Those suzuki raider, modded lc etc. haha

yea, crosswind do affect very much on steering. Now dismantle the windshield and simpan. Building neck strength to fight the wind  flex.gif
Mine does not, even later version does nt have it either. It was added by previous owner, and attached to handlebar.

tunduk/angle downwards, mata almost juling alam sebalik mata. haha rolleyes.gif

yeah, my guess was the windshield was attached to handlebar to explain the differences, I reckon is a big windscreen, too
get a bracket, and look for a way to install it to the chassis instead

Actually I would just bolt on the fairings/front end from an er6F
Or just buy a 6F

I nearly bought one. Was a week late and missed a deal a few years ago.

removed windshield and notice that, at 150+, steering feel lighter. Without windshield, had to use full face all the time.

I wonder how those ride with open face at high speed, on moped.

Sometimes a windshield causes other issues if you have not installed it or set the height correctly. A windshield can introduce a lot of buffeting and noise.

Most helmets are designed with clean air flow in mind. Not all windshields work correctly depending on the bike, or how you sit on the bike.


Just get a good helmet (from one of the manufacturers that have wind tunnel tested it) and ride it in clean airflow. The difference is significant. I have owned helmets that are completely unusable past 120. While my HJC stays stable at 200 and relatively "quiet".

front brake locked/jammed with stiffed lever, bleed air on right side caliper. Syukur solve the issue and continue ride.

Next morning send in for check. Master pump kaput, replace with rcb. "tambah skit" replace old hose with braided and route 2 loop, each for respective caliper.

2010 er6n

Need to adjust %squeezing the lever. Learning trail braking again. Compare with the stock one, two finger is enough for progressive and emergency.

Hose brand Kobura

stopie = rear tyre in the air

this mod still wallet friendly flex.gif

MC?

Brake feel after change the masterpump, less effort to lock the front. Previously I use 2 then 3 finger for emergency brake. Now 2 finger can brake hard and definitely feel nicer.

So my lil RC200 needed new clutch.
11 months old & 16,xxxKM

Either I'm bad with the clutch, riding too agreesive or something is wrong.
Oil was @ 14xxKM and is dark. Usually around 3-4k KM mark then is dark.
Then there was the ocassional slip in 4th.

Change both friction and intermediate plate.
tobaki kevlar friction plate & bajaj intermediate plate.

Old clutch pack was worn unevenly like is being pressed on one side only.

new bike not under warranty? Especially if its worn unevenly.

My clutch on the dominar lasted 65k km. I'm aware that the 390 clutch and 200 clutch is slightly different, but 16k is unusually premature.
