[sigg4]

[WinEd]

wow lau... u all no gd lah... ask me to sell my ram II.....

the zeus one now i seldom wear liao.... haiz....

somehow dun feel safe in it..... maybe its just my thinking...

thinking of the rx7 r4

[tooned]

hmmm usually i'll just wear an open face helmet...

but when it rains, i'll put on my ff, padded jacket, full glove and no pillion.

 

i think on dry days, the handling of a phantom is very good...good ebraking distance and my tyres are pretty grippy when it's dry.

totally different story when wet...will slid a little when going over the painted parts of the road. that's why i'll put everything when raining. to keep dry and safe also.

 

i see abt 50% of people say they wear protective gears...can eleborate? jacket and gloves all the time?

my minimum gear for everyday wear is boots, ff and armoured gloves.

if i'm doing more than the to and fro work (5km) riding, i'll wear the jacket as well

[tooned]

i see...

hmmm i guess everyone should start learning from you

anyway what kinda boots do you wear? i find it a bit hard to change gears when wearing those non-riding boots.

[hondacbr2001]

if possible wear gloves , jackets , boots and a good helmet .

 

not like me who loves siglets , pants and sandles . thus when accident time ! here and there injuries ! but now im not gonna compromise anything regrading safety . i will put on all these as and when im going out !
