Yes. You have to follow the black mercs (their "delivery" uncle) to their workshop at Kallang Industrial Estate. Once their, make sure you tell the mech there what's your purchase with the receipt. Then get your bike done ASAP. Or else you will wait till siao...

u got to go down and try it for urself...before u noe wad should be made and not...

every ppl got diff riding style in PG...so not everyone's mods u can accept...

i did change my position of my handlebars...and in e end..someone said e geometry of e bike will be different n not easy to ride...but i feel its better dan stock...and easier cornering at high speeds...

some ppl say no need dampers for such a class 2b bike,no use...

some ppl say 120/80 is better...but i feel its rubber by e side is not enough for me...so i chose 110/70...

By "changing the position of the handlebars" you mean lower the clamp? Yeah it does change the bike's geometry but it depends on the rider. Anyway did you find your rear shock too soft?

 

Anyway I am going down this weekend for my first time. All stock settings except the exhaust got operate before. Using a set of 1 month old BT39SS (120/80 rear). No dampers or any accessories, heh.

 

I will bring back some pictures and share what I feel after the session. Thanks lah, esp Jason and Zec.

I know what you talking about. You put the bars below the clamp like the "sport configuration" instead of the original "road configuration" found on road-sport and sport-tourers. Did you have to swap the bars around to fit them in?

 

I cannot do that because I plan to use my bike for longer distance (like Kota Tinggi, Desaru, Malacca and later KL). If change to "sport configuration" my wrists will develop carpel tunnel syndrome siah...

[ZeCSP]

no need to swap...if u swap..u will find dat e handlebar angle is not rite liao...so u jux got to amend abit to fix it back in without swappping...

so u still wanna my track boots??

Currently no money to buy, paiseh

 

There's some problems with my front brake. Since I last bled the brake and changed new brake pads, the wheel does not turn freely anymore (there's some resistance). It also has this "frop frop frop" sound when the wheel is turning.

 

Today I went to bleed the brake again, and changed the rubber rings around the caliper pistons. I also got the mech to totally clean the caliper assembly. But the sound is still there, albeit a lot softer. The resistance is also less and cos it's much easier to push the bike now. Braking power feels a bit less because now I can press to brakes to the max without jamming the front end.

 

The funny thing is, when the bike is just done, the brake can work and the wheel can turn freely. But after some riding it comes back again. The mech did recommend changing the hose. But I think it has got nothing to do with it. Or am I wrong?

 

BTW I went PG this morning. It was a very different experience. I ran into the grass once but was unscathed, luckily. It is really a test of the man and the machine. I am by no means good, and the machine is not a good track tool. The footpegs are too low, the windshield is almost useless at the straights, and the handlebars are really high.

yo zenderboy...the tyres i using is metezler...... .............any way wat u guys talking abt the stock setting???wat is tat huh rhema83

I tried Metzeler ME1..

And sad to say, the tyre failed me terribly....

The compond and heat ratings is not suitable for our SP..

The tyres don't heat up easily due to the light weight of our sp thus won't get sticky..

they gave way on me in the tracks and caused me to high slide!!

 

To me now, I only trust Dunlop TT900GP as it has never fail me... but must get the profile right.. Recomended is to get 90/80/17 front and 120/80/17 rear...
