bigger main jet because i was thinking more fuel for engine.. more fuel = less stress for engine.. got more lub.. ?

[Pendek]

talking abt engines and engine repair...? why do people in sg especially..when they overhaul their engine they have to do "running in"?

how come my mechanic when he overhauls my engine he says"dun bother with running in" instead he säys "go and whack the bike to the max" this i dunt understand...and true enuf..when ii do...i dunt get any piston jam or seize. the bike runs very well....and better i mite add. excuse my lack of experience....this is a question i've been meaning to ask....

 

ok running in only needs to be done when u have a new piston+ring in the cylinder block..

when everything is new, the material needs time to adjust to the newly rebored block.. so tats y.. they do this so tat the debris of the new piston wont be sumpt up to your transmission helicals thus expanding / sparing your engine life.. plus they advice u to change engine oil before u whack the bike cos u dont want the debris in the cylinder block.. your engine will be rough and further scratching your newly rebored block boy..

when i used the standard main jet...and rode for a distance at high speed...gave a hole in the piston the size of abt 2 50cent coins...now i use big jet...ride very shiok....petrol...doesnt really bother me...coz afterall...how big is ur tank and how much petrol can it use up...nt like as if its a car....

hmmm...funny.....i sometimes wonder...of all the ppl who say that runnin in is impt...my guy doesnt...what makes u tink he says that...i agree with the running in explanation....but i cant say my mech is lousy...so far...bike run very well...and no problems...problems only come when i create...not problems he has touched on...

[Pendek]

thanks for the advice.. ya.. i notice the higher speed i go, it vibrates more...

 

yeah no prob.. feel free to throw questions here.. im sure our fellow forumers has their say also..

 

 

how come no one answers my question?

 

lek ah bro 1 by 1.. u like skykecik and loudnessfz already seh..

hahaah i think u got mixed up between engine and block bro..

main jet - is in your carb

engine - is the one situated at your underbone sub-frame.. your gearing and

major components at

 

engine is only lubed with ONLY your E.O aka engine oil / 4t.. nothin to do with fuel and 2t bro..

i had a mech like tat before but never really believed him.. i kept to my own principles and stick to running in.. well its really your choice.

but u only have to blame yourself when your piston wears off fast as the cylinder block has many scratches created when during the not running in done.

 

u should know the pros and cons as a car/ bigger engine mechanic, i bet cars do running in too right?? so same theory lah.. :cool:

[Pendek]

MASS ORDER FOR ARAI RAINCOATs

 

range from size S,M & L its priced at $70net!! outside market price from $80-$95.. so please include your following details if interested.. i wanna see if i can hit more than 10piece..

[PHILIP79]

Pendek, SIDI riding boots what model... Cos I see from website all 200+++ onwards based on overseas pricing...

[zerin]

i just run in mine new piston also.. but i whack home yesterday night... mileage on my Z was 500km before i whack it.. anyway i went to get a 240 size main jet already.. i will see if there is much difference on my FC.. but i think if you dont whack, there wont be much difference.. but if you ride fast, maybe the FC will be more heavier..

Throwing more fule into the fire does not give the fireman less stress rite???

More Lube goes to ur E.O./4t for ur engine and 2t for ur piston..

 

But remember more doesn't always gives a perfect ride...

U'll cum up Short...

a... I checked on website.... Dunno how come pendek said aboit 80-100... So what u have for recommedation for riding bootys????

[zerin]

my bike wobble alot in high speed..... how can i make my handling better? my bike will wobble like snake.. before i change my tire, 120km/h is the max i can go.. after i change my tire, slighty better.. but 130km/h it start to wobble again.. how can i improve my handling? or where do i have to check? my bike is running on 18in spoke rim.. or is it the spoke rim that cause it like this? this is a 10 year old bike FR plate.. all stock standard... i recently just change my swing arm bushing only...

 

i used to ride another FV plate RXZ with 18in sports rim.. it handles well all the way until 145km/h..

