I got a pretty good deal for a Shark full face helmet some months back from Motoworld... website: Motoworld I quite like it although I hard use it.

 

As for jackets, check out Regina and Motoworld.

 

It's good habit to wear full face helmet and jacket and jeans when you ride.

 

I just gave away my air mesh jacket to my sister, thinking of getting another one. We can go shopping together if you want. PM me.

That´s all

There's 1 bike lot nxt to the rubbish centre, nid to put parking coupon. Thats the nearest. If want to park freely, there's another lane by Lorong Mambong, nxt to coffeebean(if i rmber correctly), though it leads to a dead end, turn left & u might c a small lane, can park there oso.

one more question...

Normally when you go down to the lower deck in MSC via the slope, which gear do you engage? Say normal day, no rain.

Do you know there's a 2-story hawker centre on the left? Turn left before the market, and you'll find a bike parking lot on the right just behind the hawker centre... do put coupons if you're going LAB for a certain timing cos there always got summon officers. Aft you park, just walk straight(not the direction your bike went in), cross the minor road and to your left in...

I think its using bolts & pin and not bolts & nuts, do check again if I'm correct...

Bike? Mmm... I'm referring to the footrest leh...

[kaikai83]

I am driving a TA200. Past few mths when i try to start my bike, normally i just have to press the starter button once, but these 2 days i have press the button for more than 1 time and sometimes have to hold for a longer timing. Is it that my battery is going to die? or is it time to replace spark plug? Fyi, i have not change these items before after i took over the bike 3mths ago. Please advise. Thanks.

I can't confirm on the rider's footrest. But when I changed my pillion footrest, its bolts(w/o thread) and pin. Just have to straighten the pin and pull it out using plier...

Ya, they dun give you those things one, just use back the ones you dismantled...

 

Check and see on the orginals on how its been installed before you dismantle and make sure you dun break the pin, if not, you'll have diff time looking for one unless you're in a motordiam...

just a suggestion... go for a full service.

[niqyap]

ya at the very least change ur spark plug. 3 months abt time liao

[buttbutt8]

Norm ppl change spark plug once every twice changing of EO. But again, could be batt weak also. And one of the obvious clue to weak batt is that horn will be weak too! Hope that helps.
