[Blogs] Today while riding...

Mirrors will be a slight problem that you'll get used to eventually. For u-turns, have to make the turn in a single move and accelerate out. You can do it

This is a pic of me riding my Harley on the NSH. My beach bars are 36.5 inch wide. I dun think yours is as wide as mine

Thanks but U-Turn not a problem to me. I scrape foot pegs on U-turns.

It's I go on a straight road, got a 1 way U-Turn junction for other people on the other side to turn into my lane. I siam a bit to the side in case people's car bonnet come out I bang into it and die.

The junction not for me to U-turn one. I going straight ... ...

Yes, my handle bars are that wide.

Shadow's size handle bars plus a bit more width because of the throttle grips.

Yesterday while riding... saw a back windshield & shattered glass lying in the center of the center lane of cte, after the pie - cte exit.

I was going to amk ave 1 from orchard. I was in the center lane before the exit. Wanted to switch to left lane but many cars exiting, so i switch to right lane to overtake a van slowing down infront of me.

I was on the lane markings when i saw a piece of black object wth shattered glass coming out from under the van. i tot: "Whoa heng arr... got switch lane, else buang liao..."

I saw a fit wth its back pushed inside & a lorry wth damaged front in the shoulder of Braddell flyover. Den i think:"Knn can move the car to the road shoulder den leave the piece of glass there fuking almost wan to kill me & my pillion."

Guess staying alive needs luck & 6th sense

i saw Palmer from second link to PIE.. pushing some cars who do not give way

firefox87 · June 21, 2009

Don worry la.... bike will always be there for you... Buy also no point... waste parking and can see only... cannot ride.

bike will always be there of cos! but not if it's a HUSQVARNA TE250(MOTARD)!!! lol... that's what i thought too. like waste parking but at most 2-3 mths. sigh... but the sad thing is it's very difficult for me to get it on a loan unless i already have a class 2a.

Relac bro, wait til after u get 2A, den maybe u will be thinking tahan another year get class 2 straight le lor.

yeah... that's what i thought too but it's kinda impractical and hard for me to jump straight to class 2 without much cash to spare around.

Thanks but U-Turn not a problem to me. I scrape foot pegs on U-turns.

wah bro! how you scrape on U-turns?? for me, i can turn normal corners quite easily but when comes to U-turn, i have this funny feeling of the bike not gripping well with the road. and usually, if there's no car, it's just wide turning at only 30km/hr at the edge of lane 2. lol!

anyway, today while riding, sometimes i feel as if my front tyre hopped whenever i braked my front. i don't know if it's the road, the tyre pressure or the fork. hmmm...

and today while riding along woodlands ave 9, saw a highway patrol car with blinkers on parked at the side. i thought it was to catch speeders. as i passed by it, i saw a dead dog in front of the car. i don't know if the police was activated to resolve the dead dog issue or they are the one that knocked down the dog. hmm...

and also, the day before, my first time passing through a road block. got 3 policemen standing. one was using a walking talkie. another was waving me, not sure whether he means slow down, move on or stop. another was flashing the torchlight stupidly towards me. then as i stopped, the chinese guy with the torchlight shone the light to my face. irritating bugger! conversation is as followed.

police:u see here got road block don't know to stop ah? must stop there(points to a small signage behind me) but you stop so far until here.

me:(pulls down my earpiece) really ah? i thought the other guy made a sign to slow down. this my first time kena road block ah. i don't know must stop so far behind. i see u so i stopped beside u la. easier for u to walk to me.

police:ride bike can listen to earpiece ah? who say can listen?

me:sorry ah bro. i don't know cannot listen to earpiece. somemore now at night, must keep myself awake with music.

police:(give me a fcuked up look and proceeded to take a quick look at my totally stock bike) ok. you can go.

i wonder if he ever realised that he had talked to me as if i'm like the scum of society. must be the night duty that's getting on his nerves. imagine doing a roadblock at 2am in the morning while everyone else is already fast asleep. i pity his plight but there's no need to take it out on me eh.

evaakutenshi · June 22, 2009

today while riding near ubi area,

dropped my bike in the middle of the road while u-turning
struggled to lift it but couldnt, but suddenly, i felt the bike magically lift up.....from behind me, a pair of strong arms had come to my rescue..

alamak areal jiejie.hehehe.i tink it's time 2 take defensive course wors ^^ i go accompany u den w8 for u at bus stop inside the circuit der.wan wan?

