=======================

 

Headlight for phantom.

Well, I'm using the stock headlight with no modification.

Up to date I've never heard of any TA with stock headlight passed the inspection before.

But the inspector usually will close 1 eye and Pass it.

 

 

I have fail my first attempt of inspection

Reason ?

I have an additional footrest on my crashbar for highway cruising.

Even thou its folded up, the inspector still politely tell me that He cant pass me because of that. I have to remove the leg rest (lucky its removable type) on the spot before he award me with the certificate.

 

 

For those guys who have names on their numberplate.

there is no need for you to change back to the stock one.

Just use a black tape to cover across the number plate and you can pass through the inspection.

Yes, LTA will send you a letter for inspection yearly (depend on ur bike reg date)

It will notify you the dateline for u to go inspection.

 

Just visit to any VICOM of ur choice.

Go to counter and pay the 16bucks and you're ready to inspect.

Some cut too high until expose too much of the rear side of the tyre. Some are too low and don't provide enough ground clearence.

[Enotsol]

He poke something into the exhaust.. not sure whether he was testing physically whether there's any change to the pipe or the thing he use was an imaging device to see the interior

Can you roughly tell me how they inspect the exhaust?

Like they use some sound measuring device or stick something into it (just like NS Enlistment where they so call "SATAY" your arse hole.)

 

Please advise.

Cheers!

He just ask me start bike, then check the smoke.

He never do anything physically to the exhaust.

Hey guys, so have anyone of u pass inspection with the VTX headlight together with the fog light? thanks

[raphael]

if low beam not working but high beam working, pass?

[nivleK1985]

Must depend on overall one if I'm not wrong.

If only 1 or 2 fail ( not serious one )

Overall will still pass.

can use liquid paper & touch up on the missing stroke?

[arjen]

well, I dont think it's able to pass.

 

Use liquid paper or marker?

Can try.

 

 

But during road blocks, if uncle sam stingy he still can slap you with a $70 fine.

[Enotsol]

Don't use liquid paper.. later they say u tampering with the license plate

Just go to a shop that does the sign and ask to replace 'M' only.. Check out at the shop whether they can do it.

[arjen]

Just get a cheap new numberplate will do.

 

 

A Customise one with names cost $18/- at auntyshop.
