DO NOT use synthetic oil when running in otherwise the new metal parts will not bed in properly as the oil additives protect the rough metal bits from being smoothed out during running in!!!!!!!

Ride safely and enjoy your bike

er.. got a more technical question. even if you don't turn the fuel petcock to "off", nothing wrong right? i mean, there's no way the petrol in the flat-bowl can find its way to the cylinder and flood it, if there's no air-flow, right?

Yesh, totally agree.... so the best is off the main switch and the fuel knob close too.

But dun forget to on it back, ya?

Warning to people who always use the emergency stop button to stop your engine instead of turning the key off..

this way of turning off will 'xiong' your engine and vavle more.. because as it stated, it's a emergency stop.. therefore power will be cut of ~adruptely~ <dunno how to spell lah.. correct me ok??

SO dun use the emergency stop button again.. use it in case of emergency only..

there is an article i read somewhere on net.. i'll try to find it and post the url here..

P/S:- there is only one bike that cant be turn off by the key knob.. so die die must use emergency stop button.. you should know..

NSR250.. Smile

i'll be joining the ice-cream club in near future.. Very Happy

1.what grade of petrol should i use?92/98??
use better ones like shell v power in jb
can??<<--- i use V power... JB one... also can la... same la...

2.2t must use full syn one right?what brand is best for running in?<<--- 2T is up to ur own pref. i uSe esso gold... alot ppl use castrol TTS

3.during run in,the rpm must be <5 and speed 80km/hr..true? <<--- erm... wat my bike shop told me is first 1000click <5rpm 1000-2500 <7rpm 2500-4500 <8... but VspecR34 told me mantain <5rpm for at least 3000click... so think better to mantain... wait dio piston jam like me... *sigh* Sad

4.can i use the IRC tire for the time being...from earier post ppl say it is very slippery but during run in cant run fast anyway...me dont want to waste the new tire what is your comment?<<--- irc i use for abt 2 mths... i find it ok loh... rain got grip... but i filter lane tyre skid... i hit the kerb and buang... kena minus 6 pt fine 200 bucks and knee 1 hole.. wat u think? HaHaha

5.during first svc at 1000km...what kind of 4t is best?spark plug lei?<<--- 4T my motor shop use mobil i think... spark plug dun change so fast one la... 1000click only.

6.when u all "off" your sp,do u turn off the fuel knob and the "eng stop" switch?is it necessary to do that?<<--- frm wat i heard the fuel knob turn off better for old bikes loh... new bikes no worries... and off engine use the engine stop better... use key, heard it will sort the circuit or do some damage..

wEll thats my 2 cents... can take the advice can leave it also... *chEErz*
