high polished parts theres a shop opposite lorong bapok. double H.

they do 1 to 1 exchange plus top up.

 

if u want to do up a full chrome on your bike it will be $1700 except the bike frame not chrome up.

 

if u want to do a cheaper method DIY. paint remover, autosol and sand paper.

 

Double H? Hou Heng at Lorong Bapok? Haha used to go there all the time... Hmmm they sell ready made high polished parts now? Hmmm will try and check it out. Oh yeah right now I am trying the autosol and sandpaper method but I guess the sandpaper still not thin enough as such there are scratch marks.

bro! saw you on the road before ... motorrr degilll bro !niceee :cheeky:

 

Tot u saw me also???

hahaha...

 

Hws everything going especially wif ur "big" u-knw-wat case?

center mount rear bracket at which area macha... confuse... trying to figure it out.:angel:

 

its located at your rear tail end bro on the sub-frame.. for old models they need this rear mount center piece so tat when assembled, it wont be as flimsy.. most mechic do it the cheap way.. take 2 bracket dua posen bent it and tie the top part together with the center piece with just nuts and bolts.. neh mind when meet up again i show u bebeh :D

 

Hi Bro,

Anyone can gv me some advise on wat is the RXZ battery volt. 6V or 12 V.

Cos my battery flat after 1 week even though i hv charge it.

Any possibility that my retifier is spoilt?

Thank.

 

sometimes its just the fuse.. do get it checked up :thumb:

Hi.

 

Check if the voltage increases when you turn the lights on/off. The voltage is supposed to be 12V when the engine is off (battery voltage) and between 13.2 to 14.4 Volts when high rpm (5,000+ rpm).

 

If the battery is deep discharged (below 10 Volts) it usually can not recover, if so then only for a short time. Replace it.

 

When the rectifier output voltage (battery connected!) stays below 12 respective 13.5 Volts, it could be the rectifier or the generator coil (RXZ uses light/charge coil two-in-one which is why the lights have influence on charging). Bring it to the shop and have them check the rectifier first (sitting under the tank) because it can just plug in another and see if it works, if not change the coil (soldering required!)

 

For me, rectifier blown once, coil twice already (in over 45,000 kilometers).

 

Regards

I managed to throttle the rpm to 5,000+rpm and at the same time measure the battery voltage and the reading is about 12-13V.does it mean that my rectifier and coil should be in working condition and perhap the battery maybe the caused of it. But think again i just change it 2 month ago or inferior quality. hahah

try changing a new battrey first bro.. dont jump into a new rectifier straight away. unless if you know that ur bike battrey is still new then try changing ur rectifier.

 

but i had change the battery 2 month ago and it working well until last 2 week the battery flat again. I sent to motor shop to charge for 30min and it only last about 1 week.

 

I start the bike and measure the battery volatage and the result was 6+V and when i throttle to rmp 3-4, the voltage increase to about 8V.

RXZ battery is suppose to be 6V or 8V??

 

Anyone can help me.

Thank for your help.

Hi.

 

How do you measure, with an analog or digital meter? Because "12-13V" is very vague, the rectifier outlet voltage at such rpm should exceed 13 Volts for sure, usually it is 14 or slightly above. As with mine, i get 14.2 Volts max from about 5,000 rpm up. At idle (!) i get 12.5 and at 3,000 rpm it is 13.5 Volts.

 

The nominal voltage of the battery is 12 Volts, in order to charge it the charging voltage MUST be higher or it would not work.

 

It is however possible that your battery has some cells shorted, in your case (you measured 8 Volts) probably two cells shorted (lead acid battery each cell has 2 Volts which is why you have 6 cells).

 

Best is to try with another battery (you can borrow one from a fellow Zecker just for the test) and measure the voltages again. At 5,000 rpm your charging voltage should exceed 13 Volts and be towards 14 or slightly above. If not, check rectifier/coil and the connections between them (corrosion in cable connectors can cause all sorts of problems!)

