QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jul 24 2022, 12:39 PM) as a fellow naked bike rider, i can confirm that a taller windscreen will help. as long as u can get the wind directed above ur chest, u wont get pushed back as much. Also, choice of helmet matters as well. some helmets cuts through the air better than others. this will help reduce neck fatigue on longer riders. Agreed, i have experience riding with and w/o windshield and it's totally day and night especially since i commute around 80% highway 20% city. Really feel the wind on highway with higher RPM. In term of riding gear, I'm always wearing glove, fulface , safety boot and jacket as standard requirement. Nothing special or branded but at least those gears already safe my life like twice now. iirc last 2 weeks ago, on my way to work around Bukit Jalil. There has been some minor accident. I don't know what actually happened but i saw the aftermath. There is this lady who rode LC. I saw her crying while sitting on the divider. At first glance, there is nothing problem until i saw her foot. Pretty sure some of her toes in FUBAR condition. At that time she wearing those fancy selipar. I guess that should be expected 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️

Don't say slippers I don't even dare to wear sports shoes or normal shoes while riding. Even if I wear running shoes when I ride nearby less than 3km, illl make sure I ride slowly on the left lane.

Dont know why people dont wear proper footwear and gloves when on the bike.
the 2 most easily fucked up parts other than your head even in a slow speed crash. Even so on a big bike. you jatuh bodoh at a stop light also can end up crushing your legs and foot.

QUOTE(persona93 @ Jul 26 2022, 02:14 PM) many roadblocks targeting these gang dy  Took my wife on her first ride up to Gohtong Jaya on Sunday. Memang kena tahan roadblock. She had L stickers on her bike, so the cop definitely interrogated her how come ride big bike but L license only? Luckily she brought along the pass slip from her successful B Full test 2 weeks ago & explained she just hadn't the time to go to JPJ to update her license after UTC gave her the run-around last week. Less bikes going up Genting nowadays as a result of the roadblock, probably due to a lot of riders not having the required license & having illegal loud exhausts designed to wake up the dead. I think that's a good thing.

Drove to Gohtong Jaya Sunday morning, saw a gang of rempit bikers hiding at a junction before the block Many got blocked, and their riding gang waiting ahead haplessly *** clapping in joy *** Those exhaust modders (include cars) that has ability to wake up the dead should really be kicked into longkang

QUOTE(ZZR-Pilot @ Jul 21 2022, 05:45 PM) The Z650 did an average of only 1600km per year since 2017...?? Check carefully. Make sure it isn't a rebuilt accident wreck with a new dash. Friend of mine recently found a gem, 2017 registered 2018 with only 1,817km genuine on clock. Owned by an avid bike enthusiast with a few bikes including X-ADV750, XMax. Friend celebrating this gem and his dream bike finally came true!
