huh? TLR endcan only 460??

 

what brand is that?

Hi suzuka,

sorry for thr confusion... I meant someone offered to mod the original endcans for so called "brother" price of $460....too ex in my opinion.... so I found someone else to do it cheaper.

Jason knows me...too well....

haha... Shoei...OK, if we get in group order 4 or 5 sets, what's the price for the rea sets?

 

Glad you are happy about the endcans... I personally think it's a good deal too.

 

Actually.. I am quite itchy about the tail raiser... coz that could be a prelude to a undertail exhaust... I was just looking at the area under the rear seat....

hmm.. moving the tail lights a bit give good clearance for grafting something under....

ideas ideas... arrgghhhh!!!! NO TIME!!!! No place to D.I.Y.

Hmm.. I don't think it will be an issue wrt placement as long as it's street legal.

Was thinking of grafting a yoshi approved or original TLR endcan, single can, onto the rear undertail... nothing firm... just an idea drifting around my head

[yctradingsg]

i doubt there's any yoshi approved end can bro...that's the problem

any1 want the spacer bracket ?

i can cut only the spacer bracket

spacer i try to find the material (dun think workshop have that size)

i can get it done in my workshop (laser cutting) ...

just tell me how many u all need ....( mostly free )...

 

i want to know more about the TLR as i saving up for 1

Guys,

168... well, I know his real name... but for the moment we'll use his "168".

OK, he made a lot of the spacers.... cut and drilled from a 4mm thick Aluminium plate... does not look like it's strong enough alone... but I reckon if we sandwiched 2pieces and bolt on, it should work.

But no liabilities for me or 168..

Bro, thanks for the spacers for the tail raisers...

Guys any TLR outing plse sms me so that I can inform 168, he would like to trade stories with you guys about the TLR.

[johntan]

A better way to raise the TLR tail and improve the handling is to use a after market bracket or maybe if there is space, put a spacer to raise the tail via the big bolt on the rear shock.

Has anyone here done it before?

Comments...

Anyone know if there is a extension aftermarket bracket (part item 10) available?

hi dude

im not sure about the price.but he state 190 for each

if we can get more maybe we can slash another 10-20 bucks off i guess.

no promises thou

 

i have no profit too.im ordering so if anyone of u guys want, i can order together to save the hassle to order and make again

 

it will take about 1 month from now to have the rearsets on ur hands thou.

 

for me its a good buy coz its adjustable and definate a bling factor!

You are absolutely correct.

Using a spacer to raise the tail (via the sub-frame) does not change the geometry; so it's only of cosmetic value.

 

Apparently I read that for bike that tend to run wide (ie: TLR) you could raise the rear shock and hence change the geometry to make the bike steer quicker.

 

So raising it via the rear shock not only improves the cosmetic value but also improve the steering for the TLR.

 

Also... raising it this way (as against using the subframe spacer) does not require you to modify the endcan hangers/bolt point as all else remains the same.

yeah but for some of the guys here, we cannot do any height adjustment to the aftermarkt shocks we have i guess.

 

maybe i will be ordering some tail raiser from tlp if i can get hold.
