According to the owner, thunder weakness in the sector has a very visible foot small or virtually all forms that are not proportional, "was plump bony legs".



The choices are the feet of APRILIA RS125. besides the form of a futuristic and very luxurious look, this usage there is also another reason that is "light". Due to the foot of this cesspool was using aluminum alloy materials as base materials. Unlike the feet of local production of the majority still use the iron as a material.

While self-telescopic front has not been changed again, but with upside down Aprilia too. With the front discs have not been on the left again but moving on the right. Trus the question arises, how to read the speedometer thunder, if the disc had changed places, the automatic location of teeth follow-up nanasnya changed?. For this case the owner had to replace the reader system speed (speedometer) with digital rather than analog or needle system. By changing the digital speedometer which happened to use Speedo from Suzuki Satria F 150, also changed the location of reading. Not anymore with pineapple teeth in the front wheel speed sensor but placed in the front gear. This bike looks so futuristic and sophisticated added.
