a friend of mine used it on his husky.... If i am not mistaken, he install at Sporting Motor at Autobay.. Not sure 180 or 280... cant remember...

compatible meh to use the vapor trail tech for our bike? If can i also want to get it leh..

[WSTAN]

I think is compartiable.

[brandnew]

its compatible! ive asked a few shops about it before cause my speedo is not working as well. But im not going have it fixed yet cause my digital display and rpm is working fine. But the only thing for the vapor is to find place to mount the speedo. I have heard that the vapor speedo can be taken out after every ride. im not sure if this is true.

[EthanDaniel]

oooohlalaaah! Now that got me interested.. How much is it retailing in Singapore anyways? I see the product pictures and it looks damn chio! Just for sharing purposes, see below!

if lcd panael spoilt and no fuel guage how u guys guage the fuel?

 

For me, i sit on my bike and i rock back and forth side to side and hear the sound of petrol swish swooshing inside... normally until the sound makes me feel insecure then i go top up.. lol

 

But there was once, i had the intention of measuring my mileage, i carried a 2 litre petrol container with me. The bike from full tank until zilch for my ride can go up until 595km.. hrmm.. if u got spare space and proper fuel container, maybe u can just carry it around with you just in case u gauge wrongly and need a top up somewhere in the middle of the highway.

I used to topup when I reach 400km.

To be safe... Always turn your fuel cork to normal..

When your bike is low on fuel ei your bike is jerky no more petrol,

Turn your fuel cork to reserve.

Reach your mileage, that is how much when u reach reserve.

So another 2 liters more in your tank

[brandnew]

i dont know if this is true...

 

When i pump shell full tank, i can reach 400. But when i pump esso i can only go past 370. haha

 

But 595 is it even possible?

Haha same for me.

That's why I nv pump Esso when I riding vara.

[napalm_rapier]

Maybe he is using elephants tanks... Haha...

[EthanDaniel]

Wow. You've got very good FC on your vara! The max i ever hit was 420km before reserve. And that was with lotsa conservative riding

wahhh... u all doing up a special deallll???

[EthanDaniel]

okok... in the name of science ( like real ), i will conduct another mileage test (prolly next week), coupled with pictures of my bike =D Hopefully it can still go as well as it did the last time round...

[brandnew]

i didnt know my theory was true! hahha guess will switch back to shell then!

 

ethan what type of experiment you doing?

 

btw guys, if i had fixed a acerbis front fender, you think its legal? my bike is due for inspection and also, i hid my erp unit below the handlebar. is that an issue as well?

[EthanDaniel]

i will conduct a mileage test for the 4 major petrols available in sg. Shell, Esso, Caltex and SPC on my ride.. which one should i do first? i'll start on monday...

 

brandnew... i dunnoe bout the fender.. but the erp shouldnt be a problem..
