Bro, I think I am using these currently...surprisingly at HKL, dun have our tires because I was there yesterday...so any other places I can go to???? Anyone???

specialc & embrace >>> can try stamford motors at AMK Autopoint. They bring in Pirelli Scorpion, Metzeller Tourance, Enduro 4, Michellin Anarkin. But no size for anarkin front n rear. For metzeller no size for front tyre, front need to use lasertec.

 

My choice is still metz combi with tourance at the rear and lasertec in front. Should be around $300++. Pirelli Scorpion one set is aroun $280++ if im not wrong.

Metz combo is a more all rounder. All these is feedback gathered from the riders here. Im going to change to Metz combo soon.

did u bought a brand new bike?

if u are...then ur bike is still running in...should be able to hit above 100km/h once u clocked around 800-1000km.

 

Max speed hit by one of the bros here is 140km/h. He cleared the meter. Normally u should be able to hit 120km/h in singapore roads. Rare occasion to reach 130-140km/h.

 

Our heaviest rider still manage to hit 110-120km/h with full luggage. Do u happen to be more than 200kg?

 

One day u should join us for meetups. Don't be shy...here the riders all very open-minded and friendly. Or in malay "tak tahu malu".

i brought 2nd hand bike. recently my friend check the bike engine, say the filter did not clean. Wondering if the problem is with the filter. sigh... And anyway i am hearing impaired person who can hardly hear, hope u dun mind if i come down to meet u all the guy, try to bear me for a moment. i may believe u all had never mix with the deaf bike group like mine. nvm... next time sms me at 91907610 for the meeting. And i hope u all guy can help me to find out what is wrong with my bike. Thanks very much....

Hi Alan Wong ... The riders here don't treat people any differently ... We really don't take into account about what other riders lack physically ... As long as you're willing to be part of the family you're most welcome to join us for chats, coffee and rides ... We share million of ideas and we try to look out for each other ...

So do join us and let the experienced diagnose your bike ... Who knows we too can learn a thing or two from you ...

 

Just look out for the meet up dates ... trust me they're a fun and crazy bunch ...

Anyone interested please PM me ur email address. I will forward you the necessary documents and all discussion will be discussed through email.

 

Those who are really interested but think that you are not ready yet, you got about 3 months to prepare yourself.

The rest is all about endurance, patience and determination.

AlanWong > Bro, doesnt matter. All men are the same. There are many ppl in this world who can see, but are still 'blind', who can hear, but are still 'deaf'. What's matter most is that you see and hear using your heart.

 

Embrace & SpecialC > Eh..... so far, the only place that Ive went to is HKL. It was recommended by a fella rider to go there if want to change tyres. Maybe can try the places as informed by Al-Simmons. Will help you to ask around for more options.

 

All > Anyone knows where to get reflective stickers for panniers?

alanwong >>> wats up brother? firstly congrats on your fine choice of a lean/mean/riding machine.. looking forward to meeting you during our next meetup doode! welcome to the family!

 

i think your bike just needs a good old servicing and you'll be blowing past me lar.. i can usually only hit 105 - 110km/h.. no doubt due to my on-body-luggage..

 

al-simmons >>> just out of curiousity.. who is the heaviest rider?

 

yem_paul >>> how's matin like his bday gift? if he does.. i picked it up.. if he doesn't.. al_simmons chose it..

 

keanan >>> i like what you said about people man and can't agree with ya more!

 

specialc >>> doode.. take your name out of the 'pending' and put it under 'comfirmed'.. somemore just bought a riding jacket! time to pop some cherry brother!

 

bobos >>> whats up doode? i dunno about any super-puma experience but my bunk mates in the army used to call me turbo.. mainly cuz sound like one when i sleep.. no doubt with a blow-off valve as well!