 

@Syamitomo

I'm not the electrical specialist but i have been through all that with my RXZ as i was also lacking Volts, they disappeared somewhere.... But i did a lot of LED lighting on my RXZ (everything including the meter backlight is LED, the only regular light bulb is the head light) in order to save on current (i.e. LED's have much lower wattage than bulbs, if less current is drawn the voltage does not decrease as much) and did all sorts of measurements in the process. Came to the conclusion that:

 

1) RXZ's cabling sucks big time - too many connectors that corrode.

2) RXZ's light/charge 2-in-1 coil is a technical misconcept, bound to fail

3) RXZ's rectifier sits in a dangerous place and easily overheats

4) Having tail light, all four indicators, additional brake light, meter backlight, all pilot lights and some additional "toy lights" all in LED takes a shitload of LED's, hours and hours of work but yields the PERFECT lighting and solves all power problems :) With LED's even if the on-board system collapses to 9 Volts everything still works and even without battery (!) or a totally dead battery still all lights and indicators can be used, much safer than light bulbs.

 

And for batteries there are good and bad ones as well, rule of thumb: You pay amount "x Dollars per year" for batteries. Either one good one - or several cheap ones :) The difference is the amount of time you have to change them - once a year or multiple times. For example our local brand "National" rarely lasts more than three months (2 months warranty) while a Yuasa lasts one year (6 months warranty). But the Yuasa cost as much as 4 National, so money-wise it is the same. In Thailand (Bangkok at least) batteries last rarely longer than a year at all, lead-acid batteries don't like high temperatures and here it is ALWAYS hot. The same problem is for car batteries which is why you find a battery shop in just about every small side street here :)

Hmmm this is quite an informative post however just to check does RXZ use any fuses? If there are where are they located? Might be a blown fuse. That was what happened to my G4 :sian:

Posted

Hi :)

 

RXZ uses only one fuse which is in the (+) line to the battery, directly at the battery in fact. If it blows there will be zero Volts available to the system when the engine is not running. This does not affect the rectifier, so if the engine is running and coil and rectifier are in order everything will (at least at higher rpm's) work.

 

The fuse does not cut the rectifier's circuit because it delivers only some 25 watts of power, not enough to do any serious damage in case of a short. However if there is a short while the battery is connected without a protecting fuse it may cause a fire as the battery delivers high enough current to make wires burn/melt.

hi all , i got a question here .

 

Source A :

An experience mechanic recommended

me to use rxk piston on my Z to

achieve better speed. Its better than

the stock ones he quoted.

 

Source B :

A friend with knowledge about

rxz says that it's better to have a stock

piston as the Yamaha company have

built the bike (rxz) to perform at its best.

 

which is fact or fiction ? :confused:

hahah! like doing O'lvl socialstudies ryte ? :goodluck:

If i'm nt wrong RXk Piston is using a much larger Piston size than RXZ...

U want to over bore ur block unnecessary???

Serious ah???

*Touch wood*

Later Seize or jam u'll be in trouble...

 

RXZ ment to ride buat Sedap je...

U wanna run n tase Speed/wind/sand/pebble/rock/bugs best u get a bigger bike which was built for it...

 

U can do so much to her but since u're be enlisting soon,

save ur $$$ for the REALLY necessary "falling-off/breaking-dwn" parts...

The Extra goes to ur saving 4 class 2a & 2, dwn payment 4 ur dream bike, parents, GF & urself.

 

Seriously the temptation to do up ur bike is huge... But if u could keep it under control, the end of it all, u'll enjoy ur DREAM bike along wif ur RXZ...

 

Juz my few cent tot...

Anything juz drop a msg..

Source A :

achieve better speed. Its better than

the stock ones he quoted.

 

Fact... The Better speed is due to a bigger piston... Bigger Piston Bigger Surface area to burn... Bigger Area to burn during each combustion would theoretically provide more power.. More power would achieve "better speed" But eventually u'll juz Clear the meter...

 

Source B :

A friend with knowledge about

rxz says that it's better to have a stock

piston as the Yamaha company have

built the bike (rxz) to perform at its best.

 

Fact... This would be more of fine tuneing ur bike to sut the rider's needs on the road...

"Ported block, ported carb, open-port, chamber exhaust, etc."

The List goes on as long as u show the $$$
