Kawasaki KLX 150: BIAR LIGHTLY USED ADVENTURE

Replace the rear tire profile affairs, KLX 150 is more difficult. Therefore, the rear tire profile KLX 150 collided circuitry construction problems swing arm made of precision alias miser for the spelling. Want to change the wheel ring 17 'aja-think the thought. Not about the budget!. If a flat tire, roughly tire collision with the bridge not swing arm. Danger also, do not-for mending concentration mikirnya see the terrain ahead.
Now turn to Daniel Tangka of padepokannya region Gribig Ki Ageng, Malang for-for science. At the rear wheels KLX-150 kroser senior is wearing a black rubber ex KLX 250 brands Dunlop D 605 G profiles 100 / 100-18 "combined with Excel rims 250-18".

Modif fashion with the appearance of the legs by Daniel rightly so. Therefore, the greater its rear wheels, burst speed is more agile when used adventure, especially when the incline or fall. Here too there mengefesiensikan effect transfer engine power to the wheels, the engine power so easily dikail more wild.

Why must wear a ring 18 "with standard swing arm condition KLX-150? Turning to an inch, 2 inch difference when converted to centimeters is equal to 5 cm. So we need the spelling backwards axle KLX-150 as of 6 cm. "It is similar to the position of retractable axle stuck to the rear and additional 2 cm coakan backward," pointed out Daniel.

But the condition of the axle as it was not a pretty sight, because they say too mucuk Java. As a workaround, I add the same berpenampang plate with profile swing arm, then welded and finished by grinding. Extra length to the rear plate 3 cm. "And I'm doing this modif including safety, because it has been tested adventure in the hills Panderman, Stone," believes Daniel. pid

MORE GAS WITH SPONTANEOUS GESIT
Not appropriate if KLX-150 still left with the factory default gas holder. Not matching. For less agile, so it is special spirit minus engine (SE). Header from a fierce power so imperceptibly? "Create a new beginners Geber KLX-150, can replace the gas holder with the kind of cash that crowded gas retailed at speedshop," said Wahid mechanics mods home Aneka Jaya Motor in Rungkut Kidul Industry 10, Surabaya.

But, specifically the installation of cash KLX-150 gas No special tricks needed to be done. Given the difference in the end of the cable seling gas, it is associated with different types of carburetor. KLX-150 vacuum type carburetor wear and require naple at its end, being the usual retractable with a conventional carburetor type of gas cash. How does his trick? just follow the steps below Wahid;

Provide naple secondhand suits bars to hook into the carburetor accelerator lever KLX-150. Naple was grinding in accordance with the mounting holes on the accelerator lever. Then add the hole in the vertical direction in accordance with the size of the cable cross gas.

Note also the free length interspersed with cable wrapping. Therefore, the construction carburetor vacuum, alternating free length is more delayed and needed to free the spelling suits handsgrip. The trick exfoliate gas alternately wrapping cord 2.5 cm. Watch out, so that no defect alternating use grinding aid on the one hand to get a better result.

Having obtained the free length cable alternating gas in accordance with Orsi KLX-150, now for the spelling suits Make a gas. The material can wear speling former gas suits motorcycle. But there can be used directly, should be cut first part comes straight drat and fields. Sections were mounted on top, enlarging the hole first. To be more precise gas cable holder and does not affect the spelling suits free handgrip. | pid

FIND THE ANGLE REAR BRAKE MASTER THE MOST RESPONSIFMaster brake always been the target changed when ciet rear disc models. The holder is always proportional to the setup mempernyaman foothold on the brake pedal. But the master brake is still dikangkangi Nissin products. It was on the market of its kind, ranging ori, KW1, KW2, KW ... etc. But now becoming popular, if affairs Nissin master modifmania always buy ex-owned mopang that bercakram behind. As has CS-1, Shogun 125 SP, New Tiger and Tiara 120.

Back to the matter of setting the corner of the master, if we follow the construction of the installation of each master on his motorcycle wearing, average lot who apply an upright position with a tolerance of a slope on either side of 50 degrees.

"When dissected further, master angle angular position as it is more stable and safer for braking," explained Ayung of Rayya Perkasa Motor modif home, at Jl. Kalibutuh 131, Surabaya. He added that, because oil stocks in the brake master brake tube is more stand by and not flowing occupy the void space in the tube. "And as the caliper operating the hydraulic power source, can not get to experience the emptiness of brake fluid," he remembers.

