Gilera Fuoco 500 - 2009 /2010

[MS]

Any fuocos here interested in a tailgate catcher?

I mounted up a camera at the back of the bike. Very prominent and it somehow deters tailgaters. For those habitual or less observant drivers to know there's a camera right in front, the number plate is captured clearly on the video. Recognisable by up to 8GB SD card which is separately purchased, 64MB built in RAM, Comes with bracket to mount to the rear crashbar of the Fuoco. Alternative strap and velcro mounts and brackets included. $100/each set. Batteries and SD memory card not included. Anybody else interested? Very fun to see who's the tailgaters. So those who rear end you cannot accuse you of weaving through traffic if you didn't. You can use the camera for front mount but I am thinking of how to make a bracket for the front mount.

I'm getting impatient on the OEM box. Not arrive till now.

 

Any chance you can post some pics of how your base plate is fitted to your Fuoco tail?

I am planning to get my own box - just that I do not know what kind of fixtures to use.

+60340451800. Givi Malaysia, Jln Ipoh. Give a call, ask for Maggie. Friendly prompt service and reasonable prices. Last I heard they do have it in stock as there were about 30 Fuocos and MP3s sold here.

 

Cheers

It would be interesting to see the product - not so much of catching tail-gaters, but more for recording rides. Perhaps you can show us when we meet-up... erh... speaking of meet-up, pai-seh that I've not start it as I'm busy with OT each day. Difficult to find time unless it is after 9PM.

Congrats, Gees...

 

Givi does have shield for approx S$250 (in Sgp or KL).

 

I'm going for ErMax shield. Cheaper, but not as chio as Givi. For me, so long s it does the job can already. Have to order (from MW). Wonder if we order together can get better price

PM me if you like, then see if we can nego together with MW.

 

Givi Box, as William and Mr. Magoo pointed out, you can get it from Sgp or KL.

 

There's also another make - CooCase. Cheaper than Givi and you can get ready-stock from Chiap Lee.

 

For myself, I've bought the Fuoco original OEM. Still waiting for it. Only thing good is that box color same as the Fuoco Dragon Red color.

 

fuoco gt meet up ah?

i wld love to see e bike as im getting 1 soon..

 

Congrats to you too Chubb... but aiyah... my color no more exclusive liao... now got other 2 red fuoco... we can form 3 (red) musketeers or rather 3 Red Riding Hoods?!

[Guest chaochao]

hmm.. i always use the remote button to unlock the seat.. the manual way is a bit tight but its possible..

 

Yeah - me too, I use the remote to unlock seat.

Bring to agent if seat really difficult to open. It is still under warranty.

[Guest chaochao]

bro chaochao, how's the LV?

LV does make bike 4KG lighter. From the manufacturer's specs, it is supposed to improve top-end performance, but I can't really feel it.

 

Problem now is the backfire. Stock exhaust already has backfire which agent mech says it is "normal". With LV 4Road, backfire is louder and more often.

 

I read that too much backfire is not very good.

 

I am trying to search LV's web site whether there's anyway to eliminate this. Apparently, they claimed that the LV is made to sync with the stock EFI.

 

Mr.Magoo, did you have backfire problems with your LV?
