wow, 170km on stock 48? i cannot imagine the vibration level, haha..

maybe one day i shall try after running in.. now still slow and steady..

any 48 using akrapovic exhaust? care to share the sound level? Is it the loudest street legal exhaust we can get?

[Highwaystar]

@williamleesg I guess dave was talking abt the FC la. 170km per full tank for 48 on highway.

And 150km per tank on SG road.

 

IMHO Remus street legal exhaust sound similar to stock. But its a good start for Harley bike.

Its easy to maintain the chrome as Harley did a good job on their chrome parts. Just polish once a while and normally only clean with water.

rried...

 

Never try to the max yet. I try before 156km then top up 7.5L.

Anyway I be changing to a 12L tank next 2 week. Need a bigger tank but don wish to change the shape of the bike.

[dave48]

Really cannot stand e bike with a puny sewing machine exhaust. Saw a group of harley riders lasr night. They sound so original harley tone. I really want a loud exhaust.

 

Remus or ackrapovic? I'm coming next month.

 

The stock pipe will get a bit louder after running in.

Of cos it can't compare with these after market exhaust.

Looking for XL Sportster '07 mid control kit. Anyone have it?

[williamleesg]

What kind of helmets does the majority wears on a sportster? Is full face a overkill?

IMHO there is no overkill for safety. Wear what u are comfortable.

Highway star, sportster from 04 till 12 I know definately share e same parts. So if u want mid controls,anything fr those yes should fit :)I think my fren has a set of mid controls for sale.

[williamleesg]

Well said because all this while I've been wearing full face for more than 3 years, recently wore open face, felt weird.. Lol

Now I have gotten used to wearing Flipups.... So u get best of both worlds.... During slow speed, flip it up as a open face... at higher speed then use it as a FF....

 

Saw the advert that in Woodlands centre shop , they are selling Caberg Flipups at bargain $155 .... tempted to buy.. Mine from Motoworld HJC areadi cost $200
