Ya, you should join.

Run-in your scoot at the same time.

Make full use of your scooter.

Running in during the trip maybe too fierce for you as in group the average is from 100km/h to 120km/h.

Your scooter will most probably max out already.

If you feel comfortable, it should be fine.

Check with them if it is ok for you to join the trip with your new scoot. Warranty issue.

If you are a new P plate rider then it will be very exciting and dangerous and stressful. After the trip you will power up immediately or get scared off for a while

Proper riding gear is a must like jeans, shoes, jacket and gloves.

Happy riding.

Erm Hmm.... I'm also a P-Plate rider. Haha.

 

Short distance to Malacca, no problems with the DT 125 =D

 

Just that I don't quite have the time to go touring and all.... So give me a super powerful bike also no use. =(

 

Of course, more power as I've said, is nice (ridden pillion on FJR1300), but unnecessary....

[topgearalwaysrock]

MotorSports should bring in the new G.Dink 125. The flat floor is really something.

 

I saw one rider with a huge pail straddled between his legs on the SYM JoyRide 200. Haha!!!

[topgearalwaysrock]

I should think motorbike COE will be breaking the $2k mark and staying there soon.....

 

Seen the COE prices for car COE's??? =(

[topgearalwaysrock]

Anyways, have your noticed that parking lots in shopping malls are getting super tight??

 

I parked at Causeway Point, and the parking lots are actually narrower than the handlebar width of the DownTown!!!

[topgearalwaysrock]

Here are more pictures of my DT125i parked next to Yamaha Fazer 1 with HP side box =D

 

 

[topgearalwaysrock]

Should be hitting 10,000km tomorrow =D Now 9975km already =D

How much are you expecting? Is that the official fuel consumption?

[topgearalwaysrock]

Well, break in should be riding around 80kph.

 

So should be getting 40km/L, especially on stock tires.... Haha!

But usually first few petrol tanks won't be as high. For a start of 35.6km/L, seriously.... =D

 

Not to worry!

[tabung]

How do you fix the hand cover... where u get? Would like to buy n fix it

Motorsports is selling it now (MacPherson Showroom). For $100.

 

I bought it at $200 =(

[topgearalwaysrock]

Are your guys interested to have a short shopping spree to Jusco Permas Jaya, JB?? Haha.

[topgearalwaysrock]

Just saw from across my house, a traffic police stopping a rider on an electric bike on the pavement!!!

 

Like WTH!!!! Are they really clamping down?? Or really nothing to do???

[topgearalwaysrock]

Just something fun =D

Our projector lens are good enough for pitch black NSHW. I don't display my road tax nor RFID, can't find a suitable place where I can screw it and not being an eye sore. Saw a lot of people screw it at the rear licence plate.

Season parking I stick the label on the front windshield to hide the IU =D

 

Road tax now all computerized - Warden/ TP just need to key in registration/ license plate number will know if you've renewed it or not.

 

But just in case, I keep me roadtax in a plastic folder in the box =D

[topgearalwaysrock]

To adittoro: Did u trade in ur sportsbike with Motorsports??

 

The riding position can be better bro =D

 

You'll realize it after a 45mins ride.... =(

 

And what's your height?? You'll need to tip toe at stops right??
