I agree with you. My RS v1 sure is reliable. Never had any problems, cheap maintenance, I've even added 40cm windshield to add some touring feeling to it lol. I wonder how I can reduce the vibration of the ride as I do experience minor fatigues after long rides.

Time to add sidebox and then you can be a wannabe ADV bike hehe

Also as a side note, scooters and automatic CVT bikes have significantly more FC compared to manual bike with same displacement or even higher.

Thanks. I think I'll stick to it. Better spend extra money on new tyres and suspensions 😆

Remember get hand glove (minimum requirement for safety) & kneel protection, motorcycle jacket and jeans for safety (as you travel long distance).

Kapchai with side panniers still not as wide as a big ADV without.

As for HCM, we have traffic jam with bikes. Anything bigger than a kapchai and scooter, really GG.
