was quoted 34 bucks for mich pilot at eunos superbike. If im not wrong the tt900(or isit tt90? ) is about 5 to 10 bucks more.

Im not sure if its reasonable price; perhaps can ask ol timers here

 

u guys change e sprocketz n chainz to diff settingz or e original?

heard tat if its diff from e original,it will vibrate more n itz noisy. Care to share ur 20centz worth?(or isit 2 centz? )

 

hmmz

sounds affordable for a new highly recommended tyre

 

think it's better to keep the sprocket + chain settings the original way they are lar

changing of bigger or smaller sprocket size may cause unnecessary stress to yr engine parts...

those engineers in Honda are not called engineers for nothing...they should have fitted the bike w/ suitable parts enough to last u for quite a while...so why change so much stuff???

spark plug better to use the one recommended in manual

NGK duno what model one...left my manual in my bike...so cant refer to it now

cause spark plugs have different values one.....

 

if u put one w/ higher than original values...the combustion caused by the spark may be greater than what is intended for the engine to tahan

 

if u put one w/ lower value than original...yr bike becomes less powerful...

 

and wow....oil change every 1k...yr bike is sure enjoying life man.....

 

p.s: can u pass me the drained out oil everytime u do a change? i help u recycle...

anyone know how much a flower disc brake cost?

of course there are good/bad advantages for spokey rims...

 

for me, i would consider safety factor over cosmetic factor, i will choose sports rims over spokey types, a bit more heavily, but more stable plus can fix on tubeless tyres...

 

i'm now in a dilemma to choose where to fix on sports rims, some say LAB, some say JB LAB, both also seems very cheap....but for now, need to save up $$ first..

sports rim if get cheap one, the hub bearing will crack over a period of usage. Get original Honda one, too expensive! so the deciding factor is still yours.

 

tube tyres puncture just bring along tube and change on the spot. about half hour job provided u have tube, levers and bicycle pump. can get tube cheaply from jb, about RM5 only. u buy in sg they charge around SGD10.
