SBF Silverwings / HOM Cafe 2012

[Sensible]

I think SW9000 can register up to 25km/litre, if i'm not wrong..

 

Scooby used to be able to hit 25km/litre until he change his air-filter?

[bigcow]

With my fast riding & pickup, I can also clock 24km/l. It's all abt throttle control.

Scooby still clock 25+++ km/L even with K & N.

He and me very 'gentle' rider.

 

But hor if with pillion, FC should probably be around 23-24 km/L.

yup, averaging around 25km/L but mostly along expressways (hardly in city) and no pillion. not sure how much contribution the K&N airfilter or the power abuser or 4-point grounding has in getting the good FC. but i'm happy with my SW's current setting

[Chubb]

hi guys.. may i know wat e diff in JDM and Euro model?

interested to changed into a SW400

[scoobydoo]

basically they are the same, with only minor differences... same body kit, same spare parts used, same set of tyres, same engine, etc. probably only some electronics, key ignition assembly, throttle assembly and bike settings different nia. do a search and you should find this question has been answered many times in this thread.

also check out the technical thread Silverwing 400cc / 600cc Tech Corner (http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/images/misc/multipage.gif 1 2)

 

but if you're looking for a younger used SW, there's only Euro

I'm still looking to hit 25km/l once my SW normalizes from run-in. Will be testing to see if I can do 25km/l w/o pillion.

[SW9000]

Highly likely I'll get The Verandah.

It's 1750thb (with breakfast) during Songkran.

Opposite Macdonalds and 7-11 and 3mins from the beach.

There are only 16 twin rooms (total 21 roooms) that's why must decide early.

 

Hmm, so far got 4 ppl liao. I think max we can handle 10 nia (got so many interested meh?). haha.

waiting for the trip n nice sea view post by sw9000:cheeky:

[scoobydoo]

Must search map for hidden areas to explore... waterfalls, hotsprings, etc.

actually i tot of doing a johor hot spring trip; there're 2 in johor..

problem is, they're both too far away from our pengerang seafood joint

 

a) labis (segamat)

To get here, head for Yong Peng town or Segamat town. From Yong Peng, travel north along the trunk road to Labis. From Segamat, travel southeast to Labis town. It is a further 10km from Labis to reach the hot spring

http://www.virtualmalaysia.com/destination/labis%20hot%20spring.html

labis town is about 60km north of yong peng, add another 10km from labis to hot spring (if we can find it)... total about 160km from GP esso. about 20+km further in from labis, there's a 39ft tall labis waterfall. melaka is about 120km from labis town.

 

b) sungei grisek (muar)

The nearest town is Batu Pahat (23km). From the North South Expressway (NSE), take the Ayer Hitam exit (Interchange 244) onto highway 50 that will lead you to Batu Pahat. From Batu Pahat town, travel north-west passing Semerah. At Sungai Balang, take a right turn and drive on for about 4km and you will reach the Grisek Hotspring.

http://www.virtualmalaysia.com/destination/grisek%20hot%20spring.html

its bout 150km up from GP esso (approx 2hrs), probably good for a grisek-melaka 2D1N trip

always wanting to join u guys for far trip but its too long for me as I don't have some many days of leave to clear.....

 

I might be joining the 1D Jason Bay/Pengerang Seafood/A&W Trip.

But can't confirm now... if I am free on that day, will contact SW9000 cos he stay near me and might be setting off together with him.

 

Hope that someone can organize some weekend short trip

[SW9000]

If tomorrow afternoon no rain by 4pm, I might be tempted to bring my bike for a walk to Malacca and back. : )
