Hey guys,

 

Been reading the threads and noted that the fuel tank is a 10 + 2 litres.

 

However, was riding to work today, then suddently lose power then quickly change to Reserve. Only clock 150km. Hence, did my maths and thot with a 10L tank, would clock till about 300km, before i head for petrol.

 

Did another search on yahoo and some forums reporting 7 + 2 litres tank.

 

Clarifications needed. My owners manuel is in Jap, hence no help there.

 

Thanks folks

what problem exactly your rear shock faces??

 

You dun see ppl with Ohlins rear shock riding around..

furthermore rear shock is protected from the harshest abuse, it will not be spoilt easily unless really tampered with..

 

try to get another shop's opinion..

 

most DRZ had their rear shock set up wrongly.. ended up very soft..

improper suspension setting may affect FC too, get your suspension set up correctly, and you'll see a difference in FC..

not sure bro..but wenever i go up a hump there will be a squeeky sound...

how much does servicing e rear shock usually cost..? unique quote me 280bucks..

Capacity is 4 US Gal about 15 litres, 50% more than the stock tank. Imho, anything bigger will be to too heavy and bulky. Able to use Acerbis lockable fuel cap too.

 

Polyethylene tanks are strong and durable compare to the original furthermore no corrossion or rust. If your bike fall flat on a flat ground most likely nothing will happen, skid and fall tank will have some scratches only

Have these polythylene tank on my old ride (DR650) for 10+ years

 

One thing to note, don't waste $ on having sticker on these tank as they may not last as the petrol will 'breathe' thru the tank and will not stick well after sometime.

 

Just to highlight that you could get the IMS sticker similar to the one seen in your previous pic attachment to paste on the IMS tank. I'm using one right now and it looks awesome

 

Not sure if Ah Seng brings in the stickers in though..

Hey guys I'm looking in getting a full system for my Zee. Would like to seek advice from the senior riders regarding this topic... Dont wanna regret in getting it...

 

Is it true that the newer Delta full system has higher restriction in the system?

Looking to get a system suited for longer journey, eg; Joo Chiat to CCK...

 

Hope you guys could help out...

Thanks...

Read my FAQ.

It covers most things and questions if you have for exhaust.

 

Go for Yoshi if you have the moolahs..

If not, the new LeoVince is quite promising..

[adamant1988]

hmm if my guess, if no really a need..mayb can keep it stock?think its good enough for transport..can save or keep for the rainy days like wear and tear issue.

I believe the yoshi is a confirm guaranteed plus chop, worth the $$$ spend...

Abt the LV there's a new model in the market? Any site that shows it and any shop that sells them?

pls pm me

[Jastin]

Thanks bro .. have pm you already.

[Raptor]

Just a word of caution here with regards to using aftermarket headlight bulbs.

 

If the wattage is too high (read as very bright)... be prepared for wire melting and shorting and at worst... a wiring harness change out for the bike.

[Jastin]

Oh thanks for the feedback.. but if voltage and watts of aftermarket light is the same as normal bulb, will it still cause the problems u stated?
