Always a pleasure riding wif e usual TDMers ! Oso not forgetting e new ones !

 

It was a very nice ride . . . . Nice scenery n comfy speed ! Truly enjoyed our very expensive but delicious seafood .

 

Next day ride we shall plan for Sagil, e foot of Mount Ophir ! Nice winding road n can go for a dip in e waterfall !

 

Last heard from Joeboxer that there are tentacles coming out from his ears due to e bee sting . . . Nevertheless , he's fine n out an about running aimlessly !

 

Correction.Not from my ears.My neck and now i look like a big throat alienated human... Anyway e nice food did take some of e pain away momentarily.e lobsters are awesome btw and e steam fish is orgasmic!

Sounds coolz... Inform us inadvance prior to this trip ok ?

Bro Joe, you take care... My last sting was during NS time in Thailand... On my butt was about 8 of them...

 

For information, first remove their sting from our body, if not it will still inject toxic from the little remain.... If available pour vinegar, it will detox the stink and look for medical help...

pee for bee stings, and vinegar for wasps...anyway, hope joeboxer has fully recovered by now!

 

i need to change tires soon...threads are thin and unevenness at rear, and small cracks in front. currently using bt 020.

 

have been reading up on the pilot road 2...and found out the latest is PR3, which is more suited for sport-touring! cost a little more than PR2, but the performance on wet condition is even better, and more durable too.

 

just one question...the manual says rear is 160/60 - 17inch. what do the 160/60 mean? can i fit the PR3 which is 170/60 - 17 inch? i'm sure it can as the size is the same, but any issue with the first 2 numbers?

For 160/60/17:

160 = 160mm tyre width

60 = sidewall is 60% of tyre width (160) = 96mm (If i am not wrong)

17 = Rim size

 

hence for 170/60/17, your tyre width will be broader but it'll stand taller at 102mm sidewall.

would 6mm make a lot of diff? just a little taller at the rear is ok for me, if there are no other issues. provided it fit and not hit the mud guard.

You've to try and feel the differences...

 

But Bro PCR, did you know that PR3 does have our front size ??? Only have 17", ours is 18"...

 

So you intend to mix PR2 front and PR3 rear ?

6mm might be very closed/touching to our mud-guard/swingarm already...

Check with the shop that you're going to replace it with...

 

For your info, Thomas and I are heading to Bikeworkz to have our tyre replace this coming saturday afternoon ard 1pm...

 

Join us if you want, but must pre-order the tyre first cos our is not the "normal" size...

ya, so how much is bikeworkz charging for PR2?

 

Guys,

 

PR3 front tires will wear off very fast n e middle thread will be slanted . PR2 still e best for sport touring n high speed cornerings !

 

Last wk Mr Angie changed his at Bikeworkz - Damage : $360 !

 

Glenn n Thomas . . .

 

Pls check wif Ah Beng 1st if u wanna change ur tires this sat . He just moved to new shop n he n staffs are extremely bz n shop is in a mess . Went down just now but his tire changing machine n compressor is still not up yet .
