Yo sorry to hear abt that dude, care to share what happened?

 

i hope its not becoz of your faulty front brake discs?

[ambasnakeman]

actually i have already replace the front discs.

 

i dropped too many gear and clutch out when aproaching traffic light. 50m from home. end-up back wheel overspin, front started to slight.

 

bike shift left, i counter right.

bike shift right, i counter left.

bike shift left again, this time......i holding handlebar, my ass was off the seat.

 

i fell down. bike slide dunno how far. i slided for about 2-3 meters and managed to push myself up like those motogp stunt(discovered by accident). by this period, i had already brusied both my elbows, and left knuckles.

 

lesson learnt, next time want to do something stupid, do it on a super 4, with crashbar and wear jacket and gloves

[ambasnakeman]

i continued picking the shattered upper left fairing parts.

 

somebody alerted the ambulance. but the malay gal sgt say, if u r alright u better disappear fast. wait police car come problem.

 

after picking up the fairing parts......i neglected public offer to help me lift up my bike. then pushed it home.

 

attitude problem u can say

Hi guys,

 

thanks for supporting the poll. Great response.

 

woohoo seems like more than half you chose STOCK colors as the best.

 

But may i ask those of you (other than Rhema83 who had expressed his opinions) who voted "STOCK IS DA BEST" what affected your decision?

 

Lez forget about resale value and all that crap, pretend they dun exists. Do y'all really find the Original RVF colors sexy, appealing, nice, stirs your senses..etc etc??

 

coz i think some may have voted taking resale values into consideration.

 

ok..stock colors and your feelings...SHOOOT~~!

oh, but wont you rear wheel lock up? it happened to me before when 'chionging' a green arrow, too many gears dropped and my rear wheel locked up. luckily i throttled abit and regained grip. nowadays i always watch what im doing, cant afford the bike going down

 

 

seriously ride safely la amba, rvf fairing expensive! arggg! luckily you're okay this time man..

Don't think the wheel will over spin if u drop from a high gear to lower gear, infact engine brake should be stronger thus causing better braking effect. Unless u didn't let go of the throttle when changing gear. 4th gear to 1st gear? Wow ur bike must be screaming like hell..... :nono: to u bro...

Hey Guys,

 

If any of you have the following spares in whatever conditions, good, bad, scrapable;

 

1) RVF Sai-Tao ( Head fairing)

2) RVF air ducts

3) airbox

4) tank (dented, scratched, rusted badly wana throw away liao oso nvm...just make sure the front plastic part is still intact)

 

Can consider lending them to us. promise to return them in the whatever conditions they came in. can contact me, tachi or Melv. we are planning on conducting a test of the RVF's NACA or NASA air ducts and its effectivity.

 

Amba...not to gloat over your recent misfortune but do you have any of the above to contribute to our little project??
