didn't know that you wearing small size...

are the sizes ang mo sizes or asian sizes?

 

Locally made, so it's asian size ... normal rain coat good to wear baggy size but since this is armoured rain coat, the armour should be at the correct placement thus need tight fit. I did try M size, but the armour for elbow and shoulder a bit too low. Reason to have tight fit is to ensure the amour cushioned the fall especially the shoulder and elbow area.

For the pants, I wear L size though.

 

Overall rating ..

 

Up for the safety measures and as windbreaker

Down for storage as it used up the whole left side box for a pair and durable on wet day (as expected the neck area at the back is exposed, at times water drip in from the helmet)

Anyway I don't regret buying it .. it's still worth it.

 

Imho RS Taichi Dry Master is still the best when comes to wet day, be it when riding or not. I've tested it many times riding in heavy rain, it's 99% dry.

Storage, I can put 2 or even 3 pairs in 1 side box. My regrets for using it as windbreaker cos it's not meant for it. Use it ONLY on wet day .. do remember this... it save your wallet longer.

[mjbs64]

no problems.

how is it so far? im dam tempted to buy .

 

any cons?

 

 

haha .. everything is not perfect lah. There's always up and down .. just like our bike.

Btw there is no pockets to keep your small items but at mentioned earliear there's a zip for air flow.

haha. is it? hmmm.. i haven reali searched ard alot yet.. juz started to tink of gettin one.. but after gettin the boxes.. will we still b ok to squeeze thru the traffic? oh ya.. and also.. will it affect our FC alot? like decrease it more den 5-10KM/L? i'm not sure abt it.. cuz i already have a E450N as my top box.. n tinkin of adding side panniers.. might decrease my FC by alot.. but i heard it helps wif our streamlining of the bike too.. haha.. so i'm wonderin which is right..

im guessing it will surely affect the FC.

a bro once mention somewhere in this thread that having a box behind alrdy affect the topspeed, reason being it aint streamline. the design of the box is like flat in front, which deflect wind.

 

having side box fatten the bike, causing more wind resistance, so.. i guess will affect FC and top speed.

but the difference is minor la i guess, fuel $ VS efficiency, pick 1.

 

jus my humble opinion.

Yes .. FC do affected but I don't think it do much damage. It depends on the load and riding style.

What's your clocking before it goes for reserve valve to be 'ON' .. 600 or more for 15L?

If you want to maintain your FC, don't take in unnecessary load and maintain speed at a right time and a right moment.... hmm don't be like me lah hehehe . my bike sometime overload... speed also vary.

 

To squeeze through vehicles, you need patience and have good judgement.

Know you bike arm span length first and feel the bike just like you on body... Take it slow and always be alert, the more you learn the more confident you are to slice through... just like slicing cucumber. But be aware of the unexpected .. we don't want to see any of us become 'cucumber' too. Be safe than sorry. Remember, as riders on the road .. Don't be a COWARD and Don't try to be a HERO too.

Ride safely and be home safely

[nullifi3d]

Just popped in to say hi to you guys. I will be leaving the bajaj name behind in favour for an upgrade next week.

 

Thanks to all those who provided solid information and tips with regards to my purchase, maintenance and ownership of my very first bike.

 

Haha, i'll always smile at a bajaj rider on the road and it will forever remain as my "virgin" trip down "Rider's Lane".

 

Oh BTW, my bike is still available for sale

yupz no matter what if you were to install side boxes your fuel consumption will definitely drop

for me my side box loading is quite constant throughout only my rear box loading varies

going through traffic can be slightly more challenging

have to have better judgment when you decide to squeeze through traffic

the boxes may also be the reason for you not to squeeze through the traffic(safer this way) cos of the number of idiotic car drivers who will not hesitate to turn us into "cucumbers" when they see us squeezing through

$180 is for a pair including installation

this was the price when i check out in Jan before i decided on my non-givi ones $110

givi ones are the E21

http://www.giviusa.com/Side-hardbags/Monokey-Lateral/E21-CRUISER

oh.. cool.. haha.. anyway rite.. i see the givi V35 damn nice man.. haha.. but $$$$$$$$... =( and also.. do we nid additional brackets for the installation? or can juz fix onto the exisitin brackets? wun it give the pillion some discomfort at the leg rest area? whr u got the studds from? how are they holding up?

btw so "early" not sleeping ar?

 

i think the V35 if fitted on our bikes will be too big

 

they come with brackets

for givi ones, you no need to relocate your stock signal lights

for the studds ones you need to relocate your stock signal lights higher or change to those smaller ones(if you want to keep it at the original location)

for givi the boxes can be removed without removing the brakcets and studds ones can't

 

i bought my studds ones at ah boy

i think only ah boy have the studds ones

for the studds ones the mounting is only at the top

so the boxes will tend to move/sway when riding

can see the pics at my previuos post

http://singaporebikes.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5696254&postcount=10041

 

what i did was to add another piece of bracket connecting the bottom of both my boxes to make them stable and not move/sway when riding

which i don't have pic yet

 

i also noob in going in to pump so normally won't go in alone
