search the web for a rear hugger for the tmax, didnt come up with much luck...just this italian site where they are charging for 130euro and i dont think it worth that amount..i think i can do a DIY hugger and a better looking piece from thin aluminum and paint it black..

no problem...u have any pro mechanic gd in doing lighting?as in opening the headlight cover n sealing it back tightly w/o leaks as to not cause fogging?coz cxcx n i are keen to do projectors + hid mod..

[maxxmadness]

hmmm. my lightings i have always look up ah heng from southern motors...collected my bike today and went to him for dual headlight conversion and a switch to be able to switch off all lights except only the poles. and ya added extra pole lights to the front signal lights area.

 

i find the stock screen kinda hinder my view, it like at a neither here or there height..i think a sport screen would suit me better..just waiting for hl stock to come. overall pretty pleased with the bike, remind me of my goldwing..

[Lion]

Can you please enlighten me on your dual headlight conversion.....

 

When you start the engine, only pole lights on, then you press your customize switch then the low lights on the dual headlights turn on... correct?

 

Lastly when you push the left handlebar mounted high beam light switch, the right headlight high beam comes on....am i correct?

[maxxmadness]

@sexyh

 

yes that is correct, the dual headlight will use the H7(original low beam) and add an addition wiring to the H4 side. You will still have passing light and high beam capability, even if you switch off the low beam and have only the pole lights on.

I have the switch cut into the fairing near the left pump reservoir.

 

I have a voltmeter on my tmax and the readings as follows:

 

idle with low beam off - 13.5v

riding with low beam off - 14.0v

idle with both low beam on - 12.0v

riding with both low beam on - 13.6v

[maxxmadness]

i know it still early for my bike but i read from the owner's manual that V-belt needs to be change at 20 000km interval? what the cost like for the v-belt?

 

transmission chain oil? what are the better brand of oil that is on the market?

[momo1605198623]

hey bro's, i have 2 sets of workshop service manual and 1 set of parts manual for Tmax from year 2004-2007.

I'd just changed mine for the 2nd time, last week @ HKL. If anyone needs to know the price I paid, we can compare, just PM me.

 

I dont think its 20,000 KM, i think its 10,000 Miles!

 

As for transmission chain oil, remb, NO NEED to open the whole transmission case, as there's a gasket there, which will need to be replaced! just drain out thru the drain-plug below, then fill it up via the top.

Yes, I'd bought this bag, anyone keen? I could sell it to U, its been sitting in my cupboard for months, only used once, brought it out to try the fitting, 99% new!

[maxxmadness]

@ n@kano

 

thanks for the information...

just on the curious side about the bag, is it waterproof or does it come with a rain cover?

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

looks like i am done with what i want to do with my tmax for the moment..dual headlight done, sport screen and fender eliminator done...just done a custom GPS mount at seng kwang....now main objective is to run-in the first 600 miles and have a oil change and then can tour on it...

[valwilder]

[the]
