We can think bike and think biker but it is those shithead riders that cannot be helped. Cos their heads are so full of shit already. They seem to think that KL is a lawless kampung. No need to stop at lights, no need helmets, no need to slowdown while lane splitting, no need to use indicators... and the list goes on and on. Oh, they do use the horn very often though!

The other day I was going to PJ from Old Klang Road. I had stopped at the traffic light and when the lane on my right stopped, it was my turn to go as my side turned green (I wanted to turn to the right at the junction) but the motorcyclists from the opposite lane, there were 2 of them just charged on. I rode on and honked, forcing one of them to stop via emergency brake. I stopped, stared at the bugger and went on. After that he just shot off! And his side was still red! It was my right of way, my side was green while his was red...what was he thinking? Or he doesn't think? For these, to me, it doesn't matter if they have a family, it doesn't matter if they have parents waiting for them, it doesn't matter if they are a sole breadwinner...their attitude negates all care and sympathy for them should anything happen.

So, is he stupid or what? So, just because he rides a lower cc bike, he doesn't need to obey rules? Why do these people keep doing these things that give us other bikers a bad name?

Like I said before, they treat the city like a kampung and sad to say, there is just too much shit in them that they cannot be taught or helped anymore.

you can take the bike out of rempits but not the other way around

I was baffled by the samsengness of one guy riding a BMW GS..the big one! i think maybe f800gs

you know the exit from NKVE to Subang toll? I was riding try to get from the exit lane (from shah alam) to the motorcycle lane on the other end of the toll booth..while carefully signalling to cars..suddenly this guy zipped right in front of me and I was forced to emergency brake..luckily the car behind is not so closed..

fucking rempit..while riding with the offroad style..you know, standing on the bike..fuck him

Thank God it was a GS... phew..

Some bikers think.. the bigger the bike they think owned the road since in their mind saying by paying 350 RM road tax has all the right of way..

We need start to invest in motorcycle cam..

Agreed with you. Here's my theory: those are rempits who got rich.

I don't deny there are superbikers who ride like rempits too. Maybe their background can tell why they behave like this

Doing U Turns on a motorcycle.

Alot of videos on youtube, so far this is quite comprehensive with alot of explanations.

In keith Code's vid, it is proven that counter steering works!

bikers allowed on federal highway because...
QUOTE
KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 12 ― Authorities may have waived action against motorcyclists using the main carriageway of the Federal Highway because of upgrading works on motorcycle lanes, Works Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof said.

He said the Public Works Department (PWD) has been upgrading the 8.1km stretch of both bounds of the motorcycle lanes from Kota Darul Ehsan to Kelab Golf Subang since August 2017. Work is expected to complete. Work is expected to complete by April this year.

Federal highway under DBKL, SPRINT & PWD??
QUOTE
The 28.5km stretch of Federal Highway is under the jurisdiction of three different authorities, Works Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof confirmed.

He said the dedicated motorcycle lanes on both bounds of the highway spanned between Mid Valley in Kuala Lumpur and Sungai Rasau in Klang.

“Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL) manages about 2.4km of the motorcycle lane from Mid Valley while SPRINT is responsible for about 2km of the lanes until Kota Darul Ehsan,” he told Malay Mail recently.

SPRINT is a concession company that operates SPRINT Highway in the capital city.

From Kota Darul Ehsan until Berkelley Roundabout in Klang, Fadillah said the motorcycle lanes that stretched 24.1km fell under the Public Works Department's (PWD) responsibility.

OMG... patut la kelam kabut. icon_question.gif doh.gif

QUOTE
Fadillah was responding to questions raised on who is actually in charge of the country's first highway after the abolition of its tolled status this year.

He added that, based on information from the Malaysian Highway Authority, there are currently no prohibitions for motorcycles to use the main carriageway of toll highways even if these highways have dedicated motorcycle lanes.

So means saman issued by pols traffik is not applicable? hmm.gif
And all those samans previously is not valid?

QUOTE
“The motorcycle lanes under the Public Works Department's jurisdiction were gazetted on July 1, 2001 under PU (A) 188. However, no specific prohibition for motorcycle to enter mainline was made at that time,” he said.

He pointed out that motorcyclists were encouraged to use motorcycle lanes for their safety, but the question on whether they should be prohibited from using the main carriageway needed to be viewed from many angles.

So no prohibition but only "encouraged". confused.gif
Apa macam ni ek? brows.gif hmm.gif

QUOTE
He said factors such as motorcycle configuration, such as whether it is two wheels, three wheels  and its horsepower, the design features of motorcycle lanes, and the time of use should also be taken into consideration.

He said the length of motorcycle lanes will have numerous provisions of ingresses and egresses to allow motorcyclists to enter into the lane from the main carriageway, or to exit from it to join the interchange ramps.

Correct. I have seen Can-Am Spyder getting stuck in the motorcycle lane before. rclxub.gif doh.gif

The actuall lorong motor in fed highway still conside OK ... before they did all the stupid alteration and construction like now i can do run using HD Electra Glide from Klang all the way to midvalley, just need some skill to manouver between kapchais.....

But now.. when they do everlasting construction and some part they diver the traffic and put stupid barrier, even kapchai finds it very hard to go through it..

this vid went viral since yday..

captured a situation where it involves a motorcyclist tht could possibly end up in a very serious road accident.

a biker should alway assume tht cars will do this kinda &@_$*
so one way to avoid is to switch to the left most lane, or slow down.

bike lane all the way to mid valley is under construction here and there, if u go in, you are forced to go out again a few times. very troublesome,

so they rather just one shot use the fed hiway ignoring the bike lanes, until it is fully 'done' up.. which is dono until when.

cos now they are building a new highway ( forgot name ) all the way to pantai there. so very messy now, for a few years ....

Temporarily it's legal to ride on Federal Highway. It's on newspaper some time ago. This is due to too many stretch under constructions.

I avoided few choke point traffic jam prone area within fed highway by using bike lane, however due to some infinite constructions on going sacrificing the bike lane... I rather go fight with cars and other road users on the Fed Highway
