[bigcow]

anyway, any idea how much is the voltage/watts for the LED headlight??

 

i looking at 35W or lesser type but able to give brightness like 55W and above..

 

anyway once u change all your lights to led esp signal, you need to change to electronic relay else your signal light won't blink....

 

After changing signal bulbs to LEDs, likely will blink as faster rate. Tested on a few of my bikes. In some cases, Hazard light blinking speed remain as per normal.

[wave125]

Thursday 5/11/09,730pm at rail mall same or sw9000 were confirm location again,it not were be the same .

[anodise57]

But the light is so dim and unable to see the floor....... Mainly for cosmetics look only.... Tested and proven.....

 

Best is HID.... Or a new product call HIR bulb....

HIR about same bightness as HID but without the ballast.

But..... 100watt instead of normal 55watt.

 

Autobac can sell the LED bulb and not cheap.....(PIAA cost about $80 for a pair)

 

Pole light i still like the 3SMD high power LED.....(brought mine @ autobac for $70.00 per pair) Very bright and long lasting.(firestorm know. )

hi can find out frm u where to buy philips extreme. tks.

[Sensible]

Front tyre kenna nail puncture yest morning.

 

Travel on 90 kpa for front tyre (less than half of usual) on PIE and limped into Changi Veh Com to change during lunch time

 

Lucky only small "hole" so still can mend using worm.

Very sayang to change again

Front tyres quite new, some more never go touring..

Went to Kallang cycle to install a few gadgets. I must say the workmanship of Choong is good. He is a very detail mechanic which is so different from my previous experience. I noticed every wiring he tapped or cut, the usual process is wrap with a insulation tape. but he go the extra mile to have a cable tie over the insulation tape which enhance the protection. This is only one of the observation there are a few things he did which impress me too.

[Guest chaochao]

pushed me luck a little far just now... not good for health coz very stressful

 

felt very relieved when i finally arrived at the esso petrol kiosk with odo showing 398.2km. the other time my bike went dead was at 402km so i was like please pleaseeee don't die yet; machiam holding on to a bursting bladder and running for toilet... whahaha

anyway, topped up 15.7L of synegy 5000 and that gave FC of 25.36km/L.

have tried synergy 2000 & 8000, MY/SG shell, petronas, caltex... seems 5000 gives me the best mileage

 

have you tried your tank's max range yet?

 

My full-tank range is 363KM... till the last drop (until have to push bike).

Reserve lasted 89KM inclusive.

But at that time, my SW is still running in.

Always been using Ron 95 petrol (EssoMobil usually)

bro,

that's normally what it should be done to ensure that the tape won't fall out by itself.... but of cos only those good mechanics will do so.....

 

another way is use a kind of tube and insert inbetween after which burn abit to let it "reduce" its size and tighten the hold.... that way look more neat and less messy...

[scoobydoo]

than shrink thingy is called heat shrink tube, available in various colors and sizes (diameter). can find/buy easily at Sim Lim tower, size that can fit a thumb costs about $1.80~$2.50/meter.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-shrink_tubing

 

haven't seen any motortiam use that as yet and i'ld be darn impressed if the mech does... maybe when the price is darn impressive too
