hi, just heard from my fren saying that soon the petrol stations in JB will close after 10pm. Is this true? If its true, does that mean no more night run? =(

 

honestly, i dont think that is ever going to happen.

for the simple reason that once all the petrol kiosks in the area close, where are the people going to get petrol frm? not only sporeans affected, their own citizens are going to get hit too.

in no time, illegal petrol kiosks will pop up and eventually the legal kiosks will find themselves feeling totally stupid to create such a goldmine for others to tap on.

just my 2 cents :cheeky:

Agree on this. Heard it from my friend also but i doubt it will happen la. They can't afford to lose our support. I think the JB petrol kiosk nearby customs revenue 50% from Sg cars and bike.

redlining should be avoided

as for changing gears at higher revs e.g. 7K - 8K, i would think its better not to do it constantly.

on the other hand, this doesnt mean it is good for the gears to be changing gears at super low revs e.g. 3K -4K

 

personally i ride like a pus.sy, changing gears at ard 5K - 6K rpm. occassionally try to whack top speed for that few seconds. hope to keep the engine in working condition and able to gimme that extra bit of power when i needed it. :cheeky:

 

Omg, i think by bike will die soon. lol. i always change gear at 6,7 or 8 rpm. Die liao.

spark plug change is super duper troublesome. if i not wrong must remove the fairing, then unscrew the radiator screw, disconnect spark plug cable then use a spanner and spark plug tool to slow take out the spark plug. i recommend u go shop change 1 time and watch the whole process before u try yourself. at least tt's wat i did!! :smile: :smile:

 

Hey bro, iridium plugs change already. Anyway i topped up V power after changing the plugs. Now the bike response better ley. Dunno how to explain but definitely can fill the difference. Dunno whether its the plug or the petrol. Usually i pump F1 synergy. hahaz.

that will probably help lots i guess. i'm not entirely sure too. perhaps watch the clutch plates, chain cam tensioner and of course brakes!!

 

think our bike got a problem with front brakes. the front brake master cylinder seems vulnerable. a lot of us changed tt already. my CBR 1 year plus old changed tt already cuz braking on the front is uneven.

probably just another 1 of those hoses to channel excessive overflowing oil, coolant, petrol, water, etc. or maybe crank case breather.

dont need to get too distracted with those. :p

Bro, take care. This bike cornering sucks especially with stock tyres. I almost buang also near my house. Anyway my bike can top 160 km/h but redline liao. Unless you are willing to sacrifice a bit then try. ERrm, try only at night. Watch out for hidden cams.

 

The other day TP give me NDP present.
