Where did you buy your switch for the hazard light? Have been shopping around Sim Lim Tower but didn't manage to find the one you are having. Btw, how did you mount the extra switch?

 

Saw an advert on ground wire kit for bike. Take a look :

(URGENT)

 

HI Guys,

 

I'm looking for the owner/rider of a blue SV650 "AV *99* *" with lower fairings.

 

I have something that belongs to him which needs to be returned.

 

If you are the rider or have any info, please sms me at 97458709

 

Thanks. :confused:

An extract of a website on SV tire pressure:

 

SV650

 

Top tip: tyre pressures

One of the most useful handling tips that I’ve picked up so far regards tyre pressures. When I first got my bike it was set up F33/R36 - which, it transpires, is the officially recommended set-up. At the time I’d no idea if this was right, and had no manual to refer to. Shortly afterwards I read a forum post in which an Avon Tyres developer is quoted as saying that all manufacturers now work to a standard of 36/42 for all middleweight road bikes, so I thought I'd give this a try. I found that the SV does seem to respond positively to a slight increase over the standard pressures. With the standard set-up I was experiencing an unnerving 'tipping-in' sensation from the front in slower turns, but a few extra psi tunes this out nicely. With some experimentation I've now settled on 36/40 as optimal for my SV

How's the feeling of having a new horn?

 

:cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

New horn nice, been scaring people in their four-wheel-cages.... the pitch a little too low though, got to tune to higher pitch.

 

When are you changing yours? Any programs today?

My tire pressure was below the recommended settings;wanted more grip. I didn't experience any tipping in or whatever...still can corner like nobody's business, buah kata till nut fly off etc...

Ground Wire

I bought it from a shop on 4th floor, but I think it can be bought from most shops in SLT, but its not a on/off switch, it comes with a "flash" switch which is the 3rd pin. I mount it on the right handle bar, very hard to explain, but its with cable tie...

Position light got many colours, I think $2 from SLT. If you want free white Philip type, go for our next outing, I got 1 spare.

 

Batt from LAB I think abt $90.
