[Group] SBF Yamaha Nouvo

[Uncle]

just how did you get 50km/l??? i'm impressed!! i also ride more on the highways and the best i could muster is about 40-42km/l and that's riding at 70-80km/hr. lol...

 

I realised some issue with the earlier formula. Had re-adjusted it. 42+ consistantly is not an issue. On the few days that I take highways, it jumped to 47+. Maybe I always ride single?

 

 

you cannot say that. right now, i'm seeing more nouvo riders on the road. for me, i just COI-ed my gf's bike and this nouvo is damn good for a 2nd bike!! about pipes, i've seen before a JB bike with a nice engine sound, a bit like gilera but i'm not sure how he did it.

 

anyway, sorry to intrude. i'm really a new guy to the world of autos. where do you guys service your bike? just now, i serviced at WY, amk industrial. they told me, for nouvo, best use the yamaha oil. cost $9 for 800ml. any difference with those 15-40 synthetic ones or 20-50 semi-synthetics ones? for my other bike, i've always use fully synthetic though. so, im really curious.

 

also for spark plug, i've changed at every 10k. is that ok? and the belting, they say must change every 10-15k. but when my gf bought the bike, they told her to change every 1 year or 30k. so, now i'm confused cos the bike is already at 19k but still feels fine though.

 

I think our Nouvo really meant to be economical. Most shops will ask you to service or change this and that earlier, cos that's where they make money. Just follow the recommended schedule in the user's manual will do.

true uncle! fuel consumption around mid 40s to 40s high if riding in the hiway at max 90kmh. i manage to get 170km with v-power, kl-melaka.

$38 for transfer is standard LTA price and non-bargainable. $1.5k for the bike is dirt cheap. If you use it for 4-5 years, maybe can still sell $1k. Do factor in insurance.

 

for sports bike, they called it 'FAIRING'..so for dis kinda bike, wat they called??

 

scooter

 

cosmetic?..i wanted to spray all black..is it cheaper to spray OR change the WHOLE entire cosmetics?? any idea how much?and the location?

 

if you spray, people may think that you kanna accident before when you try to sell the bike. I will think spraying is cheaper than changing, just like you paint a wall is cheaper than you reconstruct a new wall. No idea on pricing for bikes but whole car costs about $2k.

 

lastly, wat is da difference between MX and ELEGANCE?sory.i know NOTHING bout dis bike..pyseh hor..thks in advance

 

MX is the earlier model and 115cc. Elegance is 135cc, water-cooled, new carb design, new body design.

i 2nd tat. if heavier roller install, wat is the reaction? long distance? no problemo.

 

Ya,its more for top end.cos i travel expressway 60% of the time.Less vibrations at higher speed for heavy rollers.But pick up loose a bit.

[-fazly-]

ahakz! can not play play at traffic light. im thinking of getting a heavy roller too but i still couldn't find weight of stock rollers

[y2kredbull]

Thats what i'm trying to find out.B-Plus told my mechanic its 11.5g per roller. My mechanic need to know so can order the correct dimensions and maybe 13g malossi or pollini rollers.Stock rollers only 1 weight.

[-fazly-]

ive been browsing over internet n find out 20*12 rollers are from yamaha vino. malossi did produce rollers for this bike.

[-fazly-]

for nouvo elegance or nouvo lc, uma racing produce it. quality not so good base on my experience using it on my other scooter but malossi are expensive, for gilera runner vxr rm110 over here.

But won't any brand of dimensions 20 x 12 fit?

[-fazly-]

mio can't fit cos dimension are different. mio/nouvo mx useh 15*12.

 

yes bro y2k, 20*12 will fit in. in kl only only uma racing avail.

 

if u ever to ask mechanic bout things u don't know or sure, most probably mechanic will say 'can...got problem u comeback ah'.
