I do agree with all of U regarding the stupid IRC tyres!!!
I change my to Perillis (I think that is how it spell ...nvr check).

Very good in gripping and very good in picking up speed due to the good grip. Affordable too.

I change both of the tyres at LAB for $140.. I waited for abt 3hrs... erghh..... Smile

The tyres have since then serve me well and very happy with it as I have experienced a few sharp turnings which the IRC will definitly fail to accomplish..

Still ...warning for everyone... Do not take everythings for granted... Slow down if U think there is danger upfront... esp when raining... REMEMBER... Slipper when wet..... hehhe Mr. Green

Bluegazer SG

Ayah.. ThanX! Chong Chong.. must U rub it on!!!?? Crying or Very sad ...
Me bang balls already loh... Embarassed
but OK lah... since I manage to get the tires change.. Laughing

Look on the brighter side... Mr. Green

hey not to rub it on... just want to let the fellow phantom riders know abt this... frankly, i dont really feel that lab is always the best place to shop... the tires are not from labs. further more u have to wait 3 hrs for the things to get done where for my case, the place where i fix the tires got no souls around.. funny rite..

Bluegazer SG

hehe.. I do understand. Very Happy What to do?? Confused .. I am a new rider and dun have much bikers kaki leh... Most of my friends r not riders so only go to famous store recommended in the net.
In fact I also agree w what U said abt LAB.
Only best if we were to buy those buy-and-moved items but when come to those buy-and-install items... which we r required to go to their workshop.. the waiting time cannot make it lah... TOO LONG liao....

I think I still need more recommendation..
Do any of U, fellow bikers have any recommandation?? Best if U know the Boss or any of the ppl working inside.. hehe Laughing Then I can use Ur name to get some discount?? or we can go together?? Wink
Well... Like any bikers' aim,... hope to have a reliable place to do our regular shopping...

daniuge SG

tell us the place lah, then we all go there lor Mr. Green tio bo? since nobody, somemore so cheap, but maybe once you announce liao, that place crowded liao lor Wink

Mr. Green heehee mayb u all can try the bikeshop behind safra in the industrial pk named power wheels the boss short short skinny skinny one. his tyres come in bulk so he can sell cheaper than others. must bargain abit oso lah coz bos like to chop ppl head hahahaha

chong chong SG

its at lavendar street 219 motor shop... 116 dont need to bargain i guess. rain coat is cheap there those VR1, the shop u can easily spot with a big helmet infront of the store. normally only can see a malaysian and a uncle. the boss around will ask u if u want to do this or that. just ignore him lah... uncle not bad just ask what ever shit question and he will talk non stop........ Shocked

Streetwise SG

Good info....will try...btw, do u know whether the shop does chain/sprocket change....and how much?........tks...... Smile

Streetwise SG

Question I thought manual states 200 only for front/rear??

WhitePhantom SG

the digital pumps are not accurate at all...
if u press 200, the actual is only 185-190
last time when i using IRC, i pump 220 front n 245 rear...
i feel that pump harder got faster acceleration, so i continue pumping more n more. now new tires i pump even harder

InSPirE78 SG

Question too hard wont burst easily meh??

WhitePhantom SG

not so easily lar.... Wink
unless u pump more than 300

Streetwise SG

Like that, use pressure gauge lah.........I understand it's dangerous to overinflat tires as there will be less contact bet road and tires.......esp...rainy days...lagi more dangerous....my 1/2 cent...correct me if I'm wrong......

chong chong SG

Rolling Eyes agree........ if over inflate, bike vibrate more with uneven roads....

WhitePhantom SG

yup i agree
have u guys ever experience this:
u go past an uneven surface like hole, small hump, manhole cover. after u pass it hard, ur wheels feel very loose. the feeling is like gonna skid anytime....

InSPirE78 SG

Very Happy but i knw that time i pump too hard till rainy days or go pass metal things i tend to skid abit....then i quickly let out some air and the prob is gone....

Streetwise SG

U lucky.........or else the road would hve `fresh coating'....lolz......

I believe in keeping to mfr specs.......safer.......

InSPirE78 SG

Mr. Green ya....nw my tires front n rear either just nice or abit less of air...after those nearly incidents i dun dare liao...

Streetwise SG

Good for u......no `accidental' tattoos...... Mr. Green
