btw those using matt rear box. i hav tried both kiwi and liquid polish. The effects quite good. If u all want can try. Jack that time u were saying use lacquer as coating for the chrome areas . where to buy lacquer

You can oso use your kiwi for the tyres.....u can get the clear laquer paint from any paint shop. Its those spray cans u normally buy cept the cover is clear transparent plastic indicating it is the clear type paint. Bike shops will usually use this as a finishing coat to protect the underlying coat of paint.

Hi Raden, as long as you use fully synthetic oil, it really don't matter that much what brand u use. The important thing is that u maintain changing the oil at regular intervals to minimize engine wear & tear.

 

I use to use all kinds of oils from Castrol to Mobile to Esso on my previous bikes....and it really depends on how you like the feel of your bike when u ride using the oils u decided to use. My RXK last time run very nicely on Castrol or Plutoline. My Vespa however likes any semi-synthetic oils.....etc etc.

 

I like Elf compared to Castrol on my rw. Some like Royal Purple Max. But u cant say till u use them all and find out which one u like. Personally, Esso and Mobil makes smooth rides from my experience.

 

As for plugs, the iridium ones can last up to 50000km but it also depends on your carb settings. Too lean or too rich will deteriorate the plugs life span.

 

Changing the plugs after a period of three to six months is also good practice if u richen or lean the carb settings

[SlayGay]

OH yar..recently i my fuel consumption improved. Maybe due to elf moto engine oil. U can go try it.

[SlayGay]

Yup. The power loss was due to a jam in the rear brakes. the machine couldnt start coz the starter coil was faulty. Not sure bout the starter coil but i could feel the jam in brakes but i didnt know how to remedy. Damn sian spend quite a lot on the replacements.

Roy has been recommending me to change back to the original exhaust. He said there wil be a lot of difference in my bikes performance as the exhaust is too hollow and needs some pressure. Think might be changing when i go the money.

Seems the old starter coil is easily spoilt. Mine also went bonkers last month....lucky was still in warranty period so free replacement. I think due to water seeping in and shorting the coils, As for the rear brakes, sometimes by realigning the rear tyre, u can solve the jam if it is caused by the disc rubbing against the brake pads due to improper tyre alignment. If not just ask cka to rebleed the brakes for u for a couple of bucks.

 

As for back pressure i recommend sticking to the modded exhaust and save up for a piston upgrade (to a 150 cc) Why spend $250 bucks on changing back to an original exhaust when u can have a bigger cc engine? Honestly wont help much. Try changing ur sproket setup back to 15/42 or 14/40 instead. Or change to smaller and thinner tyres to reduce drag/

I'm not sure which parts exactly though i know that the starter coil is about two hundred twenty right? My bike's only eight months old in my hands
