You shd have exited earlier and not caused that rider and pillion to fall.

 

Its very weird tat u r suggesting this. Firstly we ve to understand giving way is something which shoudl be done in safety. Of coz safety is a perspective, thus if someone dun give way, e one behind can grumble all they wan but still should wait.

 

Next base on wanfazer's description e rider behind tailgate thus when e front bike brake, e rider behind couldnt react and fell. Tats e fault of e front rider?

 

Hope u take a moment to read my msg. Else u may be in e situation where u might taolgate e rider in front due to inpatience and accident happen.

 

I dun wish an accisent on any fellow riders thus always trying to remind riders tat lane split is a risky act. Dun make it more risky by trying too hard to overtake or tailgating. If anything happens, with cars left and right, luck may not help.

Let me guess, dat gsxr1000 dun have side mirrors dats y he dunno wats coming ? Hehe... Riding an elephant, i wud say its a challenged to lane split... If e jam is very jialat, i'll find e nearest exit n find my way to my destination rather than to hold back other riders lane splitting coz some riders likes to tailgate, no patience to allow me to find a safe gap for me to move in n give them space to overtake... It happens b4, tis bike with female pillion, weave in n out of heavy traffic along CTE then tailgating very close behind me... I feel pressured sia, juz as i was about to find a space so dat i can get out of tis dangerous situation, skali it happens... A car juz closed in to e white lines n i've to brake to avoid collision.. I glimpsed at my side mirror n saw e rider n pillion already on e floor.. Stopped my bike, on e hazard light, stopped e traffic n help e rider to push e bike to e road shoulder...

Chill guys..

 

I always "sort of" tail gate people but within a safety distance.. Personally, I would prefer if there's any gap, left or right, as long he/she can move in safely, I would keep on maintaining a safe distance that doesn't pressure.. the pressure will kicks in only after they already knew I'm there.. the traffic is pack.. they can move in safely and allow me to pass but they refuse to.

 

From there, I wan to change lane but I can't, so I move into the right gap that will allows me to overtake him dangerously because he doesn't allow me to pass.. (this take places after 5-10min of following behind that rider)

*I tried high beam and light 1 horn.. but even worse.. he purposely "block" me from overtaking.. =.=""

 

btw, I ride a 2B 2 stroke KR bike.. and this only happen with same 2B bikes.. CL2a and CL2 I never encounter such problem.. (they are mostly running-in) Else i wun have a chance to overtake them politely also.. :p

 

*I always wave to whoever purposely let me pass.. can see clearly de.. ;)

Kindly read thru at least the intro section first before decide to post any comments.... thanks... :cool:

 

Please proceed to this website/web link if you guys have any technical issues on Kawasaki Kips/KR150, I'll update the 1st POST as and when there's a new question. Newbies questions on the top as well. :)

No side mirror still ok, provided your blind spot checking is swee and lighting fast as well as make sure you have enough dist in front.

 

I ever jam braked because the car in front has stopped but I was checking my blindspot.

Aiya its not like I purposely never put mirror, my mirror is so small I only notice lights but can't see much in the mirrors, it was like that for a year or so until I changed bike hahahaha. But of course, when I go touring, use huge ass mirrors.

Actually papabread is correct. Mirrors r not meant to check blindspot. Theres a reason y blindspots r called blindspots. Becoz these spots r in zones where ur mirrors side or rear (cars) cant c, thus e name blind-spots. To check blind spots, u turn ur head and look

Hehe i juz disturb him only lah bro... Sad to say there's riders who tink dat its cool not to have side mirrors or mirrors where they can only see themselves... Side mirrors have saved my a** from those tailgaters n authorities coz i can see them coming hehe...

Eh, when I didnt have mirrors cuz they were broken, I literally turned my whole head to look behind. Clear enough, I go in.

I ride 2B bike at average speed on the left lane (usual ah), slightly above speed limit. Got this Super 4 from behind rev like near red line and cut in front of me to take a left turn at the junction ahead... I know I'm not THAT slow. The Super 4 like e-brake sia to make the left turn cornering.

 

And alsoooo I hate taxi's and other cars tailgate motorcyclists. Most of the time, the motorcyclists all riding reasonably within speed limit, but all the cars think they racer. All tailgate so near, I can imagine a lot of accidents caused by tailgating cars.
