Tip of the Day

Who’s behind me?

Keep checking those mirrors for traffic and situation behind you. The RVM’s give a good field of view for vehicles following some distance behind. For those closer, you need to turn your head and use your peripheral vision.

    Indonesian make(sprockets and chain) cost around ~2500 and ROLON costs around 1400. ROLON one came as localized parts like brake pads etc made way. Gold chain and sprocket are of Daytona make, if I remember correctly and cost more than 5K for the set.

    hows the performance of the indonesian chain and how can you procure locally man ? Was thinking to go for daytona as next change but the indonesan looks worth to check out.

    Guys, I know this could be discussed earlier, but searching in mobile is very difficult.
    My doubt is, which all tyres available here can be directly fit to the R15 without modifying the swing-arm? I mean, size more than the stock 100/80/17.

    5. Coolant flush out and new coolant IN ( is it necessary? Highly recommend to get new coolant after cleaning the reservoir and radiator cleaned. Cleaning is a tedious process though.(Flush old coolant from reservoir,radiator and bore, fill 50:50 mixture of white vinegar and distilled water, start and let the bike idle, flush this mixture and fill distilled water, start and let the bike idle and flush it. Fill fresh Motocool and you are good to go for another two years.)
    9. Sensor clean. Any specific sensor. Different sensors need different cleaning techniques.
    Thanks Juris.

    With Gold Chain already with me I will go for it. Just waiting for rainy season to get over though my current chain is running on last setting so lets see how much can i pull on it.

    MyBad that I wrote sensor - dont even want to get them touched. I was think to get my FI cleaned up.

    max size without affecting handling and stability is 120/80 x 17...and the zapper vyde is an excellent fit...a perfect fit and looks awesum too... 130/70 will make the tire profile all wrong...
