gmoh...where u get ur side mirror?

 

Oh I got it at regina, but that was when LAB didn't have it. I believe they have it now, I think I saw it the other time. I THINK. Yeah haha.

 

got ur cafe seat..? u importing bar frm where..?

the speedo comes with chrome mounting cup.. or whole set chrome..?

macro on the dial.. & the brand too.. if any.. sry i arrow u so many qs.. more suspense better.. kekeke

 

Yeah I sent it to one of those saddlery shops to rewrap my seat and also to add the cafe hump at the back. I might be importing the bar from the states, see how it goes, because it's cheaper than welding.

 

Only the mounting cup is chrome, ahaha kk I'll go take some close-up pictures. I'll probably upload em later in the evening!

[gmoh]

Ok here are the pictures of my speedo and mirror.

I'm not sure about the speedo actually, the previous owner sold the bike to me with it aha. As for the mirror, I got mine for 20 bucks. Don't know how much LAB selling though.

 

Haha I also want my bike to be there, but currently having some problem with two of the screws, the '+' became like 'o', so I can't remove my handle bar lol. Any idea?

[drone]

i saw ur bike at esplanade carpark...u park infront of me...im riding a cg...nice bike u got there...at ur fork got the rubber thinggy...how much u got it?plus service charge...

Oh so that was yours!! Nice seat bro! Eh then your pillion how ah? Comfortable not? Actually the other day I saw you at the wheelock carpark also, you were pillioning a lady right? I parked mine inside liat towers.

 

Oh the rubber tubing thingy huh, 20 bucks for the rubber. As for the service charge, I'm not so sure cos I did it together while changing my engine oil and abit of servicing here and there. I don't know if the hamilton uncle still has it or not, I got it there and when I fixed mine, I saw only one. He may still have stock inside? That I'm not so sure...

 

Nice meeting your bike though!

i think its similar to the gauge i'm eyeing.. heheh

for +o.. if not so bad.. can try use impact screw driver..

in extreme cases.. need to go to ur friendly neighbourhood welder..

 

urs still gt hope.. i had so many rusty blunt allens.. all no angle.. blocked within fairing & frame..

i almost give up.. for the week i slowly sprayed r7(cheapo wd40).. span of light hammer & beatings..

then miracle happened.. i can see the light... hahaha... 1 fine day all loosened up.. with some effort of course...

Impact Driver

 

The best remedy for a stuck screw, or one whose head has been stripped, is the impact screwdriver. An impact screwdriver is essentially two weights held apart by a spring. The bottom one holds screwdriver bits. You smack the top one with a hammer. In between them is a spring and a circular ramp. The ramp makes the bottom weight with the bit in it turn. So when you hit the top weight, giving it momentum, it compresses the spring and hits the ramp which turns the screwdriver-bit-holding bottom weight. The beauty of the design is that the force you impart to the impact wrench by hitting it with the hammer is forced into the screw, helping the screwdriver bit bite into the screw head (or what's left of it). Most impact drivers will let you set them for left and right turning, to loosen or tighten screws.

 

The high-quality, hardened screwdriver bits that come with impact drivers usually fit the screw heads much better than even the best screwdrivers, which helps all by itself. So at the first sign of a recalcitrant Phillips head screw, reach for the impact driver! Impact drivers are commonly available and cost about 15 (American) dollars - check your local auto supply store.

 

Some cheap impact drivers have (relatively) stiff springs which require a heavy hammer to compress and get the ramps to turn the bit. Be warned that the force needed may be damaging to the assembly in which the screw is stuck, or may be difficult to counteract on an awkward piece. These impact drivers can benefit from being disassembled and having the springs shortened slightly (no more than 25 percent) to reduce the spring preload. After this modification the driver will not require as much force but may not work quite as well on really badly buggered screws.

 

can read more methods here.. hehehe

the cheapest way is to use a mini hack saw, saw a ( - ) on the screw... if it is exposed.. then use a large ( - ) screw driver and lots of wd40 to remove.. u might need a hammer as well..

first u need to drill a small hole in the middle of the bolt... then insert this,

 

note that the screw grooves are reverse.. means when you loosen it normally.. ( anti clock wise) it will tighten and grip the bolt... and use a small open end spanner to loosen the bolt (anti clockwise) , they will all come out without any problems..

[gmoh]

Wah thank you to all the bros here for the tips! looks like i need to go do abit of sawing and knocking aha. Eh easy, what bike is that in your signature pic? From the side covers it looks like a super4 but with a modified tail light, is it?

Haha no la I didnt buy anything, I went to a motor shop and borrowed their tools. I told the fella I didn't wanna trouble him, I can do it myself, just hand me the tools. Then he pass me this erm... Something like a screw driver drill bit kinda thing? Then he asked me to knock till there's some kinda groove. Then he helped me use the plier to don't know turn here and there ah lol. After which I could un-screw the thing out already.

 

Eh nice ah the sevenfifty, then now no more?
