Hi all,

Is there anyone here with a nsr150sp from sydney?

Where do you recommend to get bike serviced. I purchased it with 8200k's it's now got 9200km's.

Any idea how much it would cost to get tyga system shipped and fitted?

thanks heaps

Hi Alesi

Fitting the pipe is an easy DIY job. Just order direct from Tyga if you want one. My wife fitted hers and she has zero bike spannering experience. Similarly most service jobs are absolutely straightforwrd on a single cylinder stroker - at less than 10,000k's it's not going to need much doing in any case, unless it's had a very hard life - maybe replace the gearbox oil and spark plug and clean the airfilter etc. These are all jobs that you can easily do at home. This will save you a heap of money and you will learn a bit about your bike too. It's a win-win deal.

Go-on get stuck in. Much more rewarding than taking it to a garage.

Cheers

Thanks wb,

you have inspired me to be more hands on. I have enrolled into a couse at my local tech. The course is called Motor Cycle Maintenance. i am a total novice and hopefully this will help.

I love riding my nsr150. I have been on my l's for 2 months now.

Once you have mastered the basics, you'll never want to trust the bike to a shop/gargae again. No-one is ever going to take as much care over your bike than you will, Alesi. Why pay someone else to do a less thorough job than you can do yourself for free? There's so much more satisfaction from riding a bike you've worked on yourself. And if it does ever let you down, you are much less likely to be stranded too as you have a fighting chance of getting it going again at the side of the road. Like I said, a win-win situation

Enjoy

hey alesi

im an nsr150 owner... in sydney... its been two years now... (since your discussion with 'wb' on doing a self rebuild). was wondering if you have completed it yet, and if that maintenance course you did was any help. have you got any pointers for someone who is about to open up his 02 nsr 150??


cheers mate,

make sure you have someone there that knows what you're doing...the concepts atleast, that way he can steer you the correct way

do some basic prep and atleast have some tools to work on the bike.

Buy all the consumables before you start pulling the bike apart

A rear stand helps a lot, but is not required.
