hi bro, thanks for the wish. now i wonder how on earth u get to know it. n having it in shanghai is not really a good idea.

 

another question on anodizing. how long does it takes to anodize a part n roughly how much it costs? does it save from rust?

 

you are at Shanghai? your bday is displayed at supermoto..

i'll be spending my bday in US during Nov.. not a good place too..

 

anodized stuffs will never rust as only aluminium can be anodised..

price depending on the amount of items you wanna anodise..

example like case savers would be abt $10-15..

n 1 talon gold spocket for rear 43T condition 9/10. anyone interested pls PM me....tks

[Vtec1605198534]

wat ever bike also suitable to ride up north, the problem is the rider

 

i agree, juz the time taken to reach the place u wan. for me i still prefer something that can cruise with ease. even when riding in sg expressway, i already swear at my DRZ

i think i gt the wrong bike

changing to fazer 600 by end of the yr

[SparkerS1]

hi bros wat will be the topspeed for drz 400..

its not meant for maintaining top speed

many of us had already conquer till Malacca..

and you dun travel at top speed all the way for touring....!!

 

oops, been there done tat, top speed all the way is stressful

bro, if thinking of cruising, then stx1300 will be the best choice....or the new fz1....

[konspire]

happy bday bro konspire.. anyway, abt JD, i installed it a week after we met.. JD rocks!!! =)

 

thxs bro. can't wait to see ur updated bike....n u r so fast....

[redname]

i think any bike could go...i even heard that some cubs went up to thailand before...isn't it amazing?

 

my fren, P plate, jus went to thailand on her KSR

[redname]

ok lah, can, enough reasons to make me do it. i just hope that the price stays until i come back....r they opened on saturdays?

 

shld b less than $100 lah, also gotta depends on the complication also.

 

if possible, try to get the contact number of Abboy cause i kenna b4 he happy happy nvr open shop

[redname]

many of us had already conquer till Malacca..

when at Malacca, most of us had the urge to go up till KL..!!

right, redname???

 

like redname say, it's the rider not the bike..

and you dun travel at top speed all the way for touring...

it's all abt endurance and sight-seeing when you go touring..!!

 

eeeerrrhhhhh, i tink i left the grp liao when u guys wanna go KL

 

its true abt the speed, there's not much diff in the timing really, the most 15-20min diff.

 

and if with endurance, eg able to go 200km straight everytime, u actually shave some time off also

[redname]

konspire: before this day end, i wish you a happy birthday..

 

Sam: many of us on SME barend sliders.. they saved my anodised handguards.. theu cost abt $20.

Motovation ones abit over.. if you dun mind such a big chunk sticking out..

DRZ is nvr abt the speed, its abt the fun.

 

but for me its riding a scram for its posture but i still wanna gd grippy tires

no, they are not.. heavy ones, maybe can try Motovation, but it's huge..

 

depending on the handguards, some may actually reduce the vibrations..

my previous cemoto handguards reduced a lot of vibrations, but i just dun like the mounting..

i using acerbis one.

 

maybe i'm comparing to the ones i had on my super 4 previously bah, so not very fair grd lah cause diff engine type and the handlebar for super already so heavy liao

[konspire]

my fren, P plate, jus went to thailand on her KSR

 

well, its proven again, it's not abt the bike, it's abt the rider. i guess she must be one hell of a tough girl....kudos to those who made it

[norishimu]

bro got that already. haha

just thinking can use heavier ones a not , cos thinking of reducing the vibes lo

[Vtec1605198534]

bro, if thinking of cruising, then stx1300 will be the best choice....or the new fz1....

 

i feel 600 for sg roads is already overkill so not thinking abt anything bigger although i still prefer the fz1s. my bike is only my transport to work. going overseas, i prefer to drive my car

[Vtec1605198534]

but for me its riding a scram for its posture but i still wanna gd grippy tires

 

maybe i dun realli like how a scram handles. too used to feeling planted on the road with my ex bikes. during windy days, while riding, feel the bike very unstable

[biting_point]

what kinda mounts you using for your handguards now?? if using u-clamp, that's the most you can reduce the vibes...

 

triple clamp mounts will occur more vibes..

 

try the Motovation barends loh.. if got great improvement, do update..
