You can try Metzeler ME880 tires. I also know that Metz has whiteside wall tires for the rear but none for the front.

Sweet looking bike!

I installed my saddlebags and tool bag yesterday. I've had it in storage, for nearly a year and thought it was time to use them for my long rides this coming summer.

Nice. The tassles on your toolbag, does it come in contact with your front fender?

If it does, it could leave a mark after some time.

Thanks.

I was also worried about that. So far, I've rode it around and looked for marks but there weren't any.

I could remove the tassles if it did.

Hi guys, I washed my bike yday and had no problems this morning when I rode to work. However on the way back, my engine sputtered especially at gear 1 and 2. I suspect some water had entered the tank. Is it safe to just continue riding and hope the water goes down or should I empty the tank?

Thanks bro.

I'm here in Manila, Philippines.

I bought the saddlebags from an ex-shadow rider together with other stuff he didn't give when he sold his bike.

The re-chroming was done in a local shop here in Manila. I'm sure there are shops in SG who do chrome work.

I got a surprise gift from my daughter in the USA.

She knows I love my ACE.

It's a cover is it? So you don't need to replace the choke knob?

That's right. It covers the original black plastic choke knob. Very easy to install. Took me 5 mins. only.
