no no no no no a TA150 in black but nv take care with small saddle bag ............

Wonder if this is the same bike I see in SIM carpark whenever I go for class. The saddle bag brown colour one izzit?

 

The Sissy bar I want to get one with cushion, so that my pillion can lean back, or at least can let her feel more sense of security even if she dun lean back. I took off my rear box mahz. Then behind can put sissy bar bag also. Bigger and can put some more stuff.

yes it is possible, but, they do not have any stock sissybars. It's all customised.

if you have a drawing, they'll make for you, but 1-2pcs agent will be reluctant loh...

 

I'll try to persuade them, at the mean time, if have drawing or picture will be good.

so how much it cost to make a sissy bar??? wld love to have it...

Wah today really damn sian. wasted 5 hours at LAB waiting lor. Initially wanted to get wide handle bars. Quoted $30 lah. Then wait here wait there, go store, go workshop everything, in the end didn't fix up. Why? Mechanic say too wide and bar too big for phantoms. blaedy hell. I was there from arnd 12, then at 3 he say cannot fix.

I went back LAB in a rage and demanded my money back and they had the cheek to ask me to pay $5 for their service. What service! Then I demanded for a sissy bar. Alot of trouble and 2 hours later, finally fixed it up. Actually was really pissed already, but when I saw the sissys and the windrack, my anger like dissipated lor... lolx. quite nice. heex!

ah boy selling ... should be about 30 bucks per pair ...

the price should be inclusive of installation ...

rider's and pillion's might be abit different due to the mounting ...
