the flat-head ones i install are super bright, the ones im selling look more like the stock blubs, but they are green.

 

U can go hunt for bright ones at Sim Lim Tower. Yours is the one that looks like a small egg right? Just a bulb by itself?

 

brighter ones has a flat head, and the LED not visible. but do note, it is brighter but the light is more spread out unlike the stock pole lights. so people see a fierce bright red but the red will probably not be cast on the walls.

 

TP will come after u for changing the bulb?

hmmm.. yup.. mine not casted on walls.. so i find it quite dim due to that.. but i dun think that ppl see a fierce bright red light as well.. haha

mine is 4 reali small bulbs together in each socket.

 

  weswes said:

for your super bright ones.. did u have to install any additional items into your headlamp? or just plug in can already?

 

i think yours might be the same as mine.. flat head with 4 ultra tiny leds on the flat surface? that is the brightest of its kind at 1.5 watts already. i think there are 3watt ones as well at SLT. They even have ones that looked like a tiny LED durian.. i'm guessing thats their wide angle LEDs..

 

no additional items to be added. just plug and shine..

u dun have to look for 220cc disc brake.. u can just get any rear brand rims with disc brake and replace your current rim. than u need to get the brake pump, brake hose etc..

speaking of EO, anyone tried to feel the diff btwn maxima 15W50synth and the 20W50 semi-synth? Cuz david at UM advised me to go no thinner than 20W50 semi-synth, can't remember his explanation why better to not use full synth. what's the noticable diff? smoother/rougher engine sounds? Easier shifting?

  wavy said:

cos your bike is new Orleng, cannot use too thin oil else it will not run in the engine properly... i suggest sticking to at least a w50 even after your 2000km run-in.. i'll probably wait for 10k km before i switch to other oils for fun

It's not abt whether it's 15W50 or 20W50 (which makes no difference anyway for tropical climate like ours). It's abt whether it's semi-syn or fully-syn. If u're still breaking-in ur engine, u should actually use mineral oil instead (which is thicker than semi- & fully-syn EO) for the 1st 2400-2500km. Semi- & fully-syn EO are more 'slippery' than mineral oil, causing the piston rings to not seal completely during the break-in process. After breaking-in, u can use semi- or fully-syn EO, the recommended grade for Pulsar being the 20W50.

 

  wavy said:

are you guys talking about the newer or older version of drymaster? the older version seems a lot thicker and more problematic in folding. the newer version seems too thin in my opinion. my $30 ProRacing rain jacket is thicker than that.

 

and i suppose 1 year is alright since its about $50 now. but limited sizes.

Older version cos I dunno how the newer version looks like. Seems difficult to fold cos thick and new mah, not 'seasoned' yet. How much is the new Drymaster? U sure the thin one is the new Drymaster? Cos my old Rainbuster had the word 'Rainbuster' printed on the left chest pocket but also had the word 'Drymaster' printed on the left sleeve.

pirated? joking joking..

 

its the sales lady tell me, i wouldn't know how to differentiate between the 2 versions of Drymaster or Rainbuster anyways as i have not seen them beforehand. I saw the Drymaster stitching on the sleeve also.. rofl

 

the new Drymaster is not that thin.. but thinner than the older version and iirc, theres no hood but has a higher collar. and the newer Drymaster is still thicker than Rainbuster

Alright, cool, thanks man bro, was just wondering if any diff. think i'll stick w 20W50 semisynth then. My UG2 2nd hand, but gasket sealant looked new when i got it, so dunno if they got replace piston ring or anything. oh wells, will stick w e recommendations.

this is the exact model that motoworld is selling, or rather, it's the one i just got from em on fri, dunno what the old one looks like, but like wavy said, yea, no hood for this. and definitely thicker than rainbuster, sorta like slightly more supple than army goretex i feel. very comfy for sure, cuz just left motoworld start raining, haha. immediate testing.

IMHO, develop a riding/driving six sense is a must. just to share...

 

1) Know you bike dimension.

1.1) the width distance of your handle bar...

1.2) the length of your bike....

1.3) The actual spot of your bike where vehicle enter and disappear

from your mirror (blind spot)

1.4) The estimate actual distance of a vehicle appear in your mirror.

2) Know your bike capability

2.1) know the response timing of you bike at every gear...

2.2) Know the pickup response of your bike

2.3) Know your rpm at what speed...

2.4) Know the cornering capability of you bike

2.5) Know your bike braking distance (front, rear and engine brake)

 

After you know your bike and your own riding skill... is time to observe other

road users.

 

3) Alway observe at the car behaviour in front of you....

3.1) Observe the behaviour will let us rider anticipate wat the driver trying

to do.

3.2) Some driver never turn on signal light when switching lane.

3.3) this list is very long if i would to list out all the behaviour... try observe yourself.

 

4) Alway keep an awarness of your surrounding

4.1) Front , side and rear...

4.2) alway look at the rear mirror, any vehicle coming at top speed or in

a funny manner, AVOID them by staying far far from them.

4.3) This will help you lookout for TP also...

 

above is some of the basic thing... well anyone can either improve it or forget it. just to share...

 

When going in between car... use the 3 second rules.... CLEAR them by 3 second.... dun go in between car and maintain speed together with them... you died fast.

 

Cheers

Nemesis

 

 

keep a close lookout for pedestrians as well!

especially SOME foreign workers who do not obey traffic rules, amaking sudden dash onto the road.... really dangerous for them as well as riders/drivers ( wan to siam den ownself kena). cannot totally blame all of them as thats their road culture back in their cty so best is to be careful of them.

 

i can haf 1 chinese woman riding her bicycle crossing the pedestrian crossing despite seeing me coming and the traffic light on my favour ( NORMAL ).

 

cheers.

Right i'll take note of it. Its just that my route from UM back to hougang (without going thru expressways) would include going through farrer road, lornie road. And because i drive there often in my car i know the kind of traffic that freqeunts these roads.

Now no longer in my safe zone of 4-doors and a boot+bonnet. Its going to be on hell of an experience.

I followed that route back home as well, i stay at the uppthomson end of amk ave1, don't forget the metal plates at the roadworks along farrer road! The MRT station u/c there, road winds here n there, beware of idiot drivers who cross all over the place. And if raining, all i can say is, those plates won't be fun.

  wavy said:

which colour u bought ah orleng? no orleng colour wo...

 

actually, wanted to! i like orleng until at one point of time i wanted to get a KTM, orleng, naturally.

 

motoworld didn't even have yellow, but they had a close cousin, red. so i stuck with the grey one in the end. the last XL grey. they only have grey, blue, red.
