Alright josephsbs with you as my assistance I absolutely got no worries at all . I would like to make one slight addition to the itinary and that is meet @ West Coast Mac 7am and move off together. This will be more comforting for those who haven't crossed the 2nd link that frequently. Also interms of timeliness it would be better. What say u bro?

Hi guys...I think the timing not right. The last time we took about 4 hrs to get back to GP. Remember, you going at 80km/h this time. The last time we go at 120km/hr. Think uncle Richard can verify this.

[josephsbs]

timing is being amended as you type n will be up soon... still working it out

 

hi osfar,

suggest take out the time-table for now coz the initial timing wasn't for run-in speeds... re calculating estimated time now

[richsg300]

maybe think increase the speed to 110km/120km per hr

[osfar]

maybe think increase the speed to 110km/120km per hr

 

I hope you are not serious richsg300, I don't I can handle that speed on my Phantom.

[gnayed]

Greenie and I saw Richard's new ride on the road.. Awesome, nice no. plate also. You should be glad he asked for 110/120, not 210/220.

[Tanarthur]

Osfar, if you were to go any slower, might as well make it a 2 day one night tirp. Its not hard to handle 100 on a TA. You can ask Kmax how fast he goes that day.

 

As for the schedule planning. You guys can ask Arjen for his route planning he did on the last trip. Joseph, I believe you received a copy too the other time. Used it as a reference.

 

I think it will be better for all the bikes to be run in first. That way, you guys will not have the burden within you.

 

Btw, Richard new ride is what huh?

I think he running in his engine lah bro....thats why cannot whack yet....

[kmax]

why dont u guys try mersing or near by places (sg riggis?) first..

 

riding on NSHW is boring (on phantom, maxed out speed, no power to overtake bus, trucks).

*remember the chicken-carrier-truck which overtook us a few weeks back?

 

and ofcuz osfar is running in, so cant really go fast..

 

road to mersing is really nice.. u guys can check with uncle panda when he's going next.. btw, he told me his favourite seafood shop close down coz of moonsoon season..

route wise shouldn't be an issue... will refer to arjen's plan n also using GPS to lead the way so shouldn't get lost as long as PDA/GPS got juice. but need a simple mod to draw 12V power from my bike's batt first coz my power adapter is for cars' cig hole leh... probably go down to sim lim tower to look for gadgets this afternoon.

 

new bike is shown in his signature liow

 

how r u fren? haven't seen u in any activities since the trip... must be busy hunting female pillions. any luck? hahahaha

[josephsbs]

mersing sound like a good idea

furthermore can tag along with uncle panda ... swee

 

Malacca can wait till bikes are ready... yup, TA200 can go 100-120 easily but not when its still running in the FZ6 lagi no need to say lah

[richsg300]

mersing also not too bad.. maybe for the malacca trip we push it to a later date once the bike have run in finish

[richsg300]

cannot make it on 210/220km per hr. Engine still running in

[Tanarthur]

Joseph...was busy with work. Too many events to deal with... So cannot join in the activities..

[dreamwalk]

1 day trip to malacca is very rush. new riders may not be able to take it.

But your bike's battery is 12V isn't it? Same as cars.

 

With a typical GPS car-charger, there should be a built-in transformer to output as 5V (usually), some can even take in direct 12V if i'm not wrong.

yup... my pda n gps receiver come with adapters (converts 12V to 5V) that draw power from my car's "cigarette hole". i have a 3-way splitter but need only a 2-way for a pda n a gps receiver. i can connect the splitter directly to the batt but would like to make it detachable using a male-female link. this way, i don't need the splitter around when i don't need it

[gnayed]

Yeap, remember to waterproof it and get chargers which have built-in fuse. Mine just screwed up from the wet weather.
