[tg0dmw]

Thx for being so welcoming. but im just 19. will the insurance be a killer?

 

I havent got license yet. tue taking test. sure pass one!! (must be confident ma) hahaha.

 

also, i like touring, so wanna ask u all, if HB boxes need special rack to fit onto the revo?

 

cause all the old S4s need special custom rack rite? wanna know if revo needs, since the exhaust pipe is much lower?

get ur bike raceshield-ed. it's good protective layer of strong film.

[aprilia82]

get ur bike raceshield-ed. it's good protective layer of strong film.

 

I saw the raceshield ad but it just puts on a clear plastic sheet on the bike but does not enhance the outlook and its pretty expensive. Would still prefer tank bra.

[Hideaway]

tat one i not sure, cos i nv seen any OTR before.

 

no regrets getting revo, can makan stock spec3, but cannot makan full sys:(

 

Lol, i think i am the only REVO with HB side panniers now ~ ...

 

I do it up at Sengkwang ~ you can give William a call on it .. but its pretty ex .. good worksmanship though ~

yea, if u want ur bike to be protected looking original, go for race shield. if not tank bra lor.. for me, actually i dun like tank bra. but it's a good protection to if drop then kena oil tank, sure no scratch. depends on indivisual la. for me, i've got nothing on now. hahahha..

guys do u all ever encounter a scenario whereby when u are stopping u can't kick the gear down. Like it's stuck between 2 gears or sorts. Then u have to clutch in and out to kick the gear down.

Any idea what might be causing the problem and how to prevent /rectify it?

Thanks

[tg0dmw]

Hi Revo Riders,

 

Any of you encountered the meter go one round (similar to when you turn the ignition key on) when you press the starter button to start the engine?

And it happens only occasionally.... not everytime you start...

the so-called plastic sheet is tough n strong, really provides protection.

I had done a switch for my head light. But that was months back. Is it the case?

Could be..otherwise, I can't think off any reason that things like that happened by itself. Mototiam could have accidentally done something...but then again..doing the switch is just cutting one of the blue or white wire at the H4 socket. The switch maybe giving the problem oso as high current is invovled here. what type of switch is use...those small electronics one?

[GaarA]

yoz, i had been experiencing unstable handling when corning with my bike. corner cant really go down much, the handle bar macham very hard to turn , and when corning kena uneven roads, will wobble ...

Have to check this in order of importance:

 

1) Check if the tyre worn surface is uneven (wavy or 'ripple' like) and tyre pressure..at least 220 (250 be great).

 

2) Is there any dent around at any point of the circumference of your front rim.

 

3) Cone bearing lock nut..is it loose or overtighten.

 

4) Front axle bearing.

 

5) Fork oil..since when last service..in case unbalance.

 

6) Brake caliper loose or not.

 

Good luck.
