Spy might have a better idea as he uses tm.. I always use only pwk. In fact, I got 3 pwks at home.. Big fan of PWK..

 

Anyway, here's what I know.. TM is the original flat slide series from mikuni.. TMX is the later series developed from the TM series. TMX's designed for motocross use. It's got a radial flat slide design, a more lightweight and compact body.

 

TMS replaces the TMX. Its even better.. Or so I heard.. Radical jetting system.. Hee..

 

May 14 is the cubprix day leh.. I think I'll be going to the cubprix again leh... See how. PAnyway, PG 3hr track day always very crowded right?? I noobie.. Don't dare to ride when there's so many pro around leh...

 

I maybe gunning for a weekday. Cheaper and quieter during weekdaze..

I also not very sure...wat I know is in the TMX has an extra jet inside which they call the "powerjet" or watsoever...

 

TMS has some special slide n can run wifout pilot jet n even the main jet somehow..

 

Datz wat I read somewher sometime back but not too sure how it really works

 

Im juz using the tiny 24mm which is the so-call basic model so no big deal hehehe anything bigger than 30mm might be an overkill for me

[danielburgess]

Hmmm, I had that problem too, just go down and change the cushion and cover, it cost me $35, PM me if you want the address...

 

Cheers

Or try toughening up yr arse?? haha

 

My seat has already got thin piece of foam added over the original seat. The stock seat is worst, even harder.. If you add any more foam, it'll look damn ugly.. Like 'Ba Zhang' like that..

 

And that seat of yours has got a matching design with your paintwork, if you're to rewrap the seat, you'll have to get them to re-do the whole seat cover to match the paintwork lor.. If not, not so nice lor..

 

Cheers!!!!

What's the deffro between a 28 and 27 mm carb? Will a proper 28 tmx be too big for runner's usage?

 

I think its more worth it to get a 28. Cos got better aftermarket value as its a more mainstram size.. 27 neither here nor there I feel...

 

Cheers bro!!

Talking abt off topics.... hehehe Dan, I have thought over it thoroughly, the DNA is indeed unique and I don't need cash anyway. Maybe, I will just buy a 2nd manual bike, not the Varadero as it is quite dear. As for the DNA, maybe it is time to start the project soon. Hopefully, I don't need to go SSDC any more.
