Ho my god, my front brake switch also not working, but I dunno how to fix it even with a new switch from Sim Lim Tower.

 

Anyway guys, its time of the 2nd year again, time to change tires. Any recommendation? 170/60, M900 size. Budget $400, I'm using Bridgestone BT014 now.

bro....breathe

a very small screw hold the switch.use the screwdriver for specticle.

my bet,its not the screw but the rear brake light,they are very dodgy and un reliable.what year is yur Monster?are you willing to change it to the newer ones for abt $50 @ Minerva? or retro fit LED sets.

 

stick to the 'stone they are reliable as hell.on and off track.

170/60 quite rare though

180 will be easy to find.

i heard that megan foxx is an ex tranny. OMG i hope it is not true. Can anyone confirm this? This affects the decision to buy an Aprilia.

 

I received an email sometime back abt her speaking to CNBC abt her boyhood days.

 

Dont know if its true or not.

 

Just check that the new RS125 for 2010 dont come with a slight dent in the back of the tank as part of the design.

try using contact cleaner and spray it to the switch.

if it fails,change to new ones.

Ok will try, contact cleaner can get from Autobacs right?

 

Original one costs a bomb, if not working I'll just leave it, been riding without it for so long, just use rear brake I guess.

[vincekam]

Does duke rear brake actually works?

 

Cheers!

best u get it sort out asap.it is important come Inspection time.

lol...front to brake rear to light it?

 

btw,any mech diagnose this b4?

if so i am assuming it was a professional conclusion.

if not happy DIY:angel:

 

b4 u mercilessly spray the contact cleaner

 

1) touchy feelly the switch gently.

2) see the mechnism workings.

3) try non evasive cleaning

 

if its jus dirt problem then it'll be easy

maybe the switch can be safe

 

if not

 

dissassemble the mirco switch gently.

 

clean it with contact cleanr and see what happens.

 

switches are durable try all possibility 1st.

 

did u check fuse?

[tabako]

Cheers!

 

Just used it for the brake lights only mah, I will still use my front brake.

 

Rear brake not so bad lah, I always used it like I learned in 2B at BBDC, 70/30 ratio. Ok mah.

 

Anyway I have narrowed my choice of tyres to these 4:

 

Michelin Pilot Road 2

Bridgestone BT016

Metzeler Sportec M3

Metzeler ME Z4

 

Any thoughts on tyres?

All the mechanics say to change the switch, so I got a feeling that they can't be bothered fixing something so small.

 

I think the fuse is fine, the brake light flickers a bit when I press the front brake, but it just didn't maintain lighting it. Like the contact point didn't contact properly, I get the mechanic to check the cable, but they say cable is ok. Dunno whether really got check or not.

 

So I really dunno what's wrong.

[vincekam]

I remember last time I have an exact same problem you have right here.

Use front brake to slow down bike while using right foot to lit up brake light.

 

I managed to get it solve after removing the seat cover and re-arrange the cables.

hmmm..........when engage rear brake,does it flicker too?

or is it jus with the front?

if the rear flicker too.then its the tail light

 

then if its jus the front and u still have contact but not sustainable...

it could be 1 or 2 stuff

 

switch or wires connections @ the front.

 

again...what year is yur monster?

[dinosaur]

Get Pirelli Diablo Rosso! now the yens high, so jap tyres are not v cheap either. I'll go for bridgestone of the 4 below, but then again for 50bucks more u can get Rossos!

Hey all,

 

Quick one. I'm looking to replace the wiring harness on my bike. Is ebay a good place? What are my options? Most of the harnesses sold on ebay are for 620s. Can it fit a 400?

 

Thanks guys!