And not surprisingly, the position of the rear brake master a more horizontal, his response was at all times and must need to pump its first 2 to 3 times as needed. "Sure it was not felt directly by consumers, given the tradition of braking we have always done repeatedly pedal when stopping the motor speed," believes the man who earned the S2 in Ausiesource

true new KLX 150 immediately ready to be invited offroad adventure

PT. Kawasaki Motor Indonesia (KMI) on June 5 yesterday again presents the latest variant, KLX 150 KLX 150 Offroad with a claim that has been perfected. This new model is believed to KMI is ready to be invited to scratch the ground because there are some changes that support for the change. But is it really?

Now let us examine this type of alteration according to unofficial information of KMI. The New KLX has great torque is 12 N.m / 6500 rpm. An increase of about 0.7 N.m than the previous type. This power is needed when off-road because it will make more sip bulldoze obstacles.

Extra effort is also supported by changes in the final reduction ratio is also greater than ever before. KLX Offroad use 57/13 or 4385. The suspension is also fully adjustable so as to create a better performance on the track offroad.

The most cool thing is the weight which is now much more easily. Because using a wheel and swingarm are made from aluminum, the weight of the motor is now only 99 kg. Plus because the muffler and tank are made using lighter materials. Wah weight lightly like this is really necessary when offroad.

Offroadnya character is also supported by road clearance higher than ever before, which is 315 mm making it easier when facing rough terrain. Seat height 860 mm high which makes it easier to set foot on the ground. Motor is also equipped with a back step and brake pad made of sintered metal on the front and rear, thus further supporting the rider off-road capability.

So if all the changes it is enough to be invited to adventure? If you simply play the off-road circuit in a short time may be ok. But if invited to a day of adventure with a rather heavy terrain it is somewhat doubtful. "Since the first KLX 150's weakness in the clutch, weak and rapid wear if invited adventure. No need 1 day, 4 hours definitely broken. Moreover, if the rider likes to play a half-clutch, "kara Rudi from the garage 234 Motor. Well clutch problems have no info changes so we think, is still the same as the previous KLX 150. This workshop is known as one of the source changes adventure and a lot of community ngumpulnya offroad.

But do not worry there is a solution really. The legs are drilled home a little clutch so that the oil circulation better and the effect can make the clutch to be more durable. Once this is done then the motor is priced OTR Rp 35.9 million, - for the area Jabodetabekser really ready deh invited offroad air all day.source

TEST FUEL CONSUMPTION KAWASAKI KLX 150L, ACHIEVE 38.58 KM / LITER!

Within a few days I tried to do a test on fuel consumption 'The Grasshopper Tempur' Kawasaki KLX 150L I have. How is the result?

The Grasshopper Combat is still in standard conditions and only five months. Purchase this bike is done at the end of April 2014 ago. In a fuel consumption test I am using full method to the full with fuel Pertamax or RON 92. Riders are myself weighing 60 kilograms with a height of 180 centimeters.

First, the fuel tank I filled with PERTAMAX until full. Do not forget to record the numbers listed in the current oddometer (5083.4 kilometers). Then, Si Grasshopper Tempur used for everyday activities with a driving style that is very normal in the city of Surabaya, both day and night. Sometimes choked jammed with a speed of 30-40 km / h, sometimes can be lauched at speeds up to 80 kilometers / hour if road conditions allow. After a few days of use, the fuel tank is filled full back at the pump for similar Pertamax 2.55 liter, while the numbers listed in oddometer in fueling this second is 5181.8 kilometers.

Well, now we can calculate how much the fuel consumption is KLX 150L. The calculation method is reduced by the last digit oddometer oddometer figures on petrol before filling. Then the result is divided by the amount of fuel that is loaded last.

Mileage = 5181.8 kilometers - 5083.4 kilometers = 98.4 kilometers
Fuel consumption = 98.4 kilometer / 2.55 liter = 38.58 kilometer / liter
From the calculations it is seen that the fuel consumption Kawasaki KLX 150L is 38.58 kilometers / liter. That is, with a fuel tank capacity of 7 liters, Kawasaki KLX 150L can travel as far as 270.06 kilometer for one refueling.

Nonetheless, the result is not absolute and it may be different from the others Kawasaki KLX 150L. The difference can be influenced by various factors, such as the condition of the engine, tire pressure, weight of the rider, driving character, road conditions, type of fuel, and many other factors. Well, according to the uncle and aunt, the result was already quite economical or not to 150cc motorcycles still use carburetors these?source

WHY CHOOSE KAWASAKI KLX 150L?

