[zen n 2wheels maintenance]

can i check with anyone :

when you change engine oil, the price of $5 - $7 , does this includes the oil or we have to pay additional for oil?

 

btw, do you guys ride with both the headlights on or just the 'dimmer' light on? i realised that when i on both headlights, my signals go abit haywire..throw tantrum and doesn't light up or goes on/off. is this normal? or was it that my battery dying?

[zen n 2wheels maintenance]

try that...u'll probably get a 'baked' paintwork and a roasted 'ah hua' on top of that.(served with a plate of rice and garnish).

 

No doubt walk-in ovens are common esp. in car autoshop. cars' paintjob may especially be preferred to do it in there because it takes relatively longer time to paint as compared to cars and a dust-free environment(which may not be 100%) is an advantage in such situation. (of course..being in there means a space is saved @ workshop) As for bikes, it's a total waste of space and job's usually faster than cars'. juz as long as there's no big fans churning up dust, the bike's relatively safe.

 

To add...baking process may on may not be used on paint jobs. basically the use of heat on fresh paint is to speed the evaporation of thinners. nothing more than that. But depending on paint used, it can to promote the reaction of binding components. (ain't going into molecular development)

morning peeps!how is everyone today?any plans for a saturday?

[Sharpey]

 

The types of laquer used for air dry and those used for bake dry differ... air dry laquers aren't as durable.

[Sharpey]

Zen... you may have a contact problem with one of your rear indicators (where the cowl attaches to the frame)... this can cause your headlight to flash along with your indicators... get it checked out... should hopefully be a quick and cheap fix.

 

Always ride with headlight on highbeam during the day, lowbeam at night.... being as visible as possible to other motorists.

[Sharpey]

and yep... $5-$7 includes the oil...

[Sharpey]

Kenny.... really finishing painting today....? I wanna see! Let me know ok

[Wildswans]
