yo bro fantom..

 

thanks for sharing.. good to hear some review on autosol..

 

i have zero knowledge on rust remover.. still exploring coz i am very new to biking world.. hehe.. i did remove some rust using screwdrivers.. it just goes off by scrapping those rust.. gently so it won't scratch the metal chrome or use a soft cloth in between.. just sharing..

 

btw why are there 3 types of autosol.. normal tubes, spraying (stainless steel or aluminium cleaner) and metal tin (stainless steel or aluminium polish and cleaner)..

u r welcome bro,

we in this forum to share our knowledges n experiences. :>

 

yah. like u did. for some areas, i also use srewdriver to scratch off the rust gently. have to do it very cautiously as i dont want to leave scratches on the chrome surface.

 

cover ur bike from rain will significantly reduce the chance of rust.

 

cheer :>

dragstar is truly one of the most comfortable bikes i ever ridden..

[gohjohan]

Going to collect my Dragstar Classic after work. Hope can leave work a little bit earlier to check it and then ride to petrol station before riding it home. I can't wait to see the looks on my family and neighbours' faces

 

Edited to add, that I'm home with my bike now. The bike is stable, relatively quiet and huge! The only setback is the pickup speed, have to use more throttle, but overall, so far one of the best machines I'll ever ride!!

anyone got a good condition passenger backrest (complete set) to let go.. it's for a classic 400.. thanks..

[shiraz]

i think it's $130.. the last time i asked the agent. i could be wrong though. btw, i'm selling mine. not in a very good condition though. i'll post the pics up later when i get back.

[liangcha]

hi,

 

dun mind a second hand though....do let me know when can I meet u up to deal.

 

[shiraz]

this is the side arms... they have dark sort of blemishes on them... no idea why though... cannot be removed with autosol even but was told by seng kwang that they can bring back the shine by buffing..

Original accessories from Japan is well-known for its price. I gotten a Givi of the same design as shown in Honda Shadow accessories at a way much cheaper price. Suggest Dragstar owner to check out Chiap Lee for Givi label backrest for the 650cc version.

goodness... i am quite shocked man... 400 for a back rest is way off for me but well... if its good quality then perhaps perhaps perhaps...

Hi,

Just curious, does anyone modified their exhaust pipe to sound like a harley?

How much will it cost and where can i do it?

Is it illegal?
