Yo Bro Vince,

 

*Screws will have to buy yourselves.

 

*DIY Session can be arranged but after i sought out Screws for the Engine area to make it a more benefits out of a single lesson.

 

*It should be below SGD$10.

 

*It's 1am and you didn't see me at Bedok MSCP, sorry as i got some stuff to attend to.

 

Sorry for putting it bluntly......Guess i wasn't Funny enough......

 

Cheers Bro!

 

 

Yo Bro ProDero,

 

Go get the SCREWS Mann if you can't wait up! Else, stay tune for phase 2 on the Engine Screws!

 

Cheers Bro!

Galanted > Wanna do a screw change for my 999?

[blackreplica]

Galanted nice job! definitely something i can look to do when i get bored! The pics were great too

[blackreplica]

On another note, has anyone here had the guts to do a tail chop mod? I checked out the underside of that ugly rear piece that sticks out, doesnt look to difficult. my only concern is finding a saw that is capable of making good clean cuts to the frame...anyone have any suggestions? I plan to cut the frame off to just in front of the signal lights attachments (so i dont have to relocate them) and simply attach the licence plate to the bolts holding the signal lights in place.

[900despairmonster]

Yo BlackReplica..

Lai Lai Lai ! If you are keen then you will have to drop by my place twice. First time to take out and measure every single screw and second time to replace them with the new s/s screws..... Second time will be way faster than first. On second thoughts, why not we all arrange a screw change session near town whereby we all can get together, at the same day measure your screws, purchase them and change them up at the same day! Extending my invitation to all DUKERS! First i got to invest in better Allen Keys........

Hi blackreplica,

Yes, I'm ready to game for a tailchop since I have high mount my exhaust already. Will be ordering this item soon:

http://www.1tail.com/sa/cart/detail.asp?pg...E-8767EC7C6721}

 

But something stops me from doing the tailchop because I heard many remarks that it'll flick water from the back after tailchop. But I still have not a comfirm yet. Should we do it? yes/no ?

 

Cheers!

 

Galanted > Please include me to your "screwing" thing. I want to screw.. I want to screw...

Will copy you in on any updates! I SCREWED mine liao! Now my P***S hurts! (what you thinking = P***S = PALMS hor!) Kekeke!

 

BTW, Bro Vince, could you not place an order for the Eliminator first provided if with your contacts, do you think you can actually borrow a pc of it from anyone you know so that i can get it custom locally. As i was in the Hardware Industry before and my Contacts with Fabricators and Engineering Firms, i believe i can get it done for less then $100/pc in Stainless Steel.

Go to My Controls, then look for avatar then upload the pic you wanted in! Ta Da! Solved!

[blackreplica]

yo vince,

 

That tail chop kit looks real good man! However, it looks like it may not work on my bike, cos the signal lights location is very different on my '98 M400. In particular, the signal lights on my bike stick out a lot more than in the pic from that website (its under the brake light instead of behind it), which means i can't cut away as much frame without relocating the lights first although at first glance it doesnt seem like a big deal. But for sure my frame will still be visible, sticking out a few inches if i were to chop the tail. with the one you linked, the frame is completely gone. Would this kit work on your bike?

We are all 98' MonstaS Bro! There is a bend plate with a hole for you to re-position the signals.

 

Cheers!

Some I saw are quite badly done or looks weird.   Anyway, need to be creative and daring to try it out. Main concern is still flicking of water onto back of shirt.. Not too sure.   Cheers!

[blackreplica]

Vince>> I don't think that water flicking onto the back of your shirt is going to be a problem as long as the mudguard stays but i could be mistaken here. So you ordered the tail chop kit? If you are willing, perhaps you could send me a PM when it arrives so i can meet up with you and maybe i could help you get the thing fixed up and at the same time can see the net effect for myself. if it really looks good i may order a set for myself too.

[contacted]

Just came back from getting the screws. Went to the shop GalanteD specified, the uncles there were abit hesitant to help me out. All small quantities mah... but talk talk abit, chin chye chin chye abit, managed to get all the screws listed. *phew* But other hardware shops with tons of screws/bolts/nuts type should also do.

 

Poped by Chong Aik also to get my helment fixed too.

 

Now have to rest... abit sick

 

Vince> might not be able to make it tonight.

Bro 900despairmonster,

 

I'm gonna place order online. Last time they quoted me est US$111 + $35 shipping = USD$146.00

 

I was wondering how long your bro-in-law can *smuggle* in the item?

If it's not too long, I'll like to get in touch with you and seek your help in the mention item.

 

Cheers!

Yo Vincekam..

 

the last time i ordered my shades(Diablo-Smith).. The shipping charges is based on US not Worldwide.. (Cheaper in a way).. Btw it took arnd 2-3wks cos cumming to Christmas mah.. sometimes a mnth.. (Sometimes..)

 

No need to "smuggle" wan.. Cos he is posted here so w'ever mail he gets in US will be shipped here tru his mail box here.. bt i must inform him wt item/slah.. if nt later the US Army postmaster might ask him.. Just some acknowledgement so that he knows wt item/s is coming in his mail box..

 

No worries man.. Jz Buzz/PM wen u want cos i need to giv his add.. if not how u can get it ship? Correct?
