try using a thinner to clean it, or those tar remover. Since its your exhaust, you dont have to worry about the paint work. As for the Scottoiler, you need to adjust and monitor untill its drips sufficient oil onto the chain, too much of it will result in your rims getting smudged as well.

 

 

***Walaueh!!!!! Yesterday wash and polish bike, today rain. nabei.

most of it is off oledi.. was in the carpark at 1.30am in the morning trying to remove melted plastic.. damn... anyway will get some petrol to try to remove it later when I get home.. so you fixed teh engine guards as well??? ...

 

Do you think a hugger is necessary??.. Cos I was thinking, the main thing on that one that Sha showed me, is the extension to prevent dust and flings from hitting the rear shock.. was thinking of just doing an extension to fulfil that purpose.. you interested???

Hey, what brand is the hugger?

[mokamoka]

think its H & B, imported by Biketech21.. perhaops you should drop by and see for yourself if you wanna isntall it.. think I'll find a way to put the extension cos I wanna see my tire...

[x_00_x]

Ki Katana, The ballencers does help abit, though you might still feel some vibrations. there is definitely a noticeable difference.

OOh, thanks for the info.

 

How about signal lights? I found that the Fazer's signal light not really attractive, was contemplating changing the fronts to cateyes.

[x_00_x]

so anyone else keen on changing the signal lights bulb to led? LED is purportly to be longer lasting and brighter as well.
