i think turtle wax only can use on like hair-line scratches... but freaking tiring sia... everytime i wax, i sweat like running a 2.4km run sia!

oh ur full fairing project coming sia! congrats congrats! btw is it cheaper than buying from HL?

 

definately. Cost me $998 SGD to purchase the item directly. I have to wait till next week for my overseas shop to deliver to Vpost (UK). Only then will I know the shipping charge from UK to my doorstep.

 

HL quote me $1600 (as of 30th march 09)without GST n Installation...

...not to mention minimum waiting period is 1 month..

hm, if deep scratch cant do really much about it. but if minor one may wanna try turtle wax. there's no gurantee that the scatch will go away.

 

  pichudot said:

wad happen to you bro?

if deep scratch or the scratch portion was roughed off, better get a professional to sand it smooth and top it up with something (i forget that was wad thing, it like some white white thingy), then repaint it...

hope ur scratch(es) was not serious...

 

Thinking back damn sian...dunno what the hell am i thinking or to be exact dreaming... i forgot to pull down the side stand while parking...damn ****! lean down too fast cant safe it, got to let it down as soft as possible but still kana scratch.

 

Tried turtle polish n scratch remover doesnt help. Got to get those rubbing compound and try. A mech used some when they install my brake hose and end day scratched my paint. Like quite good leh...

- it sure is heartpain.

- depends on how deep is e scratch. i gues may hav 2 use 'putty' & 'paint marker' 2 touch-up 1st then wax e affected area wif several layers of 'car polish wax'.

- end of e day, it may not b s flawless s b4.

- may hav 2 consider pasting stickers 2 cover it up.

Btw, Not to let you squeeze ur balls, if u looking at FZ1 full fairing, i saw a US website, selling Yamaha OME Parts, the full fairing cost USD $479.96. exclude shipping.

Then shipping from US is much more cheaper then from UK.

Better to get the sliders. Sh*t happens.

  pichudot said:

Try to press the clutchseveral times when u r waiting to warm up ur bike . If its not smooth , the cable might not be in good condition.

Actually for box, you might wanna go to car accessory shops and buy those protectors for car doors. Buy a nice one that fits the box and paste it along the strategic parts of the box which you think will hit the ground first in the event of a drop.

[Pplater]

FBD plate FZ6 is the latest model one? The tail light is damn bright, compared to my 04 model fz6. Is it a LED bulb that makes it so bright? Or has the rear brake light's cover got to do with the difference? I saw one in town last night. Bery nice Not sure if i change bulb can make mine brighter not.

i think it's not LED. it is normal bulb, 12 V, 5.0 W.

but i think that it can use LED too. i changed my auxiliary bulbs to LEDs too. : )

I checked my spare bulb, it states 12V 21/5 Watt. I have no idea what the 21/5 means, I can only presume its 5 watt. Then it does not make sense liao. My tail light 5 watt batt, same as new fz6 stock bulb, but the new fz6's tail light looks much brighter than mine leh... Most 04 model fz6 i seen around also has similarly looking dim tail lights
