Anyone wants to change their bearing(wheel), top up brake fluid/bleed,change spark plug, tighten chain,change clutch plates, spray their bike (flat color), remove the screeching sound from their rear wheel?

 

Maybe can ask jester to help fix horn, as i'm dunno about electric circuits

 

ball bearing sizes

front wheel 2 pieces of 6210 2rs ($2.80 each)

rear wheel 1 piece of 6210 and 1 piece of 6310 ($3.80 each)

rear wheel spocket 1 piece of 6203 ( Dunnoe price)

 

carburetor cleaning not possible as i dun have the air gun required (anyway $8 only)

 

change air filter $15

 

clutch friction plate ($7.50 x 4 + $8.50)=$38.50 change this when your clutch slip

auto drive shoe ( Dunno the price yet ) change this when u need to rev very hard to start moving

change comp assembly brake $9 ( you need to change this when you feel hard to shift your gear and cannot free wheel when you kick your gear shift all the way)

change brake pad i also can help

oil change and spark plug change

 

oil change is recommanded at 2000km or lesser

never do oil change yourself, as it's not cheaper to do it yourself, and you might spoil your oil drain screw if you tighten too much

 

spark plug should change when you change your oil

spark plug also cannot tighten too much. best is to get RELIABLE mech to do using torque wrench

 

cheapest 4t oil i could find cost $5 for 1 ltr

[dreamtcs]

when you ride hafway, let go your steering and it starts to wobble left and right

 

things that might be spoil

1.your steering column bearing spoil

2.your front wheel might be loose

3.your front wheel bearing might be spoil

4.your alignment might be off (due to accident, need to press back your forks)

Try to service carburator and retune air/fuel mixture ratio. Dat should fix the problem.

The air/fuel problem.

 

Popping sound is due to the unburnt fuel doing "last min" combustion. This because the fuel is too rich, thus the engine do not haf enuf time to burn the excess fuel fed.

 

U'll notice a slight increase in fuel consumption also.

 

Should be resolved once the A/F is adjusted. Best to let the mech do it, cos adjusting the air too much will results in piston jaming (in the long run).

 

Cheers!
