which one?? he ride wat bike.. if 10 rm..super worth it!

For X1, opening the valve cover to tighten the valve tappet clearances is relatively easy. Cos its non water-cooled, super easy access (without need to dismantler much fairings at all) and most importantly- its two-valves only. All these was done without dismantling the block head. But in any case, RM10 is a STEAL! IMHO! (Provided he can do a good job).

 

Anyway bro, FYI, yours (complete top end) was completely stripped down, all four valves were lap down to their respective seats (so that the valves will seat perfectly. As wear and tear will cause the valves to eat into the valve seat, thus compromising on the sealing. And in turn, lose hp.), checked and washed everything, fitted back everything according to factory spec in the exact tolerance (measured using proper feeler gauges). Not by 'feel' usually done by those msian mech on 2-valves engine.

 

Cheers!~

[pyro13]

yea!!

 

i feel so good!!

 

thanks stroker..must say..miney well spent!!

wat its means?

[Refugee]

it means... 10 bucks is VERY CHEAP...

 

IIRC, IMHO, in my humble opinion....

 

oh... IIRC, if i remember correctly...

 

[ImEG]

oic:smile:

[Refugee]

btw does valve clearance require the draining of coolant?

[pyro13]

they will drain it and refill it after everyting

[Benguin46]

so chim. hahaha! next time get bike do service dedn see how they do. maybe ill understand better. haha

[Refugee]

refill new coolant or use back the same coolant?

[pyro13]

for mine they replace with new one

Hi, Jux wanna ask have any one mod their wave by changing to 135cc racing block, piston and racing cam in jb? Whats the pros and cons?? ls it worth it? what about fuel consumption?? Will the engine tahan the mods anot? Im afraid to spoile the engine.

[pyro13]

wen u change the secs..the power will be ter..but ur engine cialat.

 

the FC of cos higher..

 

for wat..

 

u upgrade ur engine lso wun be as fast as a spark..

 

Fnee upgraded his wave and he has to change his EO every 2 weeks

[Ashcroftx]

Next solution :

 

If you want speed, petrol consumption will of coz be higher.

 

Same theory goes, u want good petrol consumption, speed is affected.

 

Upgrade to S4 or CBR 400 or RVF or GSX

[pyro13]

or have a lot..but WRX

[Ashcroftx]

Lambo larr

[Refugee]

gallardo is quite out of reach for most people...

 

zondas would be a really nice, fast and expensive to own... insurance: 60K... Road Tax is around 12k.. IIRC....

[pyro13]

insurance 60K??or OTR

[Refugee]

insurance... otr is 3million...

[stantheman]

This one is modified cubs tread leh! why suddenly all the super cars come out??

By the way i just downgraded from an ST11 cuz need to zip around town to work every morning to avoid jams.. If u ask me to upgrade to 2A, I rather use the $$ to buy a cls 2 bike, Coz i find 2A bikes are a waste of $$

btw stantheman, off topic posts are rampant here... just get used to it... after a while, it gets boring and nobody bothers to post constructively...

 

generally, engine mods to larger cc comes with slightly better performance but fuel consumption is largely affected...

 

since your engine block is made for wave to 135cc, not big bored to 135... i DUN THINK you'll have the 2-week-EO-change problem...

 

dun think anyone with that experience would reply you anyway...

[Ashcroftx]

Seriously, i would say 2A is waste of $$ but, i go for the expierence.

 

In life everything must try!

[stantheman]

lol... ashcroftx tio bang...

No lah! I where got bang ppl:cheeky: No hard feelings man ashcroftx bro! Its true that 2A bikes are selling at sky-rocket prices... especially CBRs and RVFs. I used to ride a FQ RVF ard 4years back. At that time my bike shop took my bike for close to 8k... Thats already very high at that time for trade in... other shops onli take in 7-7.5k max. U see what are the prices ppl selling their RVFs now?? If im still riding my RVF, i can say that my yearly depreciation is less den a wave man

[pyro13]

if u wan a 135cc but u dun wan FC to be disturbed.

 

y not change to a spark??
