my fxr150 fuel mileage on average is 30km/l. top speed is about 140km/h++, I did maintained full throttle with this bike while carrying another passenger from negeri sembilan till bangi, bike is still in good condition (didn't go pass red line as suggested by the motorcycle manual). So far the bike haven't break down on the road yet which is nice. Went to Kuantan before with average speed of 120km/h. The fuel is also quite big; 15 litres and it could last 400kms with one full tank.

the bike has nice brakes, if installed with steel braided brake hose and good brake pads, you can do stoppie anytime. LCD does fade, and it costs about RM580 for a new one, mine started to fade and I'm sad

because of the standard front and rear disc brakes, when you're riding in the rain the brake will usually be weak because of the water from the rain accumulating of the disc brakes (also lowering the temperature of the brake disc). When you keep pulling hard the brakes, it will reach to a point where the brakes gain back the grip, thus the risk of tire lock which is dangerous.

oh yeah? hav to try this yet or u saw ur fwen use this customize? but my fwen said u should bigger ur front spocket if u achieve top speed.. that is y now i'm confuse which one is the right..

When you are riding in the future you will appreciate that they have taught you about all these stuffs.

You would normally use the hand signals to let others know what you're going to do because some of them are moron drivers and in some special situations.

Some people doesn't know that their bike's signal or rear light already broken, and for your information, I do check my lights sometimes.

And I read the brochures from MSF (motorcycle safety foundation , USA) which have better information on safe motorcycle riding.

then u miss what is biking all about.

well...i ask the marshall la to do all the sign thing...
i'm just follow from behind..
hehehe

how about ppl behind u? lol

chill important thing is you learn, regardless you think it's useful or useless, but when the time comes then you'll know why they teach you..

Guys, what's the best sprocket setting for pickup and top? For my 125Z. Now using 15-39. Somehow it lacks at the top end

for 125z get the original sprocket.. its called original for a reason and its set to that speed for a reason..if u wanna modify untill fly 150-200.. stay off the road or get a better bike. if u wanna rempit go aim at the wall or aim go under the lorry let them kill u before u kill someone else..

but if u wan typically built for speed not pick up heres a no brainer. smaller front sprocket with bigger rear ones should get the job done.
my previous TZM using 14-42 pickup kinda slow but still ok and top speed is reasonable.
now using CBR so not so sure.


for taking motorcycle test without hand signal i think i knnow one near inti collage nilai... i took my b full there and i see those b2 fella never use hand also.

Not that I wanna rempit la bro. Just wanna get the best out of my bike. My bike also stock...only mod the zorst and sprocket I'm going to get my B Full prolly in another 2-3 months anyway

wan, not bro but bra

best of ur bike? stock is best of ur bike. its balanced. no use having more speed ended up bike at workshop and blow ur pocket to repair. its not designed that way. its a commuter bike, not sportbike.
