i hate e colours combination totally ran out of plc.........

[papermk]

sliders maybe, brakeline nope.

 

for me is no freebies, but i am still a happy man

 

really ah , what else to ask. im more of looking to ride a 2a bike for few yrs before changing class 2 leh. but seeing ppl cnnt stick with drz for long quite scary hahaha

[BottleCap]

um is unique motors ah?

[biting_point]

cannot b fibre... ask my mech liao ah piow... anyway e slider are not original... nd to order online...

 

i still think it's your fibre.. as your FS is already been on the bike for that long..

DIY exhaust sliders melted because of the heat generated from your pipe..

i got a friend same problem, change jetting still melt..

after change fibre, miracle happened.. exhaust slider didnt melt..

 

APA sliders are similar material, just that they gave a strip of insluator,

just like the sliver thing at the inside of the right number board..

to stick before you screw the APA slider in..

 

that dun justify my $60.. just becuz of the brand..

 

um is unique motors ah?

 

yes..

uh....how come like that. anyways, this shld be the agent bike but hor, why i saw some headlights are half the size of this one n it doesn't use the bracket mounting mounted from the fork?

[DM]

my exhaust slider also never melt. must be running too lean

[konspire]

cuz we rejetted and our air/fuel mixture is just right.

 

our exhaust are relatively new with no restrictions from the baffle that traps heat..

 

most of the time sliders melted due to the bike is running too lean..

if yours is rejetted, high chance it's your endcan.. either it's too restrictive, or the fibre had already burned..

 

i.e. Delta barrel4 users will experience melting sliders if they used the 3straws baffle, but not the race baffle.. but not using the 3straw baffle will deem the endcan to be illegal..

i meant my exhaust slider did not melt, Blackbeauty's bike must be running too lean that is why her exhaust slider melted

 

 

btw, the new zee looks yucky, even uglier than my already ugly 09 barbwire design hahahaha look at the rims, eeeee so obiang lor

[BottleCap]

fibre burnt as in packing ah?

[konspire]

i think the new drz they just interchange the tanks n the plastic to play the colour combination. no more ideas liao...

[CR7]

sparkerS1 u still have the exhaust slider left? how much u selling?

mine nt lean.... retune my setting liao by holeshot..

[biting_point]

IMO, the sliders kept melting, it's surely you are runnning lean..

 

even using APA sliders also will melt..

[nineh]

guys and gals,

 

i not too sure wat the stock gearing is for the drz... but if i wanna gear it for more for top end..cruising... plan to take it touring...

 

is 16/41 ok ? or 16/39 better ? or am i gonna screw things up ?

[SparkerS1]

even using APA sliders also will melt..

i doubt it will melt, worth a try:goodluck:

is 16/41 ok ? or 16/39 better ? or am i gonna screw things up ?

 

or u can try 15/40? or 15/39?

[nineh]

or u can try 15/40? or 15/39?

 

thanks for the suggestion bro.

 

anyone else with opinions?

[Moto79]

get the biggest front which fits.....n smallest rear........

[biting_point]

i doubt it will melt, worth a try:goodluck:

my friend did email APA regarding the melting issue..

they claimed their sliders will melt if your bike is running lean..

that's why they gave the insulation strip..

 

for me, i would not want anything sticky on my pipe..

 

thanks for the suggestion bro.

 

anyone else with opinions?

 

you can try 15/39.. which i believe will be quite comfortable cruising at 90kph..

 

i'm on 15/43, my comfortable cruising speed is abt 75kph..

to me, comfortable means engine is not stress and vibrations are not too much..

 

when i'm on stock 15/41, 90kph is already quite comfortable..

[SparkerS1]

my friend did email APA regarding the melting issue....

 

IMO, compared the sliders, i feel tat APA ones is better,, way better than the rest:angel:

[overcrash]

salah! my diy-slider from limmy bo dai ji! =p

think maybe cause i rejetted before as well ?

 

 

anybody fix alarm on their drz?

 

i fixed. =)

steelmate 883.

made in CHINA!

 

 

Part of the fun of owning a 'thumper' is the feel and the sound of a 4 stroke single cylinder. Vibrations comes with it. Love it or leave it.

 

 

 

yup. i understand that

and i am living with it, and trying to "lessen" it! keke
