Hi, pressure is 200 200.

If you can read RES, thats not reserve.

Fc varies from 17km onwards. I typically get 22.5. Of the late, 27.5 (: 9+ to reserve. 12L tank.

Cheers.

 

Where do you reside anyway?

Oh... i put in 210 front and 230 rear, like my previous GTS200. because backside heavy.

hmm my RES is up.. so i guess im in tat mode. but wats the difference? if i set RES is use from reserve tank? or i got to use finish normal tank then switch to reserve tank?

 

today i jus pump. so i will see how much my FC is... hmmm i ran 120.... at first i thought it should run comfortable but... its seems the wind resistance is making it hard. LOL

 

i stay in the central.. work in the west.

I prefer lower pressure. Grip is better.

Nah. the reserve is there just as a warning if its at off.

Its a 32bhp bike fyi in comparison to S4 52bhp.

Check out my previous post, i posted a vlx 600 manual. Its similar (:

I've been surviving with a toolbag just to keep my bike cover and my bike somewhat dry(i stay by the coast)

If you really need it, saddles.

But then again, ive seen harleys with rear boxes.

Using a 40tooth rear sprocket will change the gear ratio resulting in a higher top speed for all 4 gears. However, i was told by rosli that it will also make the bike "heavier", bit that affects only the 400cc. U can try for lesser than the stock 44tooths say 42 or 41 maybe if ur ride is 400.

 

Read that a 40 will result in a smoother ride for a vlx600. Yet to try still looking for the sprocket locally as exp to buy online.

Head fuel consumption woes when playing with gear ratio but i dont know the specifics. thanks for letting me know stock is 44tooth.

Anyway, have pmed you first motors number.

Hahaha I totally share your sentiments. But if I dun put box, I really dunno how to lug all my stuff around (ahem you know.. ladies carry a lot of stuff)..

 

After putting the box, I realized that it might look less "sportish" or more unsightly, but it makes the bike looks bigger IMO

 

So I heck.. just put lor:

Ive learned that blue led for meter, no matter how bright, will appear dim on your meter console. Best is to get a simple white led.
