If using highway most of the commuting activities daily, better get atleast 250cc bike so can sustain the highway average car speed for a safer riding...
And tubeless tire with rim is a must.... but if goiing downtown KL which has side to side mirror jam.. Small CC scooter is the winner... Dont be like me ![]() |

QUOTE(naeezcose @ Jan 19 2020, 11:12 AM) Correct, experienced rode fz150i which only about 125kg..feel uncomfort during parking and reverse manually... i cant imagine those to handle more than 250kg.. looks smart and perfect when ride.. just cant imagine if unstable situation happened.. and what should i do.. Once you get the hang of it, then its everyday stuff.. Rid big bike to commute, as you go along, analyse the road ahead or parking space ahead, if you gut feeling (instinct) tells you that cant park or can't fit the gap during ciloking time.. it probably right... |

QUOTE(Karenalvin @ Jan 30 2020, 04:00 PM) Need to practive more, the gap between cars in Klang valley when during Jam in avearge still have space for bike to move in between, different if you need to go through jam in Penang George town for example since its sidemirror to sidemirror wide... Was commuting using an aircooled Murica cruiser (the one that will cook your balls when stuck on traffic) before with side panniers to KLCC and back then changed to boxer engine powered bike.. but now downgrade to a scooter (For commuting purposes) after I found out cost replacing clutch of liquid cooled boxer engine expensive as f!$$! hahaha... So not about the bike width when it comes to traffic jam, but more to conserve my clutchplates.. |
