Hit by gravel stone. That was before my radiator mesh... 300 to recore, flush & replace coolant and labour...

http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=320659

 

To me... Nope, only if it comes with a basic rack system...

 

But there is still a need to customize it to fit onto our S4...

Which H&B you using? You can try look for Ah An at Eunos Technolink. His shop is share with a car workshop. Good workmanship I must say. Ask ldslds for directions cos he did his H&B Junior panniers rack there...

was pondering to put 2 givi e45 on my spec1. Any lobang or recommendations?:cheeky:

 

Also drooling for the H&B junior. Which should i do?:sian:

 

I orginally also want H&B but after looking around + Doing my maths... I ended up with installing a pair of E45s!

 

Never regretted my decision to have them custom mounted... But a word of advise... There are indeed a couple of things or issues that have to be attended to after mounting the pair of E45s.

 

I'm very particular about my bike's handling and it took me almost 2 months to have my bike handling sorted out...

 

Things or issues that I have attended to...

 

~ Improve Front Shocks.

~ Replaced Cone bearings.

~ Rebuild and strengthen rear shocks... Both spring rate & Rebound.

~ Installed Scoltoiler to take care of the chain as it's always under load.

~ Re-work ( Improve) the customize rack! You can't imagine the load I carried during my last Phuket trip.

~ Tyre pressure Indicator to monitor both tyre pressure.. Front 36psi / Rear 42psi. ( It's a life saver)

~ Just to name a few.... :D

 

Do remember that our bikes rear sub frame is not originally design to have any extra loading done... So it's wiser to strip the rear fairings off and check phyically to see is there any cracks or dents to the existing sub-frame...

 

This is especially so if your ride is a used unit and you are not sure of it's history... I strip my rear to bare bone to check all factory welds before commencing on my little project... No point spending that much $$$ and find out later that there are cracks on the sub-frame...

 

Just my 2 cents... Please correct / pardon me should I be wrong... :p

To Me....
