SSDC class 2A. Heat emitted from CB400 burning inner thighs?

[d515s23]

Went for my first 2A lesson. Lesson went on fine, but was very uncomfortable with the heat coming from the tank.

 

Reached home, shower, then had a shock when I saw my inner thighs kena burn until red red. Actually burn my thighs never mind, what I'm worried about is my balls! Is it normal? How you guys tahan?

[timewalker84]

Common stuff bro. It's a problem with the S4 Revo. The class 2 bikes don't have that problem.

 

If u think it's bad in SSDC, think about what the BBDC guys have to deal with. Hot afternoon sun adding to the heat of the engine - the tank gets so hot some guys give up riding halfway and go camp at the water cooler!

its like that. wear tights or something to protect

[altya]

Everybody gets burned by them to get their class 2/2a... Maybe its their secret way to keep us "awake & focus" during lesson? LOL

[ticks]

Everybody also the same. I even resorted to fan my thighs in out but instructor scold me. LL have to tahan the heat. Go back spray cold water at the jewels.

[d515s23]

Wah really is common ah. Then I better get groin guard and wear double layer underwear to protect my balls!

[ticks]

U dont need double layer. What u need is thermal wear. U wear double layer then the heat get absorbed by extra layers of cloth then how? By the time finish the quails egg also cooked.

TS, it seems like you are one of the few with sensitive skin on the thigh like me. trust me though 90% of the testee can feel the heat problem, none of them gets burnt mark like u and me. prepare to struggle ur way up taking 2a.

 

Heres mine record,

1.01 twice,

2.01 twice

3.01 twice

rc 5,

take first tp, 42 points

rc another 3,

2nd tp, lets see.

 

u can give feedbacks to the higher ups. i also same prob.

I only felt the problem with the S4 revo actually. The CBF600 wasn't so bad. Maybe the engine is more efficient?

 

But the red burn marks ARE common. I had them all the time too during 2A. They tend to stay for a day or 2, and they'll fade after that, so don't worry! No permanent damage done!

wa...after reading all the comments, it feels lika horror story!

 

any solution to prevent this? i just enrolled for 2a at ssdc =x

[d515s23]

Went for 2nd lesson. Didn't feel so bad this time round, had a comfortable ride with no burn marks. I think is depend on the bike. If lucky, get a cooler bike.

they should increase the speed limit! Which bike u used? Maybe we can note down a list of bikes that are cooler.

This problem I think have already been feedback to the schools since day 1 when they got their Revo. Previously carb models not so hot. Revo is FI so then engine run leaner, more efficient = hotter. I dont like lean engines. Decrease engine life. Maybe it is too expensive to tune all the bikes to run richer?

nah only s4 revo has this problem at low speed. i rode cbf600 at ssdc class 2 no such problem. unless u drag gear 1 all the way then hot lor

hmm what do u mean by leaner?

Went for revision. Wah lao kena burn again. Red thighs and cooked balls. This time I noted bike number 19. Avoid at all cost!

[r1der]

haha... if this is unbearable then R1 heat must be "godly unbearable"

 

ok one la, class 2a bike heat is still acceptable to me.

 

U can go for night or morning lesson where the surrounding temperature is cooler. if u go during hot afternoon time of course the bike will b hotter.

Not say unbearable, but definitely uncomfortable. Of course bo bian have to endure to get 2a, but any bike that results in burnt red thighs is definitely not right. Thing is i used 4 bikes now, similar timing, 2 were not hot, but 2 cooked my balls. Really just a matter of heng suay.

big bikes are not meant to be ride in circuit condition. you cannot compare the condition u ride outside with circuit. in circuit u ride and top constantly of course it will be hot cuz the air flow to the bike is not enough. i rode revo 1.5years altho it is hotter than other super 4 but i have not encounter it burning my thigh, only if u ride in circuit in hear 1 and 2 for 60mins then it will hot til that point.

LOL. rip balls. Need to put icepack after riding uh

[motordude]

Imagine how the instructor feel everytime they go to work. WOW.

Poor Boii, you book TPalreadyah? So far how ah?

[dcbomb88]

instructors don't ride around circuit the whole lesson, they usually ride awhile and look at students, so i dont think they encounter this problem.

[coolscan]

During lesson, the heat was acceptable. Discovered a red thigh too...
