yo shorty.no leak is ok.better check ur gaskets.

yea maybe shld try out gab's mama lemon idea.

petrol kinda makes u dizzy after sometime.

n gmoh,my buyer is waiting for his buyer who's TP is arnd next week.

so its like a complicated thing.haha

hope evrything goes well for me

 

anyway guys, i wanna ask.

how the hell can we remove e vibrations that makes ur balls numb when riding?

any ideas?

cheers jyeah!

 

Haha ya way complicated, I hope everything goes well for you as well. How much you managed to sell? Your desired price?

 

Lol vibration in the balls yo..

 

[BodilyPartsOnTheRoad]

i badly need rx manual.. who has one?.. i want to adjust idling rpm.. neutral ok.. but when 1st gear.. engine become softer.. then die.

 

 

this dun look like idling problem, suggest u check your plugs or fuel air mixture

i turn 1 screw knob solve the problem already..

 

now come the other one..

i want diy change eo but dunno how to do..

all i know unscrew dip stick and see..

 

thats why i need a manual.. so i can diy everything slowly myself.. hehe

[shorty]

using mama lemon...hmm....i'll see if it works.but i've used those grease remover b4...quite effective.once sprayed on de oil n dirt will start to flow down.den jus use soap water n sponge off.but dat is on a not so dirty bike.now dis bike de dirt n grime really thick alredy.

 

anyway abt de leaking...its a lot.if i leave de bike overnight, de next morning there wil be a pool of oil(not sure engine oil or petrol) near de side stand area.i cant see where it's dripping from.really worried abt losing EO or petrol dat way.

 

so far vibrations to de balls i dont experience.but vibrations to de hands?..YES!de handlebar vibrates like mad until my hands become like jelly!anyway to reduce de vibrations?

[zart]

i think there's no way you can get rid of the vibration since its an old bike.. but i think you can try use sponge grip?..

 

eh mama lemon really works leh..

[shorty]

mama lemon works ar?...den i tink buy dat better.if wanna buy de grease remover a bit ex la.

so anybody knows can advise whether de leaking is normal or not?

[zart]

err.. what oil leaking.. mine oso leaking.. 2t leaking.. i think got small hole..

yaa.. mama lemon so easy sia.. like wash dishes.. somemore got lemon smell..

but you need some effort in some area.. like engine area..

[shorty]

some effort ha...i tink i'll try using diesel.anyone used diesel to clean off grease n grime?...my fren he used diesel to wash our company van...very clean sia.how abt kerosene?safe to use?...wanna wash de bike tomrw n den see where de leak is coming from.

[gmoh]

I think it's quite normal for our kind of bike to leak, but if it's really bad then perhaps it's not normal already..

 

As for the vibration, you can either get handlebar with bar ends or get a heavier handlebar. My cafe handlebar is quite heavy, long distance at 80 - 85 also no prob, only thing after awhile back starts to ache lol

petrol and diesel are both quite corrosive.. try mama lemon.. if die die cannot den use petrol or diesel..

 

better to send ur bike to a good bike shop bro.. leaking is not good..

[marciano]

haha. mama lemon can really come in handy. btw gabriel, why u wanna let go of ur bike?

[shorty]

Err you know like... bigger bikes like say super4? The end of the handlebar has that metal knob thingy? Those are bar ends, so ya get a handlebar where you could fix on the bar ends. That'll add on to the weight.

[shorty]

oh....ok.i tot dat thing is called balancers.anyway anybody here ever tried going to a scrapyard?i went to 1 jus now.there's a lot of things.any parts also hv.until i don know wat i wanna buy.hehe.

petrol dries up quite instantly, bt nt engine oil or ur 2t. better duoble check.

its not worth riding on a dry engine.gonna costs u a bomb

[weiqiang]

any riding difficulties for rxk other than chimpeng's vibration thing lol? the rest of the riders have vibrations probs too? lol. any one here tried to ride vespa b4? whats the feel difference btw rxk n vespa. cus i tried vespa. very unsafe sia the feeling. very light. is rxk very light too?

In terms of feeling, K definitely feels safer. After all you have a tank there to 'kiap' and also the tyres are bigger. Vespa, I'm sure you know, I don't have to explain aha. Ks are generally quite light also la but not a big issue, just gotta be real careful on your own.

[chimpeng]

a vespa seemed unsafe coz u don have anything t grip on to. rxk doesnt seemed t have problems to me eversince e overhaul i had round april dis year.

costs quite some dollars, bt its worth e long run.

cheers
