Maxxis does manufacture quite a number of good tires. never tried on Nouvo b4. maxxis tires for Nouvo available locally?

 

not local. available across the causeway. will give it a go once my tyres due for replacement.

[Jixiang]

Can someone list down the tyres that are compatible with Nouvo?

[Jixiang]

If possible, also list down the accessories that we can change?

There are many LED replacement bulbs available for standard bulbs which Nouvo uses. But for signal LED bulbs, may need to change signal relay else the blink rate may be different.

OK. You mean they will blink very fast? I was thinking of changing all my bulbs to LEDs. It will then be brighter. Cause on the road at night, Bikes are smaller in size and hard to be notice.

[Jixiang]

One more thing is that can we change the thread name to [Portal][2010] SBF Yamaha Nouvo instead of [Portal][2009] SBF Yamaha Nouvo ?

for your headlight, i can recommend u the Stanley bulb. slightly expensive. but its bright, obvious & throw far.

brake light good to change to leds. cos the responsive is faster & when spoil, also won't spoil 1 shot.

signals, unless u can get the correct relay. if change signals to leds but relay not change, your signals will flash very fast.

Thanks a lot for your recommendation. Where can I get these bulbs? If I get, will the mechanic installed for me? Currently, how much does it costs? For Leds brake light and signal light, any recommendation where to get?

[Jixiang]

If u go JB via my friend's car, I was thinking if getting the spare Tyres and relevant parts from there and get the mechanic in Singapore to install on my bike. Bigcow: do you know how to install?

[-fazly-]

im using osram for headlight. its better then the stock one and it long lasting too. its stil working fine.

[altya]

Taking my TP tmr... if pass will be very interested to get this bike... loves it design at first sight...

 

Btw just to ask some question, how is the FC? Is the maintainance exp? Coz my dad told me auto bike maintainance is more exp than manual... Many things to change every few thousand km?

 

Also lastly roughly how much is the OTR price for it now? Thanks so much... North lander here too!

[Jixiang]

Hi,

 

Firstly, I wish you all the best for toml's TP. Where will you be tested?

 

The FC is 40km/L.

 

Just need to change Engine Oil, Gear Oil (Transmission Oil) every 3000 km.

 

OTR: I bought last year at $5250 with Insurance and payment via instalment for 2.5 yrs. Now one year liao.

i taking it at BBDC...

 

Only change EO and GO? Coz i was reading around den got wat belt, roller and stuff... i kinda noob in bike so don noe much abt them..

 

That time when u bought it, e COE was at wat price? Coz now COE very high, tinking of whether to buy now or wait longer or just buy second hand...

 

But overall how u rate this bike?

[Jixiang]

Belt is because we dun use the bicycle chain and Roller is needed for the belt to move.... There are quite cheap. I change at SPC only $100 inclusive of 5 rollers and belt. That one only 12000km onwards then change. Because that time I heard that there are sound coming from my belt.

[Jixiang]

Inititally, I tried to buy 2nd hand. But apparently there are very few people who are selling this bike.. There is an older version which is Nouvo S but it is only 115cc.

[Jixiang]

I bought the price when the COE was $900 and the bike's rating was good..

[altya]

icic, thanks alot Jixiang... Hope i pass tmr den i can be part of the Nouvo team soon =)

 

Anyway gd nitez to everyone!
