I was riding thru rain yesterday from JB all the way back to bukit timah... was soaked until my shoe even collected a decent volume of rain water.... my skin turn red from the beating of the rain while going at 100kph...

 

i noticed the engine performance decreased, i cannot peak the engine above 8500rpm, top speed went down from 120 to 100-105kph... but it was okay coz my avg crusing is 100kph.. eh something else happened...

 

i exited at clementi road.. at the junction red light.. stopping.. my clutch kick down.. some how it got stucked... i force kick up... it stuck at top gear... then kick down... can't find my 1st gear.. this time i stomp the clutch with moving back and forth the bike .. then it manage to go 1st gear..

 

preety scary incident... but managed to shift to the proper gears with force.. i tink the water build up somewhere that makes the clutch stuck... Anybody same problem when riding thru rain?? Bare skin like me.. play hero.. lol.

my suggestion is tat if u r not going to buy oem tyres.

don't go for oversize tyres.

front tyre 110/70 is common in the market.

rear tyre 130/70 is the next best even though is bigger.[/b]

Hiaz.. a bit late for me.. my rear is 140/70.. it screwed up my sprocket ratio (14/42T) and now can max at 103-105 km/h at most.. FC also went up due to this.

Now trying to get 15T front sprocket but those available at CKA's are local made and may have adverse effects on the shaft in the long run. Any idea where I can get Japan made ones?

wat brand engine oil r u using??

i think castrol eo r too thin for rw.

try other brands like fuchs or motul 20w-50 multi-grade.

Engine oil in my engine consist of 2 mixes..

1st) is shell eo...

2nd) a 2T eo.. its volume is very little, its packaged in small cylinderical sardine can sizes.. when added into the the engine before addin the shell eo.. it looks like greenish gel.. to wash it down into the engine from the funnel, the shell eo is poured and together it goes into the engine.. not sure what brand name it is... not even sure if i did remember if it has an performance increase.. all i remember when it was in my engine, i felt satisfied and happy.... its cheap.. about 12 to 15 ringgit..

To uncle stsoh,

I from malaysia, i am looking for 42T roadwin rear sprocket. currently i am using honda CG sprocket for rear sprocket but in penang this model had maximum 38T available in market only. Can you recommend any other bikes model that match the roadwin rear sprocket. I am searching all over penang island for my rear roadwin sprocket. front there are no problem, because it used yamaha RXZ sprocket and it widely available and can be bougt at 8 ringgit only( 4singapore dollars)

thanks u for the help...

 

To mightybo...

But regarding your clutch gooing downward acting weird, i dont have such experiance before. i still use stock clutch.

42T can be bought/ordered in JB... but they will have to do a custom job of drilling holes to fit exactly RW... thats what they did for me.. so far so good.. if ur DESPERATE i mayb able to help u.. i can ship over via singpost to ur doorstep.. but it cost u more $$ coz i stay in SGP (travel far distance).....
