I guess he must be a very popular guy in the neighbourhood.

I guess that might cause the block to crack after sometime as the

temperature rises rapidly?

does by using thinner engine oil increase warming up time? coz i read sumwhr dat a 10w40 oil takes a long time to warm up...

Thinner oil sh b able to warm up faster, rite? By my logic lah...

 

For eg, hot cars like the BMW M3 uses 60-grade oil as they cannot take any thinner as the car will overheat easily.

Without main stand so,

Sit on bike

Put bike upright

Start engine

Wear helmet liner

Wear helmet

Wear right glove

Wear left glove

Slowly reverse out of the lot

Go down slowly from 3rd storey of my MSCP

Slowly proceed to the exit of my estate

VTEC ready to open

Every morning,

1. Start bike.

2. Wear Jacket

3. Wear Helmet

4. Wear Gloves

5. Check bag if forget to bring anything.

6. Half Clutch all the way to entrance of car park.

Then go off le.. haha.

[dragonforce]

every morning, i unarm my bike, take out my helmet and put my stuff in box.

1) start engine

2) fold my bike cover

3) wear my helmet and gloves, put in cashcard and ride off.

i think at least 3min after i start engine..

[fezocafella]

this is my opinion. if i havent start my bike for a long time den there's definitely a need to allow it to run for awhile. a MUST. if lets say you go to a shop and u stop ur bike, a few mins later u're on it again den there's no need laaa

[ZERO_shift]

Every morning, put helmet on thank

1)Start engine

2)Take out cigs and smoke

3)Drink kopi-o packet from kopitiam

4)Report strength to boss if coming late or not

5)Finish cig,put cashcar,wear helmet and gloves

6)Ride off gradually and fffing at jams

3-6mins I usually take to warm it up.

Hey fellow S4ians...

Try this...

 

Get a "Hot Dot" sticker from ur Pizza Hut delivery friends.

Then stick it on da engine cover which gets hot and cold easily where visible and 1 on da exhaust pipe...

When it says "HOT" den u can move off... hehe

For da 1 on da exhaust, at least ur frens who pillion u dun get burnt on their legs... Esp ur gf's beautiful legs... hehe

 

Lotsa ppl hv done this and i think it's not such a bad idea.

Do keep some spare stickers handy cuz they dun last very long.

After some time da word "HOT" will just stay there even if it's cold...

 

Dats just a suggestion...

Cheers...

[Wizard]

wah like that also can?

if order from pizza hut home delivery got the sticker or not?

dun really have any friend working for pizzahut leh

[Sofir]

[Wizard] : hey bro... just ask da delivery guy can give u or not lor...

[ashz]

true true... always remember customer is always right....

Hi All long time haven came in this forum... for me i change my pluck to better type but need to ramp abit so that the engine won die off when starting in the morning.....

 

but if i use the original pluck $8 i think.. every morning when i start ..no need to ramp my bike.. and it will start and wont die off..

 

for warming up.. my suggestion is start up engine..around 45sec to 1 min and ride off with low speed and keep changing to higer gear and after a while than speed up.cos in the morning there will not be much petrol in the carbretor it will damage it in long time. hope my suggestion helps..do correct me if i am wrong..

 

oh i am currently riding spec3..

[zyrofillica]

hmmmm.. non smokers can use a cloth and wipe down their bikes before moving off? lol.. just a crappy suggestion.. i have a remote start unit on my bike.. so when i'm on the way down before i enter the lift, i start my engine, by the time i wear my helmet, the bike warm up liao..

 

Or someone else rode off with ur bike liao....
