      Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

      • Rear Shocks

        Any one facing problems with rear shocks dipping much under load ? I find my bikes rear dipping much under my weight when compared to other bikes..

              I am in to biking nearly after 10 months after my crash. My bike is just 14 k. Died so soon. If its just 1700 bucks, i dont need to plan much for replacing it. But now for some time i am going to ride my bike like a paint polish guy. So any news on HIDs and projectors

                Crash! Is there a thread on that?
                14k even with aggressive track riding seems unreasonable man! but yeah 1700 is what made me laugh when I purchased it I was expecting a bigger bill! Heck my RTRs shocks are pricier than this!

                You are on the right thread for Paint Polish HID Projector queries!

                Whatever you do, DO NOT try to search for that term on this thread

                  I always wear a Lid. After these Photoshoot days . Even that was a road side shot, may be 10 metres that i had ridden without a LId.

                    Ahem Ahem..No threads on it,though there were a couple of Xbhpian in the track when it happened and also a couple of pics me smiling in pain after the crash

                    And you are right, i tried searching reg HID and projectors in the thread, but heck, half a day of work time is gone . My friend had installed a chinese HID kit for 3.2 k for both the low and hight beam set up including installation. He is so noob that he even doesnt know what is the wattage of the HID. Hope he doesnt come across this thread.

                              So this change is basically the whole front end, including the headlight surround panel? excuse my ignorance, i'm new to biking If it is then it's great news, I managed to scratch the headlight surround, during my first fall (at 0kmph)

                              As for the mirrors no idea, HID projector kits are available at many accessory shops, you may struggle to find anything less than 6000k (colour temp) I have been quoted 6k for a pair of bi-xenon projectors locally with colour temp of 6000k including fitting (Chinese aftermarket kit), maybe you will have more choice in Chennai than I have in Goa. Thinking of going for it, as the stock set up is really bad.

                              I have the old red colour, I enquired at a SVC today, they didn't have any knowledge of it, then finaly they admitted they had received news of it, but haven't started with the change, I didn't have the bike with me though, might take it to a different SVC tomorrow if I have time and check over there.
                              Beware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!
                              More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread eaters !
                              Statistics show that more than 75 % of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread !
                              Bread is known to be extremely addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water, actually begged for bread after just two days !
                              Bread has been proven to kill. Scientists have now uncovered alarming evidence that 100% of the people who eat bread will eventually die !

                                No wobble at any speeds. neither swaying to any side when the bars are let go of.

                                They're putting the old matt fairings on the older colours. I don't have the old coloured bike but a friend does and he got it changed.

                                Sorry bro you're out of luck. The only plastic part that they are not changing is the headlight cowling.

                                Take off the chain and dip it overnight in kerosene/diesel.
                                A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.
