Yeah. I'll be getting a Daystar for sure now. My dad wants something safer, since its his money, he gets his wish, but I love the bike too. At least its nicer than a Phantom, which was one of my other options.

 

No chance of getting back my old bike like a Mito or anything that looks to speed demonic like, my dad isn't in favour of bikes anymore. He used to, until statistics on bike accidents seems to go up. Statistics are lies, but my father won't bet my life on it.

 

The Daystar I'm planning to get has a wicked sprayjob. Reallll wicked. Gonna go down again this time round to test ride. The posture not exactly all the same. Gotta get used to that. Its a good thing I stay at Ubi Ave 1. Every single bike shop is in the area. Lol!

Oh... I bought a Daystar. Will be collecting on Wednesday. Looks like I'm part of the Daelim family now!

 

And I can't find a Daystar Thread.

Reading through maybe about 70+ to 90+ pages (It was tiring... ), seems like stsoh is one of the more experience people here, alot of self testing. So maybe when I DO get the bike, I might need help too!

Very relaxing ride, sounds pretty nice too. Not really ah pek bike lah. More like very classic chopper, something like those with the chopper bike guy you see on Discovery channel. I'm 19 actually.

There's one at CKA being in the process of being restored back to original state to be sold again. I've enquired with them just yesterday, and it'll be going at slightly over $4k. Can't remember its plate, but if I do remember correctly, it was registered 2004. Do check it out at CKA Kaki Bukit.

 

Ohhh... Any recommendation, and how do you actually lub your chain? Because last time when I did my Mito, I'd normally clean the chain with GT85 first, then I'll lub it with Maxima Chain Wax or Chain Oil, can't remember, just spray only.

[ztaik]

woow tt kinda a little steep for a 2nd hand issit. slight more than 4k OTR ?

kkb branch only 1 2nd hand roadwin?

thanks bro!

[Xenophobia07]

Wait ah... I left one 1 point. Slightly more than 4k is only Machine price.

 

Btw, any suggestions on changing of Headlights? I've been scouting round the forums for those "White" Light, not HID ones, but just change bulb to ones like Phillips Blue Vision, or Osram Sylvania Silverstars. But I've also come to notice the power of the bulb is important right? Like how many watts and stuff.

 

So can anyone enlighten me.

[Xenophobia07]

My bulb watts for Daystar is the same, 35/35w. But my yellow or orange colour light like very faint leh, macham battery want to die!

 

So I was thinking of changing. If first I ask Roy and Amy for white light, they straight away say Inspection fail, but I think they thought I meant HID ones.

[Xenophobia07]

Oooooo... CKA is really very very very good. Do alot of stuff for you. After sales is extremely good. 2nd Hand bike got servicing at certain Mileage some more.

 

Roy is extremely friendly and nice. Do my bike until very swee! Damn happy with my new ride!

[MightyBoo]

Thinking of refurbishin my bike to like brand new again.. mmmm when i took over there were patches of scratches =( going down to cka at toh guan and query soon..
