BBDC - Anyone Taking 2B There?

[Vashie]

Hey hey! Gotten my phantom too!

On my way home lucky turn all the right turn so reached home safely~

But almost buang 2 times while turning...Really not used to phantom. Braking is also a problem for me too...very scared of stepping rear brake.

One month no ride bike...a bit lost touch. Today was really an experience!

 

Shunpo...you so fast try out U-turn already?! I don't dare...

[Shunpo]

lol. tried lots of stufs liao~ accidentally and not haha.

 

Went riding in highway for my first riding trip and go 120km lol. like still so fresh already wack liao .

 

I heard people saying that cornering with phantom can only be done as max around 60-70km. then when I was exiting the expressway, I geh kiang and went out at 100km. Can really feel the drift sia. Lucky on the right lane and behind got no vehicle. Or else I not typing here liao @_@

 

Also, just did a pillion (my brother) to amk for lunch xD Pillion someone is really scary.

 

But just 2 days of riding tried quite a couple of stuffs le ^^ Still alot more to learn about phantom.

[Vashie]

Went down just now...wanted to ride around a bit.

But realised...My right rear signal light not working! The previous owner went to change bulb and ask the person to check through before passing to me. Now I don't dare to ride my bike already.

Phantom is great. I ride that bike until I fall asleep, too comfortable!

[Vashie]

Signal light not working...cannot comfortable!

The signal light bulb blown? or check the fuse? or the switch not working?

 

[Vashie]

Bulb is new, got receipt to prove.

The right front signal is working, back signal is not.

I don't know what to do now...don't dare ride to motorshop

Then it's either the bulb didnt fix properly to the connector or wiring problem. i think you can fix that yourself rather than wasting a trip down to bike shop. It's quite easy though.

[Vashie]

I have absolutely no clue how to do it! I don't even know how to remove the signal light cover.

 

Sad...I think I will drop by unique motorsports at toh guan tomorrow...hope nothing bad happens to me.

Need to shorted date with girlfriend.

Don't be sad man, there's always a first time. Ride safety

I know the feeling when something is wrong with the bike, you juz wanna get it fix right away.

[Vashie]

Went downstairs with a screwdriver.

Took apart the signal light...almost couldn't put back the bulb!

Fiddle around a bit...but it's still not working.

[stanco]

congrats to the two new phantom owners.

 

dont know when then i can get my new bike.

 

vashie got your bike yet?

I got my phantom le =D

 

Hor lan my way to camp LOLs~ and return journey miss one exit, also hor lan LOL.

 

coz I stay in woodlands, I miss the exit to woodlands ave 3 and end up going till the johor custom XD got to get the securities to guide my vehicle out of the custom~ Somemore in army uniform

 

Sibeh blur sia~ Must ride more to familiarise the road.

 

Anyway, any tips on u-turning the phantom? I always wider turning sia (often turn and go very near to the left lane or cut into the left lane. )

 

I tried turning sharply before, but the footrest scrape the ground T_T

 

Oh ya, dont have much information about saddle bags around, but are saddle bags big enough for helmets? anybody have any idea?

 

Thanks =D

 

saddle bag is nice, but also prone to theft leh. people use penknife can cut open liao. anyway go to the phantom sub forum and look for madman. he got LOTS of stuffs for phantom. (that was last time lah.. now i not sure liao.)

 

for the u turn part, position your bike as left as possible, so you got more clearance to turn? worse come to worse, u turn usually done one at a time, so usually your left and right should be clear. can turn can liao lah. wide turning now wont get 2 DIPS point 1.

the bulb got from unique? if not just go any nearby motorshop also can get it done 1.

 

Went downstairs with a screwdriver.

Fiddle around a bit...but it's still not working.

 

since u take the bulb out liao, check if the filament is broken or not lor.

You really went down and open up!! Think you better leave it to bike shop to check. Haha. Better call them if they are open coz tml is labour day

[Vashie]

Oh ya! Tomorrow labour day.

Can't get anything done then...must let the bike rot in carpark already.

Unique is the nearest bike shop for me...extreme west like very little bike shops.

 

Just one signal light is enough to prevent me from riding the bike.

Today the seller called up up to apologise for the problem. He said he really look at the mechanic while the mechanic check through the signal light and it's working the few days after. The seller really is a nice guy, makes me don't even feel like blaming him.

I guess the bikes need to warm up before able to start up the signal. Gonna give it a try tomorrow.

 

Thanks Forestfly for offering to help.

Tomorrow I think I try calling up HKL book for appointment to check the light. They open on sunday!

u are lucky to meet such a seller..

No problem. Haha, ride safety especially you just get to know that bike! Cheers

Fell down at MSCP slope! Sian...now bike like got weird sound.

But the right rear light like magically works after a bit of riding. Means it's not the bulb problem.

WAH! Careful man. Up slope with half-clutch 1st gear. Yea but I think its the wire lose for the signal light.

 

Get use to your bike until u're confident then you enter the expressway.

Still rem my first day after I got my bike, my friends brought me to TPE expressway,

I was panicking and he even taught me how to squeeze in between cars at Orchard road, rawr.

My hands and legs went numb. =S
