MERGED THREAD

Topic : Aftermarket forks for wave S

Description : Nil

 

********************************************************************

 

Hey guys, i know many ppl here have aftermarket forks installed. I was wondering what's the difference between the USD and conventional ones as well as price. Does it make any difference at all in handling or still the same? anyway which shop in jb can fabricate a better bracket for brembo brake caliper? I got one spare, supposed to install on a stolen ver s., but the whole bike is stolen so the caliper i bought is now laying around at home so i figured maybe i could use it.

Suggestions?

but mikuku, the can 4 show

upside down never mind

Hi guys,

 

i'm a newbie here who had just got my wave R. Have been reading here bout the original rear suspension is very soft, wears off in a short while, difficulty in cornering. Is it true?

 

read bout this mikuku brand and where can i buy it locally cheap? Can we do the installation ourselves?

 

Hope the experts here can give some advice.

 

Thanks alot.

 

Rgds.

It's called Biker's DIY or something similar although it's related to Chong Aik.

Remember to bargain there always to get the best deals.
