hurhurhur.... Not mods lah... Juz some accessories done on her. Mounted up a pair of aftermarket horns, swapped the right switch assembly out using the JDM one with the hazard light switch integrated n working, headlight switch done, third brake light done, room light switch under the seat done, butt rest now become back rest using the riser pad bought from ebay, and oh.... had a pair of integrated signal light mirrors intially bought for my other bike now mounted up on my SWing, initially couldn't get the lights working as per what I wanted but now everything's up n running. Mmmm.... thinking of changing the rubber foot plates to alloy ones, trying to improvised on a pair of deflectors on the lower fairing and handle bar...

 

So many... got to see the next time we meet at ubi.

Hmm. You must be the one who caused LAB to go out of stock of the IUH24 when I went down yesterday!

Btw, did you get the IUH24 or the IUH24D?

Got difference... the D got no 'u' groove de.

 

in the Denso catalog, for silverwings, its states IUH24.

[silverwing73]

swapped the right switch assembly out using the JDM one with the hazard light switch integrated n working

 

Wow, you just remove the euro right switch and install JDM switch and the hazard light is working already or you actually need to do some rewiring ?

 

Where did you get the JDM switch ?

I also want to know. Been thinking of the best solutions to get my hazard light switch done.

Nope, not as simple as just plug n play. The euro models doesn't come with pre-wired connectors and wires for hazard light function. Therefore, need to relocate the wiring on the assembly switch connector in order to connect correctly to the OEM wire harness and do some tapping of wires with additional flasher relay. And y additional relay, cos the OEM signal relay is located in the meter cluster. I wun wanna mess ard with the meter cluster in case if it short circuited, I'll have to spend a bomb changing the whole meter.

 

The JDM switch I gotten is from FJT. In fact its the same switch assembly used in Super 4 Version S or Forza. U can't use Vtec and above models cause the throttle cables L connectors are of different angles.

Just curious, since I already done my hazard light with the relay flasher. can I just get the JDM switch and just transferred the wiring end which is connected to the hazard light switch and just connect it over to the JDM switch and then tranferred the euro switch wiring to the JDM switch ?

 

Hope you understand what I am writing

[SW9000]

Time for 1.

 

Where best to gather for DIY and makan?

but the assemble does not come cheap.

 

price i believe is around 55dollars.

wanted to do that too.

but given the price.

i doubt i would want it:angel:

 

must ask scooby. hahha

COST VS BENEFIT

[scoobydoo]

I intend to change plugs together with my air filter at every 20k... means about 10 months usage. Like that I think quite saving liao.

Anyway, I bought enough to last me 5 years. haha kiasu.

heh heh... so u r the culprit for the stockout

 

anyway, denso iridium plugs has 4 types but only the "Power" series is for bikes:

• Iridium Power http://www.globaldenso.com/PLUG/power/images/top_photo_features_b.jpg
  
• Iridium Tough http://www.globaldenso.com/PLUG/tough/images/top_photo_features_b.jpg
  
• Iridium Plus http://www.globaldenso.com/PLUG/plus/images/top_photo_features_b.jpg
  
• Iridium Racing http://www.globaldenso.com/PLUG/racing/images/top_photo_features_b.jpg

wow..

so many..

then which one to choose??

hahahah

[SW9000]

Currently using the D version becos already installed before I learnt that there were 2 types.

Performance still very good and smooth though.

Will use the groove ones at next change.

Hey Dudes,

 

I am a newbie with a SW (Euro Version) . Was previously riding a Vara 125. Am darn happy with this new ride. Hope to join you dudes for meet-ups and learn a thing or two from you all. Now me jus checking out how to do a couple of things here and there and get ready for a ride up to Thailand..

 

Woof! Woof!!

ride with care bro... hope you have an enjoyable and safe trip

 

you will enjoy the comfort from the SW's windshield which Vara doesn't have but do note that the SW's handling is very different from the Vara... smaller wheels, bigger turning circle, "free wheelie" below certain revs, weight & distribution, tank is not between legs for "kiapping", etc. don't forget to eye the blinking fuel indicator... ours usually blinks around 280+kms with another 3+L reserves. my max was 360+km and topped up 15+L (risky)

probably the most important of all... take it easy on the speed ya, new bike needs a proper run-in

Possible. Its juz connecting the existing wires on your current switch to the hazard light switch on the JDM switch assembly. End of the day, u'll get 2 redundant wires from the JDM hazard light switch.

As requested, here's sharing some of the DIY-ed stuffs done on my 1month plus old SWing.

 

Ignition started wif engine running.

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-003.jpg

 

Mirrors wif integrated turn signals. Turn signals is in amber LEDs wif white 6 bulb LEDs strip self added in. Therefore, u'll see 2 colors in the turn signal.

 

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-004.jpg

 

Taillight replaced by 36 bulb LEDs. Swapped the OEM connectors out using S4's taillight 1157 connectors.

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-005.jpg

 

Third brake light mounted. Still thinking of coming out a better bracket and position to mount them...

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-006.jpg

 

Headlight switch positioned nex to the left switch assembly.

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-007.jpg

 

Right switch assembly swapped with a JDM model one with integrated hazard light switch. Vista cruise control mounted on the right of the switch assembly. The switch assembly left to main is not connected to anything yet, still scratching my head on wat's gonna be connected to it...

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-008.jpg

 

Additional hook mounted on the center of the lower dash. Using one from Aprilia Alantic I think, was given to me FOC from my colleague.

Room light switch under the seat.

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-014.jpg

 

Newly added Zeta Hand Armour Guard.

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-011.jpg

 

Fork seal protector. Radiator mesh installed (can't see clearly due to poor cam's resolution)

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-015.jpg

 

Backrest pad for rising the stock butt pad.

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i156/Maverick_L/2008-07-26-018.jpg

 

My old E52 box with backrest pad carried over from my old Forza. Being trying to get the SR19 mounting plate but kinda ex so gotten another alternative from LAB to mount the box.
