use batalx lor super good man compared to dunlop cos dunlop tt900 is made in thailand i using batalax grip is good....durabilty so so lor...depend on how far u run lor...when ur tire warms up already....then the grip increases also very good...corner no need scared...i also corner until bua ka ta one..lol:cheer:

Wave's ka ta so low, just corner a bit can bua liao...no big deal...:cheeky:

 

anyway, i don't think that the battlax u mention comes in 80 front and 90 rear, which is the larger width tyres, rite? Thai TT900 also not so bad, if fact, if u wanna say bad, the worst is the stock IRC tyres.

SO many people want to mod their wave to be 'POWERFUL'.

My reminder to your guys...is to always remember the basic design of the Honda wave is to be CHEAP,ECONOMICAL,SIP PETROL, RELIABLE.

 

Of course you can MOD your wave as you wish. But the power gains are not going to be fantastic. Most likely, your mod will only make your bike more powerful than the next waves beside you at the red light junction. However, your wave will still lose out to the Yamaha125z, RXK, KKR, SP, etc...

 

Ok..here come the MOD for wave.

1) Remove the air filter completely, don't even bother to use K&N foam filter. Just leave the air inlet completely clear.

2) Change the carburator to a bigger one. Remember to tune it properly.

3) Change the rear sprocket to a bigger one, more teeth. It will increase your acceleration power off the red light sprint.

4) Reduce all unnecessary weight on your bike, remove the basket, remove the givi box, remove the tool kit, remove the two mirrors, remove the fairing, remove the battery(use kick start), remove the kick start pedal(use push start), remove the rear passenger foot pegs, remove the silver hand-hold on the seat, stick with original rims(lighter than sport rims).

5) Upsize your piston to 150cc(can be done in JB easily)

6) Openup your exhaust pipe. Change to a sport one if got money.

 

Last of all...go exercise your body and slim down as much as possible, to reduce the weight the bike has to carry everyday.

 

Good luck guys.

eh.....

 

nobody care to explain abt modding the engine part yet??

 

why everyone tokking abt rims??? :sian:

my fren got change the excel three sport sport rim.. i will ask him c if he rem the price.. :cheeky:

 

me use dunlop tt900 tire.. feel not bad lo..

 

but michelin pilot abit fast fin leh.. got one fren work as despatch very fast fin liao.. me also everyday on the road run ard go place do servicing oso not so fast fin leh... :cheeky:

 

its juz up to u which one u feel comfortable or nice lo... :cheeky:

Momo,

 

my little experience more than 10 years ago, when i was riding ?TZR125, the Dunlop TT500 tyres were soft and comfortable. But about a year's plus need to change liao...

 

I tried Michelin(dont noe wat model) can last more than 2 years, but every bump can feel, probably the tire is harder than Dunlop.

 

I wouldn't mind going for TT900. How much does it cost, may i know?

 

What is your current sports rim like? If the design is to my liking,

i may consider buying it from you.

 

As for my rim preference, i saw a Honda Excel rim, if i m not wrong is 5 "spoke", but the "spoke" is not the straight type(which is quite commonly seen on the road), but rather it is curved. The colour is black and "chrome/steel". I've seen it once in Clementi.

 

I m keen for this Tuesday, but i can only confirm on Sat/Mon cos my wife will be delivering any days now... If she delivers on Tues, cannot go liao....:slapforehead:

 

cheers!

And the songless through him burst into melody.
