[bigcow]

Just want to find out since now I can start my bike just by pressing the ignition button without pressing the brake (thanks to big cow suggestion).

 

Let say if my scoot battery is flat, can I sit on the scooter and let it roll down the mscp slope and the press the ignition and hope it start akin to like pushing bike to start ?

 

wait long loong...

wat u going to use to turn the fly wheel to kick start the engine??

without having to press the brake to start the bike already helping u to conserve battery power when starting bike.

this mod is already giving u a higher chance to start the bike if the battery power is low.

Diablo is good. Most are using these. Can get lower price if bargain at Motoworld with Muji.

 

Michelin Feelfree is a bit better than Diablo on wet roads but cost about $220 a pair.

[patrick1131]

thanks for the reply , I didn't know there is Michelin Feelfree =)

only heard of pilot series , like pilot sports / scooters ..

will go and read up abt the tire ... anyway my rear tire reaching the indication marks already , need to get them replaced soon

Today was at Sitex.

Serious nose bleeding... lucky wife never noticed.

 

Bought a Compact laptop ($799) and Lexmark wifi printer ($149) for the son.

 

Got myself a Toshiba portable hdd 500gb at $135. $4 cheaper than Thursday's price.

 

Was looking at the 52" LCD TV. So tempting but current one still can tahan.

Heard that Metzeler Feelfree currently nil stock. It is good for wet N dry weather. I miss it. Now no choice, changed to Diablo Scooter.

[patrick1131]

with front wheel balanced . I noticed the tires are made in Brazil instead if German which my super 4 diablo tires are made

How I wished I could,

 

Being grounded long time ago. Still waiting for exit permit.

 

No need to wish....hehehe

Just do it hahahaha

[silverwing73]

I have commited a sin.

 

I saw the new silverwing park at my block mscp. I cannot resist "raping" it.

 

It curve was so alluring. It back side so taunting.

 

Dammm. if only the front windshield is adjustable

 

I just have to sit on it. Even the 2 front compartments was redesign.

 

For those who place their IU on the right compartment, I don’t think it can fit anymore.

 

Even the fuel front cover (black) covering is also different, there is no catch, you just push in (where the current silverwing petrol cover catch is) and it will flip upward

 

But the seat storage point where we insert the key to unlock has been moved upward the near the side of the rear seat. as such, when open the seat for storage, the key is pointing downward instead of usual sideway insertion. kind of funny to me.

 

Darn, should have taken some photos

for those who value the option to keep the ugly IU out of sight, this is a minus point

 

also heard that the new GT doesn't come with a "cigarette" point inside the left glove compartment (not anywhere), that's another minus

maybe the designer tot that'll help some riders quit smoking... whahahaha

[patrick1131]

anyone changed their brake fluid (bleeding)before ??

 

I want to find out will it take a long time for the fluid to flow thru the rear brake line as it is much longer than conventional motorcycle ??

any ideas??

HelmetBOX!

the original 12V socket in the left compartment can't be use for smoking unless u change the internals. cos the original one can't grab the cigarette socket.

u are talking abt does it take a long time for the brake fluid to flow thru the rear brake line when bleeding or braking?

[patrick1131]

yes , i am asking does it take a long time for the fluid to flow thru ,

as I was told by one shop it may take a day , so if I want to do bleeding I must leave my bike over night .

I am thinking of DIY , worried after bleeding the fluid flow really slowly then cannot ride the scooter

Pls, won't take much time de. Just a little troublesome to do due to the combine brake system. But suggest u to go to a scooter shop that has proper equipment. Cos the rear brake is combined with 1 piston of the front wheel.
