Hi all...

 

I've just bought a used Ducati Sports Classic from an ang moh expat.

 

The spokes are really rusty and a few rust here and there. Anybody got any good tips to share on how to remove the rust and bring back the shine?

 

Thanks very much in advance..

Hi guys selling my Gopro HD Hero3 silver edition 1 mth old bought on impulse just for one ocassion. I forsee that i wont be using it that often so might as well sell off. Retails for SGD469. However i have additional accessories like Suction Cup Mount and LCD Bacpac which i purchased seperately. Selling everything at SGD600neg. Used just once therefore in superb condition.

If is surface rust autosol will do. If deeper than that, you can try HG rust remover from SELF FIX, got to take time to brush off the rust. But header rust will not do, got to rechrome or apply heat paint on it.

I might be the 2nd (3rd?) modern cafe racer with the hump at the back, after the chromed one, and also heard about a black one,

but never seen it before. Anyway the project took about 4 weeks with 80% DIY at carpark and the rest needed help for the welding, seat upholstery and sprayworks. Credit goes to Ah Ann (Bike Fabricator) for helping me with the welding and shaping of the seat base, Ah Boon (Bendemeer) for the Seat upholstery and Yeow Motor (Ah Ken) for the paintwork according to my design. Paintwork as good as the now closed Replica Spray Paint. Already got curious stares and questions about what bike it is. heeeeeee

Thx bro. Was looking for a tankbag for practicality.

Marco, nice bike. Would've gone for the Kawasaki estrella years ago

If I didn't have a bad experience with my GT 550 and fear of expensive

Kawasaki parts.

Anyone here riding the w800? How is the reliability like? How is it like to own? Because all the reviews I've read online are by bike magazine testers. Really love the styling and look of the bike. I'm planning to get a bike that is not covered in plastic everywhere and with some character. IMHO Modern bikes are awesome in terms of performance but they just lack soul..
