Hi guys,

Jleo and jasper met this guy with green diversion at the gp petronas well his name is Nasir...or it is the other way round...nasir met this buggers...anyway another handsome bugger to our Diversion family!

Nasir and me, we had a hearty chats till 0200+ am, brief history about him he is been biking for sometimes his bike mileage is about to hit 100,000km already phew!! a very experience rider with a regular traveling habit!! Can say that he is a touring miniac..!

Haroze have met him before at the woodlands esso petrol kiosk.

 

Till now "no problem" so guys what you expected from a bike is to be problem free- am I right!- here is another example.:-).

Hi Oxygen,

 

You bet I was sad when I saw the photos and the how much fun this ppl had. Really wished I was there too, especially after talking to SilverGhost and Custom earlier just now. We met for TCS in the afternoon at Sun Plaza.

 

Also, just got the same mirrors that is found on Custom's bike. Have yet to get it fixed though.

Name the time n place n I'll try to arrange.. simple checking...

Else try this. Check the contact btw the box and the base plate.

Most of e problem come from nvr put the box align with the contact.

Jleo,

 

I know that I have been scarce lately. Rest assured that I am reading the threads and keeping myself abreast with the latest happenings. Honestly, I miss riding very much. Will try me best to join for future rides.

 

In the meantime.............got a baby to burp.

Hi OMD,

What we did at the Fraser Hill, is nothing compare to your baby and your son(kids) running you up and the down hill- "I mean hall .... phew! " that must be tiring mannn!- babies ride your sleep OFF at the middle of the night!!!

 

Lucky I passed my advance riding course years back- now you are in/on course... he,he,he.....!

 

Silverghost...

[SiLvErGhOsT]

Hi Jleo,

Actually- it would be wonderfull- if you can put up the routes we took and places we stop...km we covered!!!

When any interested buggers going thru our diversion site/thread. They can straight away go and checkout the trips thread page number which will be stated by the months' trip/tour....it will be easier for them to read...

 

for example:- JAN, genting highlands (trip completed) check page 78 & 79!

 

*I did not load up my photos as mine and custom were almost identical..! great mind thinks alike...he,he,hee...!

Guys,

 

Fixed the mirrors today and ride around a bit.

 

Verdict :-

- Nice looking

- Very sturdy (no distortion at high speed/rev)

- % of view is not that great

- Blind spot area is more.

 

That is my findings so far. I am a relatively large built person, so part of my arms/shoulder is hindering the mirror's views. The original mirrors, although not pleasing to look at, gives me better view behind.

Hi,

 

Tell your brother-in-law to come in here and read the threads. There is a plethora of valuable information about the Diversion 900 in within these pages.

 

If there is something or some area not covered yet, just post the question and someone will answer. Lastly, we your brother-in-law to the Diversion family here in Singapore.

Hi OMD,

think sometin to do with ur mirror adjustment.

Try lossen the locking nut(right side 2, left side 1) and adjust.

U should have a better picture after that.

I've 100% viewing angle w/o blockage from my body...

 

Guys,

Juz mounted the nighthawk handle bar. Riding it for only abt 50km and feedback is quite gd. Yet to try it on extended long ride.

Maybe after my China trip will go for e test.

Silverghost also change after me... maybe he can advise...

Cost is abt $140 depend on ur bargin power.

Wanted to change tyre but fail again due to no stock

The break hose had been also changed..... feedback is better than stock hose..

 

Now till end of the month will try to eat more grass...

Hi,

 

Saw what looks like a lady, yes, a lady, riding a silver Divvy (only top box and no panniers) yesterday at about 1400hrs on the CTE near the Yishun exit. It could have been a guy with long hair, I am not sure. Anyone got any leads?

I've heard of a middle-age divvy lady rider in stormriders. Ever saw the bike b4 at Marina south but its green with no panniers. Maybe Palary can enlighten us.

That green one used to belong to a Couple in stormrider, but was later sold to a guy in SR.

Hi Ah Nick,

 

Sun has made the order already. Maybe u can try asking him to see whether he can order one more for u?

 

Sun are u reading this??

 

Hi Guys,

 

So sorry for the reply. I was out in a place where there isn't any pc & internet. Anyway, Nick, as spoken, just go over to biketech. I've spoken to Shah, the shop owner. Just hope that now with an order of 3 windshields, there is a reason for him to bring them in.
