Petrol Problem

Today i want to share recent problem which i faced when goes for Gujranwala from Lahore. When i was on the way back my bike start missing on low speed. Many times engine goes off and i have to start it. There were many thoughts in my mind, which i will share with you

1) Bike was standing outside home in heavy rain, i thought water goes in carb and that is the cause.
2) Engine oil was needed to be changes.
3) I never goes to mechanic for tuning but that time i thought may be bike need some tuning.
4) I feel throttle cable hard enough.

Very next weekend i washed my bike, give lubricant to throttle cables, check and release petrol from carb, wash air filter and bring my bike on the road for try. Unfortunately problem was the same and i was worried about engine performance.

Later a thought came in my mind that some time when we pull choke bike starts but for longer period it is not recommended. Choke increases the petrol quantity and help to start bike in cold.

I check choke lever and found that i was pulled somehow. Bring it back to its original position and try it again on road. Problem was just resolved. Now my bike is running fine and i am not worried.

Over hauling at 5000 km

Following activity was performed, when speedo meter touches 5000 km milestone.

I have taken snapshots for each step to demonstrate other friends. I hope you will get courage to overhaul your bikes.





Unscrew nut bolt to separate seat from bike, see rust here.











Before separating fuel tank stop fuel supply, separate fuel pipe and remove side tapas.





Get idea to save side tapas, use tie wire.





Use greese at battery to save it from rust


Use hot wire to make hole to insert wire lock


be careful with fuel tank and place it away from fire and childern.

Engine Oil (Be aware)

Yesterday when i go to mechanic at Suzuki service center, mechanic suggest me to change oil filter as well. I was ok with his advice. He also asked to get 1400ml engine oil as more oil is required with oil filter change. That is where he was wrong. We need to have 1200ml engine oil to change. There is a simple tip to remember that you need as much as that engine oil gauge not show more than higher level. It is also advised by owner manual.

Some important points to consider

Following are some points you must consider after buying a new bike.

1) Bring your own petrol, minimum of 1.5 litre for initial start. You may go to some petrol pump with this quantity.

2) Charge battery at showroom for at least 30 minutes. Showroom guys charge battery for only 5 to 10 minutes. You will need to charge it after some time.

3) Check engine oil gauge, battery, and engine voice once start your bike. In first try check front and rear brakes as well.

4) Check all lights and indicators.

5) Buy minimum of three duster cloths, if possible, bring them with you as showroom guys use dirty cloth for cleaning bike. That put some scratches on body.

6) Don't forget to buy Helmet for you security.

7) Buy some good wax for paint and chrome, "revive all" is good option for seat cover and tyres.

8) Don't wash you bike too early, instead of washing clean it on daily basis with just wet cloth.

9) Run your bike at 40 to 45 km/h till first tunning(1000 km).

10) Change engine oil after first 500 km.

11) Clean air filter as well at the same time.

12) Clean bike chain after 300 to 500, use old tooth brush to remove dust from chain.

13) Don't trust mechanics, they are not trustworthy. Always get maintenance work in front of your eyes.

14) To safe you mud gaurds from rust, remove them from your bike and fill silicon paste in side spaces and paste silver tape(available at refrigeration shops) underneath. Don't use so called compound from market. Compound makes mud gaurds rough, ugly looking and black.

15) Always cover your bike at parking/home with parachute cover. It prevents your bike from dust and rain.
