I am interested to protect my headlight from damages especially when i am travelling to changi everyday

protective sticker must ask ah keong... he's using on his super wing.

check liow post lobang here ok... i also wan

 

what i know is AR2 Performance is doing RACEshield for Headlamps.

last known price was $65 but i'm not sure it fits the needs as it is made of soft material.

while it may protect against scratches and chips from light impacts, i'm not so sure if it can protect the brittle plastic headlight cover from cracking as well as the thick acrylic plate previously sold by motoworld.

 

anywway, some protection is better than none but is the cost worth... you think think lor

 

btw, think i saw at autobacs and giant selling similar transparent sticker protections... can also DIY.

 

why SW now so expensive... JPY exchange rate lor

yen rates recently is around 62~68 (today abt 62+), but it was around 75~82 few years ago (e.g. 2007 till mid 2008). in late 2007 to early 2008, machine price was only about $10.5k, now is $13.65k; factor in GST and difference is >$3.3k

anyone here can teach me how to put profile picture???

agree with bigcow, the pirelli diablo scoot for SW are cheap n good tyres... many of us are using that. around 170+~190+ for a set of nice grippy compound that're still quite lasting.

can drop by KC and talk to ah chong, he can work out something for you; my spare tyre is also with him, we can work something out too

 

 

hmmm..... sounds like a good deal. what you mean spare tires?

Tried calling Equipment Extreme many times. Didi bo lang answer the phone. I want to find out how much they charge for grounding and PA.

PA2 is distributed by Equipment Extreme but heard from SW9000 that replenishment stock at showroom (extended warranty) hasn't arrived yet.

it is also available through resellers/installers (standard warranty).

 

 

 

Pivot Raizin VS is even more widely available... Autobacs, car stereo shops, car assessories shops, motortiams, etc, even online.

Unique Motorsports has a package for VS+grounding

installation of the PA2 or VS is very straight forward... simply connect in parallel to batt, just make sure polarity (+/-) is correct (PA2 claimed to be uni-directional though). small thing to ponder is where you wanna put the "magic box" after connecting. i have mine hidded inside the left rear side cover so it is swee swee out of sight and won't take up cabin space. but with grounding, why not pay a little and let the experts get their hands dirty

He got 1 spare front wheel used only 1 day.

The 1-day-old front tire can be sold separately.

Just need to order a new rear tire and that's it.

Sian lor looking as it is right now, i don't think yen will drop any time soon. at least for a few years.

Continue to look out for a 2nd hand SW loh.

No problem with Honda engine de.

Just need to spend some $$ do full servicing/checking and upgrade the front suspension (at least) then good to go liao.

You can try the PA Auto too if you don't mind the $159 price tag (I think). With better abusing of power, maybe your bike can corner 1-hand at 180km/h also leh?

 

  racing_tech said:

PA v2 $89 have to pre-order cos we only bring in PA Auto now. if you get the power abuser u can get the 3-layer structure shielded ground kit at $35 including installation. Cheers

[Scarab]

Allo...you all ride bike too often liao...need to take the bus...quite smooth usually...

 

And Mr David, you sure you wanna go to JB on Sunday...coming back gonna be hell...lol...

[Elton]

Just in case if anyone were to wait for Jap Yen to drop, I suppose it might increase steadily over the next few months....

And anyone includes me too... hahaha.

 

Statistic shows that the highest exchange rate for the pass 10 years is 10 july 2007

at

S$1 to 81 yen

 

now is like

 

S$1 to 61.9 yen

 

imagine if the machine price is $13650 now @ 1-61.9yen

if it was 81 yen the machine price would be $10431.

 

Damn

haha. Hell for cars.

4-5pm I think bikes still ok.

Negotiating with upstairs to close the tap... no rain!

Must check with Scooby and ah Choong cos if getting the full set (front and rear), should factor in the installation too.

Might just save a few dollars since SW tires are already the cheapest in town.

[whyzee]

jus checked with juzzwheels, $65 for raceshield for headlight. at least for tmax and swt-400.

[SW9000]

hmm. Got SW on sale leh.
