Was a 1k but I got shot of her a few months ago.

 

Noise cam chains, had crashed it and had problems with the registration so changed it for a blackbird 99.

 

Was a great bike but a sh*t in the corners on the Micehelin 66 tyres

 

She was also a nighmare to get through BKK traffic cause of the height - great view but no good when the going got slow - sh*t fuelling

 

SHe had full givi set, Remus cans and MRA adjustable screen.

 

And kevelar body parts looked nice.

 

She slid down a hill in a national park and she was ok.

 

a few scratches

KC >> I bought mine at $816, along with 4 other systems. SO its the price u get when u buy 5or more

 

I definately think its well worth every cent i paid for it. Sounds SWEET! and that is with the silencer on. U can counter check with VVVV , keke

 

BUT I was told by the LTA guy , we are the last batch to pass this inspection. SO he asked me to remind my frens who would b getting it to THINK TWICE. Guys its ur call k .

 

Its would be FANTASTIC if all VARA BROS could ROARRRRR together.

VVV & Vara >> How about that...

ATwin >>

Look like interesting...lets try this one. i'll bring the KTM 620 :-) Kekeke...But I think before i reach there, my bum already torn from riding N-S highway...

Seroiusly, it looks good ley. I very interested.. Varas, wat you say?

 

Varas >>

I'm abit concrn about the weight of V1K too... David with his AT is the more appropriate ride... and our tyres!!! Alamak...

 

KC >>

The deal is SUPER! Take it before it's gone. Good sound and quality for that $$. ARROW cans are too expensive i reckon... close to $1300

 

elws>>

This week, lets go to ZION road to eat chicken wings!!! Yam Yam...

 

riddick>>

You come this week, I pass you the Malaysia map.

 

Don Didie>>

Your Thai map book still with me... is it a gift which i can keep.

Quite like it lor.. Kekeke...long time no see you. Wats up bro..?

Do you guys do any grounding for your ride? Is it supposed to improve mileage?

mmm.......think about 4 or 5wires.....can't remember liao......

only way to improve mileage is to throttle less or travel on highway at curising speed........

chrislayer>> bslong is correct, control of the right hand is impt.

 

Anyway , Vara suprisingly had a mileage not much diff from AT when both cruising at 150km/h.

Plus minus few RMs of petrol only for the same amt of mileage and speed.

I think you really mad liao.... gonna change the $2K tank??

I suspect you print $$ lah..... Actually...emm... me interested also ley... :-(

 

ATwin >>

Yar yar...tell me about it ... you fish fish like limo...Ok wed can do..

Tonight me can't come also

Can you help SMS the brothers..?

 

bslong & chrislayer >>

The grounding cable logic same like car ones...

Tag cables to starter, engine, alternator, battery and radiator/fan.

However, it will only have an effect on older bikes due to inefficiency of old cablings.

Not expected to increase horsepower or save fuel...

just that it helps to restore back the efficiency of a much newer bike.

Did some research on tat before.
