VFR 800

[SiaoSter]

Anyone using aftermarket exhaust for their viffers? hee care to share the review?

 

i only know that available exhaust are Arrow, Remus, Laser and Leo Vince.

 

anyonw knows the price? *sheesh my backside getting itchy*

Tyres are very personal choices and it depend much on your riding bent and budget. I like BT020 as it gives me the right balance of cost-performance. Gives up to 20,000km mileage. It cost me $280 a pair at LAB - close supervision and patience required for peace of mind here at LAB.

 

You can troll the many threads herein to see other viffers experience.

 

thanx for the info bro..

This is the reply given by Andrew regading about micron for VFR800:

 

 

I presume you are asking VFR800, well, MICRON dose not have a street legal version. Only race Slip on. If you are interested it’s $1200 for Alloy (stainless) and $1400 for Carbon or Titanium.

 

 

 

We also have ZG Screens, BITUBO Suspension and Pipercross Filter.

Anyone know how to greatly increase the 2000~5000 powerzone legally?

1) Power commander with street legal leo vince pipes?

2) Up the rear sproc?

3) anymore suggestions?

Thinking of my next upgrade now...

[Friday13]

Care to share how you do it? Pictures would be most welcomed

You will need to operate a bit on the inner foam to fit in 2 clip-on head phones. Then use your creativity to find a way to housekeep the wires and MP3 player within the helmet. Every helmets differ an I have currently engineered it into my very old aeroblade... Works well when you have a traffic jam. Speeds over 120 KPH, then forget about music already. The head wind will knock all the fidelity out.

Just an FYI here:

 

In case anyone needs to replace battery, I just bought a unit of VFR800 battery (ytz14s) for inzagi_75 from KS Cycle at a decent price of $135. It is original Japanese Yuasa that comes prefilled with electrolyte just like the ones from FJT. This battery needs to be properly charged the initial time in order to get the best life out of it, currently trickle charging now.

 

KS Cycle is along Jln Besar, on the right side of the road in the direction towards Sim Lim, somewhere close to the Jln Berseh food center.
