Used to remember when working at the Second Link two guys was spotted walking cum running from the Malaysian border to the Singapore side and upon stopping them they claimed that they had abandoned their car at the bridge near the malaysian side due to a figure of a woman flying and suddenly landed on their windshield.Still had to follow procedure and screened the guys and after checking that nothing amissed had to asked them to proceeded back to their vehicle that they had abandoned earlier.Needlessly they came back later driving their car but with a pale faces.

 

suzuki2749>>It ok bro.I could believed you because that stretch of road that you mentioned had a lot of unnatural sightings.

hideaway >>> i feel for you about your hand guards.. when i installed mine i did not know any better and did it in a rush.. went to chong aik to get.. look see for 2 mins.. told the guy i wanted it and he put it in a plastic bag.. installation? go to any bike shop sure can one.. back to my bike shop(at the time).. cannot fit.. need to change handlebar.. err.. okie.. paid $120 for a new handlebar.. ended up i had a new handle bar.. handguards and no balancers.. no fun when on tour.. came back to singapore.. told him to take off the hand guards and change my handlebar back.. at the end of it all.. i ended up with a new handlebar, handguards, new front brake hose and a filled down bracket for my acerbis.. my advice is this.. in the future when getting anything for your bike.. ask around first.. don't rush and find a damn good mechanic and keep him happy! since then i have never bought anything without asking around first and making sure i have all the needed information.. and have been smiling more since.. just my thoughts to share is all..

 

anyways.. if you are still having problems with your handguard.. pay a visit to mtechnik.. the mechanic there solved all my handguard problems in 10 mins.. thats 10 hours less than all the effort needed to get all the other junk that i supposedly needed..

 

peace

Fraser's Hill Ride

 

Date : 6th (Fri) 0500hrs - 8th (Sun) 2359hrs April 2007 (Good Friday Weekend)

 

Agenda : Ride, Relax, Rest / AGM(Awesome Grand Mtg - review 2006, Plan 2007, Q&A)

 

Accomadation Cost @ Singapore House : less then S$20 per person for 2 nites

 

General Info : Fraser's Hill (Bukit Fraser) is a colonial-era hill station in Pahang state, Peninsular Malaysia.

 

Understand

Fraser's Hill is named after Louis James Fraser, a Scotsman who prospected for gold in Australia but eventually struck tin here instead in the 1890s. Employing Chinese miners to do the hard work for him and earning his keep by operating mule trains down the mountain, Fraser set up opium and gambling dens to increase his profits, which may have had something to do with his subsequent mysterious disappearance. The tin ran out in 1913, but the lush valley within was rediscovered as a colonial hill resort that, thanks to its 1524m elevation, enjoys considerably cooler temperatures than Kuala Lumpur. By 1922 a road had been cut through the mountains to the valley, which soon sprouted bungalows and even one of Malaya's first golf courses.

 

Not much has changed since, and Fraser's Hill retains a wonderfully weird mixed-up character, where locals eat curries off banana leaves in a English cottage next to a golf course while the call to prayer sounds from the mosque.

 

Location

Fraser's Hill is located 105 km north of Kuala Lumpur, around 2 hours by car. For a long time, access to Fraser's Hill was possible only via a 8-km one-lane road known as the The Gap, used by uphill and downhill traffic in turns. However, a new road was completed in 2001, and while promptly closed for repairs it is, as of March 2006, open once again. Now all upward traffic uses the new road, while the old Gap road is designated for downward traffic, with no time restrictions round the clock.

 

Only 420km to Destination

[manism]

Hi All,

 

Yeah too bad i can't fix the acerbis guard...instead i end up buying a an Alpine star jacket. I may have to purchase a new handel bar if i were to fix the handguard it to my renthal handle bar. The bar is too low and i won't be able to handel lock it if i were to fix it.

 

So far i have meet wierd, hideaways and adidas21( highly visible), it's nice knowing you

guys by the way. Hopefully will meet the others in the future.

 

suzuki2749>> you must have that extra special factor that the cik pon wants to take a closer look

 

toobez>> the fraser hill trip is $very interesting. hopefully that i can make it for that weekend. will confirm again once next month schedule is up.

 

i have just service my bike change, oil filter, 2 spark plug and oil for $70.

Is that ex?

By the way which is the shop that we can get our stock part? i am going to need to change air fllter soon and my mech quote $100++.

I am also looking at getting:

1. crash bar

2. Main stand

 

For those who have, fix his main stand & crash bar, appreciate if you can provide me the cost & name of the shop preferably with an address coz i am really bad with bike shops.

[manism]

hi guys, 1 more think i forgot to ask, if you were to ride via the north south highway, do we still need to pay for toll? if we do is the rate the same at that for cars?

 

Just asking cause i never ride across before

i do my oil change and carb tuning every 5000km..

 

every 10000km i will change oil, oil filter, spark plugs, carb tuning, wash air fliter..

 

ok.. i lie.. that is the recommended i believe.. but i do it more frequently than that.. depends on the number of trips, daily trip distance, etc etc.. for example.. before phuket and after i did a servicing.. 2700km.. only 12 days between servicings..

 

weekly i will check fluid levels, chain tension, lights and style factor..

 

pump air in tyres every 3 - 4 topups.. roughly 2-3 weeks lar..
