QUOTE (fruitcakepablohoney @ Aug 12 2006, 09:43 AM)
The HJC carbon helmet is light, but can't comment if it's lighter than the Shoei or Arai coz

 

didn't get a chance to compare them! Only complaint is abit of wind noise but i don't mine coz

 

prefer to hear abit of outside noise.

 

:offtopic: Reservist? What's that ah? kekeke :cheeky: Actually i miss it cos give me a

 

chance to relax & de-stress!

 

Update us on Malacca trip! Cheers :thumb: [/b]

Thanks for review on HJC carbon. Hmm ... thought helmet weight is most important for fatigue-reduction, but after today's Malacca trip, had other ideas.

 

Anyway, had a splendid Malacca trip today & all ready to "relax" during next 2 weeks of reservist ... a great escape from the 4-letter word, "Work!".

 

8 bikes went on today's Malacca trip - a Spark 135, a scrambler 200, an RVF, a Gixxer 6, a TD675, a ZX-10R, a Gixxer 1K K5 and a big sports tourer.

 

Spendid!

 

Except for rain which temporarily spoilt the fun, the bulk of the journey's in the dry. Started off slow, except for the Gixxer 1K that flew every chance he gets. Slowly, everyone warms up to the action, and 2 groups were formed. The fast group had 5 bikes, averaging 160 km/h, hitting top speeds of 250+ km/h at times.

 

Realized that its not so much the weight of the helmet that causes rear neck muscles ache, but the wind blast once past 150 km/h i.e strain on frontal neck muscles. Since NSH will be the most travelled path (for me), think aerodynamics of the helmet & fitting is more important than weight.

 

Besides NSH, we had fun tooling around Malacca town as well. Seems like the supersports and superbikes are equally well-balanced for slow riding around town.

 

After lots of nice food and shopping, its time to return.

 

The RVF guy is fast! Daring at overtaking veheicles too. I could just manage to keep up with him (as I'm less garang in overtaking). All the big bikes constantly do 200 km/h on our way back. The slowing down for traffic and overtaking manuvours makes thing interesting, though tiring.

 

You guys should have joined in the fun! Ah, there's always another time ... cheers! :cheer:

I haven't got a chance to comment how good it is yet as i'm not the 'hard core'

type of rider but will be going for my first track session anytime soon as i've sign up for the Metzeler M3 launch at PG. I hope to give my 2 cents after i've done that. One thing i can say is, it looks bloody good! :thumb:

 

Btw, here's some info i got that make me feel that i've make the right choice.

First off, it can be adjusted while riding from turn to turn. Also, bcoz of it's unique mounting position,it remains generally out of harms way. Even a severe "lay down" will not effect it as it's protected from most crashes. The more common "telescopic dampers" are damaged even in the most trivial of crashes. Even dropping your bike can damage the telescopic type!

Also, Scotts damper has a "high speed" damping circuit. Most impacts & head-shake at the front wheel are high speed movements, where on the other hand, turning is a low speed movement. If you don't like the feeling the Scotts provides in turn, you can ADJUST IT OUT & STILL RETAIN THE RESISTANCE TO HIGH SPEED IMPACTS,NO OTHER DAMPER HAS THIS FEATURE!!! etc etc

red to telescopic type of dampers.

Reservist next 2 weeks leh ... anyway, can SMS me if got anything, see how. A ride would be nice! :bouncefire:

 

Suggestion: Why not form your own group and just join in the Malacca ride on the 26th Aug? Its a 2 day trip, but I'm only joining as a day-tripper i.e. I'll follow them up to Malacca, have lunch and come straight back to SG. If you guys come along, we can ride back together. :thumb:

Should be somewhere between 0715 to 0730 latest. Well, we moved of GP Esso real slowly, so if you had chased, you'd catch us. Well, mayb another time. Hope more people take the initiative to organize more mini trips. :D

hehe. Ya. Most probably gotta book an appointment at unity liao. My riding was about 90-100km/hr only. Btw, this is what i feel, da 1k/rpm to 4k/rpm was quite lag. But after around 5k/rpm, the pulling was very obvious.

 

What brand of windshield u guys recommended for a r6 05? I'm looking for high shield type (double bubble- the higher da better) hahaa..
