Any inputs?
That's all I need to know.
Budget is an issue, just that with motowolf, rockbiker, star field, benkia and etc.
Are they all the same or is there one better than the other? Might as well ask around.

Helmet wise I'm lock into KYT TT and getting pin lock as well.
Thanks for the input.
Will look into Shark Ridill.

so far so good on my KYT TT helmet, tested with long hour wearing does not cause me any pain for my head, just that the helmet is lack of some air flow only.

for the jacket is very good for me and suite my budget need due to it is mesh jacket, so will not feel very hot after long hour wearing.

So I just had an accident this morning because of my own stupidity..
Trying to 'layan corner' at an unfamiliar road, ended up overshooting and slide into the grass sweat.gif

Looks like that corner has claimed a plenty of victim..

Thank God that all I had was minor bruises and bike was working fine even with small dent here and there.
A lot of passerby was offering help too.. I'm really moved by that gesture tbh
Still manage to ride it back home in 1 hour.

Reminder to all (and myself) to never EVER forget your gear.. and ride safely. I would've ended up losing some of my skins if not for these protection.
Some scratches and dent on the bike and helmet

Wow. Sorry to hear your crash.

But good to know your gear saved some skin. Bike looks like it took the crash remarkably well.

Paid Rawtech a visit today to finalize with En. Azis the design of her custom rear rack. On the topic of the bar riser, he did note that the cables might start to tug at full lock and cause all sorts of problems. So he advised my wife against it.

Her 700 CLX died again Thursday night while riding home with me after dinner in Ara Damansara. 3rd lane in fast-moving traffic on the NKVE at 9pm, ignition cut out and lost power all of a sudden while cruising at highway speeds. Power was on but it refused to start. It was a harrowing experience coz she didn't not have the power to safely cut across 3 lanes of traffic into the emergency lane and the bike came to a stop in the middle of the friggin highway. Fortunately, the large truck behind her managed to stop in time and block the traffic for us to push the bike to the side of the highway. Called a tow truck and dumped the motherfucker at Mforce immediately afterward.

She was supposed to ride it to Satun with me next week. Looks like she'll have to make the trip on the back of my bike as a passenger.

Enough is enough, that bike is DONE. We'll cut our losses and flog it off immediately when it comes out of Mforce. Damn near killed both of us that nite.

I am just glad both you are ok
