[Group] YAMAHA Rx, Rx-S & Rx-K

(MORE DETAILED DISCUSSION) Sometimes it's not the bowl below the fuel c0ck that leak, if that's the case, it might be leaking from the tap itself. Namely the part where u turn the on off res lever.

 

(Solution) There is two screws beside this lever, undo it and remove the plate/lever etc. You will see this odd shaped washer. What u do is take two pliers and bend it to be more uneven. The uneveness actually forces the seal in when u screw everything back.

 

(Note) The washer looks like ~ in side view. Just make it more pronounced. And rem to empty tank before u do this, or have little fuel so u can tilt it to the side. IF NOT, fuel will splash out everywhere when u disassemble the fuel c0ck.

Erm guys i got this problem since ytd. I warm up bike as usual, but when move off abt 5k RPM the bike bogs down and stall. Sometimes in the middle of the road. I have to baby it, let off throttle when it bogs and move off like damn slowly. Anyone has any idea why is it like that? It goes away after about 10 mins of 'babying' it.

Guys, i need some advice.

 

The mech which i always go in yishun told me its time to service my brakes.

So can anyone here recommend me a workshop which can get the job done and also do it with good result.

I wanted to change both the front and rear.

[astroemo]

Btw Bear i just changed my seat to the shop u recommended.

 

Very Satisfied.

Brake pads any shop can do. It's a simple affair. Any chance you took a foto of your seat? Is it original or u changed to something else?

[ben1112]

Anyways i found out the bogging from my engine is due to water go in the carb...

Brake pads i change already. I wanted to so called overhaul my braking system. When i push my brake lever in its like the same when i press my clutch lever. Thats how bad it is.

 

As for my rear brake when i press it down hard, a loud screeching sound can be heard.

[astroemo]

This is how my seat looks like.

And i just change the rear mudguard which i think its ugly.

 

Honestly speaking the more i look at my bike, the uglier i feel it is.

Front brake go for 'bleeding', rear brake must change wheel hub (wear n tear).

Also nearly as simple. Any shop will do... Bleed the brakes and check if the master cylinder is in good condition. Top up with brake fluid. Maybe there's air in ur lines.
