Really lao jiao when it comes to zhenging!! I can tell you're a veteran just by the usage of "Emptying bank accounts..." note the "accounts" in plural, not singular!! Ha!

Hahahaha ok ok...singular phrase should be used.....bank account then!!!! Play a decade liow...don't know how much money wasted..that was why my current 4 wheels did not do much as it is pretty quick off the factory.

 

Find some time...need to know more costs on zhenging the DNA....

I mean plural is correct, as it'll waste sh!t loads of money when one's really into zhenging.. No choice la, "ai hiong xiu, jui ai jiap xiu"..

 

K, lemme know wat u wanna do, I should be able to give you a breakdown of market price, and diy cost...

 

cheerios~~~

Bro, promise you lah, the zhenging of a DNA is a pittance compared to zhenging a car man... Plus the satisfaction of a pimped up DNA is almost orgasmic....

sian man ...... yesterday came back from work and found a big pool of green liquid under my bike. COOLANT LEAKING from carb i think, i not sure.

 

i expected this will happened, but not so fast. Don't know can i ride it ? Don't know who to bring the bike to fix?

 

Please help.

[danielburgess]

The DNA coolant goes straight from the radiator to the engine case, hmmm, I am hoping that it is just a loose connection, worse case scenario, radiator or reservoir leaking, which I doubt and hope it is not. Riding with leaking coolant is ok as long as there is sufficient coolant in the system. Means topping up alot more. As for the coolant, try not to use water. The special blue colored one is better.

 

Cheers...

[danielburgess]

You can always go down to Wonderful motors, otherwise known as Botak, he does a great job. If you want coolant, they are available at most bike shops. Lim Ah boy sells them at about $5 a bottle...

 

Cheers...

[mym203]

What brand is the blue special coolant? Currently, my coolant is green. Can i mix the blue in or do i have to empty the current one first? How to empty it? How long will it usually take to get it fix at wonderful?

 

Do i need to make an appointment with Mr. Botak ?

 

Please advice

 

Thank you

[danielburgess]

Hmmm, I don't know if I am going blind, but after pouring it into my bike the blue liquid turned green. Anyway, no particular brand, but it is best to drain out the old fluid, top up a bit of fluid, run the bike to get the fluid to circulate in the system, and then flush that out. After that top up full with coolant.

As for brand I am not too sure, but it comes in a blue bottle with a yellow cap...

 

Cheers...

[danielburgess]

No need to make appointment, just go on down, as for the timing, it depends. As it could be a variety of problems. But I doubt it will take long, I suspect leaky tubing.

 

Cheers...

If you guys want to have storage on your bike without the ugly box (no disrespect to spider) anyway saw this on ebay, looks kinda cool...

I got the prices for your wheel bearings... Not yr transmission.. Cos they're rather odd sizes.. I'll pm you whatever I have at d moment.

 

BTW, you bought 6202 in the red-coloured cage (high speed) bearing huh???!? Where you get in from one?? I practically scored the whole island, but couldn't get it in that size leh.. International Bearing included said that they do not have the textite-based bearing in 6202 size.. You've got use for yours?? Wanna sell me?? *desperate**

 

BTW, yur wheel bearings got 2rs or not? Meaning are they covered? Or without cover?

yo sorry for the late reply... just got back... 6202 i cannot get for that too... i was hoping there is a cemeric type... i also got mine from international bearings... they said there is a production for it but need to order if i remember correctly... so how is the price like from wat u have on hand?

 

o ya my wheel bearings have 2rs which is covered...

You sure its gonna help?? Titanium will tend to gall. To prevent it from galling, you need a really expensive coating. Add to the ultra expensive nature of a titanium. thats gonna be quite abit. Secondly, titanium is not stronger then steel, only much lighter.. So using it as an axle shaft... Hmm... Dunno.. Thirdly, you won't gain much from the unsprung weight gained.. Cos its at the dead-centre of the whole centrifugal force. If you really want improvement, go for the rims. Dymags!! :evil:
