Yes they still produce KRRs.. I saw 3 new different colored ones at Ban Hon when I paid for my installment..

[A3roSmith]

just by the side... someone told me tt thailand has stopped producing 2 stroke bikes since 2002.... now all 4 stroke liao.

 

so the "new" KRRs here, including mine, were all produced before then (ie old stock), just that they havent been registered yet by the dealers and have never been ridden (doh), thus the FY/FZ plate...

[A3roSmith]

anyway good for them.... i'm not really a 2 stroke fan....

[A3roSmith]

eh guys... just want to ask, anyone else having trouble with crosswinds lately? i'm finding that the krr seems to b just too light during this rainy season. if a crosswind catches me at anything above 110, the effect is bad enough for me to have to fight to regain control. so i've been going very slowly since. never experienced this before the bad weather came.

 

2nd link bridge is even worse... there was an incident, i remember one day after the tsunami hit, where the winds were so bad it would have blown the entire bike to the next lane if i hadn't been careful.

 

i'm just wondering is it just me or if the winds are really tt crazy. pls comment...

Just leave that aside. There's definitly new KRR now.

Yes, KRR is a 2-stoker.

[A3roSmith]

okay... another outing notice...

 

i'm trying to organise something again next week, tentatively i will be going to kulai on weds night with the scooters. feel free to join us. those who are interested, keep your schedules free. i will post again early next week to confirm.

 

don! nicholas! ferrous! this means you!

[A3roSmith]

yes kips is 2 stroke. yes i always thought krr is still in production also. wat i meant is someone told me the "new" or first hand krr u see in shops are all produced before 2002.... just tt the dealers never bring in the stock. so they have been supposedly sitting in thailand for 2+ years until they come to singapore.

 

dont know how true it is, just something i heard so dont flame me. from someone i believe is reliable though. up to you if anyone wants to believe, i dont think it really affects us anyway....

it's true

the winds nowadays quite aggressive

muz be careful whenever reach certain parts of E-way especially flyovers or places where there's big open space beside the E-way

there's this stretch of TPE nearby sengkang exit...most of the time i will kena the wind when i pass by
