With the right tools n the right sifu, possibly Yes.

to all dragstar members/owners...i managed to download dragstar650cc owners and service manual.(soft copy english) drop me a pm if u need it.

[lovebelow]

thats cool. i have that too but apparently i can't print it cos its 'locked'. is yours the 'unlocked' version?

[swirlacer]

i nv try lei.but it doesnt require any special access password kind.it is in adobe reader format.

[lovebelow]

yup it doesnt require any password to open the file. but u just cant print out the damn thing. haha!

[swirlacer]

mine can print. i switch off my printer and test.can go thru. but of course i didnt print la. haha.

[X-ilED]

i have one printed. if u need can photocopy.. but got oil stains here and there la..

[nojam]

is there a difference between dragstar classic and dragstar custom? or does it simply mean that customs are dragstar classic customised...

[plasticblackspecs]

The main difference is the rear fender. Custom is bobbed, the other is full farring. I thnk the height and the foot controls are different too. Custom is lower and more forward controlled

Here the pictures for the two models.

Thanks!

[swirlacer]

sent to ur email le. enjoy.

[nojam]

thanks plasticblackspecs and nights for the info!

 

so the main difference i see from the pictures are the fenders, headlight and front wheel... wont be able to tell height and both foot control actually looks same to me.

so is custom still under production? if so how much does a new one cost?

[plasticblackspecs]

I dun think, but there's some customs for sale. Mostly 10 yrs from what I see. My opinion la, if it were me, I'd get the custom, if classic, I rather get Shadow. hee. But that's just me. I have a wide eccentric taste

[hagar]

Classic looks more comfortable for pillion if you intend to carry one. Then again pillion on custom may hold on tighter hee hee.

[swirlacer]

yes definitely hold tighter on custom,esp if u dun have a backrest.

[newdragstar_rider]

go for the custom

[nojam]

custom definitely is more kickass. i dont like big bulky looking bikes with big fenders. i'm more of a bobber mentality... removing what is unnecessary on the bike.

Any one tried drilling their exhaust like in the web site http://www.650ccnd.com? Tot of doing it, if inspection fail I could just weld a plate over the holes. I've already got a 12mm drill bit to do the job.

 

Any comments?

i went for the full gut... frickin loud... had to fab some baffles for it to soften the tone. that telmo mod u can try la.. but dun have too high expectation.. u want a deep grunt.. u gotta fully mod the pipe.

[AngMo]

I recon anythings better than the total quiet I've got now. Havent done it yet, found my drill only takes 10mm bits!?!
