I am going to ge a FF for my Zed Guarantor too, FF really protect the head, but the problem is the cusion in FF helmet tends to stick close to the face thus its not so wise to put a make up on the face...

 

But asking a girl not to put make up & go out, seems like mission impossible

i dont see why not possible, then what about all the ladies out there wearing ff helmets?

[Raptor]

Since beauty is only skin deep whilst ugly goes to the bone... advise her that since the face skin can be easily scraped off in an accident, protecting it should be the first priority.

 

Wear full face NOW to protect the face and teeth, not wear full face LATER to hide the facial scars and broken teeth.

well if it's a personal helmet, why not? yes the stuff will stick onto ur helmie but the cushion is removable for wash and tat is wat i do once in a while. can nv share helmie cos it's a hygiene issue.

When they lose all their front teeth and knuckles....then they will understand.

 

It is idiots like these that spawn the saying.... "He who laughs last, laughs the best".

 

Just let them be. There is an a****** born every other minute.

Yesterday, when I was driving home from work, this Malaysian registered car was tailgating me from Cluny Road and all the way into Dunearn Road.

 

I had a good look at his face and he has Indian features. That was how close I was to being able to see him!

Just before the traffic light of Perling town just after the toll booth, there is a row of shophouses on the left side.

 

There is a motodiam there by the name of Hong Keong.

 

It is the CLEANEST motodiam I have ever seen in my 30 years of bike riding. Due to some water contamination of her engine oil, Shedevil21 had an oil change done there on Good Friday morning before we hit PG.

 

The concrete floor is clean, very little oil stains, almost white. Tools are hung up like a display board, screws, nuts, bolts and washers are all segregated and stored in separate containers.

 

Before he drained the engine oil.. the mechanic placed a sheet of old newspaper on the floor then the oil container!!!

 

Cost of oil change plus new O ring for oil filler cap.... RM18.

Ah.....that's a nice thing to know.

 

Anyways, that day after track, the PG highway was so jam....when trying to merge into the PG highway, I was in the blindspot of this Kancil. I do not know if it's my lucky day, or the driver being really alert, or is it the Thailand Charm I kept in my suit that the Kancil inched out abit and actually saw me and went back into it's lane

 

I only remembered pushing my right handle to swerve a bit and do not even have time to wave thanks to the driver for being alert on a rainny day!!!

 

It's those situation when you turn your head to check blindspot and the car infront of you also inche out when you're done checking blindspot :sweat:

Give it about a month. If by one month no love letter, should be safe. However, I did hear from other riders that they ever got their summons 2 months after the offence. Stand by your ang pow first. I that you won't get that summon...

Yay, last night while travelling home on my X1, a NSR150SP with P-plate decided to show me how fast his bike is on the straights and how to corner sitting in an upright position at Upper Thomson...

Yup....that's why I love riding my Wave.....I often get P platers showing me how fast their bikes are on the straights, but I lose them on my mirrors during corners....

 

And then they would also love to pickup again on the straights to pass me by so near......should I try to inche out a bit next time and scare them? Nah, 2 wrongs does not make a right.

Yesterday, while chatting with the guys outside Biketech21, we heard a loud bang followed by metal scraping metal sounds. Rushed onto the road and saw that a Toyota Altis had grazed against a parked Mercs and a van.

 

Thought the vehicle will stop but it did not, just carried on its way down Dunlop St towards Serangoon Road. Needless to say, Baba the Baik, decided that we should chase the car down on our bikes and get the driver's particulars coz this was case of 'Hit and Run'.

 

So I got on my Motard and Baba decided to be pillion and we chased the car down at Serangoon Road in front of Mustafa's. Lo and behold, driver was old lady with husband (assumed) as vehicle commander. Both act blur even though Baba was shouting at them to pull to the side. Baba's voice is so loud that I am quite sure alot of other cars pulled to the side instead!!

 

The whole left side of the Altis was ripped open at side mirror level from front to back like as though someone used a can opener on it. When Baba ran out of voice, he locked the car number on his hand phone and we went back to Biketech.

 

Gave the info to the owner of the Mercs who was the old man who owns the liquor store across the road.

 

This type of driver also got. Try and run away, kena confronted still don't stop.

Do you think he would dare to try this stunt with shedevil21 at PG?

 

Lately I have noticed that I tend to get 'blown at' by small bikes, Kips, TSRs and SPs and Superfours when I ride the DRZ. Blown at as in overtaken at high sped in close proximity even though the lane is empty on the their side.

 

Don't seem to suffer this kind of irritating attention when I am on the CBR1000.

 

You guys face the same problem??

I ride Rxz also got this prob leh. But not when riding my R1..

[ET]

i face this evry working day with my x1 to changi base blown by all the stuipd mooth fookin faster bikes like 150 and 400 but i mean you dont have to tailgate a slow bike like me right, though slow at least give me time to signal and keep left, kenna every day same thing will happen when the bikes behind you will start to give you the clutch in and blow throttle thing so as to ask you to give way, i said you are dumb to do that, unless you clutch in and rev to a redline rpm, then will i give way......but got respect from the bigger cc like 600 and 1000....I mean they dont even bother since i am of a smaller cc but at least they tend to allow me to signal and give them half a space before they oepn the throttle and cut past me like the wind...

 

So i experimented a couple of times with my 750...and i mean none of the smaller cc with blow or even keep close to my mirrors, i mean this sux....the person behind shld respect the person in front and give them the respect regardless of what bike they are riding unless they are road hogging lar..TPE travel at 20km/h~(-_-)"

I dare to say he would not do the same thing at Circuit.

 

Just last week on the same road but in the other direction, I get blown away by RXZ, S4 and a R6 ! all blowing past me together.

 

and also same like u, I do not face this problem when I'm on my Red1.
