For me if its a long distance from home to camp.. i will keep. Since its already full cash payment already. But troublesome abit.. every 2 nite must go down warm up bike. Wad unit u in ?

I m enlisting into commandos. The main reason i forsee is COe left till end of next yr. So if i really dun get to use...n touch wood COE prices rocket up like 96 or 97 or even like late 2001, i m paying n paying when i m not even using my bike. N if i try to sell my bike then might suffer a very big loss then for hardly even using my bike.

Bro..is it nessary to change the dusk cover and metal clips?How much does the dusk cover n clip cost?possible to D.I.Y?special tools needed?

For the dust cover, you can see it externally, its the piece of rubber covering the around the fork. I change mine because its old and crack, normally you dont have to change. The metal clip I check the manual and its recommeded to change and GH also told me to change when I enquire abt the price to service the fork.

Bro..dun mind but can u explain the procedure briefly.thx alot.

I did not see the process because there are many bikes servicing in the shop and the boss ask me to leave bike in the shop, so I just left my bike there (afternoon) and collect it back in the evening and its ok already.

the 1st 3 items u bought from KS? actually the main reason y i starting to give GH a miss is the prices of the stuff..ok lah, granted original parts..but hor..pocket not so deep

I get all my parts from KS, all genuine suzuki parts.

not sure if there is a simpler way. But the way tht crossed by mind is to put a mini circuit with IC chip(N gate)which is lights up the led when circuit is broken(head light off) not sure if the led can make blinking one or not.

You can get a switch that came with a bulb inside and wire it to make the switch light up when headlite is on. And when headlite is 'off', the switch light bulb off much more simpler with LED.

 

See my previous post on the pic of my switches, the orange color switch for my fan has a bulb inside but I did not wire to make the bulb on.

Went LAB today to check out the BT45 tyres price, Ah Boy 'side kick' told me ard $140++ for 110 front and 150 rear inclusive of installation. Not sure if he quote me wrongly as there is another rider asking for tyre quote at the same time.

 

Saw the Suzuki Impulse 'Sai Tao' in LAB also, its grey color and material quite rough, the side kick told me its $80 but the wind shield is not in stock yet.

[jkaiser]

impulse very rare ah..but today was looking at the one stardust's riding...very much like our bandits..cept airbox shaped differently...bigger tank...dual rear shocks..

Will pay Kata for the parts exchange which is a win-win situation for all . I get the parts which I want, Kata got a better price of his bike by selling off the good parts and the buyer gets to buy a bike within his budget
