what is your touring speed?if abt 100km/h i think stock sprocket can do it well.

if you wanna to have a higher speed change the rear sprocket size to 38 or 39T.

i think your stock sprocket is 15/41..correct me if im wrong.

 

pack light for the trip as the bike does not have many storage space.

you can attach a small bag @ the front fender.

remember to bring along tire repair kit/spare tubing/spark plug.

medical kit

fresh water

 

waterproof all important document and photocopy your ic and passport in case its lost.

emergency contact numbers.

 

if possible,install a 33 or 45L box.

 

price wise you have to check with the shop.

look around @ motoworld/ah piao tpy ind/ah seng mayo street for sprockets

box and rack @ LAB

 

use semi syn EO for the trip and bring along 1 bottle for oil change or top up during the trip.(oil change @ 3000km)

Just pack what you require. Do not overload your bike.

 

I believe you do not have a box installed on your bike then don't waste the money just for this trip. A haversack will do the trick.

 

Go to Daiso and buy a Vacuum bag for S$2 which will help you save space. (Get the one which does not require you to use vacuum cleaners)

 

waterproof all important document and photocopy your ic and passport in case its lost.

 

Btw, for your informations, photocopies of documents like Passport, IC & Driving License can not be use as any form of identification purpose (Even if you lost your original copies)

 

Only a Police Report can be used as Identification (Which will bare your Name, Passport Number, Nationality etc..)

 

You can get into trouble with photocopies of passport, IC, Driving License...
