eh... y is its 2stroke one? and the tank 10 litres!

[danielburgess]

Heyz,

Maybe different version as my DNA is 4 stroke, and my full-tank is more like 7 litres? Anyway, my exhaust also starting to rot! Want to like mass order some after-stock ones?

 

Cheers...

 

P.S. Heyz, I was wondering whether I should install a switch so that I could manually turn on the cooling fan, like when I am riding long distance and the engine feels really hot? What so you guys? Also thinking about a hazard light...

hey i saw a red one one the road today.. rider is a girl...

Yup.... I've heard of a female Starhub employee who rides blue one too! Heard from a bike shop....

Yeah, the suspension is really bad on the DNA, as what most pillions tell me. Anyway, I have a similar problem with the white powder, seems like it is my battery leaking and so the white powder in my case is dried up battery acid crystals...

 

Cheers...

 

By the way I saw a yellow DNA at serene centre today...

Oh okie.... thanks....

 

Any way to solve it?

 

Oh ya... i remember the very first time I saw the DNA. It was at Plaza Singapura. In fact, I saw it twice. Both at night. Red if I'm not wrong....

 

 

Belong to any one of you guys?

Guess what?? Beside the seeing the red coloured DNA with the lady rider, I too saw (for the first time ins singapore), a grey coloured one too...

 

 

These days see more and more dnas.. Esp ard town... More posers riding maybe?? (me included!) ha. No offence huh..

Grey colour? Eeeww..... I mean... no offence... But that colour is a little..... dull?

 

Space age design must have space age colour mah...hehe.

 

 

Hmm.....i thought DNAs were no more imported since like more than a year ago? The ones on the road are generally at least a yr old right?

 

Anyway....let's hope our "club" stays exclusive...! haha...

should try mah... its the major fun in biking... cornering shows how much u trust yr bike and how u tame it...

Hmm....for me.... The front portion seems very unstable whenever I corner...esp when I lean-in (body lean more than bike).... Any solutions?

The DNA is powered by a four valve liquid cooled version of the high performance four stroke LEADER engine (Low Emission ADvanced Engine Range). These engines set new standards, not only where power delivery is concerned, with 11 kW (15 bhp) on the DNA 125cc and 15 kW (20 bhp) on the DNA 180cc, but also with regard to European standards regarding emissions and fuel consumption.

 

The beautiful hydraulic fork with its 35mm diameter stanchions, fitted with dual yokes like on a motorcycle, is in full view as a result of the essential styling of the DNA. The braking system relies on a 240mm front disc with floating calliper and 25mm double piston and a 240mm rear disc with 30mm opposed dual pistons, larger than the rear disc on the 50cc model, which has a diameter of 200mm.

Its nice-- gun metal grey, set against the small little touches of red calipers.. ;=)

 

Yeah, no more imported. But there're still some left-over stocks (in shops) somewhere around, as spotted by a few members here...

 

It will stay pretty exclusive I suppose... So dun worry. ha

Yeah, the rotting zorst is one of the most widely-reported prob with this bike from riders overseas...

 

So I've gotten mentally prepared to change it before buying it.. hee

perhaps yr hand position is wrong... make sure its bend around slightly more than 100 degrees...

Daniel, regarding the fan, I dun think you shoud do it... As long as there's no prob with the fan operating mech ( meaning, it should turn on when it should—roughly more than half of yr temp gauge), its fine..

 

4stroke always run hot.. This is not hot compared to the bigger 4cylinder brothers... They're like oven man.. Designed to kill sperm count.. ha

haha... just something i found out after riding dna.... u tend to sit up right and corner with yr hands straight thus giving u unconfident feedback from then from.... don have any of this prob with my 250... the riding posture don allow to do so...

Hmm....is it the problem where the inside of the exhaust rusts so badly? Hmm....i think I'm experiencing that too.... Haha....

Hmm...ya...you're right....!

 

I just realised..... but then again... riders sit upright on the DNA partly cos the natural lean causes backache... haha....

 

Maybe just for me....
