new comer in this thread, please add me in
Riding a 10 year old EX5 classic with electric starter. (from my dad)
EX5 is pretty great, half throttle can reach 100kph on Penang Bridge (but damn scaryyyy, feel like floating in the air

). Usually I'm doing 80kph on coastal highway about 1/4 throttle, the speed is just nice

So far no modification, just changed to the widest tyre supported, using fully synthetic Esso engine oil and V-power.
Just wondering if there is any options to change the braking system? I would like to have a disk brake at the front wheel

disc brake for the front brake
oppss my next oil treatment is on 2nd dec,.....seems like my front fork create "sound" when press during rain...all the time its safe n sound....old prob...fork service is around 30 bucks per forks

Yo guys,i met an accident 2 days earlier....
I was riding this suzuki fx110 and was cruising at nearby taman around 60km/h....
When i came to a T junction and i wanna turn left i got no chance to slow down nia....
The brake dont work properly and the next thing i know is that i langgar terus to those cement divider.....
I was tossed from the bike like a superman and so do my friend...
We both are injured but i'm more serious....
Knee bleeding,right arm bleeding,left palm bone abit not normal and many many bruises
And about the bike,front tyre pancit,coverset scratched deeply and the engine cover pecah...
Lesson learned:
Check break to see whether it works properly before going out...
Speeding is dangerous when making turns...
So glad i'm saved now,just suffering from the pain...
I nearly pengsan 2 somemore,once at the crash site,one at clinic....
my 1st accident was a car "slash" from right...it was near an exit from highway,i was @ 50-60kmph...stuck on the bike....bike fell & turn in the middle of the road,thx god there was no fast car that time....manage to get up...2 despatch came to the rescue..1 help lift my bike clear from the road...1 more guy chased the car who hit me
managed to caught the car...the driver came,with gf scared, asked for instant money & report L8,his car was tiny bent,my bike was ok,only the brake pedal broken & scratch,some coverset broken...my right leg & arm bleeding...1 week mc
