Anyone experienced knocking sound came from the engine or rear tyre?

 

When does this happen? For me, i do experience some rattling noise upon slowing down. Usually when the transmission alot of dust and dirt wen long time nv service. No issue. Try and narrow down on where the noise come frm.

Trade in for tyres? Never heard of it... To say the truth, those who know better secretly call the stock tyres "Suicide Tyres". Which nearly became true for me too several times when I was still on them... But actually if your bike is only used for going straight, and in good weather, then they're okay.

 

Bro... its not so bad lah. Don scare ppl like that leh.

 

I still on stock, 11k plus mileage still ok lah. Not eaxactly all straight. Wet road just don't push it.

 

Anyway if wet road, no matter how good tyres I am on, I will not push it. The so called best wet rd tyres like Michelin pilot rd 3 also has its limitations. I have tried and have experienced skid as well (on a diff bike).

 

So it all boils down to rider control. React wisely to road conditions and know your limitations. All will be good.

 

Cheers all n ride safe!

If you're riding a bike but not calculating the 50 possibilities in the 50 meters of road ahead of you, then you're dangerous and shouldnt be on one.

Haha! Okay, okay. Full disclosure: I've done Genting, Bukit Tinggi, Cameron, and other twisty country roads with them. And I survived! Just a little "exciting"! ;P

Ok! Point noted... so stocks still not so bad . But if got chance will change to better ones. It is the only rubber that contact to ground. Safety 1st!!!

Yup, after Durex, tyres are the most important rubber.

Any bros out there got workshop lobangs for installation of speakers on rear box and front compartments? Just saw a piaggo MP3 few days back with sound system in front compartment. Buay tahan liao! Haha!

Either the belt or the rollers. Dust build-up prevent the smooth movement of the parts inside the transmission. Actually i can clean the CVT as well. Can contact me. Cux i knw some of u guys have trouble trying to go to shops during office hours.

Can also bro. Hws ur box? Ok alr?

 

Box they giving 1 to 1 exchange. Ill probably be using it for temp purpose and will be getting a GIVI.

 

Mah has priced GIVI at exorbitant rates. Ebay italy including shipping is way cheaper than getting it locally.. How ridiculous.

 

Mah must order and wait 2 months some more. Waste ppl time.
