Was watching news late yesterday evening and there was a BAD accident involving 1 Superbike in Perak........this person crashed into a ditch on the side.......was pronounced dead. Apparently this biker was part of a convoy.......For those Motorrads, please becareful out there............
 
it seems that this guy is the Prez for Meru Superbikers.

Alfatihah ..
 
RIP.. to the biker.

Traveling in a convoy can be risky whether in a car or on a bike.. Should not accelerate and especially decelerate (brake) suddenly..
Generous use of the indicator signal is recommended.. And also tap the brake earlier before actually start braking... especially if you anticipated that there would be car/truck going to cut into ur lane to overtake a slower vehicle...
 
i saw a convoy, and 2 big BMW bikes on my way back from penang yday.. they were really fast in the heavy rain, so was i ..
 
Did this happen last weekend? Cos while my dad and I was driving to Ipoh on Saturday, there were about a convoy of 20 superbikes whizzing by occasionally. They rode in batches, often seen 3-4 together weaving past, and at their speed, can't really blame them since we had to leave a gap for them to breeze past.

Also got overtaken by a 911 Turbo. Haha. That car was probably driving at 200 tops. :D

Anyways, really sad to hear about the accident. God bless.

Ahh, thanks for the lowdown. Thought Slim River was the start of the three lanes? Hmm, then again, new roads plus lil bumps and crests and bends tend to bring out the worse conditions whenever it rains.

Stagnant water and strong currents. Haha, awesome man your328i. Didn't even flinch during heavy downpour. Salute!

Last time drove the Jag along the NPE in torrential downpour, the car aquaplaned few times. Can feel floating sensation. Probably the wheels too wide d. Haha.
 
salute?

there were only 2 other cars that zoom passed me in the heavy rain...

A Cayenne & a MB R-Class, amazing!! prolly doing 170kmh above.. now i salute those drivers!!
 
Al-fatihah buat allahyarham Mohd Helmy Jaafar serta takziah buat keluarga beliau. Allahyarham petugas di RTM Angkasapuri, dari Meru berumur 39 meninggalkan seorang isteri dan 5 anak perempuan yang masih bersekolah. Motorsikal terbabit adalah Yamaha Fazer. Sudah takdir tapi diharapkan semua yang selalu ke Simpang Pulai - Cameron tu berhati hatilah ye.. Saya selalu menasihati kekawan dan diri sendiri ,the first stage tu jangan layan sangat pasal banyak pasir berhampiran kilang batu tu dan korner nye pun pendek dan tajam. Menurut pemerhatian polis , kawasan tempat kejadian tersebut berpasir.
 
al-fatihah... condolence to the family.

Simpang Pulai - Cameron Highland road offers very tempting turns n bends.. but even if you are an expert or very familiar with that road.. please dun take safety for granted....
