Ace Custom Tony, moved back to JB to semi retire. for Harley servicing and repairs,  i recommend Sanfu at Kaki Bukit.   Just google it.  They are efficient both in cost and time taken.  Simple

$80 for Towing!! ??? i'm also insured under liberty Ins, but i've no idea that they provide free towing as well.... ???

 

Thats pretty EX! Guess they charged according to the kind of bikes u ride.... usually get it thru a friend that charges me $25 only!!

 

hmmm, wat happened to yr tyres? jus went flat by itself??? :giddy:

 

anyone has the date for the R2R (Rock-to-Rock) ???

I think Rock-to-Rock is 6 - 8 July, from what I saw on their planner at the Dealership. I'm going too before I leave for my wedding.

 

For the benefit for 1st timers, Rock-to-Rock is an event where us HOG ride to KL Hard Rock Cafe and KL's side ride to our Hard Rock Cafe.

 

Then you get to park here

I count myself "lucky", I think it is fate that my rear tire puncture that "force" me to send to workshop for tire repair, I send to Ah Yee's place, & by luck there was a customer left his rim with Ah Yee's shop for sale, so once & for all, change the rear rim for good... S$800 for the second hand rear rim.

 

Never can imagine I got a solid rim so fast without going through all the viewing, ordering & travel..

 

There you go.

:btw: my front tire still use back the laced rim, yet Ah Yee will help me installing special silicon which sealed up the inner rim, the process will take two days to dry up. So as to convert to tubeless tire.

 

Well, as said by nights, its not 100% proof but I am on budget after getting a second rim & the silicon sealed up is at least better than the tube tire thing, thats what I feel.

But do take precaution on the silicon thing.

Not sure how 100% leak proof it is when pitted againts 36psi in the front tubeless.

Just went riding with gohjohan for about 100km++ around Singapore

 

At first I feel a slight difference handling for my Harley, first thought was the bike seems to increase her engine breaking, then found that it may be due to my rear rim is heavier & so therefore give me this feel.

 

The rest so far so good, no problem with my rear rim & siliconed front laced rim, runs perfect :thumb:

Well, you may wish to find out from the dealership, there you can find most of the answer you want for.

 

Look for Gary, Roselind, Kim or Daniel :smile:

 

253 Alexandra Rd, #01-04, S159936

 

Hope this will help.

i tot it would feel heavy after u changed to that rim... but if u can manage the handling then shld be ok... I once tried a harley that changed the front wheel... it feel super heavy like u can't really corner esp at low speed.... but i think afterall.... it's a matter of getting used to it. :thumb:

agree with you, the feeling is that gives you impression of increase engine break or the brake disc is jam.. but after ridding for awhile its a bit getting use to & things go fine again, check on the brake disc & shaft's bolt & nuts, all well intact :thumb:
