QUOTE(scarxxx @ Mar 21 2018, 01:45 PM) Below are the questions you need to consider: 1. Do you need a comfort and quiet tyres or performance tyres? 2. Using back the stock rim or upsize the rim? 3. What tyre size you have in mind? 1. To tell u honestly i would prefer all 3 if possible but mostly what i feel is important is that it should be safe and also something quieter than my current silverstone 2. Stock Rims 3. Would prefer to keep the stock size but some mechs recommended me to increase the tire thickness(height)

I've got a question for those who drove pre-2017 update Iriz MT version before. Comparing against Persona MT, does the Iriz's clutch feels a little more springy while Persona's feels a little spongy?
I test drove my friend's Iriz 2016 today, it felt as if my clutch is softer.. How should I describe this? I guess it's easier to for our left leg during jam as it takes lesser effort to push the clutch in and lesser effort to hold the clutch at bite point as well.
For the H-fork portion, it seems that my friend's Iriz is smoother along the passage way until the end, where there's quite some resistance and at the end it will pop inside. So you get a clear feel of the gear is fully engaged.
On the other hand, the persona gear stick feel some not so smooth resistance along the passageway and when reach the end, there is no indication (of feeling) that I've reached the end. I slipped my reverse gear a few times initially because I wasn't aware that I didn't fully slot the gear into the reverse gear.

QUOTE(scarxxx @ Mar 15 2018, 08:39 AM) I swapped out the stock with a Sport Spring. You find the details of my mod here. hi, mind sharing how do you choose the spring, i have no idea about springs at all. i browse on lazada and lelong, some are so cheap like less than RM200, some like eibach cost like triple of what you are using. How to judge if a spring is good or not?

How to judge if a spring is good or not? I done lots of reading on feedbacks from FB group as well as looking only for reputable brand. Initially I was looking for Eibach but the seller is in Kedah hence I took ZerOne spring instead.

Goodyear Triplemax Assurance good enough, performance in dry and wet condition, road noise is acceptable. CC6 is abit lose in wet condition grip.
