Your helmet lah...the one wif the cool visor(look like an import helmet). I also long time never see u. The last time i saw u on the road was long ago, u wif a gang of riders going toward the CTE, only u ride the RXK...

 

Sad to say there is no one-stop shop to find stock accesories and cosmetic accesories. U just have to source wat u want at neither shops at Lavender or Jalan Besar. Abt stocks, i think have to order. U can try go Hamilton Rd, near Jln Besar Stadium. There got 1 ah pek, maybe he could help.

 

Like i said, only the old n the bold ah peks noe the RXK inside out.

 

Btw, i'll be at the Esplanade tomolo at ard evening for the outdoor performance thingy. If u see me, 'layan' eh. Should i see yr bike at the carpark, i will drop u a note. i also need to source for accesories; need to change my 'gantung' and speedmeter.

 

Mine RXK is my only bike coloured gray wif red and blue stripes. Give me a wave should you see me on the road. Ciao!!!

[Lord Bear]

To all Kakis in this thread, pls post your RXK pics regardless mod or stock to be easier recognisable on the road. I do hope we will all meet one day to discuss our interest in this old bike. THANK YOU!!!

 

CIAO!!!

Alamak! $180!!! Too expensive for me.

 

I thought u go Cash Coverter buy cheap helmet and then remake it. I like the visor, but dunno where to buy. I also need to paint my current helmet to match my gray bike but dunno what colour.

 

Maybe try RockStone spray and fix wif metal studs.

 

Well guys i have a cool pic of a RXK from India. I call this Dirt RXK. Pls Comment!!!

[mightymike]

nice exhaust...

replace the basic rusty/not werking parts. like signal headlight, tailight, mudguard, bla bla.

 

keep it shiny and clean.... and VUOLA! u got urself a retro looking bike. unless if u hardcore. then go shop spray, go chrome.

[mightymike]

haha ok.

 

coz i just changed my front tyre and it looks slightly smaller than my rear tyre. Can't be the original one - damn small & ugly. Dunlop TT900 80/80 i think

[oneamong_thefence]

i use both 90/90 for my tyres.

 

i like it cause it looks 'solid'. and i feel its safer too.. hahah

yeah i agree! are you using Dunlop TT100s?

[ultimax]

For some strange reason, my sch's library has this manual:

 

http://www.whitehorsepress.com/images/products/large/h331.jpg

 

Yamaha RS/RXS Owners Workshop Manual

 

I've flipped through it and lots of sections, if not all, are applicable to the RXK as well. If you're interested in obtaining a copy, PM me. I'll zap one for you. Let me know if you want it ring-binded. It'll be abt $5, maybe more with postage and the binding.

[ultimax]

PM me if you want the manual. Gonna zap it soon!

[pish]

looks quite retro!

 

Is the rear wheel smaller than the front? or is it just the angle?

 

what's the fuel consumption like?

[oneamong_thefence]

haha ultimax u got 'fetish' for wheels ah? lol... ppl look at bike see other things u look at size of wheel... hahaha

 

anyway yes i use dunlop tt100 for both. but recently just change rear tyre to irc. and i tell u there is really a difference. u can really feel that irc got lesser grip.

 

anyway, just asking ah.. if for our bikes ah the wheel wanna do whitewall can just paint it on using paint marker? will it be as nice?
