live with it, still not as bad as high speed wobbling...

 

mau=ybe can pm me your hp no. for next friday's gathering.
