Bro Madman...

 

i was thinking... ... what will happen to the fibreglass tank if we buang ?? not mean to be kiasee, but how thick is the fibreglass?? if buang light light, at most scratch... only heart pain...

 

but if buang big big.... will the tank leak? then got chance of fire??

 

sorry if i turned .... but it was a question that i was asking myself earlier... just tot if your lobang got tot about strengthing the sides of it yet?? dun wan to reduce safety for any price... :sweat:

just think how an egg looks like when it hits on the ground :P

[AhXiong]

wah... cannot be tat weak right???

[danieltanboonhuat]

dun scare people la.

[william_liu]

Previously when I skidded, my old bike's crankcase (The place where the engine oil goes...) cracked and was leaking.

 

So it depends on how you "buang"..... the metal used for your bike is not as strong as you think....

 

 

Another point to take note is many helmets comes with a fibreglass shell nowadays (My MHR FF is), if you've dropped it before (like me..... ) you'll find it's not that weak. (Mine actually bounced...... )

[ekardo]

bounced?? like a basketball you mean??

 

actually..how come helmut not made with a rubber cover? can reduce tension right??

[william_liu]

Then you head bounce like a ball, no harm but unfortunately your head also connected to your neck so you're likely to break your neck instead......

 

 

Anyway, yeah, my helmet bounced (once only lah...) slightly upon impact on the floor and rolled......

 

see already heartpain...... good thing not so expensive...

[ekardo]

ya..even when my cheapo helmut drop to the ground and cause some scratches, I also heart break...

[madman]

you see, that's the reason I said, I need to test-run it 1st. You want now, of course I can get it for you, but if got problems how? I dont want to be responsible you know...

 

I dont know if the tank is good or not, will leak or not etc...it's a great responsibility to bear, even after I sold it.

bro...

 

yah, agree with you... guess must see how bad the accident is... wat angle, speed and see hit what... but i guess i was hoping that the manufacturer will think about the safety as well... and maybe increase the thickness a bit on the sides?? i dun mind getting a 19L tank instead... still a big change for me lor...

 

guess have to wait for bro Madman's trial test 1st... :cheeky:

Well, if the finishing on the tank is not so shiny, then I think can consider adding a tank "bra", it can help protect the tank a bit more too I guess.......

 

Yah, still have to wait for the tests, so must be patient for now......

i so far never seen a tank bra for normal Phantom tanks liao... and somemore this 20L tank is so new... maybe Bro MadMan know a lobang can help us get customised Tank bra???

 

so there will be a new MO for the fibreglass tanks and tank bras??? customised tank bras??? sounds really interesting... heeheehee

 

Opps... sorry... I think my worries have gone
