Can see front the side there is a key hole, might be the lock to open the box. Aiyah swing underseat can eat two open face helment, so the rear top box is to put accessories like rain coat or stuffs that is not expensive.

 

Now the questions is that who have lobang?? or custom make from local shop ?

The part no.taken from 600cc Swing is 83590-MCT-003

 

Hope it is the same as 400cc one.

How much is it roughly ??

[Silverwing JDM]

Any bros modified their JDM Pilot light ? cos above the headlight can see two holes on the left and right. Might wanna install LED light there.

[sid]

JDM models need to drill holes & it will take quite some times to get it done.

Mine is HOOP.

[Silverwing JDM]

This Sliverwing drink petrol like water, yesterday reach 215km on 1 single trip, pump to full using cheapest Ron 92, total around 11.5 litres X S$1.55 = S$17.82

but compensate for its power..

 

any bros experience when the swing slow down from e.g. 80km/h to stop, somewhere around 30km/h to 40km/h, if you hold the handlebars softly, the front fork will vibrate violently, but when coming to a stop ( slow speed around 20km/h or lesser, it is okay. Could it be the front tyre fault ??

( Front is a michelin brand and rear is Bridgestone Hoop )

I experience the same situation with x9 before.

 

[spin37]

mine's hoop too !

[sid]

Anyone had experienced with both IRC and Hoop. Maybe can share it here, which one handles better on both wet and dry road conditions

[patriots]

My is a Hoop. Good tyre for dry weather but not so for the wet. Thats how I feel. Tried riding through the rainy season and find it "fishtail" sometimes when my bike rear cross along the white marking on the road.

I never encountered such things before. Did you check your tyre pressure often? As far as I experience. I have to check around once a week. Need to pump a bit more from 20 to 40 PSI.

JDM have this vibrating problem. I think its the 01-04 model, remember reading it from a Silverwing forum. Get a good motorshop to verify the problem lor.
