Hi,

 

Where can I buy a Engine Oil drain plug? and How do I know whats the right size for my Honda cb 125e

 

u can go eversucces or chong aik at jln lembu n ask if they have the manual for ur bike den from there u can get the parts no...n check if they have stock

 

or fjt at rowell road....

[moohaha]

For the drain plug, ask for the price with GST at some shops.

They quote some things without GST and add GST later on. Kena stunned a few times.

remember to get a drain plug washer with it too (:

Long time never post.

 

Here are some updates.

 

New bike. Similar to cbx250 twister.

API SG-SF oil

Dun ask dont guess.. too paiseh to say.

But 32-37km/L. One tank can go 650km

Top speed 150-160

 

Manual chart specifies 20w40 or 20w50.

Reccomended 20w50. So I will only use this grade as it helps me sleep better at night. No 10w50 15w40 5w40 or any other mambo jambo as the tappet sound bothers me.

 

Used maxima pro plus 10w40. Valve very noisy but smooth to cruise. When idling the sound of engine is very loud. Doesnt sound right.

Changed to castrol 20w40 activ. Worst **** oil I have ever used. Very hell of a difficult time to change gears but bike very fast hahaha. $5/L (JB)

Changed to mobil 20w50. Better but still have the remnants of hard shifting. Maybe got some castrol remainder in the oil?? Pick up is so sluggish. $7/L

Changed to silkolene 20w50. Purple sticker on a black bottle. For malaysia market only i guess as no pic of it on the internet. Solved my shifting issues 100%. $5/L (JB)

Currently on HDEO DELO silver 20w50. Feels similar to silkolene $5/L (JB) I think ill stick with this oil. I was hesistant to use hdeo and rotella t6 made my clutch slip a little. But when i saw this oil PDS has a motorcycle picture. Ok loh. onzzz hehehe API SG

yesterday just changed to turtle oil for my scooter after using up the Rotella T.

 

it felt ok. scooter felt lighter with it. going to see how it hold up for my 2,000 km OCI.

yo bro...where u get the silkolene 20w50 in jb eh for $5/L....great price by the way....

[Hydher]

you all dun mia leh.

 

I bought at castrol bike point. near the bhp petrol station from woodlands custom.

Its mineral lah.

 

I also found that chong aik got ester based semi synthetic silkolene at $12 per lit 15w50.

 

I went to a regular jb bike shop and he die die dun want me to use mineral oil for my bike. Didnt want to offend him so i got maxima extra from him at 58rm.

 

When we replaced the burned clutch plates it was dry eventhough the level is right.. weird.

never use before but from those little data that I can gather, I rather get something else.

[Hydher]

RP sae 10w40 didnt leave a good impression on me.On their site it write can use for bike but after a while gear hard to shift.

 

but im sure max cycle is btr. Some ppl like it in this forum.

[Hydher]

Silkolene comp 4 from chong aik.. You can get at unique motorsports as well.

 

Extremely pleased with this stuff. $12/L

Usually mineral oil at 1000km will be rough already(No ****)

Last time using maxima extra i dont remember it being as smooth as this. Changed it out at 2000km. Not pleased.

Now at 1700km still smooth..

 

Gonna compare with my favourite maxima pro-plus(not available locally)

It's probably bcos you used the wrong engine oil for your engine over a long-term period, unless your dragstar 400 is running on diesel engine.

[Hydher]

The mother of all diesel engine oil..

 

The rotella t6 is JMCA2(highest level motorcycle spec) Approved!

Anyone tried Lupromax? Thoughts on this oil?

Dun waste your time with Lupromax. Expensive lousy oil at 29 dollars a bottle.

It should be JASO MA2 spec.
