The knocking or jerky feeling at rpm 4+ to 5 is normal and very common on SP.. Get ur mech 2 tune ur bike properly 2 reduce the jerky feeling.. the knocking sound is from ur loose clutch housing and tat's common too.. no need 2 worry 1..

 

If in the morning very hard 2 start ur bike juz turn on ur key pull and choke and kick start.. after 1 or 2 kicks the bike will start (dun need to open throttle).. hold the choke for a while and den push it back in and let ur bike warm up for abt 5 mins.. If there alot of smoke when ur bike starts tat's normal and if after riding there is still alot of smoke maybe ur 2t intake is 2 high and also maybe u pour 2 much 2t in ur tank.. Hope this helps... :cheeky:

i think what he mean is the fuel tank , where by when left overnight since 2t n petrol are of different densities therefore i think 2t which is of heavier compound will sink down to the bottom of the tank, therefore when u want to start ur bike, 2t will be flowing into ur piston instead of petrol

Good and bad is just the difference between perceptions.

ahh :sorry:

 

haha

 

well in the 2T tank(the underseat one) of coz u can pour it too full , its fine since the 2t pump controls how much 2t is being released into the block.

 

but what slize could have meant is the guy could have poured too much 2t into the fuel tank. (some pple abandon 2tpump n use premix instead. pouring 2t into the fuel tank is known as premix).

SPChoo: isnt that it? the petrol leaks out. if you pump at mobil(the one nearest customs) and fill it to the brim, wont your petrol leak out a lil when making that U turn back to customs?

 

oh well, all wana save a few cents nevermind, to each his own

 

 

i just find it funny. :lol:

hmmm... dunnoe about that U turn but definitely SPs cannot have the petrol pumped till there is no more space cause of those holes.

haha SPchoo: u running 2t pump is fine already,

 

just premix u must always shake the bike to make sure the 2t is evenly spread out and this is something u can be so sure , and i'm not sure also

 

but if use premix use better 2ts like those fully sync kinds.

hmm... that time HKL change bleed my front brake it took 20 mins max... minus off the time he was looking at other bikes that is. in all, with the mech slacking and walking around it took 40 mins to bleed my front brakes. rear brakes i not sure but i dun see the whole process taking more than an hour.

20 mins.. so fast..?? hmm den how come my fren took soo long to do bleeding?? hmm.. btw u change the brake hose too issit??

nver put also okay lah bro..

 

i myself dun do premix.. later more smoke man.. i dun like..

 

so evey morning when we start our bikes.. its recommended to shake the bike first.. let the 2t and petrol stored in the carb mix properly first den start.. if we never shake first.. den, just like bro Congx said, 2t go inside chamber first and more white smoke cum out..

hey guys.. i gotta question..

 

how long does it take to do "bleeding"??

 

my fren told me dat when he changed his brake hose the other day, it would take quite some time.. depending on luck.. cos he said when he do bleeding for his new front brake hoe it took him an hour.. but when he do bleeding for his new rear brake hose.. it took him 3 hours!!!!

 

:giddy:

 

is dat really true ah bros?? cos i dun wanna waste 5 hours in a workshop looking at the mechanic pumping my rear and front brakes!!

the mechanic took roughly 40mins to bleed both my front and rear brakes cos i changed to steel braided hose... i tink wont take more then 1hr la...

thanks for the help bros.. it has cleared all the queries in my head... :))

Assumption is the Mother of All F**k Ups

yeah of course when i do it when theres no car. midnight i did that only. anyway so it is possible to make it straight? but need more time?

u mean by riding on the bike free hand can the allignment made straight? oh no no... it cant. need to go down bike shop n they do it for u. last time do it b4... the whole process don take much of your time.

 

U know, when u go for inspection, theres clamp clamping your F & R tires. its checking for your bike allignment. the allignment could be gone even if its jus slight drop. so i always do tat to DIY check. Not encourage u ppl to free hand la... jus stating the importance of allignment n how i check. :sweat:

I think castrol GO 2t is not fully synt... Advisable to use Fully synthetic one if you want your engine lifespan to be longer... About pouring 2t into your tank... It's up to the individual... But i don't see the need... Why pour 2t into tank when u already have a tank to hold your 2t and mix it with fuel?

 

kekekeke... Just my worthless opinion! :cheeky:
