More police to patrol roads this weekend

THE Traffic Police will step up their presence on the roads over the long National Day weekend to blunt the spike in fatal and serious accidents that have marred this holiday in recent years.

 

In the past three years, seven people have been killed and four others seriously hurt on Aug 8 and 9.

So this weekend, road users can expect more road blocks, speed checks and more police patrol cars and motorcycles on the roads, to ensure that motorists follow traffic rules and drive safely.

 

Traffic Police Commander Teo Kian Teck said that motorists should make sure they are 'in a good state' before driving.

 

Tiredness, the influence of alcohol and speeding could all lead to accidents, Assistant Commissioner Teo said.

 

Don't drink and drive; stop driving if you feel tired; keep within the speed limit and you will 'arrive alive', he said.

 

'For those who want to try speeding, don't. We will be on the lookout for you,' he warned.

 

He also urged pedestrians not to make themselves a 'moving hazard' by jay-walking.

Hello, since u all r talking about this TP thingy; juz wanna add on...

 

Not only they looking out for speedsters, they are also on an all-out look out for tinted visors. Will never give chance one, straight away summon u $50. According to one, visors can only be tinted up to 25%.

 

How I know all this; coz juz got summon this morning along PIE... haiz... So ppl, do wat u think is best okies.

[d0n]

last night went down to start bike

on ignition...open choke....kickstart...

once the bike started...the RPM auto shooot up to 10k

i wasnt even turning the throttle

immediately off the ignition + close fuel c*** and check for possible throttle cable jam

throttle + throttle cable seems fine

so on ignition + open fuel c*** and start again

RPM shoot up to 10k again

so i off the ignition...bike continued revving...i panicked...off the e-switch + close fuel c***...bike still revving away~

(i understand closing fuel c*** would take sometime for the fuel supply to carb be totally used up...but even e-switch dont work?!?!)

really panicked liao...imagine me staring at a bike revving at 10k RPM + w/ e-switch at the engine off position + ignition switch off

 

so i clutch in kick gear 1 then throw clutch...

heng the bike jerk forward abit nia then cut off

tmd...si bei

opened up my seats to check for possible electrical connection problem

no loose connection...squat down look at carb

found this screw-on cap located at the top of the carb totally unscrewed out...

this cap is connected to the airbox one

screwed it back w/ some difficulty cause of the fairing + this rubber tube linking the air box to the cap

checked positioning of air screw + idling screw of carb

start bike and heng bike okie liao....but exhaust sound kind of weird which later was concluded to due to the overrevving caused my valve to open while the bike is in stationary

 

so qns is....what's the purpose of the cap?

does it come loose so easily?

actually the legal limit for tinted visor is set at 30% and below larz

anyway...have tried a full tinted black visor before...really cant see very well compared to my clear visor lehz

maybe im not used to it.....so ended up i still use clear visor...may consider getting one w/ 30% tint or below when i have the cash~

[irvin]

anyway to determine whether a visor is less than 30% tinted?

If I am correct in trying to understand what you are saying.... the top of the carb has unscrewed itself off. Only two possibilities...

 

(1) It wasn't tightened in the first place. There is spring pressure inside which "in time", the cap unscrewed itself. Very very unlikely.

 

(2) Vandalism. Someone "helped" you to unscrew the cap. If my guess is right, he was trying to unscrew the carb top off, untighten 2 more screws, a little twisting and your carb gets stolen. Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that without removing the airbox, there is no way he can do that. But if he really wanted to, he could start removing your seats and then the petrol tank... then you're really farked!

 

With your recent experiences with neighbourhood thieves attempting to steal your seats, I guess you should make a police report immediately and request for more frequent police patrols around the car park where you park your bike.

Simple recipe fix to your problem.

 

(1) Go to Esso/Mobil/Shell/BP/SPC buy 4 litres of petrol.

 

(2) With lots of tender loving care (While also adding more flavour by using hokkien expletives), generously apply the petrol over the bike. Make sure every portion is covered.

 

(3) Use a Zippo lighter. Start a flame and throw it at your bike (I would recommend a distance of 3 metres away at least).

 

(4) Let it burn to a crisp.

 

Videotape the whole process. I'm very sure you'll have a backyard movie hit. Just imagine... one download S$0.50 X millions of downloads all over the world. You can bloody buy a RCV211 off Honda when you're done with collecting the cash!!

 

Disclaimer: I am the original mastermind of this entire idea. Any damages/claims will not be directed at me. However, any revenue generated either directly OR indirectly will be liable to be shared with me on a 50/50% basis. I reserve the right to amend all these conditions as and when I favour with any prior notification/permission required from anybody.

[Guest FireSpitter]

UPDATE OF ANTI THEFT OF KRR SEATS ACCESSORY

 

Negotiations have been successful. Protection for BOTH the front & rear seat is going for $36. Material used is non rusting and weight is negligent yet strong enough to withstand any deliberate attempts to remove your seats.

 

Installation is too bloody simple. I can still accept new orders up till Monday 12pm and delivery date is expected to be on Tuesday 11 Aug 2004.

 

I will need to collect $20 from all those who have indicated interest in getting this, latest tomorrow. I will be contacting you about the collection of cash. (I may turn up for the gathering tonight. Not confirmed but the intention is there.)

 

If anybody needs to contact me and forgot my number, it's 97689838.

Originally posted by R3sistor@Aug 7 2004, 01:27 AM

pardon me rebby, but where did u get the info on front wheel size 90 and BACK WHEEL SIZE 80?

 

Hey raven7, this is for u.

The stock size for KRR tyre is as follows :

front: 90/80-17

Rear: 110/80-17

 

Do note that none of the japan tyres(TT900GP, TT900, BT039SS) comes with the stock rear size of 110/80-17. Nearest profile u can choose for a rear tyre is 100/80-17 or 120/80-17.

If motordiam gives u a 110/70-17 chances are its a front tyre used for rear. Check yr tyres before they are fitted on yr rims.

Thanks Resistor. I got the same tyres same as you have mention earlier. Btw just got my bike and will join you all for future outing.

anyway to determine whether a visor is less than 30% tinted?

yes

the authorities have got this device that can determine how much light that gets passed thru yr visor

anyway the difference between a full tinted and a 30% tinted visor quite obvious right?