RxZ with pillon whack whack whack 120km/h and suddenly.... RATATATTATATATATAATATATATTATAT......... and bike died.

And there is a strong stench of burning metal..... tried to kickstart.... it started briefly with a horrible knocking noise and died....

There goes the Z.... kee chia liao... piston knocking the block already...http://www.theultralightplace.com/images/piston2a.jpg

WAHAHAHAHA!pity the bike & pillion.tsk tsk.

Today tried squeezing to the front at a red light with my big handlebars, clutch lever knock on a lady's side mirror, K.N.S.... .... normally can go through one, but now new handlebars dam wide, luckily I already ready to stop, and the lever absorbed much of the impact, so no damages on both sides. The lady was part of a wedding convey, so in a good mood, even siam a bit to let me pass.

And the blind spot now changed, much bigger, at a U-turn junction I siam a bit, to the dotted line, in case got car come out, but got lorry in the next lane, so I came back to the center, the car behind assume I changing lane when he saw me siaming, chiong forward, and I didn't see him coming from behind, kena horned.

lucky she gd mood lei bro.imagine u tio those who kena pms arh.dat's it.haha

when slow, it's ok. it's when at 80km/hr or more and when hitting hard on the front brakes. the front part seems to bounce hard. and i did control the pressure on the front brake. so, i'm seriously lost on why it happen.

how to check brake disc? lol.. then they go put road block at woodlands ave 7 near to sembawang area. how many cars can they stop over there?

Yeah. I had this once too.

I just smiled at him and said "Yeah, Starbucks coffee"

Bugger smiled back and waved me by.

hahaha.. that's good one!

firefox87 · June 22, 2009

Eh, bounce hard is quite vague.

maybe front kantong soften liaoz? test with new bike (fren?), same model, see got diff not.

to see if discbrake pobem, main stand roll front tire, see disc brake is turning incircles or in oval. Also can see from front view if disc brake left right left right.

Today while riding!!!!!

I checked my blindspot as per usual, BUT! Ning Nong Piang, din see a TRUCK in my blindspot!

check, clear, proceeded to change lane, den see!!!!! - truck going that fast?!

anyways, thereafter i lane split along the lines, sped up and siam him.

Your handlebars are that wide? Yup, squeezing through traffic will take a few extra seconds of calculation. I have to do the same with my Harley and the bike's air cooled!

knucklehead · June 22, 2009

some female drivers are really hopeless.

1 - was making a right turn towards ulu pandan, green right turn arrow was on, i was in the proper lane, riding behind this car. moved off for quite abit already when suddenly the bugger stopped. jam braked and was inches away from the car's backside, and the taxi behind me had to horn. bugger then inched to the left. like wth??? want to say she nearly drove over the center divider also no sia. what for stop in the middle of nowhere? really felt like banging her car door. wonder how she pass her class 3. non p-plate somemore...

2 - traffic was clear. this lady just had to zoom past me. but i'm kinda impressed at how she drove thru gap. she took the bends like a pro man.

3 - i was riding out of prince george park residences carpark, this bugger(prolly in his daddy's merc) was driving in the middle of two lanes. bleahh ~

4 - another lady driver, driving a BMW, overtake inches away from me, got to my front, went to the right, then realized she missed the exit to AYE, then cut back into my lane and drove diagonally to get to AYE.

5 - was riding along dover road. a man suddenly turned out from a carpark. immediately stopped wen he saw me, luckily i was on the other lane. saw him raise his hand, raised hand back at him and gave a nod.

finally, a good samaritan made my day, to a what turns out to be a horrible day of riding.

Lolz.... don say lady drivers till like that la... can be any c o c k a nathan behind the wheel also do funny actions.... [my own personal prejudice is those kiddy drivers... I.E. P plate Behind the wheel of their daddy's car coming out all sorts of funny patterns...]
