[Archived - 2012] F.N.O. - Weekly Friday Night Out

[SNapEl]

and I clocked a new top speed at 135km/h (on phantom speedo...)

 

Going down hill?

 

and its usually -10km/h so abt 125km/h

[hamsterwhale]

at least can clock 125...me 100 nia....

 

saw the aftermath of the crash barrier at BKE heading towards SLE last night, it was banged last fri around 3am(saw it while going home aft FNO)...which caused the slip road to be none accessible, as usual divvy 900, wrx, mp3, tow truck, and a odd vehicle, a SOC truck was seen there...wassup with dat man???

 

anyway the barrier was almost uprooted with one of the foundation for the guard rail exposed...

 

Cheers!

[VidaK]

phantom can hit that high? must be vibrating like mad?

 

vibrate a little bit only

 

thanks to my thick-thin oil and lots and lots of chain lube (LOL fling everywhere)

[VidaK]

Going down hill?

 

and its usually -10km/h so abt 125km/h

 

damn... you guessed it... yea its a slight downhill... but when going down steeper downslopes the speed won't reach even 130km/h... to reach over 130km/h on my bike I need to keep throttle at 90%, where I can feel the most power (torque)... maybe need a little tuning...

 

I can't imagine that younger phantoms can hit 150km/h... it just doesn't make sense...

sure?? so what EO should i use? price?

 

 

chainlube is it alright to use the bicycle lube? $10 per can. GT61

[VidaK]

I think you have to try a variety, and see which one you like best...

 

currently my phantom is running on chessa chex 9000, 10w50 fully syn... Its not bad, no gear shifting problems, no rough noise... forgot the price but should be about $15... gonna try 5w60 oils next

 

as for chain lubes... here are opinions:

 

kev: engine oil

 

snapel: maxima wax

 

ah chong: butter (LOL)

 

I use ows lube

 

there is this debate of wetter lube - more fling vs dryer lube non-fling, I prefer wetter ones... a better lube chain is always more important than rear rim cleaniness... but not like the fling problem is very serious ha

oh.. basically $15 dollar EO the best lahz ;-) cause my friend say just buy the $15 EO will do..

 

chainlube = GT oil are dry and non-sticky oil.. very light(weight) oil too. cause i use them on my road bicycle ;-) maybe can share share..

Hi guys, as lun said, try not to chit chat in this thread. Do it in the chit chat thread and leave this one for the friday trips aye?

[VidaK]

oops ya lets cut this chatter

u wan go faster???open throttle fully till u feel that the clutch has slight slippage, den u close ur throttle slightly and open slightly again, this is to prevent clutch slippage, and prematurely busting it...

5W60????!!!! good luck if ur block is still there to ride after 20,000km with no overhaul needed....

[ausa]

This chit chat thread is very popular and overwhelming

I use ows lube

 

 

According to Honda manual, it suggest Gear oil SAE 90. I never find this kind of oil on Market in Singapore. I use to use gear oil on my bike. It works good. But it makes the gear shift looks very messy.

[ausa]

Actually beside using oil to lubricate, most importantly not to forget to clean the chain and keep it clean most of the time.

and I clocked a new top speed at 135km/h (on phantom speedo...)

 

phantom can hit that high? must be vibrating like mad?

Going down hill?

 

and its usually -10km/h so abt 125km/h

at least can clock 125...me 100 nia....

mayb we go out tgt try try.. i last time was only 140km/hr

but during the last kulai trip i go with them, when coming back i hit 150km/hr

i also dunno whether is it meter problem or wat.. mayb we can go out tgt we try side by side see?

 

 

 

i know i say all this with no prove.. but i will try make a day i can join u guys for a night i try side by side with u guys see if i am wrong, mayb my meter spoilt?

[Guest B_E_N]

EO use wat also can.. depends on the bike actually.. same model but diff bike might feel diff with diff EO

 

but most important i can say is must have enough EO and change often.. dun wait until like 3k KM den change, to me 2k KM already too much le.. normally i change monthly.. which is about 1k plus KM

[Guest B_E_N]

[cumified]

Pillion, unfortunately.

[VidaK]

ok people let's not do chit chats here ok... or else others will start breathing fire again...

[Guest B_E_N]

oh am i the 1? seems like..

 

i like kinda blacklisted in SBF liao huh

[SNapEl]

... ay no one is blacklisted la.

 

We just need to be somewhat considerate to the purposes of the threads.

Now talk here a bit should not be too much of a problem cause no one post template yet.

 

But still, try to chit chat at the appropriate thread (PK chit chat corner...no kopi provided)

If we keep chatting here the threads all get messed up with related topics all over the place and it makes it difficult for ppl to keep current or source information, esp regarding meetup times and itineraries...

[hamsterwhale]
