Hi Everyone....

 

I'm getting an NSR SP soon and need your advise on several things:

 

1) The Fuel consumption? How many km/litre?

2) What type of insurance is better for this bike? Comprehensive/2nd party?

3) What should I check first when I get bike...?

4) Any long term issues/problems that I should be wary about?

5) Any shop to recommend, which is highly skilled in servicing/repairing NSR SP bikes?

 

Thanks for your help, bros and sistas...

1) Average SP FC is about 20-25km/l.. if u wan better FC, tune ur SP to lean settings but it might give u problems... if ur considering to buy sp, u shudnt be tinking too much about the FC cos sp is a 2stroke and sports bike... if u wan good FC, just get kup kia

 

2)3rd party like congx recommend...

 

3)get someone who have ride sp and knowledgeable on bikes, to follow u to check on the condition... anyway, prepare an additional $400+ just in case anything happens... dun be in the situation where u can afford to buy the bike but cannot afford to repair when u crash *touch wood la*

 

4) basic wear and tear like chain, sprocket, tyres and much more others... maintain ur bike like ur wife and it will love u back

 

5) i rather go jb to service my bike cos the mindset of singapore motordiams is to chop u... or if ur frens know any of the bike shop owner, u can oso go there to do...

 

anyway, enjoy ur ride when u bought it remember to join us for outings when u gotten ur bike

 

on hunting ur wife

1) for me.. the FC is 30.1 km/litre.. dunno how the previous owner tune one.. quite fuel economical..

2) i got 3rd party + fire & theft from NTUC.. but if u buy comprehensive.. u can claim if there are any accidents n u can't find the culprit.. eg. for me is my bike got sabo.. den gotta pay the damages myself..

3) i got my neighbour to check for me.. but if u get pple like Samuel or ravenSP to help u.. i think u can get a good deal.. they are the pros.. haha..

4) if u plan to ride the bike for long, like me.. den juz maintain it well.. be willing to spend money to keep ur bike in the best form.. loving ur bike is like loving urself.. haha..

5) i did my research online in SBF.. the recommended shops in SG will b PlanetMotors, BikeWerks.. these are the 2 motordiams tat are super duper highly recommended by SBF forum pple.. or u can go JB with the SP riders.. i will go n try.. for 2B bikes.. going JB will b saving half the money.. but the parts used mayb inferior to SG..

 

 

i dunno.. juz i hav learnt these past 1 mth.. correct me anyone.. i'm newbie.. hohoho..

nguoren,

 

1) what figures did u use to derive this number? avg is 20 -25, my ex-sp was so called very fuel saving liao also running at 27km/L only. how did u get 30.1km?

 

2) sp u can't get comprehensive insurance i think. it's a old and crap enough bike that no one really want to steal to sell across the border (although pple will steal more for nuisance). anyway TPFT is enough, nugoren if u claim against your own policy your next premium will have 30% loading and u lose the NCD.

 

3) agreed. get someone who really knows the bike well to go see for u. that means getting a knowledgeable sp rider and not a knowledgeable krr rider. also as per death7878 yes pls standby cash on hand for repairs cos unless u very heng i think u going to get a sp which was once a heap of junk now back on road.

 

4) u can't be riding the sp for long. how long u want to ride? 10years? most pple throw the sp away after getting 2A. some hold on until class 2. but if u are seeking a transport bike for daily usage, then sp is not really that suitable. get a rxz or a 4-stroke (recommended) if u are using it for transport only. all 2-strokes break down after some time even with your tender loving care. why? becos they are 2-strokes!

 

5) just follow the others and go JB to service can liao.

flykite: this is how i calculate the fuel consumption; after pumping full tank for my bike.. i take down the mileage.. den i juz ride my normal lor.. so the next time i wanna pump again.. i take down the mileage again.. from there i can know how many km i hav travelled den with the refilling.. i know how many litres i needa top up my take.. with the 2 figures.. i'm able to roughly know the FC per litres.. is it right? hehe..

it's normal to think that you have 5 gears, because you count the number of times you kicked up from gear 1 to gear 6, which is 5. initially i thought my bike had 5 gears too, lol.

gear 1-kick-2

2-kick-3

3-kick-4

4-kick-5

5-kick-6.

 

there you go.

btw is there anyone here with the number plate FU86? saw him yesterday at bukit batok, haha.

so is there any outing or no outing? I wanna play abit more before i change bikes, haha. I think i'll miss riding SP, but right now i'm actually abit sick of it. the noise it produces! sigh.

eh lacer....dun always say wan come out in e end nv leh....lol...btw the FU86 is white/blue one issit? last time e previous owner stay my hse here de...bt he sold it off....

like that buay zhun one lah

 

how:

1. ride until dry

2. push bike to petrol station

3. set pump for 10 litres exactly

4. put fuel gauge to res

5. ride normally until dry again

6. note mileage and divide by 10 for FC

 

or (not so accurate)

 

1. pump full to brim

2. put fuel gauge to res

3. ride until dry

4. see mileage

5. push to petrol station to pump to brim

6. divide by number of litres pumped

 

if the tank u never use until dry u will never get an accurate figure.

 

u can standby one spare bottle of petrol so u dont need to push bike to petrol station.

[Gallantine]

Hey Powieee,what a nice coincidence to see you OTR in tampines 2 times within an hour. lol

 

Anyway,nice bike
