[Sharpey]

next time then

[whazzup]

is that the one along six ave that u have to turn left into?

[narcx]

hi guys what kid of paint should i be using to touch up small areas where the paint has chipped or is peeling off?

[Sharpey]

Um... no... Its near the botanic gardens end of Nassim Road.

[Sharpey]

What colour is your paint? Do you have a paint code... Otherwise how will you get it to match....? If the paint is from a car eg Alfa Romeo Corsa Blue... then you'll be able to buy touchup paint from most paint/car places...

[narcx]

thats the problem. the paint was mixed at the shop and i dont think theres a code. can i just show them my paint and ask for a can?

[Sharpey]

Not really... you wont get a perfect match... try your luck...

[vigano]

its good to know where the radiator is... but you wont be really able to check without removing the front glove box...

 

GT200 Pic....

 

check it out.... but still... dun bother yourself too much to check if your temp gauge is at half mark when travelling

[gremlin_loh]

Wow.. good link u have given to mi.. nw then i noe tat 1 is radiator.. i really a noob to GT200.. in tat case i dun think i able to check the radiator.. think have to take out the front fairing rite?? will belt and roller affect those problem??

[Refugee]

dude, the circled part is not the exact radiator... that is the 'window grill' to the radiator outlet... if you look inside, you'll see the radiator...

 

belt and rollers are in a seperate compartment to the radiators... so dun bother to check those 2 things...

 

but anwyay.. dun lose sleep over your temp gauge at half... its normal... lol...

 

cheers!

[Wildswans]

Hi ppl. already checked all the forums, stellaspeed, bbs plus plus but I still can't seem to find my answer.

 

Called Mdm soh from TA to tow my bike tmr to get the massive work done so that when I come back I have time riding it instead of bringing to the shop just to leave it there for a few days and before I know it its time to return to Jakarta. Tot I post for opinions before I specify to Mdm Soh what I would like done.

 

These are my exiciting plans:

 

1)Cruciform is alraedy busted, probably rebuild the transmission to change all the worn out parts

 

2)Pinasco cylinder kit, well with all the good feedback on it it seems like a must.

 

3)"Tong" my exhaust, easy way out for a semi expanded chamber. (importing and waiting for the shipping is quite an a*** no time for it esp when I do not know whether will I be in S,pore or Jakarta when it arrives.

 

4) upgrade my carb to a 24/24.....but I only want to stick to the stock jet that comes with it, they do come with stock jets right? does not seem to make sense they reuse the old main jet from the 20/20 carb, From what I understand only those with want better performance fiddle with the main,idle jet and mixer and change to a richer 118 or 120 for main. Know that the vortex 24 is the best but like I said, the shipping is an a***.

 

Now, is there a "better" 24/24 carb? 24/24e, 24/24g? Which one does TA sells? heard the G(used on the t5) is better because it uses a uni filter but.... What the hell does that mean??? DEcisions decisions decision!

 

Went over to stellastats as well but everyone has diff prefered settings, which is the "best" one? heard the climate as something to do with what to choose as well.... oh man!

 

Suggestions and help is appreciated, buy u guys kopi when I come eventually meet up with u guys.
