CBR150R Riders, Join us now!

im getting the timing chain replaced (cause of the high mileage). read that the timing chain should be replaced at 100,000km intervals. i c some posts in other forums which even recommended change at 80,000km.

 

but getting access to the entire timing chain involves some brutal stripping of the top engine. so i thought might as well change the piston and ring as well (since the piston will be exposed during the process of getting to the timing chain and i wouldnt expect the piston to be in a gd condition frm the high mileage also).

 

a snapped timing chain can potentially damage the valves and engine block which can render an overhaul necessary (warning: extreme damage to pocket!).

 

thats why i adopted a spend-small-money-to-save-big-money mentality for this one.

 

 

 

ic.. cos mine only at about 40+k km.. guess mine still far on that item.. the piston thing u say can only be changed after stripping of engine ? or just stripping of piston aka exhuast pipe right ?

[Red_Devils]

he can be my spokesperson liao since i always try to park next to his!

 

eh why u always leave ur helmet there ah?? later get stolen then u cannot go home.. hahaha..

 

Erh... When did you see my helmet on my bike? I always came later than u and you always go back later than me. Anyway, nobody want to steal my ugly helmet 1.

[Red_Devils]

boring

my cbr150 will be spending its 3rd day at planet workshop liao

1st day witness them take out the entire engine off the bike and then stripping the top part to take out timing chain.

as expected, my piston is chao tar after doing 94,000KM on the odometer.

 

so new piston + ring, tensioner, timing chain, timing chain related bracket.

yet to determine the total damage to be done to my pocket.

wish me luck for tmr guys!

 

 

Good luck Don. but rmbr to share2 the price and the machine performance(not refering to speed) after all these things have been done.

clever. remember to share the price. i also like this kind of mentality. hehe..

got leh. i dun remember which day but i got see.. two some more..

not a matter of ugly or not lah. but pple play pranks and throw ur helmets away u also cannot go home?? hahahahaha..

[holugyi]

then.. i did changed my head light set also.. coz burned by super white light bulb 12 v 35 / 35 w which i changed as 4th piece on left side.

 

the new set cost to me s$90 at the shop which located beside 219 on levender st. When i ask the time, they told me all full set. when i collect, just cover set only, without bulb without wire cable.

 

then .. i went to chong aik on desker rd. n ask about it.

 

head set ..... 75.. ( not sure wt cable. i forgot to ask )

wire cable .... 15

 

 

just information to all.. thanks.

[Jenga]

that big one comes in a single instead of dual piece i think.

 

can try fitting right smack in front of the bike (just like those avoid evil kind of 8sided mirrors chinese pple use for their homes).

 

That will ruin our perfect aerodynamic line

[Red_Devils]

got leh. i dun remember which day but i got see.. two some more..

not a matter of ugly or not lah. but pple play pranks and throw ur helmets away u also cannot go home?? hahahahaha..

 

Got such ppl meh? Hope that thing not happen to me.

 

What time is ur break time? U go where smoke 1?

 

 

Zed, Derrick tmrw confirm or not?

[Wankidal]

=(

 

i also got quiz tomorrow. i think if whitefang jio you sure go.

 

DREAM on my friend. the only thing that will bring me out of my bed last night would be a chicken wing supper with a tai tai that drives a porsche. thats the minimum.

[Wankidal]

i think straight exhausts are still the nicest.. in my books, that is..

 

 

 

but if send to shop for them to bring inspection will surely pass ah?

 

 

 

too late! i just got back..

 

 

 

haha.. too bad.. i just got back from netball..

 

should be la... if cannot pass they will try to make it pass. maybe you need to pay them more la... cannot confirm definitely. ask those who have went for inspection before.

ic.. cos mine only at about 40+k km.. guess mine still far on that item.. the piston thing u say can only be changed after stripping of engine ? or just stripping of piston aka exhuast pipe right ?

 

not too sure how to go abt taking out only the piston, but my guess is the manual work is going to be just as tough.

 

latest update on the damage which awaited me when i went to pick up my bike juz now.

SGD$450/-

 

still gotta change my chain + sprocket + rear tyre within 1 week or so.

 

so far find the ride smooother than before. but was cautioned to go thru the running in process by the mechs. maybe this can help bring me closer to the 160kmph that u guys can clock on yr rides. mine could only go up till 140kmph on gear 5 previously.

broooo

new original headlight set (covers the headlight glass/plastic + reflector w/o bulbs) only for $45 at LAB w/o installation.

 

i didnt touch the clutch cable so far cause i got the shop which i bought the bike (2nd hand) to change new cable for me before i took it on the roads.

140kmph on gear 5? what is the RPM?

 

sprocket size changed?

 

tyres size like bmx bike?

[Am hoppus]

hey anyone of u guys did respraying? any good workshop to recommend ? Thanks..

[Red_Devils]

tomorrow confirm what?

 

How is ur test/exam?

$450+$chain+$sprocket+$tyres for new bike.

 

140kph on 5th is very good. I cant even go faster than 120kph on 5th gear.

 

Wait, 140kph on 5th then should be able to go 160kph on 6th what? Me 120kph on 5th and can go up to 140kph on 6th.

[Red_Devils]

my break time is at 11 to 11.30 am. usually at the smoking corner behind block F.

 

Erh... Me earlier by half an hour.

[collectees]

How is ur test/exam?

Derrickkkkkkk, where r u?

[thisisme]

i am here call u also never answer so tommorrow how on is it

hey white fang u want meet on sat nite to buy the horn so can install when zed is free

[d0n]

140kmph on gear 5? what is the RPM?

 

sprocket size changed?

 

tyres size like bmx bike?

 

yah

my sprocket size different from original

forgot exactly how many rpm it was at that speed

probably around 10K (nearing red line)?

maintained it only for a fraction of a minute along the stretch PIE (BKE) to BKE (Dairy Farm).

 

uncle lim was right abt the 6th gear being for overdrive purposes.

all along, i could only get max 130kmph on 6th gear at ard 9.5K RPM.

could never go beyond 10K rpm if i dont drag the gears below.

Bro, i think the thing that is stopping you from running 160 is that big fat ugly fixture at the back of your bike aka box. lol... remember how i managed to run 160 on full stock conditions. well now even with 41 sprockets i can only reach 160. i think when time to change chain and sprockets i want to revert back to stock size. same top plus better pick up...

[Wankidal]

anyway has anyone tried techtron platinum?

 

whats the choice of local petrol?

 

must start choosing liao. no more f1 synergy... sianzzz..
