Leonhaslam...active on easten side..met fews time while driving but pass me on my left side while at bend.....my son speechless....next thing he ask me daddy can I ride your bike...

 

Wow! you have a great son my man

i use to be like him (adores big bikes) cuz my dad use to ride a Gixxer (although just a 400cc)...

i used to run to him when he got home from work, take his helmet and wear it, sit on my tricycle and act like a racer....

I'd ask him to take me for a ride (i remember my red helmet with a permanent visor, the button type) around the carpark (last time no MSCP)

I'm sorry about overtaking by your left man....maybe u didnt keep left, so i LL overtake u by e left n then keep left (unless overtaking)

i got no choice cuz i'm working & Ma'am staying on eastern side

was driving last night at 1020pm saw 2 lta fellas outside a house (honda bike parked inside) !

 

they actually parked their bikes outside his terrace house wanting to have "chat" with the owner

 

this is getting ridiculous

 

Location will be much appreciated......as can keep the rest of us on the look out.

 

Maybe we can start a WATCH Group for these WHITEEs and sometimes BLUEs.....

[MI_R1]

unfortunately for them, i happen to know a few spots where they regularly "tuang" during office hours

 

guess what might be coming out in Razor soon ?

 

STOMP them......

[germs7]

my turn to get caught today.

 

After reading all the posts I decided to switch back to stock exhausts on my 848 over this weekend.. just my ass luck I got stopped by LTA today morning! location along the PIE just before Toh Tuck exit, towards tuas.

 

My fault for running illegal termis so I dint really reason with him. Going for inspection tomorrow morning, not looking forward to the fine

 

So to all, it may be a good time to switch back to stock at least for the moment, or go for approved ones..

 

I may be selling off my termi slip-ons (only), anyone interested can contact me...

 

ride safe!

[conjurer]

As for me, I depart tomorrow for 2 weeks. Leaving the babies behind. The bike was resprayed. You can get a glimpse of the new color scheme in my signature

Sure man, I'm in overseas now. Coming back the first week of June. Hope to meet up with the rest for some poison session. So, did you respray your Diavel like you said you would? I'm so interested to see the outcome.

[i-link]

I attempted to change my pressure plate to rizoma star design but there doesn't seem to be any cap in the middle of the rizoma plate to push the push rod into the assembly. I only realise this after I change everything and I couldn't clutch in...

 

So I dismantle everything and tried the OEM plate. If I pushing the plate in manually by hand the hydraulic clutch is still able to pump, once I tightened all the springs,... it doesn't pump at all - cant' clutch in.

 

Anyone can help?

 

How does the Rizoma pressure plate suppose to push the push rod in if the centre of the plate is hollow?

if not how to install back the OEM plate? ZZzzzzz

 

p.s thanks Fesa, Skywheel and Leon... sorry I dunno your real names yet...

if i change back stock exhaust, i also need to change back the ecu, filter?

[Naked1]

if i change back stock exhaust, i also need to change back the ecu, filter?

 

No need. Test and proven by me. Now happily riding around without fearing of getting caught.FC is almost the same as stock also.

[red rocket]

if i change back stock exhaust, i also need to change back the ecu, filter?

 

Depends on YOUR bike (not model specific but your bike).

For example my bike (998)

race pipes with stock ECU - low RPM keep back-firing, high RPM no power

stock pipes with race ECU - OK but CO2 high (above legal limits)

- but with their matching ECU no problems (even the CO2 is within legal limits)

 

Oh yeah... I'm not running stock air filter for the longest time...so does it matter? I don't know.
