guys, yesterday went jb change some stuff, one of it i wanted to mention were the makida twin rear shocks.

 

there are the 75-85rm versions and the 125-135rm versions. i opted for the 135rm ones, its thicker than the cheaper variant, way thicker than stocks, adjustable.

Performance wise, think its pretty good bang for the buck, doesnt bottom out over jb custom humps with my 70kg pillion. stability wise great too. just fyi i work in tuas, so i do pass alot of potholes etc, and it held up great.

 

As for durability, i cant vouch for it yet. afterall i did just changed it yesterday.

 

hope that answers some questions.

oh ya, btw i went all of ah gua lane to ask about the tank mod, apparently no one does it at all, on top of that, most of them have never seen one. they ask me use 1.5l mineral water bottle as spare fuel container.. ingenious, but doubt i'll do that in long run..

 

so guess its really down to bike fab with a 350 price tab, and whether its worth it..

Wish to ask 2 questions:

 

1) aftermarket shocks and aftermarket pillion footrest can pass inspection

 

2) based on your experiences, have anyone encountered authority stops that ask you to open your see for checking of u-box? LTA, ROV, inspection, Roadblocks, TP, etc.

- asking to see the viability in moding my tank.

 

 

Thanks.

Hi bro logen1836! Any chance i can tag along? Hoping you can share with me of gd lobang mah at JB;) xie xie ni...looking to get tyres and rims..shopping mode la...hahaha

 

No need sry bro..im the one asking u for a favour mah...by e way just saw u putting up yr "new" wave for sale?:( u have changed almost like the whole bike lei...what ride u eyeing for bro?

 

Hey bro. Your name sounds kinda familiar to me. Sounds like someone i know who stays in the eastside. Do you happen to live in Tampines near TPJC and used to ride a KRR?

 

Anyone encountered cracks on their Dunlop TT900 tyres?

My front tyre hv hairline cracks in middle of threads.....

 

Are your tyres' threads thinning? I ever encountered this. I think its normal wear and tear due to constant contact with hot road surface in the day and cold road surface at night. Makes the tyres expand and contract thus causing them to crack after a while. But usually happens when the tyres are balding. Usually i just change the tyres to avoid any problems. Cause the last time i ignored it and took a gamble, my rear tyre exploded, causing me to fishtail along AYE. Not fun at all.

Why so serious?

1) It actually depends on the inspector. From what I understand anything that does not come stock with your bike will fail inspection. But they usually close one eye when it comes to trivial stuff like those things you have mentioned. Again it depends on the inspector on duty.

 

2) From what I’ve heard, there were cases during roadblocks where they sometimes ask you to open your topbox or underseat compartment to check if you have any illegal items in your possession. Havent heard about checking for illegal mods though.

Why so serious?

dude, you have cracks on your rubber, might mean the rubber life is over.. its time to change a new set dude. cracking may be due to heat cycles, drying the rubber causing cracks.. aside from many other possible causes for it.. but all in all it means its time to change it.

 

It's a brand new tyres...thread still a lot....dunnoe y got it

U should check the 4 digit number located @ the side wall of the tyres.

Its LTA approved so okay to use.
