It mixes well if u adhere strictly to the maintenance schedule and use original parts.

 

That, in all honesty, I will not follow. How to ride a standard bike? For a start, tyres will be a different brand already... brake pads, rims, exhaust, chain, lightings, etc. Just my one cent lah~~~

[MUSHA]

It will never be as economical as compared to wave...

 

U're as good as saying Buell are reliable...

 

Now, how true is that... I keep wanting to change or buy another faster, bigger cc bike but my wallet says Wave is still cheaper to maintain.

[dragsterwish]

How much is a used one? Anywhere, you know, has got a unit?

 

Used one about 3 yr old going about $2.5k+/- Some Raider owners from this forum are selling theirs. I know GHC used to have one. Now don't know if they still have it.

[dragsterwish]

Isn't it 2-strokers are the easiest to maintain?

 

Nope! If it was, i would have bought the 125z instead of my Raider! Its confirmed by other 2-stroke owners too (e.g. NSR, KIPS). Due to the engine design, the internal of the 2-stroke(which uses petrol mixed with 2T lubricant to lubricate the parts) are usually worn out faster than 4-stroke parts. Thus, many 2-stroke bikes have to do regular internal overhaul, de-carbon....

 

All in all, the maintenance cost & effort of a 2-stroke bike is higher than 4-stroke. That's the price you pay for power! Frankly, you could just go for a bigger cc bike without the pollution and problem of 2T.

 

In summary, that's why more & more pple are switching to 4-stroke.

How do you rate the RXK and RXZ by comparison to the KR and NSR? It's easy to change pistons and rings and the cost is not expensive IMO.

U said fast and reliable dun mix.

Nothing was said about economical.

U got me wrong.

I didn't say use only OEM parts.

 

I said use original parts.

Example are like those from reputable manufacturers.

 

Give u example.

Racing Boy not chiong parts also.

They are an original company producing original Racing Boy parts.

 

But cannot compare their sport rims to that of Enkei right ?

Or their stainless steel brake hose to that of Hel or Spielger right ?

 

I dunno about smaller cc bikes though.

But for big bikes.....OEM brake pads are almost as good as aftermarket ones.

And sometimes cheaper too.

U got me wrong too. I was referring to standard/stock vs modded/performance parts. I just cannot ride a standard bike.... for long.

hey guys, just got a 2nd hand wave x, just one year old bike..

 

got a few questions to ask.. whats the average total mileage a wave can go?

the tank is only about 3litres.. and i can go a total of upto 120km before it dies off.. normal?

heh, sorry but havent been riding a 2b bike for some time..

 

and, ive changed coil, rectifier and battery 4 times.. but, i still have problems with ignition..

all this within a month..

everytime i dont start the bike over the weekend, come monday.. it wont work.. and i have to change everything again..

luckily, the shop changes everything for free.. if not i die liaoo..

 

what do you guys think is the problem?

i'm really getting frustrated.. and thinking of selling it off and buying the older wave models instead..

[cub70]

congrats on your wave,for me nw 3l can go 148km,cos of sport rims,rider weight,box,centre basket,mine