Motor has become a daily necessity for most people. Two-wheeled vehicles has become an alternative for simple and fuel efficient, and easy enough to penetrate the urban congestion that has been getting worse. So why did I decide to choose Kawasaki KLX 150L?


Previously I had had a motorcycle, either duck or pure motor sport. By looking at the needs and comfort aspects, I also consider seeking dual-purpose bike. In Indonesia, not many manufacturers who provide this type of motor. One manufacturer that provides is Kawasaki, who was only issued a Kawasaki KLX 150S models. Unfortunately KLX 150S-sized fairly small when compared to my body that has a height 178 cm. After a long wait, finally released the Kawasaki KLX 150L with a larger size than the KLX 150S.

In the specification, KLX 150L is very similar to its predecessor, KLX 150S, such as 4-stroke engine Soch with a power of 8.6 kW / 8,000 rpm and a torque of 12 Nm / 6500 rpm. Significant differences between the KLX 150L with KLX 150S is only found on the wheel. If KLX 150S uses rear wheel ring 16 and rear ring 19, the KLX 150L measuring taller with rear-wheel-sized ring 18 and the front wheel ring 21. To compensate for the larger wheel size, front shock also higher and slightly longer swing arm , Moreover, the only difference is in the form of exhaust and striping livery only.

The purpose of buying a motor KLX 150L is actually only for daily operations and occasional vehicles used for touring, both at close range, medium range, and long distance. For the moment I am not interested in using KLX 150L for blusukan or enduro in the woods.

My first impression as I climbed the motor at a price of Rp 26.5 million (OTR Jogja) is high !! Even my legs are not perfect stride, but helped by the shock of the 'sinkhole' when ridden. From the engine side and the actual performance there is nothing quite special about this bike. With only 150 cc engine and dual-purpose motorcycles manifold, the engine is responsive at lower rounds with a very soft voice, very nice for dark-skid onto a busy street. But note also that this bike handlebar wide enough, so it needs a little adjustment if previously using pure sport bike. As an entry level dual-purpose motorcycle, do not expect much with a top speed because basically this bike is not for fighting speeding. The maximum speed of 100-110 kilometers per hour has also been good. Anyway for speeding affair do not expect more. Want speeding mending find another motor.

By using a dual-purpose motorcycles such as this, stop and go on the streets of the crowded city still quite tasty. It will not be afraid nerjang flood. Through the damaged roads or land is also still quite tasty. In addition, since the circulation of the Kawasaki KLX 150 in the city in general is still quite rare, especially KLX 150L size taller, do not be surprised if the time at red lights or parking the motor is often the center of attention.source

COPING WITH KAWASAKI KLX 150L ROLLER CHAIN THAT EASILY BROKEN

For users of the Kawasaki KLX 150L must have had experience with the front roller chains that are easily damaged. In fact, based on my experience, roller chains have been destroyed within two weeks of taking the motor. Why can happen so?


This damage occurred because of a roller chain on a Kawasaki KLX 150L does not rotate, so that the rubber roller eroded by chains. As a result, the chain directly touch the iron causing uncomfortable noise while the motor is running.

Well apesnya, Kawasaki Motor Indonesia (KMI) as the sole agent (ATPM) Kawasaki motorcycles in Indonesia has not provide spare parts of this chain roller. I've been looking at various authorized Kawasaki dealer in Surabaya, Yogyakarta, Jakarta and Lampung, everything is nil. Kawasaki mechanics also admitted that this problem occurs on many motorcycles and spare parts KLX 150L is indeed not been available until now. Though the price of roller chain that was nothing, only $ 3,000, but it's been quite a headache.

Instead, I am looking for a roller chain in variety stores and get the Scott brand. Unfortunately, roller chains Scott brand is expensive, ie USD 80,000. Size roller chain even this variation is larger than the standard size. The use of this roller on a Kawasaki KLX 150L belonging sayapun not survive for long because apart when touring.

For the time being I outsmart the use of rubber roller with a kick starter (crank) Honda Astrea Grand or Honda Supra for Rp 5,000. The installation is fairly easy, just crank the rubber piece to taste, then loaded onto a long bolt that sustain the chain. Indeed rubber this crank can not rotate like a roller, but it was enough to help deaden the sound of friction between the chain and iron. Moreover, rubber is also more powerful crank is not easily eroded by the chain when compared to the original rubber roller congenital KLX 150L.source

Kawasaki KLR250 (1984-2005)

The long history of Kawasaki KLX250 actually stems from Kawasaki KLR250 that have been launched by Kawasaki since 1984.
