tankbag ah? for me i will just use any brand la, as long as it serves it purpose.

Best is those which can expand one. And those with clear top so can put map on and look at it without taking it out. Oh yes must have those waterproof cover too.

[mokamoka]

thats the thing... was at motorworld looking, onli have 1 model and onli 1 piece, I think.. went to chong aik today and the quality looks damn bad.. looking at the magnetic ones, by the way

Hey, I got the Oxford First Time Expander Tankbag. The tankbag meets all the requirement that you have outlined above. Contact Motrax33 (Motovation Accessory) for price & availability. BTW, I am not in any way affiliated to Motovation Accessory. Just trying to help.

[x_00_x]

oxford should be good, their name and quality have been sworn by bikers before.

[exdaredevil]

Which tyres is better on fazer, guys ?

a) Metzeler Sportec M1 , $410 estimated price

b) Bridgestone BT012 , $340 ''

c) Dunlop 208ZR , $365 ''

 

See you tonight !

[Sankar73]

Sportec M1 can get for less than $400 and D208ZR for less $350, if u bargain at Southern Motors. Although I dun like their sales tactics, tyre prices is cheap there. They also do wheel balancing well and if u're not satisfied u can go back and make them do it again.

[exdaredevil]

that s a fast reply , thanks!

i checked out with southern this morning but there is no stock of M1 rear tyre. Stock coming in next month, said ah huat of southern.

Checked with hkl but quoted $410 for it. Anyway , i m trying to get BT012 but being told by motorshop that it wears faster than M1. But i doubt so.

Hope to see u , Sankar and friends, tonight and continue to this conversation.

I just got a BT012SS rear, Front still using BT020s hahaha.

 

I burst my previous rear BT020s.

 

The BT012SS feels damn good and confident!!

 

Wearing off status... not sure yet.. see how....

 

 

The MZ4 tyres that came with with the Fazer lasted me only 20,000km

Bt012ss is a sticky tyre good enough for beginner track use. however, if use for touring can wear out rather fast.

 

more grip = less mileage

less grip = more mileage

Yeah I know.

 

But I love the stickyness of such tyres! I dun mind paying for good tyres after much psychoing from pantatj. haha.

 

After I tried em... just simply love it. Great on the bends on trunk roads.

 

 

Cant wait for my next tyre change. Perrilli Dragons............
