Is it necessary to get in group in order to get good price where else individual purchase (like Jooser & Sabbaha) can still get at the range of $60-$65?

 

I thot i wanna get it along with you guys but after analysing the factors,i brought up the issue(see above) of its necessity. Thats my opinion

thats what i thought too.

 

maybe jooser and sabbaha willing to offer their help in getting the huggers?

 

of cos provided they are free and willing to do so heee

 

cos pple like me who kana quoted for 80 bucks definitely wont be able to get lower by so much

[s4vtec]

my aim here is to collect as many ppl as possiblein a list then i go down to motoworld and ask for a good price with this list.

i'm doing as a interest and at the same time helping other bikers to save $ and also can get to know each other through such gatherings. by 25th July when i finalised the list, i'll go down to motoworld and see whats the best price they can quote me... who knows, i may get even lower than $60???

eh no the registration fees is fixed one $52.50 if i not wrong

 

the difference in the titanium pricing and the fire spec is $50.

 

the $50 more is actually for the rainbow colour on the end can for firespec

 

the performance got no difference for both i believe.

 

or am i wrong?

 

my bike shop also ask me to get the titanium good enough...cos personally he find that fire spec not nice hahahhahhahahha

[Spec3FBA]

Oh ok..cos juz putting the endcan doesnt have much diffrence in performance but it'll boost ur bike outlook and the sound will be much "nicer" to hear.

[SiaoSter]

does using it a PB1 header have improvement? hrm.....

 

since a few fellow riders done it.

 

or maybe should chrome our headers to boost the outlook. but dono how much it cost. according to one of our fellow riders, previous owner chromed the stock headers and after 3 years of riding its still nice but of cos need to polish to keep the shine

jus to share...

my end can upon installed to my bike gives me 3 horse power, as shown in the dyno report. can feel the difference in the power. not to mention the sound too!

Did you tried the max out of your pipe on the real tarmac? or you just refer to the paper(dyno report) alone to satisfy the claim?.

[nebulaz]

end can doesnt makes much different in power fi ya do not change different header size,aftermarket filter cos the air intake still the same..me 2 cents

[Dscheng]

hMM... Make sense too..

the dyno report is jus a test results to show how much increase in hp on paper after the yoshi endcan is being installed.

but most importantly, its the feeling of the power, torque and respond of the engine as i ride my s4 after installing the yoshi endcan. its really different. really can feel the the punch, the difference loh...

peace!

Spec3FBA, do you wana get the hugger too?

[Spec3FBA]

Ohh..ok,u mean like taking theory test but practically never "tried" your Yoshi lah. Not good to keep a leopard under chains you know..might as well keep a cute kitten or doggy cos it doesnt need chains and wont run as fast as a leopard

 

Yeap,but next mth only budget quota for bike had reached it max cap.

Hi,

 

Without suspension raiser, the rear hugger can actually touch the bottom of the bike (actually touch at where the storage comparment part is) when the suspension is compressed hard enough. When this happens, the hugger will be scratched. (so paintwork/sticker there scratched). Anyone experienced that? and got around to solve it?

 

Above is for specs II. The only solution i have is to put suspension raiser or harden the pre-load to 4 or 5 and pray that my suspesion don't depress that much.

 

Hmm... Jooster any scratch on your hugger paintwork yet?

bro, u r using the arrow type hugger?

i think the arrow type hugger gives more clearance to the tyre but at the same time like what you encountered, will touch the underside of the storage compartment area thus scratching the hugger at the arrow tip...

the normal type hugger give very little clearance but i hope it will not touch the tyre due to vibrations ba... cos i getting my normal hugger soon...
