Ride at a speed you're comfortable at but not speeding especially above 110 to avoid summons. What other people ride at not so important.

[Lass]

guess best to stay within limits uncle sam v active these days

[Steppenwolf]

I ride a 3rd hand 4 year old Phantom. So i don't trust my bike too much. I therefore typically ride at 90 on highways even if it's a clear room. Sometimes i'll go to 100 or 110 max.

 

A bit kiasu so i'd rather ride at more managable speeds.

[ZoRoM]

I will clear my meter once awhile. Lik i wash my bike if not very the got tp the last few number i cant see.

[nivleK1985]

80-90km/h

[madman]

90. If overtaking, slightly faster.

[syaiguy]

for me, my rule of thumb is dun go more than 20 over speed limit... more than 20 kena 4 pts sia... not worth it... so normal road i go at most 80 and expressway at most 110...

[CivicR]

Depend where I'm riding, seldom go beyond 120km/h on my SP. Normal road 60-70km/h more then happy liao unless road hogging lar.

Me too try to keep within that.

[tyujhgbnm]

i will try to be 2nd fastest on the road so that i can speed and TP most only can caught the fastest. but I will sp[eed as fast as possible if i drink a lot .... :bouncefire:

[v2win]

...which is to speed up? Or is it to slow down?

 

Anyways, I control my speed according to the surrounding "4-wheeled objects" around me. This means speeding up/slowing doesn't matter; having at least a safety margin is most important to me when I travel.

 

(Of course, the allowed speed limit is taken into account also, even if I don't take this strongly into account. Gotta show Uncle Sam that we're good riders too )

[zeth83]

e speed u travelling aint impt. wats most impt is to keep a safe following dist infront n behind u.

[fabien]

Remember:

 

0 - 10: 3points

10-20: 4points

20-30: 6points

30-40: 8points

>40: big troubles

 

Malaysia: No points only Copi Money!

 

so my advice is to keep it below 20kph above the speed limit in Singapore... u can still negotiate with TP in that range. Above 20 they become less understanding.

[dyingxatheist]

wow you dug out such an old thread.... hehehe

100-120 wuld b safe.. as 4 me my speed will b up to 110km/h hehe.. up the above will b goin' to jb..

[Darkness19]

within 100-120km/h

[Figila]

normal road 80-100,eway-100-130

if selit-relek2 slow n steady.car can js change lane...finish.

[Snoek]

E-way at most 100 +/- abit. Not worth to get caught for speeding.

[Pandoras Kitten 3]

Wait for fast car to go past and draft behind. Usually 130+

 

Note that bike speedos are overly optimistic in their readings (safety feature?). 100 on a bike is usually about 80-90 depending on make. How to measure?

 

Ride beside the new model Honda Civics and peer at their huge digital speedos

 

Bikes with digital speedos (Pulsar) don't have such errors.
