CB13 is fine. I may keep it afterall. Anyway, i'm in no hurry at all to let it go. Just that i'm finding it a waste that it's parked at home most of the time. Furthermore no time to tour. Kopi or tour? can. When is the next one? Jio me ok?

Hahaha..

 

Doesnt matter wat ride a rider has. So as long as he loves the riding, the pain and joys along the way.

 

Some guys take a few more bikes before they settle into the one they like, for me it was perhaps fortunate i stumbled onto this one.

 

Be it an S4 or a Diversion, its not the personality of the bike that defines the rider but rather the personality of the rider that defines the character of it. Nick's one hella character 2 hang out wif.

 

Good luck for your sales n hope to see u on future outings/rides.

haha .... thanks thanks ~~ :smile:

[Ah Nick]

hmmm... change the fork spring?? that interesting ~

[haroze]

Hi Bro...

Yup,I changed both front and rear...sring only:thumb: Retail at $460/- but can bargian.It just happenned that the goods arrived when I was about to purchase my motogp tickets.Kenji,the boss ordered one set just to see the respond coz he knew they are numbers of Divvy out there. and was surprised that it was sold fresh from the oven.Don't worry guys the price can be bargain. If you go to Bike Lab, they don't sell you the sring but the whole system.Just the rear Penske cost you S$1450/-.What about Ohlin,Kayaba,Showa.....? I changed it coz of my weight.Most of the guys like Busa,BB,even BMW,MT01 changed it.Of coz after market is better than the standard ones.

[DiabolicZero]

Can we some pictures of how it looks like on your divvy?

Looks like must save up liao.

[Ah Nick]

hmmm .... so u meaning the spring is better then b4... less bouncing or... ..

 

Cos Yamaha Bike do not have good shock system...

Hi supertrapp,

"NO" it is not like that...touring bikes are set in such a way it dosent hurt your tender ass for those doing long distances(touring).

 

Most touring bikes Suspension is on the soft setting...and it depends on riders whether you're light or heavy.

If you are those like to ride hard(play corner) you need to set it up hard or replace to your preferred system for better feed back.

 

Honda also have the same problem on St11. For Stx13 they fix the problem by using load adjuster to the rear suspension.

Some people have tender ass so they replace it to Ohilins XX$ or other racing brands to their likings.

 

Mine` I replaced the front spoke oil to medium grade and solve the see saw problem. maybe another 2yrs later change the spoke coils and rear suspension but for now it is good enough for me (solo)ride.

I'm going to stick to my Divvy for couples of years. I love to own the FJR1300 some day or rather but at the moment the Divvy is just as great.I'm looking forward to go for along ride next year......east coast of malaysia

Hi Haroze,

As what great white beard man said- Great minds, thinks alike....ha,ha,ha!

 

'Yes' I remember that East Coast ride for next Year! waiting for the dates... he,he,hee! and not forgeting need to prepare some cash too...!

 

For past weeks I'm trying to maintain riding between 3500+ and under 4000rpm, I manage to get around 19++km per litre, once in a while, I hit a short burst above 4000 to 5000rpm...! hmmm! after the fuel (crisis)prize hit the top, I'm trying all this stunt traveling at 90+km/h pace. No doubt that pumping in JB via 1st link (for me less then 10km to and fro from home) would save me, "say 50% or even more!"

 

Maybe next time...for now no kaki to follow boring to go in alone, just to pump petrol and back. Go in for supper or breakfast!

I second to tat.

We should change parts that is only needed for ur usage style, not when some1 say is gd, u change.

I change my tyre due to bad experiance in one of the trip.

I don wish to do 90 degree turn at 180km/h and therefore this spring is nice to have but not necessary to hv.

Beware tat harder e spring, less comfort is bike.

Pls also do not forgot the basic function of Divvy.... for touring, and not specially design for kup corner..

Do not wish to turn my Divvy to streetfighter bike...

Yes $220 from Cheong Aik...it's very comfortable indeed!

And it is the most expensive helmet so far in my collection...even more ex than my FF...hehe

 

That is the cheapest that i tried to bargain...tried to bargain to $200...not successful...maybe you can go down and try...Original price is $250.

 

All the best!

Silverghost...

SG... maybe my Ass is not as Tender as urs??

 

Maybe my long legs and ass are lookin for something else.

Maybe different from wht u might feel contented with??

Maybe I have different thinking then ur Great Mind??

Maybe I dun really agree with you??

Can be?

 

Anyway I be posting to sell my bike for nearly 3 months, total of 3 vieweri....

Another maybe is that I keep the bike and do something about it.

 

Anyway I quite sure this bike fits u alot but the same windshield that we are using onli covers to my chin...

Hmm... u r comparing 400cc vs 900cc?

Suggest copmare wave w S4...

Change the fork oil 1st to get the feel.

U should feel the improvement in cornering.

As for the back, try not to touch it as modifying it will greatly affects ur comfort.

Divvy is a big monster to control so it take sometime to get the feeling of it.

There r times Divvy is a bit difficult to turn especially on very tight turn where my scooter does it in secs but this is part of the life of owning a heavy bike.

Try to compare travelling 180km/h w ur S4 as compare w Divvy for long period of time.
