  1. Insurance renewal does not require inspection. However road tax renewal requires it. If road tax has expired, it is an offence to ride it, even with insurance. Get a tow truck to tow it to the inspection center. Nothing bad is going to happen even if you delay renewing road tax for 2 months, provided you do not ride the bike. Just pay the late fees when renewing road tax. However after 2.5 to 3 months, LTA will send you a letter to attend court. You have until 2 days before the court date to get the bike inspected and renew the road tax. Don't ask how I know.
  2. I often leave my bikes alone for months on end. No issues, as long as the battery is in good condition to start with, and the bike's electrical system is sound. A week or 2 is perfectly fine. Of course, I drain the carbs and pump up the tires. If leave for really really long, squirt about 10cc of engine oil into the spark plug hole, and disconnect the battery (don't need a quantum physics doctorate to do that!)
  3. No need to be so uptight about how the IU is wired. As long as it works and you pay ERP, no one will bother you. I have a few bikes, and this is how I mount them. Don't fall off your chair. 1. rubber-band/cable tie to somewhere on handlebar. Hooked onto a small 12V battery (also cable-tied to somewhere in the front of the bike) in full view. Wire cut down to size. 2. "Properly" mounted on nice bracket and wired nicely to battery terminals 3. mounted on a very flimsy aluminium strip. Lame and untidy attempt to secure it using electrical tape. Connector installed for easy removal. 4. Didn't bother to mount
  4. C'mon... your roof leaks because....?
  5. Am using a small bucket with some kind of lip to prevent mess. $2 at Daiso.
  6. Officially, it's illegal. Unofficially, as long as you can make it fit and it does not look totally out of place, no one will bother you. However do understand there are many aspects of consideration if you want to retro fit a tank from another bike. Things like mounting points, clearance beneath the tank, routing of hoses, as well as the angle of the tank on the bike are critical topics.
  7. Not all leaks are the same. Some look nasty, but is harmless though unsightly. Some look minor, but can cause major problems if left unattended. You need to provide much more information if anyone were to give any advice worth taking.
  8. Calm down. If the brake disk is loose, just tighten the bolts. No big deal. If not, check if the rear wheel is aligned. There should be alignment marks on both sides of the swingarm (beside the axel), or if anything is rubbing. If everything checks out and the brakes still squeak, it's probably just caused by brake dust. Not rocket science bro...
  9. Why do you need a 1.8L 6 cylinder goldwing? Why ride a 1000cc superbike that accelerates to 100km/h in 3 seconds? Why ride a hunk of metal that only makes "potato potato potato" noises? If all our choices are based on economic/practical/economic benefits, then we will alll be riding Honda Cubs and driving Toyota Corollas. C'mon... it's all about freedom of choice.

  11. Thanks for the tip. Do you by any chance know of someone who can help in the treatment?
  12. Well done for your first HM! My ITB problem started right at the 1km mark, and got progressively worse till the 18th km, where it was just unbearable... walked for about 100m, then started to slowly jog. Nearly died. The numerous sexy ladies in front of me did little to distract the pain. Hahah Anyway struggled to the finish line in 2hr 22 min. Think will lay off long running for a while and do shorter workouts instead.
  13. Not so bad already... I got the dreadful ITB syndrome... had to stop running for a while. No idea how long I can run before the problem re-occurs. Next Sunday die la...

  15. Anyone works in town and runs around Marina Bay area after work?
