ya its look dam bright at Night...... take about 3 to 4 working days buy they need to take ur meter away... if u can ride without meter like me does... ...then shouldnt be a problem.

 

Cost is about 160 i get from Motorworld...

 

for the KM/MPH thing... depend on ur Meter u using now... they just Follow n custom it....

ahah then i need to fix back my speedo to make it running back again before i send to motoworld next time... cos after i change my rim to 17", i cant fix my speedo gear on the new rim... (94 models and below have a speedo gear reader on the front rim). cos now me temporary using the Sigma digital speedo, display too small, reading is accurate but lagging. when hard accelerate, the digital speedo cant read the thing in time.... can see the meter suddenly jump from 100kmh straight become 240kmh... sianz...

hi all..

 

Today is the most memorable day of my life.

 

My bike had its virgin fall down a pavement this afternoon and is a bad fall with deep holes and scratches on it. Nearly cry for it..

 

haiz.. Any ways to cover the scratches and holes by DIY?

 

How much will it cost to respray one piece fairing only?

 

A very regretful day.

haiz..

 

Cheer for all bikers

Think need to tell u all the feeling of seeing ur bike fall, haiz is like end of the world coming especially being owners of powerful CBR919.

Last but not least hope the sharing of my feeling could give u all a reminder to take good care of ur bike or else.. haiz.. u will have regretful feeling like me..

so far the tires i tried on a 16", from dunlop 207 sportmax-bridgestone 010-metzeler MeZ3- pirelli diablo, the tire wear out just as fast as the rear. (sometimes front wear out faster than rear, happen on my metzeler MeZ3)

the center still have alot thread, but the sidewall really too fast finish. i got feel that when on a 16" rim/tyre, i tend to push the front harder than the 17". (i put more body/hand weight to the front). with the 17" the weight is more to the center, n the tyre last longer too.

besides, a 16" tyre is slightly more expensive...

hey what about the illiminated blue color meter gauges can show me??

hi... sad to hear dat u dropped ur bike today. i understand how sad u feel, cos i also feel very damn sad when i dropped mine for the 1st time. had a dented tank n a broken clutch lever.

 

light/medium scratches can be removed with cutting polish, deep scratches which shows the undercoat definitely cant be done without a coat of paint. price for respray/touch up should not be more than 100bux lah...

 

anyway please be careful when parking/sitting on ur bike.

i dropped mine 3 times within the first 2 months of owning the bike... cos i was sitting on the bike, then forget to put the sidestand..bike jitao fall on me

normally happens when we just change to a new ride.... never happened to me after i got used to the bike.

eheh good stuffs ofcos must wait... i've seen some UK/US bike mags advertise, selling for about 200USD the exact same thing leh...

 

its cos now they duwan keep stock of 16" tires, cos in the market, 95% of this size is used for the CBr900, very small market. besides, the 130 size tyre is bigger (10mm) and also heavier than a 120 tyre.
