Eh Visual >> Which Mah did you get your lightbulbs replaced at? i too was told about the Piaggo lightbulbs by someone here but i have my reservations. Tell me when you're going down to replace it and i'll tag along.

Our bikes are using the same light bulb as Vespa. Changed it the last time round and checked the wiring. Now been months have not blown a single bulb. Make sure the bulb is clean before installation else it will have concentrated heat spots.

Also once an electrician told me never touch the "glass" of any new bulb, bulb will "kaput" easily.

 

The right way is that after install, wipe the bulb with a piece of tissue paper....clean one of course....... :smile:

 

Btw, it works for me, not my bike but the ceiling lightings at home...blown every three months, wipe with tissue...the problem gone for two years.

think i really need a light bulb change.. so when i go to LABS i just ask for " phoenix 12v halogen " and he should know right?

 

White light huh... some ppl say.. it emmits more heat. thus can melt the reflective parts in the headlight..

u use so far.. i assume ok?

 

actually im keen on getting normal.. but reliable bulb.. the brand 'abba' *hehe* ur nick change to 'abba' lah.. anyways the one he recommends...

im going to try mah parts.. pretty sure he will have...

 

 

all this talk about raincoats.. makes me abit worried... as my raincoat is ok for the middle range heavy rain.. but the super heavy one.. yep the "crouch"-ing tiger will get wet lah..

 

but $80 for me.. is way too much for raincoat.. ill prob get pro grip rain coat again.. *as 2 yrs ago when i used it.. the heaviest rain.. it could withstand... only these days... its "water proofing power" is gone..

[Pro Dero]

1. daystar, the tire cost 120 at ghc yishun rear 1 only its made in brazil, horn when wanna fix?

 

2. visual the halogen is very bright than the lousy vespa bulbs, its not white, dat want more ex n use more batt power, heard its not legal if not original stock item.

mah motor sucks man the service is mother ###### sh*t waste of time, same as hkl at bukit merah.....btw labs got meh? try good bike shop like looi at kaki bukit.cheers mates!

[visual]

pro_dero.. the last few times i was at HKL..ok lah.. * was told management has changed.. the guy in charge is alrite lah....* i mean in bukit merah.. where else can i go.. and to go to kaki bukit.. abit to far off for me..

 

are u asking the 'phoenix 12v halogen' yellow bulb is not approved?

[pingster]

believe pro dero is toking abt the white bulb not approve.

but fr wat i know as long is not HID, the others are approved.

[Wild 1]

Abattory>> I think if we're gonna do a tee shirt i guess it's up to the group to decide.

No idea, but Motoworld is carrying this brand. To the best of my knowledge, models ranges from $199 (if on sale or odd size or outdated models) to 400 or 500 bucks.

 

Don't quote me, me no own the shop.

visual,

 

i used to own the pro-grip also and still is, but the rain coat not "breathable" so it stinks after a while, even with washing. SO i tot can give a try to this.

 

aniwae, i will feedback if this raincoat has performed up to standard lah, but please be patient.

 

Cheers
