New imported NSR owner, wat petrol does it take, lol

[N aughty S tinkin R at]

Ok I have just brought a imported NSR . It is the black colour 2001 model. How ever I don’t know what type of petrol it takes. LoL. I have never had a motorcycle before and the instruction book is in German and French.

Also my engine cuts out very easily, I have been on it for 3 days. What’s up with it. I am a complete novice. I could not even open the seat with out cutting my hand. So How long should I leave my choke on for,

I’ve been keeping my bike in my kitchen does that effect the performance of it at all. Even when it is in neutral it cuts out. The engine note on the 4 stroke Suzuki bike that I did my test on sounded sweeter. So is there a problem with the engine or do NSR need to be revved like mad before they conk out.

Thx ppl

I paid £3000 for a Brand New Import is this a good price or was I knocked. I wanted a Cagiva Mito but I was told they brake apart Thx again.

Well mine takes unleaded but urs MIGHT be different how have you been on it for 3 days if you dont know what petrol to use????? Use the choke if the bikes cold or sounds like it needs it ie splutterin! Cant you call you dealer? Ive seen imports for 2600

I ordered the bike and went on holiday, when i got home it was in my kitchen. Ive used it to go to work and back and thats about it. Thx for that m8ty , i will contact my dealer on Monday. Ive only done 80miles , u see they gave me a full tank, road tax, i choose my reg plate, VDK u know for vodka my fav drink, they also gave me some locks and a helmet. i mean is that ok for £3000, and how often should i top up the two stroke oil.

[Wingchunal]

What about at the top of the tank does it have a sticker saying unleaded recomened??????? 2 stroke oil when getting low, just dont let it run out or fucky fucky
anyway need sleep

Hi

It is probably OK on normal unleaded (like, 99% probably). With the 2 stroke oil just dont let it run out.

For the cutting out it probably needs the idle speed raising a touch. However, it might also be OK once you have done a few more miles and it has loosened up a bit

All the best

most nsr imports should run on unleaded.i bought mine 2 months ago and paid 3200.cheapest i could find anyway.most places where i live wanted 3500.it may need some adjustin to stop it cuttin out and try to get a manual and a manufacturers hand book.it will give u more of an idea about the nsr.never let that 2stroke oil run out,if u do u will know about it.

NSR sorry to say uve just made a big mistake but ull live with it!, *IMPORTED NSR*, didnt u read any of the post warning ppl not to buy them, any way i hope u no top speed is only 85mph and it takes long to get there!!!


...Unleaded petrol goes in all nsrs...

...you need to adjust ur idle revs, remove airbox and there is an adjusting screw (adjust it to 1500 revs)... it doesnt have enough revs to keep the engine ticking over and stalls so it needs to be higher...

...use choke for a few seconds when the engine is cold...

...keeping in the kitchen is no different than keeping it in garage... you may find that some of ur food goes missing!!

...always warm up the engine before redlining and ragging it...

...remember to run it in properly, u DONT want it to go bang...

...(not taking the piss) because ur a novice, get ur bike serviced accordingly and get a macanic to adjust ur chain and lube it every few hundred miles...

anyway welcome and have fun, im sure in a few months ull get to know ur bike and learn new things any questions dont hesitate to ask...


SAFE RIDING

You don't have to remove the airbox to change the idle speed. Remove the small section of fairing on the r/h side of the bike and you can see it on the carb from there.

nothing wrong with imports, mines an import and gets to 85 easily enough, takes a bit off effort to get to 95 though.

great little bike and to be honest who cares about 10 more mph??
