[DIY] How to cosmetically modify the Phantom?

[systemx]

Where can I get affordable and good looking headlights? The one I have now is in bad shape and the bulb is really weak. Any recommendations for a brighter lightbulb?

 

Also, would like to get those handlebars that look more like a chopper so that I can lean back more.... but not too high like ape.

lim ah boy has alot. go check it out.

[metaldude]

how high do you exactly want it to be?

chest level, shoulder, chin, nose, eye, forehead.

 

& seat. intending to make it thinner or thicker. mmh,

 

chest to shoulder level would be fine.I am thinking to switch to those CM125 type handlebar.Any idea if they can fit and where i can get them?I went to auntie shop and the nearby area but they don't seem to have those type.Didnt have time to visit Ah Boy though.

Yah lor, LAB not always stock what we want. I thought can just get the bullet type headlight and use some really bright bulbs like philips bluevision.

Anyone tried the 7" risers from pinkphantom? Is there a need to get longer cables? Think it would be nice for the taller riders wanting the stock handle bar.

Also, where to buy the chrome grips with horizontal rubber strips?

[kmjoe]

longer cables will be required if u r using wide handlebars... IMO taller riders would suit the straight or wide handlebar better than with the stock ones...

u can find those at ah boy/regina or the shops beside

I beg to differ. For wide handlebars, you can continue to use the stock if you reroute the cables & brake lines so they run outside the forks.

I got 1 pair extra, if u wan I sell it to you.

depend what kinda handlebars are you using.

unless its ape hanger, above shoulder height. other handlebars are usually fine (passable).

[jevan]

alright thanks devil.L

Hi PKs, does anyone know where I can get this kind of thing made? Like rear cowl/fender but with taillights embedded inside.

Hey guys, is it worth to mod a phantom ta150 left 4 years coe non renewable? feel like modding but i scared when the time is up need to scrap i will miss it.

[jevan]

2 questions,

 

1) Anyone knows how to make the phantom signal lights become pilot lights? Like Super4.

 

2) I have a problem with my posture. Im always slouching. Which way is best to solve this?

 

Should I change to higher riser, straight handlebars, wide handlebar, adjust the seat?

 

Do all these help? I want to sit up straight, so that my back doesnt hurt after riding from tampines to jurong.
