yo bro,   for GSR, gd gor connering, pick up faster, and size bigger.. look nicer..   for Spec3, got power, not gd for connering, speed got power...   both have gd n bad... all depend which one u like for the design,, spares wish.. Spec3 can find anywhere.. but GSR.. u have to wait long long....   if u r going to upgrade from Class 2A to Class 2 in 2 or 3 yrs time.. get a Honda.. re-sale value is higher...   BTW, Honda Super no longer come out V-Tec engine.. [/b] Ahhh i see i see thnx.     Originally posted by luvpuzzle@ April 26, 2007 02:06 pm Newbies Outing   Date: 5/5/2007 (sat) Time: 8pm Meeting place: TBC   an outing to eat, drink, chat, watch movie, rounding, go dam eat ice cream   Very near my exams le.

[jamesgoh13]

Luvpuzzle: Enjoy ur Cameron trip! Hope to join u nxt time! Ride safe!

Vtec III, I only find it rather bit jerky during low speed when picking up. But when reach to a certain speed it become smoother...

 

Stability is there when high speed but actual facts, all bigger CC bikes r pretty stable at higher speed. Frm my encounter, I got a slight knk b4 & still able to ctrl the bike & prevent it to fall but nt to the extent as in at a high speed of cuz...So i can say stability is there.

 

Cornering is base on someone limits & skills...If u cant handle it naturally the cornering will nt be stable, but if u r steady enuff to ctrl ur own veh i believe u will be able to ctrl it to ur limitations...

 

These r wad i feel abt riding, therefore there's no need for any comparisons. Juz enjoy ur own ride. It's u who ctrl the rides, nt any other riders. Ride beyond ur limits, nt over it....

 

My 2 cents! Correct me if i'm wrong...Cheers!

6750RPM for VTEC 1

6250RPM for VTEC 2

 

VTEC 3 I'm not sure. James, pls advise

Frm wad i knw,

 

Spec 3 Vtec kicks in @ 6350rpm for 1st-4th gear..5th & 6th kicks in at 6750rpm.

 

Vtec is nt any power boost or add any turbo to ur bike. Its juz a system dat helps in controlling the petrol consumption at high speed which normally will only be use more on long distance touring purposes.

 

Spec 3 is juz a modified version frm Spec 1 & 2 if u notice the Vtec dat kicks in differently between the 2 models.

 

All bikes or rather all vehicles I wud say is dat, is the gear ratio related.

 

Low gear = Rougher rides due to the drags

High gear = Smoother rides.

 

Therefore Vtec is juz a sys to control the smoother flow rate of the petrol. Vtec is juz the control point for the valves to open dat allows petrol to flow in smoother therefore leading to a smoother rides.

 

If u wan special turbo charge or power booster den i wud say dat will be another installations dat u hav to mod to the vehicles itself.

 

Therefore juz hope pple wun hav the wrong impression dat Vtec is a power booster to the bike.

 

Above is my limited knowledge of Vtec. Pls advised if i'm wrong.

Correct...

 

But wan to ask u ar, 1 sus at the back or 2 suspension at the back more stable ar?

If u ask me, I wud say definitely the more the better. Therefore i'll choose 2 sus...

 

Cuz suspension is an item dat supports ur rides. It act as a absorber frm the shocks u get frm the ride on the road.

 

Single suspension is more for racing purposes as track roads r rather more even & smooth.

 

In sg roads, u wun knw when u will kena any potholes or bumps, but if u kena its the suspension dat did its job. It absorbs the shock & balance it out, therefore u wun lost ur stability dat easily.

 

I can't explain much in this cuz i ownself oso can't be sure of it. But hope this can helps.

Actually, no.

 

Dual-shocks are supposed to be oudated a long time ago. Scramblers which are built to deal with high-stroking surfaces are designed with mono-shocks as well.

 

Dual-shocks dampers have the tendency to cause the damping oil to foam up due to the longer strokes needed to comply with a relatively smaller change in surface condition. This is due to the fact that dual shocks are always placed nearer to wheel axles, further from the pivot of swing arm. When compared to mono-shocks, the pivoting angle of the mono-coilover only have to move alittle to adapt to alot changes in vertical height, this allows more flexibility in smoothening out bigger fluctuations while being able to cover small oscillations.

 

Mono-shocks are also more tolerant to manufacturing misalignments. It is always hard to exactly build two sets of identical of coilovers, but it is easy to achieve with just one. Just take for example, it is almost impossible to achieve the perfect balance of installations that require a pair of everything. Preload, compression, rebound and etc.

 

The only possible reasons that I can think of as to why dual-shocks still exist is probably because mono-shock linkage systems are difficult to build. It is hard to design frame structures to accomodate mono-shocks within the pivot. It is also probably more expensive to develop mono-shock systems.

 

When you are saying that dual-shocks probably provide a more stable or plush ride, I don't think the likes of Yamaha Fazer, FJR1300, Suzuki Hayabusa, Honda VFR, STX1300 pale in comparison. Yes, they are all mono-shock bikes.

 

No offence bro! Just to clear up some doubts.

[jamesgoh13]

No worries man...Thanks for the correction! If nt i'll still be living in the world of 2 suspensions...Keke!

 

Din knw much abt suspensions, juz tot dat cuz of stability den dual shocks will be better in terms of supporting the weights...

 

Anyway learnt something new, thanks!

 

AhGui: Hopes Tourer had ans ur queries....
