Everything seems so simple and frill-less when you ride a Multistrada! haha
Well congrats on the bike!

Not sure Army Green is the perfect Hainan Island Cruiser color....Would you consider giving the bike a paint job?
I've yet to see a JB with cool paint.

These sidecars have some "island flair" inspiration:

Congrats on receiving the new toy. Nice pics! The green background looks good!

Now I have seller's remorse.

I see that the "B-A" does indeed have a console power outlet ... and I am envious of the new ECU!

I think Motokai has been hanging out too much with those Uigh*rs in Fumin Lu, or maybe reading too much Bikeexif:

I was thinking about painting the JH600 Desert Tan, with a matt black frame..... or paint it "Safari" style like my now sold CJ 750

Already done, sorry! Milton already claims rights to the JH600 Desert edition (click for photo).

G'Day,

The last mod this basic army green JH600B needs is a fancy paint job, bought the bike as a no frills bike to trash around.... scratches, bullet holes and dings only add character to a army green bike! Easy to get spares in army green on the Big Island as the Army / Navy uses the same sidecar rigs down in the South.....

Now, did 200k's+ on the bike since I got my 15 days temp plate / rego on Saturday morning and it's a much better sidecar bike compared to CJ sidecars.
One issue came up last night coming home in the dark, seems the JH600B-A doesn't like to sit at idle speed for 2-3 minutes in front of the garage as the exhaust header starts to glow cherry red?! Anyone experienced this issue with JL JH600 bikes yet? Looks like the bike is running to lean sitting at idle......

Totally, totally agree!

exactly as my July 2012 JH600B-A, right on time between 2-3 minutes idling, red glowing exhaust headers are usually a sign of a lean running bike out timing out of whack.

hope 998S is right and should not really matter, anyhow, bike will be ridden as usual and will keep an eye on the glow.......
