Rear Brake Issue

Hamacci — Wed, 03 Jun 2020 19:19:18 +0800

Dear Bikers, I'm having some issue with my rear brake after I restart my bike 2 months plus Post MCO.
It was functioning as it should before the lock down
I dont feel any bite AT ALL. Tried to use it at Low Speed, High Speed and Slope, no feeling at all...

Was thinking if there is anyway to troubleshoot the problem for me to try and spend time fixing it myself "Since CMCO- Very Free"

Or Sifu-Sifu sekalian think it'll be better to leave this to the mechanic??

Full Face Helmet

Hamacci — Tue, 25 Jun 2019 19:13:19 +0800

Hey guys, I'm kinda looking forward in getting a new full face helmet budget around 500 ish.

Hoping to get 1 with better wind noise reduction (Previously using Nolan n64 Smart)

A drop down shades will be a plus (if there is such feature on full face)

Looking forward to any input by fellow sifus.

Cheers

2012 Er6N Pillion Foot Peg

Hey guys, I've recently bought a 2nd hand 2012 Er6N bike. Has been riding alone just fine. But when I fetch my wifey, she complaint that her foot Peg is vibrating like no tomorrow and ticklish at time.
I've compared it to my friend's 2010 Er6N Pillion Peg but his is very sturdy without any issue.

Wondering if anyone having the same issue?
Wondering if there's anyway to improve this?

Please advice...

Riding in Vietnam

Hamacci — Mon, 13 Aug 2018 14:25:58 +0800

Hey guys, I'm planning a trip to Vietnam few month later and was wondering if it'll be a good idea to travel around free and easy by renting a bike there.
I'll be traveling with my wife and was curious if it'll be a bad idea for us to rent a bike to travel around the town as a rider with pillion.

To be honest, I've always been visualizing Vietnam's street to be full of bikes rather than cars, as such I would like to ask for opinion from fellow rider here that has been riding at Vietnam

Any input regarding this matter will be helpful and greatly appreciated.

Honda Bike

Hamacci — Mon, 19 Mar 2018 21:50:09 +0800

Hello Sifu-Sifu semua, I'm currently in the process of pursuing my B Full license and currently eyeing on a Honda CBR500R. But something has been bothering me though, as in why Honda Malaysia did not bring in their CBR600 R or the RR and only bringing in CBR500R, and I notice that there's not much of the said model on the road and I'm very keen in knowing why before I really made my choice.

If I do bought the bike, I might end up using it as a daily commute from my house to work which back and forth around 95KM a day.

Main reason the bike got my attention will be that its not too OP for me, and some review on the net mention that it's very suitable to be use as a beginner bike. The sitting position is somewhat upright like a Naked Bike, and of course the way it looks.

So I humbly ask for the opinion of para para sifu here for your opinion on this matter and please do advice if you find that there's a wiser decision to be made / things that I should pay attention on / other model that might suit me better or even your review on CBR500R if you have ride on 1 before or currently owning 1.

All advice is welcome and appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
