Kwasaki Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Give my my bike TLC with Johnson polish. Lots of rain so abort to today's ride. Still waiting for my end piece noicey muffler for my existing box. I like the look of the later Akapok exhaust boxes on sale and they come with a silencer attachment piece. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys that ride motorcycles without baffles in exhaust or even without exhaust are ahead of at least 50% of that noise! Those behind them and off to the sides get the full dba! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the after market box has baffle but it is still a straight through design. The engine tick over is quieter but revs are still loud but a little better. I'm going to buy a later style Akapok' box that has a ditachacable silencer piece and see if that will tone my Mia noi down a bit. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite impressed with the quality of this exhaust I guess time will tell on how long it will stay looking good. At end of the day cheap enough to buy another anyhow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunLA Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 (edited) Going solar at the house, so electric scooter is the practical choice, for my daily rides around town. Keeping the fossil burner for road trips, as scooter will only have about 100 km range, and more than I want to be on a scooter at one time anyway. If I'm going further than that, I'm taking half the house with me anyway. Scooter will cover my daily walks at the park & surf side with the dog a couple times a day. Doubtful, but maybe I'll be able to sneak up on them birds with my camera ???? Edited October 1, 2021 by KhunLA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every once in awhile it pays to switch insurance companies…amazing how much cheaper a new company will be to snipe a customer from a competitor. In Canada I switched vehicle insurance about every three years….we’d all like to think we would get rested better if we stayed with same company forever but doesn’t seem to work that way.

seedy Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I switched because it had a higher payout if totaled. Was actually more expensive by about 1800 THB but much better coverage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwasaki Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 The Blade was tested today 840 baht for test, road disc & CTPL. The sensor probe they stick down the exhaust was reading good seems I've tuned the Carbs and got them as best you can. The exhaust noise was on the high side, so I said high but OK, he said yes so I guess it's all good. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwasaki Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Not my bike but my blade scoot yesterday plodding along at usual 30 kph one of those large monitor lizards if that's what there call came suddenly from the left and crashed into the back of my front wheel immediately causing left opposite steer putting the bike down on its off side, me with it, sliding off road down side of the road into grass.