 

can help me with this?

[svick]

Just recovered frm my accident. Last Sunday over east area got heavy rain. In marine parade area i skidded. Haiz. Got my RXZ head broken and shattered. Side wise not much damage, only the cluth broke. Managed to get it for $4 and fix it myself. But for my RXZ head, i just use wire and abit aluminium tape to fix and use temp. Ask shop,1 shop say $90, anthr say $65. My fren say ah boy selling for $35. Most prob getting it and doing myself. Any broz have any idea how much will it cost in malaysia? If can i take a pic of my damage and post it tmr.

Bike could be bought wif hard work,

Riders are One of a Kind...

Taking Care bro...

:cool:

[zerin]

my wobble comes from the back.. not the front... i wonder what cause this problem...

[LoudnessFz]

hahaha u ah, always my target.. hehehe.. angker i supposed is uncle right??

hmmm watever it is.. wat i believe is tat u never open/ hands on before on your carb lah..

 

well its very easy to troubleshoot actually really.. wat happen is u never really actually did the proper alignment of e pin jet slider.. if u see properly theres a groove to it.. and if u really do it proper, the groove should meet this small needle which is hidden in the carb and sit..

carb lining is not so easily eaten as its only role is, it only goes up and down the chamber when u open throttle or close. but rubbish if u ask me. tat senario would only happen like 0.5 out of 10..

second hand carb for 70?? or 17?? wah if u buy 70 tat is close to the price of a first hand genuine carb.. kanna chop liao..

 

i be collecting the remaining sets of stickers tmr after i end work at 8am.. those whom i still owe please get back to me.. many thanks..

 

wah really ah?aiyah...lucky still have the carb..later go check ah then can sell back...

 

Hi!

 

to keep u in the dark bro, was a bit busy runnin ard lately. But don't worry abt it, I was abt to post to u tat I'm goin to strip my wife's Z tis coming weekend and I'll definitely hav the meter in my mind.

 

Abt the sticker, I can easily liase wif Pendek to get hold of ur sticker(10 pieces of it rite?). But not sure how am I gonna pay for it coz haven't gotten any news from ur newly made Spore fren...

 

But yeah, just hold on to ur horses ait, u'll definitely get ur meterset soon enough... Will update u...

 

 

 

Hmmm... Reminded me of 1 fellow forumer's past experience. Got bike serviced at "trusted" mechanic, mechanic forgot to put back 2t hose, piston seized, rider confused and send back shop to check, mechanic said piston seized due to not enough 2t, got rider to pay for the whole rebore, piston, piston rings and service... And yes, another running in session, tat's the worst...

 

wah...mcm kenal je that 1 fellow forumer...i bet i know who...haha

[Bad_Man]

yeah yours is with me together with the rest.. sighs have to make so many trips just for this stickers as some transfer late.. so due to them yours also get caught up..

when is the expected next round of distribution?

 

I still need to collect mine...but I no hurry...dun stress...

[blurchaoz]

blurchaoz feeling very blur after reading all the post up there...

[blurchaoz]

how to maintain a healthy engine if i always ride it for long distance? eg, east to west..

 

i only know using more 2T will help..

 

you think using bigger main jet will give the engine less stress when maintaining high speed for a long distance? if yes how big?

...

healthy engine = service your bike often.

more 2t= smokey exhaust pipe and dirty your own shirt.

more 2t on premix= bike hard to start and bobok feeling when riding plus the others on top.

bigger main jet= only lets more fuel to enter when you open the throttle and nothing to do with engine stress.

engine stress= spocket size front and rear, tyre size and body weight.

 

 

i just run in mine new piston also.. but i whack home yesterday night... mileage on my Z was 500km before i whack it.. anyway i went to get a 240 size main jet already.. i will see if there is much difference on my FC.. but i think if you dont whack, there wont be much difference.. but if you ride fast, maybe the FC will be more heavier..

 

u whack or dont whack still FC higher then your previous main jet size.

should be around RM50 +/-
