[DIY] How to cosmetically modify the Phantom?

[naim]

i seen that bike for more than 1.5 years..but nv met the owner! LOL.. i will if i see him.. no promises!

[weian]

Thanks niam bro!

 

Maybe what you could do would be to leave a note for the owner to contact you or something like that.

[devil.L]

Check it out at ahkoon.

 

@naim, can help me ask the owner where he got that rear brakelight cover?

[Allen]

Will check it out at ah koon. Thanks!

Bro, where can i get the taco meter?

[weian]

go to ebay.com.sg and search for "tach hour meter". i bought it off seller "dadi-maoyi" through an auction. wait till the last 1 minute before placing your bid, well, that's what i did. niam bought it for around 20+, i got it this way for around 15 (cant really remember the exact price..

 

one thing about the meter is that i dun think it can be seen at night due to the lack of lighting.. so yep.. all the best!

i tink u are better off getting a new one la.. bending will weaken n potentially break ur bar... usually heat n a special pipe-bending machine is used to fabricate the bar.. nt worth the risk...

I second that.

jeep chee in ubi does exhaust pipes bending. Maybe you can try asking them whether they can bend your handle bar for you and then let us know here! haha.

Does anyone know whether if you use this taillight will get stopped by tp or fine?

 

Inspection can pass?

Hello guys,

 

I have the custom 4 version phantom. My bike had the stock front foot rests. I just bought a pair of eagle footrests for the front from a forummer and have got them installed, but there is very less gap between the gear shifter and the footrest, hence its slightly difficult to squeeze foot in the gap and shift up. Downshifting is easy.

 

I asked the mechanic to adjust the shifter to a bit up, the mechanic said if it is moved up then the shifter will hit the engine cover so cannot upshift after 1st gear.

 

I hate the stock footrests and love the eagle ones, so I need to get this to work.

 

I noticed that there is slight play in the gear shifter, probably if this play is reduced the gap will be good enough? Any suggestions on how to do it?

 

Any other suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance!

Haha, thanks. But my friend's phantom used to have the eagle footrest set up without the heel shift and I remember it was much easier to shift. There must be a way.
