Hi guys,

 

I have collected my ride and it's been exhilarating so far! The big V-twins just get my juices flowing. Hope to learn more abt the VStrom from the folks here. Coming to work though, I find it hard to adjust to being less able to squeeze during the morning peak hours on the ECP!

[anodise57]

Less able to squeeze?

U riding Kup previously?

There shouldnt be much prob.... its jus about getting used to... Unless there are a lot of Vans.. >If not... normal cars u should squeeze thru quite nicely..

 

WELCOME TO DA club.......

[juvefan]

No lah my last bike was an XJR400. This Vstrom is 20cm wider, so yeah i'm still getting used to it. And the power! Gosh 3rd gear and I'm already at 80km/hr.

[anodise57]

Feel great if u jus upgraded from 400cc.....

Feel bit miserable if u downgraded from bigger cow.. hahahahha

 

Anyway its a fun ride cos the torque of V-twin is different.

[smokin]

i had fun challenging msian cubs every morning along kje...

 

 

btw, anyone selling away givi side racks for the 650?

[anodise57]

Smokin...

can install the GT-wing like s4vtec... Then the Kups might reconsider cutting into ur lane.... cos they'll get CUT pretty easily.. hahaha

[Tut Tut]

thanks tut. tat is way cheaper than the Honda filter.

 

 

No prob. Let me know if u wanna meet up after collecting your bikes.

collected my bike liao. nice to ride. very smooth. i llove the tall riding position. overall, very addictive to ride. however, the idling doesn't sound fierce

[Tut Tut]

That sounds like a job of a set of aftermarket exhuast
