wah ic u all FC all like very good hor? i wanna ask ya a qn.. wen do ya open reserve? when the gauge hit the red square? or when it realli hit rock bootm "E"?

 

i everytime pump like $10 onli can travel like 180KM den hitting the red square liao.. why liddat..

 

you can switch to reserve when your arrow hits the red square, but that is still not your full fuel consumption for full tank before reserve...its almost there but still not yet...to test how much you can hit before reserve, you have to wait till your bike die off while travelling halfway, but try not to do that unless you are able to calmly switch to reserve when you know that your bike dying.

[darren_soh86]

bcoz when reach red square liao go pump.. i open the cap and i still can see the fuel in the tank lo.. like still got quite abit leh.. my bike fulli stock cept for the pipe lo.. cant be dat bad rite? mileage onli 25K sum more..

hi, anyone know if i install a volt meter, is it useful?? or got anyother kind of meter tat is useful?? hee, is K&N air filter gd ma?? and the carbator....

a voltmeter is useful as a caution against low batt, i got a single color analog voltmeter on my bike

 

quite helpful in pinpointing my batt low problem of bike dying off when the needle(which used to idle ard 10-12V) drop to 8V when i start engine

 

for a cosmetic purpose u can install a 7 color voltmeter..haa which is $45

 

K&N filter has been discussed quite recently, you might refer to recent posts in this thread for more info

haha i always thought that mine 240km before reserve already very good liao...yours 250km...

yoz zlord, long time no see... haha, check out nightphantom, hes got 270km before reserve :thumb:

 

gotta get some tips on saving petrol(ie.$$) from him

[Ferrous]

the fuel gauge from own experience is normally not accurate

 

i normally ride until main tank empty(ie...when u rev, rpm dun go up but start goin down), when that happen, u can

1. take your left hand off the handle bar and turn the fuel knob to "res" on the move

2. wobble wobble wobble to road shoulder and do it stationary

 

personal pref is 1, but takes practise n like zlord says, calmness

 

2 is dangerous cos if theres any tailgaters den

i m going to try man.. humph* dun believe my beloved so bua kan..

 

aniwae how far approx can the reserve go? scared no station pump den can squeeze balls liao...

[Ferrous]

haha, yup...try be a lil gentler wif the throttle on lower gears and slowly pickup on higher gears, when cruising on expressway, maintain roughly same rpm(mabbe ard 6k), shud help in increasing fuel mileage

 

to you...and of cos, like everyone here does...fill up ur tank to the brim manz...yes, to the brim way above the metal bar(if you haven aredi done so )

 

from the manual, the specs states reserve as 2L, so assuming one litre can go abt 20+km, you can travel ard 40km... dats for my bike...so far haven do til empty and push yet.. haha...normally once switch knob to "res" i will be on my way to jb for my fave Synergy F1

[XtremeZ]

guys you all mostly tune your idling yourself or ask mechanic to tune? cuz i tried tuning to 1.5 rpm then after 1 night i start bike the rpm become 1.2 issit because the engine is still cold ?? and those $6.25 2T oil from shell issit good for the bike ? still very newbie hope to learn more and anyone staying simei/tampines next time can la kopi learn about maintance

[CivicR]

Woho manage to get my PC back online, damn.. stupid updates crash my whole system.. $^^&^&&

 

i everytime pump like $10 onli can travel like 180KM den hitting the red square liao.. why liddat..

 

Mine only 160km before reserve leh, definite need to go check liao. If not buay tahan on the petrol pumping..

 

Junyi need time U wana go makan and if I'm free then I come join U, I stay Clementi. Yeah more west sider liao. Not forgetting Entosol (all the best on your exam)

 

[J] thanks for the stainless steel screw will let U know if I want more.

 

Aidan need time do join us for more outing when there's one, ur bike look chio siah.

[Ferrous]

idling normally is 1-1.2k rpm...1.5 is alil on the high side...

 

but dun nid alwiz tune, cos sometimes u ride too long, the idling wil go alil higher...it shud drop back to normal after a while

 

try not to save on 2T manz, semi-syn is minimal and full syn is recommended, my piston jam before and it cost me a bomb to repair

 

best is either castrol R2 or esso gold both get from LAB at $12 per bottle

i scared drag too much gear spoil i got problem with going around places also... i very road idiot anyways to solve this ?

then dont drag yr bike so much...travel slower and look at where u r going lorz

the only way to recognise roads better = travel and get lost on the roads more often...learn it the hard way~
