According to Boon Siew, Honda car is made in thailand not affected by earthquake. Honda big bike are made in japan. Smaller bike in Thailand. SW-T400 is big bike for them.

For sw 100k mileage servicing, anything special need to be replace? I heard can do engine, piston bua big big more power? But expensive. Is it necessary?

haha. for me, if nothing wrong, dont disturb and cause more problem. those wear and tear, gonna disintegrate one, can change la, but engine if ok, just leave it.

Correct me if I am wrong. I just saw a Silverwing GT... Thought only SWT 400 is available in SG? It's a FBK or FBH plate. Saw the over drive button on the left side...

 

 

Let's just ride....

[Tanarthur]

Oh my bad... Just did a Google... Seems like the Silverwing GT is the 600 model... Guess is owner PI it in... I may be wrong?

So far la, in sg the GT models seem to be 400cc. Everytime i see one, i confirm will remember the plate number and check online. All the times so far, it has been 400cc.

check this out

* Replacing the Seat Damper-Opener

 

no need to buy original, can go ACM and let Ah Choong fit one aftermarket/mod unit that's cheaper and stronger, maybe last longer.

i'm now using the aftermarket unit, it is slightly bigger (body circumference) but fits well and seat stays up firmly... strongly recommend that over the stock

suggest call Ah Choong to check for availability before going down.
