i got a spare spoilt bowling ball rdy to use as cannon ball

 

See the correlation?

 

Release bowling ball in the middle of the expressway = deadly rolling 90kph object.

 

Definitely beats my self-defense 'malfunctioning' chain oiler that spills 1L of engine oil onto the road

 

Wah you 2 evil lah! Kekeke....

[Shunpo]

got questions again~`

 

Usually, different base plate can fit on the same rack or not?

Just got my e52 maxia~

 

Went unprepared with the tools, (bought from sellers) end up bicycle hooked my box on my pillion seat and ride back @_@ LOLS

[Vashie]

That was epic...lucky your box never UFO off your bike!

[Shunpo]

lols. I was riding it like a sports bike ~_~

 

The box took alot of space of the seat. I am almost sitting on the tank already lol. and my mirror loses its function partially. But heng sia~ Reach home safely LOL.

 

Hope I don't get stomped or something

[Vashie]

My box fly I do the 100 meter dash in front of junction also never got stomped...I think you can rest your mind on that.

Think you can turn the box up and let the 'back' of the box sit on your seat? So will be slimmer right? Keke... But importantly is to reach home safely lah!

What's wrong with riding a Phantom like a sports bike, it's one to me LOL

[Pandoras Kitten 3]

Yeah, I was hunting for some used fairings in SBF garage sales.

 

If I installed them the aim would be to direct air into the engine compartment but at low speeds it'll likely overheat due to the enclosure. Since I ride my bike in the early morning and at night, jams aren't an issue so I might just take the risk.

 

Was offered a Super4 bellypan too but declined as I have no idea if it will fit at all.

 

At TPY today I saw a "motosiao" uncle riding a GN125 with a windshield swept back 70 degrees and riding leaning forward. That guy knows his aerodynamics lol

[Guest B_E_N]

my phantom used to have shrouds/wings. haha..

[coolcat]

Guys,

 

One of my friends needs a phantom part. Can anyone let me know where is Ah Koon now? Used to patronise him when I had a TA200 long time ago; now dunno where he is. With phone number if possible.

 

Cheers

[kmjoe]

it's touching ur exhaust?? our saddle bags all diy bracket one... actually this bracket looks good jus that if it's touching the exhaust, hopefully the bracket will not be too hot to melt ur bag

[kzone]

Made some adjustments to the holes to create some space.. that was the bracket for my old phantom and i think i got it for $30+ only.. now looking for something similar.

 

Ahkoon has something meant for hard case which can also be used, but it doesnt look like it fits perfectly and cost too much

 

How much for diy brackets? Is it just a single L shape bracket to support the bottom of the bag or something like my pic?

[kmjoe]

jus a simple L bracket is good enuff as long as the middle portion of the saddle bags are tied to the max n tight enough

[DivineCreations]

Selling for just $75 dollars. Price nego.

 

**Lim Ah Boy sells Their Malaysian made ones for $180 (A Pair+Racks+Labor)

Is the L bracket suppose to keep it fm slanting inwards & touch the wheels or support fm below to avoid touching exhaust?

[kmjoe]

mine was for keeping it frm slanting inwards, but i wont touch the wheels thou, jus dun look so nice nia... and most impt not touch the exhaust and alow both sides to look equal...
