Transmission Oil anf the Rear Wheel drive oil must change mah. 3 places to change oil inclusive of the Engine oil. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v210/FazeGabes/EMOTICON/ylsuper.gif

 

Wheel Bearings cos, there is free play http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v210/FazeGabes/EMOTICON/ricky.gif already although it was torque tightened to its max. A bad wheel bearing will affect the entire shaft system which will lead to a transmission problem..... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v210/FazeGabes/EMOTICON/eek2.gif

 

Rear Tourance Tyre how much? any idea? 200+? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v210/FazeGabes/EMOTICON/naughty.gif

wow, the support from the touratech pp, r gd. actually i received a reply ydae latemornin regardin the questions i posted to them early in the wee hrs like now 3:00am ydae sent them back a reply n they sent me back a reply by early afternoon ydae juz 4hrs after i sent them back my reply. cool~~

 

tis is what they replied regardin to my long list of queries to them in my post on pg40 of tis thread. hope can be of some reference to ppl who wan 2 mod their gs1100 in future

 

 

Hello Martin,

 

as long as you quote art.-no´s it doesn´t matter from which page to take them.

But if you want to get an idea of the prices you should look at the german page and switch the language into english (http://www.touratech.de/shop/enter.html?lang=en-us). Than you only have to subtract 16% german VAT to get you price for Singapore.

 

Now to your questions:

1.) Yes, those parts will also fit together, no problem

 

2.) a) I don´t understand why you want to change a better DE-lamp into a usual headlight. But anyways, the double headlight 040-0283 won´t fit with a Desierto rallye.

 

b) This would be the best option. I should fit theoretical together (and makes quite good light), but we as we don´t want you in Singapore the first one to try it, will test it beginning at the next week by our self first.

 

3.) Yes the additional fog light fits with the Desierto fairing.

 

some notes:

- You know, that the rallye equipment (such as IMO, controlllamp unit and roadbookholder) are not included in this fairing. You would have to order those parts separat.

 

- The fairing is a hand-made GfK product, so it can be the way, that you would have to invest some work (grinding) to adapt it.

 

- postal delivery would take about 1-2 weeks to Singapore. As the freight costs are high to Singapore, you should think about a different way for delivering. We usually send everything by "normal post", but you could get it picked up here by some other service (to your one costs, but maybe cheaper).

Our prices are about this: up to 5kg: 55,73 € up to 10 kg: 94,08 € (you´ll get only charged the correct weight of your order).

 

Hope those informations helping a bit,

best regards,

Moritz Lindheimer

 

 

 

 

hahaha~~!! apparently im the 1st mad guy in sinagpore who was tinkin of retrofitting the other headlights into the rayalle kit. hmm...hope gd results as they say theoretical the mating of the different headlight into the kit is possible then really got sometin special damm... tis is gettin 2 be a more $$ n $$ mod olredi, wife will kill me if she hears about tis not if i tell her i sell my vfr onli take back abit $$ onli tats on top of the starter motor tat cost 500-700 bucks tat i have to replace as my suspisions veri correct bout the sounds i been hearin frm it n confirmed by my mech,hai~~~ next up re-wrapping of all the wiring harness in the bike 1 by 1 n gettin tat haynes bible my fren for gs1100 my fren was tellin me about

Wheel bearings and Steering head bearings - These are the 2 things that I hv been monitor closely, checking them every now and then but think they are still working fine after 10yrs with 119,000km, I had checked with my previous owner and understand that during his 3 yrs ownership, he didn't change either.

 

So, GsGabes, you may not need to change them till telltale sign appears - tt's rusty water leaking or rusty marks on it - but of cos, better to let the mech check and advise, think japanese brand might need to get them replace more regularly, especially for racing bikes and cars, 30,000km and each bearings cost about $150. usually requires 4.

Erm... dunno leh. The Mechanic did mentioned that its about time becos of the freeplay.... hmmm.... maybe I try to get second opinions....hmmm

Its very comfortable and good for long distance riding. You can get it at Peformance Motors at the Parts Counter. Should be about $20+ per piece.
