dismantle everything.. dont spray from the bike.. not that cannot lah.. but, do things the right way man..

 

at the rear, behind the tail light, just above the mudguard, should be 2 nuts that lock the seat in place.. unscrew that, and the seat will come off..

 

then, u can see the nut that keeps the tank in place.. undo that one too...

turn off ur fuel, and unplug the tube thats connected to ur fuel co.ck.. unplug one of the cables in there too..

then u should be able to lift ur tank right off...

 

 

then spray.. preferably somewhere where there is no wind.. cos the dust will just f*** up ur paint job...

 

Bro,

 

just to confirm the screw thingy,

 

for the seats its just above the mudguard, view from the back, its after the fenders?

 

for the fuel tank, i need to turn off the fuel, unplock the fuel tube connected to the fuel c.oc.k NOT the one just b4 my fuel filter right?

 

having said tat, doesnt the fuel will leak off from the fuel tank when i remove it??

 

also tat means, i can like dismantle the parts i want to spray, and leave the rest at the MSCP, do all the stuff at the comfort of my home, den install back, say in the evening.

 

sorry to ask a lot of question, a newbie to bike

hey i'm not sure how it all works exactly but you should drain your fuel from the tank into a rust-free container before carrying out your paint job. good luck!

guyz,

 

just an update of a horific find i had today while korek korek my bike.

 

apparently the workshop tat i buy the RXK took out the air filter.

 

wtf rite...so the chance of the engine getting dirtier is higher and higher break down lead to higher chance i go back to his workshop for repair...

 

i tink they didnt realise tat nowadays bikers are prone to noe their bike inside our wif the help of forums and internet...

 

sigh...hav to install air filter..additional cost...

for the seats: Yes, should be those 2 screws...

 

fuel tank: nope, it wont leak, cos u turned off the fuel already...

 

for bring things up to spray: can, but cover ur bike la..

 

u can drain the fuel first if u want to, it would be better la.. cos carrying a full tank is heavy.. haha.. u should la actually, cos u most probably will be dismantling the fuel cap as well so that u can spray around that area too...

Hi

 

Yeah that would be great! I've met people from SBF before (i am also on the RXZ forum obviously) and i buy parts from time to time from Singapore as for me the situation is reversed - Singapore got all the RXZ parts that i can't find here in Bangkok.

 

Right now need a meter set but dun have the money at the moment, just got back from a one-week holiday up north yesterday evening.

 

Make sure to contact me when you come here - i am available generally morning hours (i work late 12 to 9 pm), my number +66 8 6313 2874 (but no point in sending SMS, i can't send or receive to/from overseas number)

 

Best regards.....

airfilter? rx-k has air-box.i dont think so its air filter.. or u referring to the foam filter inside the air box? if that's the thg u referring to, then its fine.. no worries.. i've had 2 rx-k and both has no foam filter and both have holes on their air-box for better air flow and there's no problem.. so its not an issue

What stuff u getting man? U hav the eBay page the guy selling?

 

i'm just getting things like fork covers those vintage headlights all this kind of stuff.. probably some stuff tt cant find in spore then go sell.. hahah

 

u can search for this users on ebay. biskenso2007 bkk_classicbike and motorclassicshop. alot of vintage parts. theres this user who's based in spore and sell abit of old parts also.. but he dont meet ppl only send stuff through singpost. oldpartsshop.. u can try searching for their ebay store and see wat they have. but some things quite costly plus shipping might as well go there and buy yourself if u getting alot of stuff..
