Yamaha YZF-R6

[ambasnakeman]

U-turn or high speed turn, always bank(lean) the bike. its when u try to do upright turns that create wobbles.

 

U-turn.....1st gear....no half clutch...rev and control with foot brake.

i fell at PS muti-story carpark when gonna exit its a down slop(if you guys can rem) when i was about to turn right and i making a upright sharp turn with pillion. not enough speed to carry me through to corner and the weight of my pillion put me down "boom" there goes my bike. i got no sliders thats y fairling and oil tank gone. oil tank is the EX one .

 

becareful guys when negotiating low speed corner. bad example here

Lion, welcome to the R6 family. Remember me?

 

Jeffrey, how could I ever forget you?

 

Collecting my R6 this coming Sat. Next day trackday somemore but wun be going. Like snake said, very crowded. PG becomes OG, Orchard Gudang.

 

Will likely find a quiet weekday to go in and practise first before heading for my long-due trackday. I can ask you along if you want to join me.

[StormBlde]

wondering if the 08 model side tank cover will crack easily anot. think the 06/07 model one cracks easily. whole stack at hong leong.

I'm very disappointed with Hong Leong.

Many people thought i already got my 08R6 but the truth is i have not.

My bike shop said that Hong Leong **** up my ordering.

 

Hong Leong say i'm the first or first few in Singapore that place order for 08R6, say i order too early (Oct 2007) in the end they miss out my order. (crap)

 

I demand my bike from the 1st batch shippment or i want compensation. (advise from my bike shop)

 

They lan lan go try recall back bike that not yet registered but really no more.

 

No choice now i gotta wait for the 2nd shippment that arrive after Chinese New Year!

 

Currently seeking compensation from Hong Leong.....

Must wait for their big boss return from overseas.....

[DC84]

last part..........

 

 

hey its illegal right? but u still do it... how is it any different?

[mich]

try try ma...feltresponse abit better..as for sound so much diff..anyway its sealed back lik original,just waiting for the polish part to fade into yellowish colour..

sorry typo erro, should be not much diff..sorry bro hazi24,now i know why u thought i said alot of diff...

[Wayang]

For me 80~95kmh lor. Within speed limit.

 

Temp is 80~90deg cel at constant speed on the freeways. 73~80deg cel if at night. Ever since I changed to cool-aide, temp rises fast & cool faster (so rising temp is is NOT a good gauge to lousy cooling sys, coolant)

 

A good coolant must be once with good specific heat capacity properties, which is the measure of the heat energy required to increase the temperature of an object by a certain temperature interval. Q = mcΔT is the governing principlewhere Q is the heat, m is the mass of the substance, c is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the temperature differential.

 

huh.. simi sai ?

power wise any diff? and how much you did it which bikeshop?

[DR6]

Don't know yet, must wait.

Most likely is discount a bit.
