hey how u know u use 1 litre already? as in how u check u travel how long for 1 litre?

[mattman8881]

distance travelled$ divide by amount of petrol pump...

Last pump mileage 1200

ride 300km...

now 1500.. go pump petrol(maybe 10 litres)...

1500 - 1200 = 300km travelled.

 

300km divide by 10litre= 30km/litre..

i usually store mileage in my hp after i pump... tht way i wont forget...

[matkental]

oh so do it "manually". i also store in my hp but sometimes trip meter stuck at 99km. den dulan alr. lol

[nelo]

trip meter always stuck one la.. just calculate manually lor.

 

i always fill to the brim. then take down the mileage, after riding for 300km. i'll fill to the brim again and see how many litres used up.

 

do the maths and you'll get your FC.

 

damn troublesome right...

[mattman8881]

same here... also stuck at 99.. went that time just buy, discovered the problem, go ban hong, the mech dismantle the meter and spray wd40... maybe it work well for a few days.. after that stuck again....

[nelo]

hahaha. wah so far all 3 comets here trip meter stop at 99.. maybe its meant to be.... haha.

[matkental]

haha today tripmeter finally pass the 99 km mark. now at 102km. wah so if wan count FC den must use petrol until finish? no reserve tank so mafan...

[nelo]

got reserve what.. mine meter all the way finish, still got 3litres in tank (thats reserve i assume).

 

then i fill to brim = 14litres

hey guys lol i was the one who took over chawanmushi's comet. im still very newbie with bikes. can you guys like leave msn or something so i can ask you guys easier? i just sent for servicing because cabrator loose or something. once i dropped my bike on the curb then pillion foot rest broke. the seat is high and im short like 165cm tall and frequently get leg cramps when mounting the comet. lol

[ahment]

ohh and my trip meter stops at 99 sometimes 199 lol. and also i find that the milage meter ait buey zhun. i move like 300metres only but the meter jumps like 1km O.o this happens to you guys?

[nelo]

hey ahment. nice to know you're here. i'm ricky, andy's friend.

 

165cm for comet is indeed abit beh steady leh. try asking the mechanic whether can lower the fork or smth, makes your life easier. i'm 174cm and i sometimes have problems reversing haha.

 

stretch when you get cramps.

 

PMed you my msn. see ya!

[nelo]

my mileage meter is working ok leh. how can 300m become 1km......... kinda weird.

 

ask chawanmushi :X

[driftbaker]

hey guys! regarding the fc drop, did u check the tyre pressure? incorrect pressure may reesult in increase of drag, thereby a drop in fc performance. possible oil leakage? or maybe just mileage trip meter error? hehe

[nelo]

oh maybe lor. i'll check my tyre pressure tmr haha. so how you gonna respray your rw? haha.

[mattman8881]

got reserve what.. mine meter all the way finish, still got 3litres in tank (thats reserve i assume).

 

then i fill to brim = 14litres

 

I guess, when the meter point to empty,thats the warning of better go fill up... max i ever pump was 16.07litres.. Lucky i go pump.. if not sure stuck on expressway..

[mattman8881]

and i sometimes have problems reversing haha.

 

 

Comet is a heavy bike... most website say our bike is at 150kg(I think is dry weight).. After riding for awhile, try moving those smaller size 2B bike...then u realise how heavy comet is..

haha but its good practice la. i dont think we'll get problems passing 2A after riding comet.

[driftbaker]

oh maybe lor. i'll check my tyre pressure tmr haha. so how you gonna respray your rw? haha.

 

i'm thinking of doing it white, with Initial D stcikers. haha. ever saw one spark did tat. damn chio la.. haha...

[matkental]

hey guys lol i was the one who took over chawanmushi's comet.

 

hi ahment. so ur comet is fitted with the acerbis diamond headlight replica?

[matkental]

hey guys i read somewhere that the common prob with this bike is that sometimes when bike is stationary, hard to get it to neutral gear? sometimes when i wanna start my bike, it jerked forward and assume it is not in neutral even though the green neutral light is on. it happened to me twice b4 but luckily nobody or else damn paiseh! lol. but when moving, kicking it to neutral is not a problem.

[nelo]

haha wah thats unique. but is it expensive to do that kinda respray? 200bucks?

to get neutral, i'll rev slightly and let go of clutch while lifting the gear lightly with my toes. once the bike inch forward like 1cm i'll get neutral - without a problem

 

try it after some time you'll get used to it.

 

matkental, if starting your bike in neutral still cause it to jerk forward, try clutch in before you start. i keep it a habit to clutch in when startin bike. safer also. haha.

[matkental]

"to get neutral, i'll rev slightly and let go of clutch while lifting the gear lightly with my toes"-that's what she said! lol. hmm clutch in when neutral and start the bike? according to amran won't that damage the bike or issit 1st gear and clutch in that damages the bike?

[matkental]

 

oh hey if you wanna trade headlights call me k. hahah

btw yours not stock headlight meh?
