[silverwing73]

at the end of the call to the town council, did u get the name of the person u spoke to? i suppose that fellow will just pretend 'he' didn't receive your call. if u have gotten his name, maybe 'he' will be 'scared' and highlight this matter up to his higher authorities.

 

Yup, I gotten his name how was the outing today ? would have love to join along but just came back from T3 with my family...shack out already

check this out before you head into johore (causeway or 2nd link) thinking of substantial savings pumping malaysian petrol

 

for malaysia petrol you pump shell Vpower right?

i think ESSO one is slightly cheaper around 1.9.. cannot remember the exact amount.

but i doubt there is a substantial differences too.

ya lor... i tried playing around with different Sg & Msia petrol prices, different distances and FC, etc... savings also not much

e.g. $2.309 for sg petrol (v-power) and RM1.85 (some cheaper low octane petrol) but savings also only around $15 & $8, via causeway and 2nd link respectively. but this is not apple to apple comparison leh

 

factor in the jams and long queues, really wonder if it makes sense at all

Wow ! That analysis certainly shows the actual worth for just going across for fuel. I use about 15 liters of 95 octane per week just getting to & from work in S'pore - so it wont make sense to go there and back (about 50Km trip return) once a week. Unless go across for other reasons like shopping for groceries and makan2.

 

But if was using a bike with tank capacity of at least 24 liters then just maybe ????

[silverwing73]

I look at it this way.

 

Singapore petrol 95 = $2.116 less 15% discount (in-house 5% + credit card 10% (max) I think )= $1.798 per litres

 

Singapore petrol 95 = $2.116 less 5% discount (in-house 5%)= $2.010 per litres

 

Malaysia Petrol 97 = RM1.92 = $0.82 per litres (based on 2.28)

 

Note : not everybody here owns a credit card that provide them with further discount of petrol price. the most they will have is the petrol station in-house promotion card which give them the maximum of 5 - 8 % discount.

 

So the saving is obvious, I just cannot understand how the saving can only be $2.40. Time wasted and waiting time cannot be justified or quantified unless it is during working time when we went in to pump.

 

Distance also play a part, the further you stay, the more petrol you burn to cross the bridge for petrol. compared to west sider like me. it make sense.

 

I live only 10km away from the petrol station.

cost figures in the worksheets are dynamic and will change according to the parameters (e.g. tank capacity, reserve level, petrol prices, discounts, exchange rates, traveling distances, toll amounts, etc.)

 

to use the worksheets, one has to:

(a) select the suitable worksheet for intended route, i.e. via 2nd link or via causeway, then

(b) change the parameters according to your situation (e.g. petrol discounts, toll, FC, traveling distances, etc etc)

note that distance to cross 2nd link bridge is about 1.9km and not 5.14km as stated in the worksheet

otherwise the figures are meaningless... savings shown is based on the parameters inputed

 

logic will tell us that riders living near causeway or 2nd link would obviously incur less cost, thus more savings compared to others who have to travel longer distances

 

p/s: this worksheet is shared as a goodwill and NOT intended to persuade people whether they should or should not pump petrol in M'sia... riders are free to agree or disagree with the calculations mah

 

i know of riders who live in the east but pumps at GP Shell via 2nd link kinda weekly. savings are secondary to them as they enjoy the cool evening rides and bike companions more than the dollars and cents

 

freedom of choice mah

just came back from Jb via woodlands

ok here my analysis i pump 15.2litre 1.92per liter

so total 29.20RM use the rate for 2.2 is to 1 is total damages 13.2SGD.

 

to and from jb is 22km. assuming my fuel consumption is 22.

so total is 44km which is 2liter.

 

if i will to pump in SG. 15.2liter minus 2liter equal 13.2liter.

so assuming the SG petrol is 1.9 total damages 25.08

 

total saving 11.88dollars. per week

 

47.52 per month

 

570.24 per year that is provided i'm using woodland and very time just nice

swee swee reach there with empty tanks.

[Ni3KiDz]

Just fishtailed my SW in the MSCP. Lucky was going slow...

Ground was a bit wet cos ppl washing the floor.

But this never happened with my x9 on Michelin Gold.

Now a bit worried.

 

My mech recommends Michelin Pilot Sport (since can't get 'Gold' for SW).

Any comments on this tyre?

 

 

Recently i jus change to pilot sport for my sw 400

I can say it good........

BUt not yet try it on wet floor so cannot comment much..

does it matter to u?

[spin37]

go slow on wet roads ! Pilot sport is very slippery

 

But dry road its

[silverwing73]

Actually I don't understand why Honda comes up with Silverwing but yet the stock tyres that comes with it is not available as replacement when it is worn out ?

 

Can't the bike shops just import IRC Japan in themselves.

 

The best tyres to me is stock tyres as it is made to fit the Silverwing under whatever condition. I am very happy with my IRC Japan tyres:angel:

 

Anyone wishing to sell them please let me know
