Went down this afternoon to FSC around 3 plus, upon reaching there heavy downpour... jammed there for almost 2 hours. Well, saw the "Speed Control" stock in and asked Kenny about the price.. after thinking about it.. KIV for the time being.. Cos me not into the fast rider side and also always travelling at 80-90km/h. But will consider it maybe after a year lah... now since the bike is very new.. dun want to change yet...

 

My suspension is still working fine for me no doubt still at 1st level... maybe after some times will adjust if I have the bouncy feeling.. but the tyre wise... really need feedback from you guys.. how's the performance in raining day like this afternoon?? Just now while travelling on the road after my class around 10pm. While riding past the white strips, skipped a bit lah.. does the Gold Standard face this problem too?? Cos my previous tyre which I used "Metzeler Laser" don't have this problem at all.. and I felt super safe with it.. the grip is super too... and that's why I am waiting for the Metzeler tyre for X8 to be in market also... Hope they will cater to the need...

 

Disar, so do you face the same problem during rainy day? Like skipping while moving on the white strip or especially those near the Zebra crossing or even those reducing speed strips...

 

Just hope that the rainy day will go fast as really not comfy with the skipping thingy. Hope you guys can let me know the feedback soon....
