Maybe u can change the protector the one which have 2 screws to the colored one?

[ooniq]

once u change something, it's consider modification... and i wouldn't want to mess with pipes cos it comes with a heavy price tag

[Guest rogerng]

changing it to a nicer and smaller one is sure to attract the TP riders. maybe you can change the heat shield to another colour.

Hi all wavers,

 

I went to JB LAB on wed to change the following

 

Michelin Pilot sport front and back with new tubes --- RM120

Suspension---- RM 100

oil and plug --- RM26

 

 

Then i ask about the following --

 

front brake pad --- RM20+

rear brake pad --- RM30+

good sport rim(3 spokes) RM400+

not so good one --- RM220+

suspension with "Ohlims" empty cannister(i think) --- RM 180

 

I think i can only rem these....

anyway the lady told me they are gonna have a sale next month but she din say exactly wat will be on sale. so maybe u guys wanna pop by next month to buy some stuffs.

what engine oil you change? and for the rear brake pad is a drum one rite? i don't think so expensive lah.. mine kriss but i think almost the same bah... mine cost RM12 only.... front disc brake pad around Rm20 or cheaper i think....tyre with tube should be around that price by the way.... if anything... ask me... some of the part i know the price... cos im malaysian.... if not... i can always ask for you all... just afraid sometimes they just anyhow chop singapore registered bikes... so be sure to ask around before you change anything lah... hope my 2 cents worth....

wah

batalax?

think that's the model pple usually use on sportbikes right? yet to c any wave using that brand yet.....but perhaps u can stick to the 2 model of tyres as recommended here? the tt900 and michelin pilot sport

 

and sorry to hear abt yr accident...but how u buang until both sides of the bike kena? hrmz..mirrors can get frm spore LAB very cheap only...below $10 if im not wrong

balances also can get aftermarket ones which r metallic colors...also ard $10

as for the chainguard...depends u wan to hammer back to original shape or simply change to a aftermarket one lor...not sure how much a aftermarket one would cost thou

and how's the wiring for the ERP unit like huh? perhaps can try buying some of those normal wires ard and link back the connection lor...then use some tape to tape up the exposed wirings...

can i ask what is a balancer? is that for us to rest our foot while we are not changing gear or braking? thanks for informations!

btw ive tried tt900 on my previous bike....rxz...

cant really make it during the rain...i used to slip n slide on those tyres...

tats y thought of batalax...btw anyone using tt100 aka roadmaster?heard those tyres have gd grip both rain n shine....but not sure?any comments?btw mysterio wat suspension u changed to?cos i also wanna change mine cos mine still the stock ones...any idea where can get cheap 2nd hand showas? heard some shops actually sellin them with the serial no on the receipt to prove tat u bought them....

or anyone care to recommend any shocks?

 

 

thanks guys

tt100? i skid with that before le.... what do you think? if rain easy to skid one lah... no matter what tyre you use... just be careful and keep appropriate distance with vehicles...

huh? angsana plaza? dont know where is that leh

only passed by it before last time when i travelled in via public transport

im still damn new to JB roads wor

just around that shell you mentioned before.... i think there are actually 3 or 4 outlets... left most back to seaside but can't get to custom.... but can get back to around the U turn when you come out from custom. so the correct route should be the middle one... if there are 2 at the middle, ie. there are 4 outlets, choose that one got sign shows "TUN AMINAH" or what lah.... that's what i remember. once you get to the correct route, just go straight can see plaza angsana around 10 to 15 mins depends on traffic and ur speed... the plaza is on ur right hand side by the way... for the shop.... i never been there before...

Balancer is that metal knob at the side-end of the handlebar.

i got no idea abt the yahoo thingy... the site seems dead to me now...

if u just come out from custom, it's easier to ride along pantai lido... all the way until u reach the main rd u can see the angsana plaza on the right side, merging the same rd as per nite_fire direction...

[Guest fearless.]

thanx wavers here for the reply on the exhaust...

 

me got a progrip raincoat selling for $30 blue in colour size M, anyone interested?

[repsol79]

today my friend bought a wave .

it was a yr old bike plate NO FW 5****

The cost of the bike is $2200 on the road.

the condition of the bike was exelent.

he needed too up another $400 because of his age and he just pass his licence he is only 19 yrs old.

so wat do You guys think was it a bargain or my friend kena ketok!!!

Maybe u could JOIN back the wires and it maybe still can be of USE! Try first and then feedback it HERE!

wanna ask u guys.....whether u all got warm up ur bike before u move....if got how long do u all usually warm up??

What i notice after using Multi-Viscosity Engine Oil and Monograde Engine Oil One at a time.

 

Multi-Viscosity Engine Oil = Fast Warm up. Maybe due to the low viscosity when cold and the oil can go thru the engine faster.

 

Monograde Engine Oil = Have to take some time like 2 to 3 mins before moving off. If engine still COLD and u want to move off it will STALL. Restart and warm up again after warm up then can move off.

 

So advantages?

 

Multi-Viscosity = more costly than monograde but faster warm up!

 

Monograde = much cheaper and economical but slow warm up!

 

Why choose a synthetic oil ?

Semi-synthetic and synthetic oils are made from non-conventional bases using sophisticated chemical processes which confer special properties to the finished product.

First, the high level of viscosity of the base oils used gives the finished lubricant remarkably stable viscosity whatever the temperature. This property is one of its major advantages over mineral oils, made from conventional bases which require a greater number of additives in order to improve viscosity.

The stability of lubrication in all temperatures guarantees optimum efficacy in the cold starting phase which is particularly demanding on the engine – as well as under conditions of extreme heat. Synthetic-based lubricants show greater resistance to oxidation, which gives them longer effective life thus guaranteeing longer engine life.

The use of non-conventional bases, finally, permits the elaboration of more fluid lubricants, without being more volatile; resulting in a reduction of oil consumption.

 

Therefore, choosing a synthetic based oil is the technologically advance choice, for greater efficacy, longevity and controlled oil consumption.

 

 

What are the advantages of a multigrade oil ?

A multigrade oil is one whose properties have been artificially modified to reduce changes in its viscosity with temperature changes.

A multigrade oil will be more fluid at low temperatures and thicker at high temperatures than a monograde oil.

Concretely, that means that when the vehicle is not being used (for several hours), the engine oil sinks in the crankcase so that, on starting, it takes a certain amount of time (a few microseconds) to again reach all parts of the engine that need to be lubricated. Since a multigrade oil is more fluid at low temperatures, it reaches the various engine components more quickly than a monograde oil, thereby reducing wear on starting.

Multigrade oil allow "saving fuel" around 1.5% to 3% then monograde oil

Multigrade oils provide better engine protection at low and high temperatures than monograde oils, in that they maintain optimum viscosity over the engine operating temperature range.

 

 

 

 

Lastly! The choice is YoUrS!.
