| Welcome Slipsweep to the best SWing site on the Net. There's lots of information and people willing to help if you ever have a question on how to do something on the SWing.
I'm not even going to ask how you pronounce the name of your town. :lol!: |

| Welcome. There is/was another member here from Thailand, PICO-THAI. I forget what year SW he was riding but he had a sidecar mounted. That Thailand 'drives left' made it unfortunately necessary that the side car was attached to the left side too. So that caused all manner of misery when it came time to service the belt & 'transmission'.

| Hi Tim. Yes, I can imagine the headaches of a sidecar. My concern is getting spares here....lots of scooters but not big ones...SWings are not common. Some of the Honda Forza spares are compatible I believe, but not many. Maybe more luck in Malaysia for a replacement drive belt. |

| Howdy from the Piney Woods of East Texas where you don't see cactus and tumbleweed but hills, pine forests and lakes. How's the riding over your way? Do you have lots of countryside to ride through? |

If you aren't already aware of it there is a pretty decent Silverwing section in the SingaporeBike Forum: http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/showthread.php/325894-lt-Info-gt-Silverwing-400cc-600cc-Tech-Corner Be sure to check the link to the Silverwing archives in the 2nd post there. Scoobydoo is the Admin for the Silverwing stuff on the SBF Tim |

|  Joe welcome to the forum. Thank you for introducing yourself, often people overlook that. Are you near any of the quakes? If so you're in my prayers. |
