hey bro

 

1) use gold, stick to gold. r u sure its one week? that means now ur 2t container should be half full since last sat. Noticed that ur exhaust pipe there is wet, lower ur 2t knob and see how lor...get e mech to do it

 

3) Contrary to popular believe which I was ignorant b4, don't see why 92 cannot be used. And how much difference in performance can 98 give...hehe...want performance juz open throttle...for me i noticed that formula 98 gives e best mileage for shell...car or bike...

no...esso 5000 for me last longer due to it's thicker contents i believe..

 

Example:

 

1st pump full tank on my k4 last me 234km before reserve

 

decided to try out esso 5000,manage to hit 270-290 before reserve..

 

same riding method and condition..

[CivicR]

Check with ur motor shop mech for info, U just need to worry how much U be paying for them, be prepare to pay $100 ++ min

hey guys whats so good about riding as subrider?

u can put a person with long riding experience as the main rider and u pay lesser for insurance premium covering both rider and subrider

guys i got a few questions to ask

 

1. for 2t, what is the recommened one to use? i am currently using esso gold which cost me around 17 bucks. my 2t can only last me 1 week plus so overall my 2t quite chor. what is the 2t u guys commonly use? cause i scared i use too lousy then will affect my bikes's engine.. just changed my piston btw.. buy from where and how much?

recommended one = the best u can get

qns is affordability

my bike also quite a heavy 2T drinker...

ard 1bottle per 1000KM

for me i find Castrol ActivX 2T sufficient already

it costs $4 per bottle frm LAB and has the same rating as Castrol R2

 

2. for engine oil and spark plug, what type of spark plug u guys use and engine oil? go where to do this service? and cost roughly how much?

im using normal NGK $3 plug and castrol R4

aiming to change to another brand of engine oil liaoz...realised R4 is really overvalued

 

3. lastly for petrol, i am using either 95 or when got $$ use 98. is 95 the min pump? will 92 affect anything?

used 92 for my SP before...nothing happened

been using 92 for my KRR all the way since i got it ard 1yr ago...till now also nothing happen...

still running well

 

PS: what im using may not be recommended by others...i admit i have a low budget

for me i find 95 gives e worse milleage...same riding style too upshift at 4.5 to 5k rpm

gonna do another retest

i see i see.. so the 1st 2nd or 3rd party insurance only cover the bike issit? Meaning insurance to cover the rider himself is separate huh?

ok i'll run e experiment again

 

so far for singapore shell, in order of best mileage for me at gear change of 4.5 to 5 k rpm is:

1) formula 98

2) 92

3) 95

4) vpower

 

i measured this by pumping right to e v brim, as in if u pump somemore, petrol will leak through e rubber thing near e side stand

1) and 2) give both about 220km b4 bike dies off then haf to on reserve...the range is quite big, vpower around 190++ km bike die off liao

 

i'll run my little bo liao experiment again and let u know

[bgoy]

i'll like to ask something

 

my left rear light never light up so i did a bulb change following e manual way, after that my right rear light never light up then i v fed up then i press and press e 2 lights then miracle both got light liao...heres e silly question...is it a new bulb gives brighter light? now my left side brighter than e right...why is this so, i thought they both draw e same current from the battery

 

also, after i did this then the front right side no light, why like that ah...i dun remember playing with any wires or going near e front...i also haven ride off then e front light gone liao...any wires i can play with?

in the insurance for the bike

u must state down the names of the rider and subrider (if any)

 

1st 2nd 3rd party is the different cover provided for the bike to be riden by either rider or subrider

e.g 3rd party is the most basic cover required & 2nd party adds on to 3rd party and offers cover in case of fire and theft of bike

u mean the rear suspension?

the other possibility is the front fork...

yr front fork got adjust lower?

when with pillion the bike heavier and the bike is lower than w/o pillion...so when approaching...slow down all the way and slowly go over...or else stop in front of the hump and put both yr legs on the ground and slowly ride+push using yr legs yr bike over the hump

sounds like yr bike is messing ard with u

u try check the wattage of the 2 bulbs u using for the rear brakelight bah...

one with higher wattage should be brighter

 

as for the front signal gone....maybe u open up the front and fiddle ard also?
