Yea, I heard of threadlock glues, but problem is, some of the glues are not heat resistant, so not a really good idea for the screws near my exhaust.

 

As for riding the DNA, in my humble opinion it is a really easy bike to ride, just that it can get a little wobbly at high speeds. Yeah, it might take sometime before you want to pillion, he he, I was pillioning people after 2 weeks! But of course not my girlfriend. Only pillion people I "don't like so much"! Kidding only! And ever got people fall off the back of my DNA! Because the DNA seat got no sissy bar, and the hand grips are under the seat (some of my friends cannot reach), so he never grab anything, when traffic light turn green, cheong ah, he he he....

 

One more thing, if you have not riden a bike for a long time, best to treat your bike like a car for awhile and not squeeze in between traffic, stay to the centre of the lane, cause alot of my friends did that and they kanna people's mirror, one of my friend's on a Kup Kia knocked off a Mercedes SLK mirror, don't know if he is paying through his teeth?! He just had his license for 3 days!

 

Cheers...

Same company that makes the treadlock do have a product that you can use in places that gets hot I use it on my car`s manifold or you can use bit of heat resistant silicon that should help bolts getting undone by vibration

BTW all, there's this immaculate gray (rare) DNA I saw sometime back at cineleisure.. Never got the chance to put a note to invite the owner here.. Shame..

 

PS: the humble little blue dna at the background is mine..

Hmm....taking up the centre of a lane, one must also constantly look in the rear view mirrors....

 

Cos there are many drivers who like to tailgate and squeeze you out, as if road space entitlement is according to road tax amount. :mad:

Dammit! Yesterday go ride my friend's Yamaha X1, haha, tempting! So cheap to pump full tank! Ha ha, anyway, just out of curiousity, how often you guys do oil change?

 

Cheers...

Well, I'll be changing mine during regular maintenance at 3,000. I've heard people say it's not really necessary at 3,000??

Hehehe, ok, I will remember to tighten the screws! As for the KKFC, we will meet at 20:30pm?

 

Hmmm, Ran, you did the transfer of the DNA on 10thOctober 2005 at Tai Hin motors right? If so, you missed me by about 10 or 20 minutes as I met the seller, was there to put on the exhaust pipe!

 

Cheers...

 

JTWL, where you work by the way ah?

Heyz,

Chua, you care to tell us where you saw the other DNA getting it's GPR zorst? Was it you saw it at STA? Ha ha, because to me, I find it easier to win 4D then for 2 DNA's to get the same pipe on the same day! Kidding only lahz!

 

Hmmm, JTWL, gonna be hard for me to carry your seat on that day, as I will be pillioning people, how about on the day, just swing by my place after work? Sounds good bro?

 

Stroker, I was just wandering, is it the norm for the bike to vibrate quite badly at low speeds? Like riding below 20km/h?

 

Cheers guys!

Not Threadock la.. The brand is Loctite.. Its very good.. Its a type of threadlock glue.. But the prob is it dries up very fast.. So chances are yr bottle will be gone by the time you had a 2nd usage for it.. Another alternative is using lock-nuts.. That'll prevent it from vibrating loose... I just too lazy to be bothered with something as mundane as a number plate (?!?!?)

 

Cheers

Hmm... then maybe Daniel should get one and when we meet up for the outing. Can pass on to do the rest of the DNAs. That way, it will make full use of it. Haha... :smile:

Cheers guys!

Like Ive been discussing about this many many posts back... Ive came to the conclusion that its the power delivery of the pipe that causes the jittery... Cos when I changed back to stock, everything's ironed out. Like Ive said b4 too, the GPR gives a much better throttle response low down, so it makes it harder to ride, cos the power is more raw..

 

Got it?
