hi skipjackies,

 

thanks for ur precious lead..

 

we have got the quote from them at $19/pcs, the quality really good..

erm..

 

anyone can find the product on the webbie provided? coz i cant....

 

can post a pix here?

 

[amen23]

Yo guys,

 

This is the pic (splashproof cigg lighter switch ) we took at the shop...

[Simon Soh]

amen23,

 

how should we arm it with fuse..? wonder if wil it decrease the battery's working life...

 

but then, it's a useful terminal if we installed it safely & properly.

[amen23]

From wat I know from the web and workshop they said need to change to a higher Ampere like 13A... but we can try 5A the most the fuse blow....the best is check how many Ampere the product we going to use going to draw.....if not can use multimeter to check.... Hope all above is correct as I'm not a electricity train.

any idea how to position it conveniently..? i was thinking of situating it beside the fuel cover...

 

it comes in handle when u have luxury or emergency item to use...

Don think it is a good idea to have some electrical thing which is capable of sparking near our fuel tank isn't it. Explsion is the last thing we want to our machines Rite? 5 amps fuse is good but it can be better if we have a 5 amps circuit breaker don need to hassle to find replacement fuses again.

[kish_garfield]

sorry people. jus read the past thread and found out US model is in miles. saw 1 FN plate for 80,000++miles. cause see no logo of PE. one thing, cause got a FT plate beside so try listening to both engines. noticed US engine louder/rougher than PE. Not the first time comparing the both engines. notice the volume at looi's also. got slight ticking sound.

 

Saw a FP at a carpark with PE???? so after 1996 then all PE???

The other way is look at the side of the engine. If there have 4 chrome metal tubing near the exhuast area, those are US model.... correct me if I am wrong

[kish_garfield]

thanks all for your words. still thinkin. only milegde pullin me back....and the budget and color gives this the best choice. hahah well any more wise word jus throw it at me. and would appreciate if anyone would want to view the vehicle with me....hehehhe

[PearlST]

we have helped many with viewing of ST1100 and had successfully

 

purchased and fulfilled some dreams....

 

if u have surveyed and notice any ST around... maybe can just PM

Simon or myself in advance ... simon is a more technical person

for viewing of bike....

 

U can also tell us here on the Shop or thhe No.plate of the bike u saw and we can

cross reference with the others to give u some advice...

 

Good Luck and hope to see you on a ST soon

 

CHEERS

[kish_garfield]

well for budget wise, not very high cause i am still serving the country. saw 3 at new southern not old one. 2 PE and one US. for color and budget, the US model suits me. but miledge a little high. i do not know whther it is of too much concern. anyway would want to settle this coming week.

 

one thing southern has given a better price for every thing tat other bikes shop cant match. well if the week starts n anyone willing to help, jus call me at 96385714 or pm me ur number n i call back. thanks.

 

one more thing also saw afew st at looi's. there are also 2 PE and one US. US sounds like fallin apart.(engine sound) n mileage is abt 120000 miles i think. PE quite newer.

[PearlST]

To show that u are sincere about getting us to assist u...

 

why have u not PM any of us...

 

I already told u that we did a lot of survey with help from Simon (the most

helpful and not asking for anything in return) , our guru...

hi collina,

 

welcome on board...

btw, how does the circuit breaker work & how to install it properly..?

Thx 4 e warm welcome!! we can share knowledge and improve ourslvs. CB open the faulty circuit in case of excessive current instead of fuses tat blow and need to be replaced Adv of circuit breakers(CB) to fuses : it can act as a switch ; could be easily reset {a great deal to our touring trips} CB too have ratings, installation wise it is exactly the same as fuses. Both devices come in betweeen the positive terminal and the lighter socket. Cheers

[PearlST]

i have been longing for the installation of my

cigarette lighter attachment...

 

But due to the uncertainties of whether it will be harmful and

dangerous to the bike...

we have delayed the installation....

 

 

finally have a Electrical Guru that can assist

hi Collina,

 

how about to come into installing a CB & where can we get it..?

[Guest Collina]

cbkooky has got the concept rite!! We should route the breaker as near to the battery as possible so as to eliminate any chances of a fault b4 the CB. I would recommend fitting it under the seat for easy access.

 

Method

Link battery +ve to any point of CB then other point of CB to lighter socket +ve then from lighter socket -ve back to the battery -ve And tats it!!!
