Hey there swinger,

 

Still buzzing the B and trunk roads as often as I can, alternating my Tmax with my Boxercup replica. However had a bad start for 2008, lost one of my best riding buddies on Karak highway on the 1st day of this year in a high speed accident.

 

I will be collecting the Fuoco probably Saturday and will be buzzing the hills of Awana Genting this sunday morning.

 

The GP 800 does not turn me on as it is too 'scooter like'. I was hoping the Italians will design a '916' of scooters but alas that was not the case.

 

The new Tmax is priced at more than RM60k while I got the Fuoco for 'just' RM40k.

 

Congratulations on your 08 Tmax. Gotta meet you one day so you can show me the big scooter scene over there.

 

By the way, there's another awesome piece of mountain road just completed and it will offer another 160km of nice curves cutting across Peninsula Malaysia.

 

BTW, is the Fuoco already on the road there?

 

Regards

 

mrmagoo.

Hiya there cheeko,

 

No la. I don't know about that trip. Anyway can't do it coz this weekend I'll be having fun with the Fuoco going down the hills of Awana Genting with the Sportsbikers of KL. He he. Can't do much uphill coz the bike is running in......

 

And yes, the road is is from Gua Musang to the Kenyir area passing through Taman Negara. So its really great for a nice loop. PLUS highway all the way from SG, then run up for a night at Camerons via the Simpang Pulai twisties. Next day ride from Camerons to Gua Musang and onwards to the East Coast for another night there before returning to SG via the Mersing coastal highway.

 

Awesome, a combination of highway, twist in the hills for some cold air, then twist down the hills for some sea air before returning to reality.....

Picked up the bike just now. Covered 40kms on it. Immediate impression is that the TMax has superior rear end handling, expected as the Fuoco is a swinging engine and the unsprung weight of the muffler is very apparent. front end is better though. As the bike is brand new, I only used gentle throttle applcation, and it accelerates fairly well. A fair comparison can only be made after the bike is run in.

 

Report will be on the Fuoco thread.

mrmagoo, your TMAX seat looks good for Pillion, is that a stock seat with modifications or a totally different seat ?? :p

I used the original seat base. The original seat cover and foam are kept in a sealed bag in the garage and I sent the seat base to a car cushion service center and ther redesigned the seat. And yes, the seat is a lot moer comfortable than the original item, bot for rider and pilloin.
