Hi...where can i get a wide variety and design Sports rims for Wave ??I m looking for the 3 spoke type..

 

I guess B-Plus should have quite a fair range of rims.

[MUSHA]

wah can get 50-60 km/l

i only get 40+ mine all stock

i wanna stretch see how much i can squeeze out of one litre

and 60/100 70/90 the smallest tyres i can use?

 

i using 70/100 and 80/90 now i think...

 

and how much tyres costs ah?

 

Any thinner than 60 front, 70 rear is going to be scary during 90kmh straights or normal cornering...

Hi sprinta, after u install the pipe how much difference did you observe your FC before and u install the pipe?

 

 

 

will update soon on my fc-

 

i dont always take note by calculating-always by observing only-

 

[Sprinta03]

ups for wave .. any outing soon ???

Hi brothers what type of EO is best for Wave..it recommend the Honda 10 30w..but i wanted to use a better one so any recommendation...

[squarebox]

I'm using motul 300v 10w40(fully-syn) - $28

although many will say the cheap $10 type is good enough, i rather use something that exceed the recommendations

hahaha, my stand is use normal eo, semi syn, but change more often... reason why is becoz wave no oil filter + our bike doesnt get really hot...

 

so use too good oil no use also + waste $$$... use semi syn + change more regularly will keep ur engine healthy...

Hey... when u say change more often, what sort of mileage are u talking abt?

every 1k or 2 month change engine oil. semi-grade will do.

every 10k or 2 month change engine oil. semi-grade will do.

 

Do u mean 1,000km or 10,000km?

[squarebox]

Just tested setting for my carb all week.

now FC increase from 30km/l to 48km/l (gentle riding) 42km/l(hard riding)

[squarebox]

U set the carb setting yourself?

[MUSHA]

But raven77 said every 10k??!

 

I do it approx every 2500km for Mobil 1.

[squarebox]

Yup it did the setting myself.

1 week of trial and error because i dont ride much on weekdays.

[squarebox]

10k km per oil change?

wat EO ? high-temp liquid Teflon?

 

For ppl who dont know what is teflon, teflon is virtually indestructible and has one of the lowest coefficients of friction against any solid.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytetrafluoroethylene

 

I wonder why engineers dont use teflon coated engine-internals.(marketing scam to make more $$?)

Engines will be more efficient and longer lasting.

Possible to briefly describe how u do it?

Bcoz i really cannot believe my FC only about 37km/L - hard or soft riding.

I guess telfon-coated engines will not be cost-effective to the factory, ie, will make vehicles too expensive to be sold. Of coz, everyone wants the best but the best cost money.

turn you air/ fuel mixture screw & idling screw....

 

read up this is how.......

 

anyways, usually a mis-tuned or dirty carb makes the idle of our bike go crazy. If your a do-it-yourselfer, dismantling the carb and cleaning the jets, air ports, and choke lines would be best. Not to mention replacing the fuel filter if you have one in series with the fuel line. If you have cleaned the carb and installed it back to the bike, tuning is next. don't worry if you don't know the right position of the air-fuel screw w/c is next to the idle screw. Turn the air-fuel screw clockwise until it stops. Remember the position of the screw. Turn the idle screw clockwise a few turns until you see the throttle piston moves upward a bit. Then, start the bike. Turn the idle screw until the bike is running without stalling(higher than idle rpm. just like the bike is cruising about 40kph) . Now its time for the tuning. Turn the air-fuel screw counter-clockwise count your turns while listening to the sound of the engine. You will will hear the engine runs smoother and the the rpm starts getting higher also. Stop when you do not hear anymore significant change. Then turn the air-fuel screw clockwise a little about 1/8 turn then stop. Slowly turn the idle screw counter clockwise until you reach 1200 or 1400 rpm (well thats the standard value). Now, try revving the engine, if the engine looses power at the high rpm, turn the air-fuel screw 1/8 clockwise more. Do this step until the pooot-pooting stops. Try the bike and feel the power. If it feels the bike is back in shape. try using the bike for a few weeks. After a week, remove the spark plug and look at the tip. If the tip of your spark plug is kinda grayish or slightly redish(depends on the type of petrol you're using). You're setting is good to go. If the tip color is dark gray to black, the setting is to rich. turn the air-fuel screw counterclockwise about 1/8 turn, then test again. if no color change occurs well the engine should be checked and that's another story.

 

Hope this helps. More power!

I dont have the know-hows and tools to wash carb myself.

I will try to learn from the mechanic when i sent my carb to wash when i collect my leo vince.

My carb is 22,000 km(1yr 3mths) old currently...
