Few causes for ur problem

1) tyre valve might have cracked at the sides causing air to seep out slowly.

Solution: change air valves, L-shaped ones works best for repumping air.

2) under pressure of tyres causes slight cracks to develop. Dis causes tre unable to retain air properly as again air seep out.

Solution: check with foam to se if cracks exist. Best to change tyre to avoid unwanted mishaps.

3) if ur using metal valve cap, it tends to gain heat and expand. Causes air to seep out after a ride when heat travels from Tyres to the valves caps.

Solution: change to plastic ones. Retain air longer as it doesnt expand for air to seep.

 

Thanks for the info!

Hi, where could one change the L shaped tyre valves at? Autobacs? Or any tyre shop?

I have a diff problem with my HISS, but opp frm yours. My green lights dosent turn off for many minutes....

 

Might be wiring snap somewhere along the cable? Check if previous owner have instal any extra switch installed to immobalise bike, might accedentally switch off. Mine does have somewhere near the fuse box. Didn't realise untill recently. Please update your findings...

 

Gud Luck Bro

 

Bros,

 

My problem have been rectified.....the HISS is the main culprit. Gotten them changed to a new set with new keys. The old HISS wirings got burnt n I dunno how it happened. Sent to bike shop after days of trying to find the fault w/o any luck. The mechanic showed me the "blackened" wirings of the old HISS when he took out the HISS. Now my Buffalo is back!! :p

So now you have two sets of keys to use to open the fuel tank/ seat & ignition.. Seems leceh at first to carry but becomes handy wen refueling comes..

 

I changed my key sets early last year but did not op to change to the HISS due to cost. changed to the non-HISS key ignation type. didnt cost me much compared to your price list.

 

Now im just wondering if changing to non-HISS one will affect the current flow of the bike or not? cuz current relay will somewhat be affected.

 

Bro whiplash > is ur nick at FB, Fendz Az? Saw an add to friendlist by Dato vincent at VARA page..
