Hey guys, made a trip to Ban Hong this afternoon cos i suspected that there was some kinda of engine oil leakage. After some inspection by the mech, confirm leakage and they started working on my bike. I waited for 40mins before they finish their job and they charged me $50 for changing a "tensioner". Any idea what is it? I was a little surprised as i thought the bike is still under warranty. Is the "tensioner" considered part of the engine?

[matkental]

lol i have no idea what that is. im still a motor noob. hahah.

got warranty ah? i thought u bought it elsewhere?

My engine oil leakage is at the left side i think cos the area near to my gear pedal is stained with black oil marks. Too bad i did take a photo of it before cleaning it up.

Wha, you even wax your rim??? Looks like i'm not taking good care of my bike huh.. Normally i'll just flush it with water & run my hand over the surface acting like a sponge.

 

I bought a bottle of "turtle wax" ,the brand, from NTUC last month but has only used it 4 times.. hahaha...

i bought carplan brand. it had autowash wasing liquid and a 500ml wax also. and it just cost 8 somethin...i washed using the liquid first..not much of a use with dat, then once dried, used the wax with a dry cloth on all the parts of the bike..but can't say its like new,still some unremovable stain dots sort off......rims look much cleaner though now...

 

do make sure the wax u using can be used on metallic parts also..and watch out all the rubber parts esp the tires, it goes white if u leave for sometime...also thinkin of paintin it gold like the some of da super 4 rims....nahh no more spendin...

just incase u dont know how to check the engine oil level..der's a small circular transparent level indicator in the rite side, just like the one for brake fluid in the handle..bro don't change unless level is low..

try to check ur manual. there's this knob which can adjust ur brake light sensitivity

 

anyway, u can do a search ard the forum for the difference of EO, i want to tell you also, i dont know hwo to put what i understand into words.

Hey matkeltal, i faced something like you're facing right now but has been rectified. My case was that when i press the front brake, there's no light but when i press the rear brake there is. I went to Ban Hong and they just touch touch here & there then can liao. Think could be due to the wiring. Maybe you could go down too?

[s32]

Hey guys, wanna ask if anyone knows of any jack that's suitable for bikes? Think with a jack we can clean, lubricate & stuff like that better right?

Hmm... here is another pic... I look underneathe, it seems to be like leaking from the part where the main nut was unscrew when u change engine oil... havnt go and ask mech to take a look... too lazy...
