No leh... maybe check again after fill up... Is it common to have liquid flowing out from the 2 tubes underneath our bike? Smell like some gasoline...

 

Yes it is common,one tube is for your fuel tank overflow,the other is for you battery water overflow.

halo bros,

 

long time no come in here...

 

sory if i miss all the outings...

anyone changing tires soon..? me going early jan mayb during the first week.. which better? change the rear only or set? front is M3 still in good condition... M3 rear is out of stock at unique... might be going for pirelli corsa III or michelin SC2

[testamant]

I heard from my friend today that GSR400 is prone to overheating problem? second, is part easily available? from first page, it seems a bit difficult for part but that post is dated 2005. it has been four years? still the same? GSR400 is only from PI right? how about warranty? I am sorry. I am not familiar with the way things work here.

 

 

This is not flame bait. I am considering between this bike or super4.

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Come on Bro,overheating only occurs to a bike with poor maintenace,Parts is offcourse easy to find, just make sure enuff dough.And it does comes warranty 1year maxx.aniwae goodluck choosing your preference,cause i can see that there are more peoplechoosing GSR over S4 and it all comes down to preference:thumb:

wanna change go for 1 set is better because of worn out profile may cause lousy performance Pirelli Corsa might be better:thumb:

To all who replied, thank you so much for your time. I am more inclined for GSR for the look and better handling. I am just a bit worried over the reliability. Maintenance is gonna cost me a lot if bike poses a lot of problem. Money is not easy to come by nowadays. hehe.

 

Do you mind PM me on the recommended shop if posting is not convenience? Do you normally service your bike where you bought it at? Thanks.

 

I am 90% to GSR now.

 

Thank you again

any bike will over heating probems if the coolant is not topped up properly or maintained. my friend's cb400 project big 1 (which is known for its bomb-proof engine) had to change the whole block assembly. due to: over heating probems. he hasnt flushed his coolant since he bought the bike in 2005. all he did was keep topping up with water. end up the internal parts cracked and coolant leaked all over.

 

his total bill: $2583.

btw im selling my h-pack. anyone interested call me.. price neg

Greetings fellow gissers~ Ive been riding my gsr for 3 months already now.. bought 2nd hand though.. its a monster machine when u blast it. but.. i have a small problem with the bike.. whenever i clutch in my rpm will drop and result in stalling the bike.. when to service my FI then tune it back.. same prob.. this time round.. the rpm is inconsistent.. sometime too high sometime too low.. i have to rev (blow) abit then the rpm will go back to normal. any of u guys here have any problems similar to mine? i need help.. im tired of wasting my money and getting the same results again n again..

[innocenti]

So today i went down to bike shop and told the mech of this problem even after retuning, and he said maybe the motor for the FI is the problem.. and that is gonna cost a bomb.. damnit... with this condition.. i even managed to cruise to KL last month.. this sunday cruising to malacca.. hahaha!! still able to blast it till 190km/h with no problems.. only when i clutch in release throttle.. the damn needle will drop (at times) and then.. stall... headache.. i dun mind with the condition.. but the wife is riding it too... and she is so small.. if stall sure she kanchiong.. pity her man...

Set bike to dealer mode and monitor the FI codes. That may tell what is the issue. You said you service and retune the FI, how was it done? Juz curious. May I also ask what is your idiling rpm?
