Updates on gas mileage so far + Night ride!

21/11

Rode to work and got cut off my lane by a driver coming out from a carpark joining the main road. Blasted my horn and I got a "sorry" hand sign from the driver. 

I know he didn't see me but should have been more careful. A good hand gesture may be too late if an accident occured. 

Well, I guess near misses are very common and we just got to watch out for them.

Do be careful if you guys ride along PIE after Whitley road where the curvy stretch is. Drivers tend to swerve into your lane as they mitigate the turns at high speeds. Happens every time I'm riding along that stretch. 

Cutting me is fine, just don't cut into half of my lane please. 

Gas mileage.

I've been riding for the past week and got up to at least 230km. They include rides to and fro work and to other places once in a while. 

Just topped my tank up to the brim with 5.75 litres (Using fuelsave 95 from Shell).

I would say I'm averaging it to around 35-40km/l. Maybe partly because I'm riding quite conservatively. Averaging speed around 70-80km/h on the expressways, ~60km/h out of expressways. 

Suzuki DR200 doing pretty well so far. Living up to its expectations. 

Sometimes even slower hahaha! Road hogging probably. 

Night riding! 

Went off to meet Joel after work for a ride. Rode to Singapore Flyer hoping to be able to get into the area beside the river, unfortunately the entrance was blocked off.

Proceeded to marina barrage instead to explore the roads. 

Happened to chance upon a police van doing their rounds at a construction area. 

They are not there for me hahah!

Managed to snap a few photos including Joel's Yamaha R15. A little dark still hahah.

To end the night off, rode all the way back to the west; Journey to the west.

Joel brought us to South Buona Vista road where the curvy stretch is, leading to Pasir Panjang. Go take a look and try out when you guys a

Interesting but scary if you go too fast haha. Went slow as I was afraid of skidding over there.

Stopped at McDonald's at West Coast Park to grab a vanilla cone before going back to rest. Long day..

Will upload videos in future if I do get a set of camera.

Great night to ride, cloudy and cooling. No rain most importantly!

Have fun!
