seriously lab mechanics,cmi one la. workmanship poor,service cmi,make u wait long long for a small thing. imo,xinghock will ask u to change when piston is losing its power whereas lab would most prolly tell u, still can use cos it really still can be used what,except no power lor.

not everyone is after performance wat.

some pple just dont need performance.

good parts? whatever for? can use can already.

dont change engine will spoil? spoil liao then say.

not safe to ride? ride slower lah.

 

u know those old man frequents ah boy, wat they say?

 

"bike can move can already"

 

i tend to second the old men more.

stock sp sprocket uses 40t..

lesser teeth = higher top speed

more teeth = faster pick up

more teeth = faster pick up

 

so more teeth is better in the sense of faster pick up, but how will the speed be, as in will the ride be smoother?

 

cos im not really particular with higher top speed, but more interested in the faster pick up and smoother ride :cheeky:

Depends la..Doesn't mean the bigger the sprocket the faster your pick up will be..Your engine also plays an important role..You use too big a sprocket your engine cannot "work" for that ratio also your bike will be slow..

If we are talkin in terms of bicycles it will also depend on the rear and front..I can give you a small sprocket..Say 25T and the rear 14T or 16T..You will have quick pick up but bad top speed..Also will have trouble gettin the front up..Switch that 14T or 16T for a 9T You will have slight better pick up but really better top speed and you might find it a little easier to bring the front up..So it depends on both sprockets and also how much power your feet can give out in one pedal..

 

The visor sure kena summon la..Even my clear visor only like 80+% only..Slightly tinted sure less than 70+% already..

racing sprockets are better cos they are lighter? not so sure but tats wat i heard..

 

-dude: u need to find the correct combination for sprocket sizes... not just say onli the rear sprocket.. just like wat compfused has elaborated.. visor is confirm $50 if tio caught.. anything more then 30% tint is illegal IIRC... if ur tint still can see ur face then nvm.. if totally cannot see then prepare to say bye bye to $50 when u see TP stopping u :) :smile:

dude do u even know what a spocket looks like ? racing spockets lighter ? how much lighter also only 2-3kg lighter at most. 2-3kg you go diet and lose the weight also better.

 

anyway h..k..l will tell anything to sell you something. when i bought my bike from them they assured me everything is stock. when i go agl, i found out nothing in my bike is stock. all mod before one. it is really up to you but after some time you might just shun the evil.

 

 

comfused: eh i did the petrol in a bottle thing already. haha. its quite troublesome but i guess i would be doing it more often. 1litre more of petrol "squeezed" from beyond the customs.

 

anyway everyone. malaysia has threatened to impose a toll on singapore vehicles going into malaysia. heard its 20rm. but so far its only threats in retaliation of the fact that malaysian vehicles have to pay to come to singapore. lets all pray to our individual gods and idols that it does not happen or else going to agl would costs us dearly and no more pumping petrol in JB for us anymore !!!

i am not hostile. i am sorry it seemed in my last message that i was. somethings typed words cannot adequately express our feelings. haha. just wanna warn you about H....K....L cause seriously i think they are very cunning businessmen and will carrot you without a blink of an eye. seriously.

 

ever since i found out they were cheating me, i stopped giving them any business already. only go back there to pay instalment then leave already.

 

voodoopinko, sorry man had to rush back to do proj. i think i wash my own bike got more satisfaction. plus if any scratches at least i am accountable for it. now my paintwork looks quite new i dun want pple touching it ! lol

do you know that even a lil bit of weight matters?

 

a smaller and lighter chain will result in less rotating mass(inertia? did i spell it right? :x). and u'll lose less HP to the wheel.

 

of course, going on a diet and losing that bit of weight... well it also helps :lol:

 

 

every bike shop will tell u crap just to sell the bike. actually every salesman will. maybe he'll lie a bit. maybe he'll lie a lot. anyway he'll still lie. just find out urself loh, u dont know shyt and go buy something sure tio tok one right?

 

 

i personally find it hilarious lar. why some ppl even bother to squeeze that lil bit more petrol into their tank? why bother to pump in another container? knn u becoming like the 'old' flykite :lol: :lol:

 

 

jeffrey83: maybe u might wana just try using cheap car polish to clean the rims? or use wd40/rp7? personally i use armorall's car wash. the blue colour liquid. very good to use imo
