Ok I found some info myself.

There are gear differences between manual and (DCT).

Rear Sprocket are different 43 vs (39), chain link 114 vs (112), primary and final drive ratio are different too.

 

So, back to my original question :p

What is the lowest speed at 6th gear or rpm for a smooth ride that you guys prefer or recommend for the manual gear? Thanks :)

Lowest speed at final gear would be 95km/hr. speeds above 105km/hr is sweetest for final gear. Sometimes, I'm at gear 5 most of the time at expressways.

 

Just collected my bike at Looi's today...

Shaved my seat,installed bike seat condom,bar brace,hand guards, engine sliders...

Need to get use to riding...

Any recommeded speed for running in?

Mileage for 1st servicing?

On manual nv state the speed,just avoid sudden acceleration and throttle...

 

Also to check,our radiator is water or coolant?

Congrats! For me, speed mostly 90+ on final gear during running in. 1st servicing should be at 800km. Read the owner manual. A lot of info inside.

 

BTW, where did you get for bar brace and how much did it cost?

6th gear for a smooth ride is above 100, usually i use gear 5 for legal cruising speed in sg

will the handguards hit the screen on full lock??

agreed on 6th gear...

on sg crusing 5th gear is comfortable...

anything less than 100km/h 6th gear will feel sluggish and not smooth...

 

realize hard to hit 4k rpm on normal riding...

 

anyway i got the brace at HTH...

 

the exact words from the user manual page 12 under "Riding Precautions, Running-in Period"

"During the first 500km(300 miles) of running, follow these guidelines to ensure your motorcycle's future reliability and performance. Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid acceleration. Avoid hard braking and rapid down-shifts. Ride conservatively."

 

another thing to ask, at what mileage will 1st bar drop on the fuel gauge?

sorry cause i used to ride a pulsar and my 1st bar drop only after 200+km... ;P

Hi Guys,

 

Just drop in to say 'hallo' to all the NC riders.

 

I am thinking of getting the Integra.

Hope it's a good choice.

 

I think Singapore only got 'White' and 'Dark Blue' here ...

Was hoping to get a 'Red' ...

 

May I know where is the best place to purchase the bike?

 

Should be getting it end of this month ....

 

TIA

Just got myself a mainstand. How difficult is to install a mainstand? Was told that the most difficult part is to install the spring.

Agree, you'll need a long screwdriver to facilitate stretching of the spring to its position.

Did they have to remove all switches and instrument on handlebar to slide the brace clamps in? I've something similar at home.

 

The handguard looks good too. How much? :)

yes have to remove the left and right switch clusters to fit the brace...

i asked looi's to installed my old brace which is shorter and my BMW grips...

found the brace too near my IU to mount anything on the brace...

hence opted for the longer one which can mount higher on the handlebar...

can't rmb the exact price of the handguard...

need to check back my receipt...

think is $80+...

i chose this cause of the 2 mounting points and there is a metal which runs through the whole length of the handguard...
