So Charge u mean after instaling Nob1 SSS we hv to tune the carb?? But how??? Btw samba bro my fren wan to change CDi liao, is it great??? I m interested also.

Can somebody tell me detail about CDi..like the type..advantage n dis..is it can damage engine in long term?..is anything else we must mod if mod racing CDi..cos i just want my LC get to top at highway..not to race..n dont want to get caught cos modified..is i can disuse racing CDi n change to standed Cdi back?..and more..can somebody tell me alll...

pleasee..

If not mistaken CDi will gv u better accelaration n a little bit at top speed and cut down fuel consumption ^^. And yes u can replace back ur stock CDi when u wan sell ur bike... Tats all i noe, for the tuning part u hv to ask other guys liao.. Hope tis will help u..

..here check this website probably he can clear your doubt..

thx a lot bizzy n scoffer..i will check now..

that top speed cut is a crap thingy. just now had tested my bike, can go 140km/h at 3/4 throttle. before this full throttle is hard to pass 130km/h.
pick up also good, accelerating from gear 3 felt like gear 2 only

honestly, I really love the classic 'pom pom' sound,
but after a while you'll realised that it sound much like a stock EX5

bought the exhaust from my friend, costs me rm130
but I felt that it's worth my money buying the pipe

yeah, my foreman said that too. stock main jet just can't cope up with the pipe capability to channel out the air,
so he recommends me to change main jet and pilot jet, or the best is to use aftermarket bigger carb.

Not necessary. The first thing we should do is remove the air filter first. Main jet has nothing to do with the capability to channel out the air
Changing the mainjet alone will make our bike sluggish, bcoz the air-fuel mixture is changed. It is impossible to find pilot jet for stock carb, only is mainjet available.

Besides this, try not to use 28mm carb. According to some technical book, 125cc - 150cc engine should use the max of 26mm carb. Anything larger than 26mm will lose engine response when we pull the throttle too fast. It will have a momentary 'blurp', causing the engine to go super lean, and then a 'bang' sound. That bang sound will wear the engine pretty badly. I am pretty sad with 28mm carb now. From low to mid rpm only can half throttle, after 5000rpm only can go full.


hahaha, yeah. I love the classic sound from the pipe and its great accel. It is good for daily ride bcoz all rpm oso increase power. Most pipe only increase the top rpm but sacrifice mid-low. Good for top speed, but bad for daily ride.

Are_keem ....if u finding LC135 main jet and pilot jet...welcome to my shop haha....i have all the size u wan....hm...how is the OSAKI spocket??

i am still wondering how to get that pipe from mainland

noob question but do u think it'll make any diff i change the air filter to a better one like K&N

the SSS is out of stock....just checking with NOB1 salesman today....whole malaysia also don't have stock now....early of march only avaiable the SSS exhaust.....

may i ask some question??? wat is the price SSS exhaust in the penang?

Dude, i bought it at RM220.

Added on February 22, 2009, 11:26 pmyeah, sure got difference. air filter-less is still the best, zero cost and best performance.
i've taken out my whole block and piston for inspection yesterday. The engine is still in good condition after 12,000km of ride without air filter. The valve is gone first, lol.

Wa if take off air filter will it makes our enjine dirty?? I dun wan mod on the LC im using now, my mum sure kill me, but CDi maybe ^^ cuz it is hidden but exhaust sure kena lol..

of course it does.
check out this website. they also manufactured air filter for lc135, FZ150i and Ninja250..

http://www.jfcfilters.com/

price rm84 + postage from indonesia rm40 = rm124

what happened to ur valve?? change to better one??

correct me if wrong but I heard sumwhere that K&N original air filter would costs you more than RM300

wow...so nice price?? i selling at counter RM180 only -.-" RM220 big earn lo brother

hallo all im new here!haha....my lc is hand clutch!
i from penang too!
i wan to ask where can brought the NOB1 sss pipe in penang!
can i goint u all in tt?

Hey everyone.....I'm new here...my name is Calvin~nice to meet u guys.....Spayz, smaba18....know who i m?

so many new members...welcome all..

Not really. As I mentioned, the engine is still nice after 12,000km on odo without air filter.

TK Racing valve, stiffer one. I also ported my cylinder head for smoother airflow into the valve. The engine is very smooth now, after hard throttle and suddenly let go the throttle, won't feel a sudden 'pull', the bike js slow down smoothly (even with 2nd gear).

I just got my bike back at 8.15pm today. Last Wednesday 11.30am until today, omg...


Yeap, super expensive.


Yea, they earned a lot. Sepang is cheaper, RM140 - RM150 first hand. Another brand called ABM exhaust, low end slightly lose to NOB1 SSS, but high rpm win slightly, selling at RM110.

Added on February 24, 2009, 12:33 amShort Carburetor Review

The most important task for a carburetor is the get the correct air/fuel mixture into the intake manifold --> intake valve --> combustion chamber.

How to know a carburetor is good? A good carb can channel the air/fuel mixture very quickly into the intake manifold. A bad carb will channel the mixture slower.

How to distinguish if a carburetor is good?

Look at the intake mouth (the one connected to airbox).

It should look like a funnel, where the outer mouth is bigger than the inner diameter. The transition from outer mouth to the inner diameter must be smooth like a funnel.

If a carb has an edge, such as the outer mouth is big, and then suddenly changed small (without a smooth transition), that carb performance will decrease, because the air flow will be disturbed by a sudden step. This will cause engine response become slow when we open up the throttle.

For 28mm series carburetor, the common one are Mikuni, Keihin and Uma Racing. Only Keihin has smooth mouth, they called it Hyper Jet / Power Jet.

In order to ensure the theory I read from book is correct, I tried 3 of them. Keihin is really performing the best, it has smoother engine response and better high rpm power.

Both Uma Racing and Mikuni is a bit sluggish when revving up to max.

Stock Mikuni does not have a step (big outer mouth to smaller inner diameter), so it is smoother than many of the 28mm racing carb (except Keihin). The response is better than Keihin 28mm because of its small diameter (remember Bernoulli Theorem? Smaller hole allows gas to flow faster). Besides, it also has accelerator pump which supplies petrol in an instance when we full throttle.

The best carb that I found is Yoshimura 26mm carb with TPS and accelerator pump. The jet needle has holes that allow fuel to flow through it. This helps to atomize the fuel into smaller molecule and hence provide much better response. This mechanism is as good as direct fuel injection. Yoshimura carb design is based on Keihin series carburetor with PowerJet. It costs around RM1000, very expensive.

So, for ppl with tight budget, Keihin PowerJet is the best 28mm carb that I can find in market now. If you got some extra $, go for 26mm Yoshimura MJN carb, hehehe. Why 26mm? Because 28mm is sluggish due to big diameter, which is too much for 135cc engine. 26mm is the best match. Please note that, 135cc Nouva LC is using 26mm BS carb and it also has very smooth throttling.

That's all for this round, hope I can help those who plan to mod carburetor with my 2 cents here.
