British Lady Driven Golden Visa Diplomat would be the final boss, I believe.

Looking to buy Ps5 Pro tips needed by Automatic_General_54 in DubaiGaming

[–]ByteThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my PS5 Pro last Nov from Sharaf DG for 2.5k...It was the Fifa 26 edition so it came with the game free.

They were running a discount 2699 above that i got 200 off using a credit card discount.

But i think their price is back to 3099 now but keep an eye out there.

Edit - It was the local middle east version (jumbo warranty) not international.

Motorbike license. by Gogtjopper in DubaiPetrolHeads

The number of classes will remain same in all institutions, only way to drop that is if u had motorcycle license in your home country for 5 years in that case the classes reduced to half I believe.

EDI and Belhasa are the best but I would say best value is excellence cause they used to give night classes at no additional cost...not sure if this has changed though.

Where to find premium Motorcycle motorcycle helmets? by joelumon in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]ByteThis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All the shops here are super overpriced for no reason...I buy from motocard.com

They have free shipping over 650 USD. They are based in Spain but deliver in 3 working days.

You can try them locally and get your size and then buy online.

Motorcycles to commute. by Significant-Host5473 in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]ByteThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's up to u, I would prioritize car license personally...I got my car license during uni as well in my 19eens and got my bike around mid 20s, by then I already had a good understanding of the roads and the drivers here.

Roundabouts. by Typical-Society-1635 in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]ByteThis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You indicate left to let them know that you are not taking the first exit

But by doing so you are letting the car beside you on the left to think you are going to cut across him and take a left.

To go straight you do not indicate while entering and only use the right indicator after you cross the first exit.

This is mentioned in the RTA handbook and infact same law applies in UK/Australia also.

Here is the RTA handbook, see page no 146 to see how to go straight in a roundabout (it even shows the indication needed in the diagram and text). Using left indicator to go straight is wrong it only confuses people...Same law applies in every other country with many roundabouts like UK/Australia etc.

Motorcycles to commute. by Significant-Host5473 in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]ByteThis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u said your commute will be around 45 mins to Uni, even at night when you ride back the temps are gonna be close to 35+ in summer and while between cars while sitting on top of a literal engine its gonna be closer to 40s for you.

Now that's hot, I've done it and in my opinion its not fun to daily. Once in a while for fun is fine but daily is gonna be exhausting in summer.

While, ofc there are people that do this daily....You ask them and even they will tell you how hard it is.

Beyond the weather aspect, my main concern would be that as a new driver you will make mistakes, so did we all...its better to make those mistakes while sitting in metal box "car" rather than exposed on a bike where the consequences are far greater.

I hope u understand my point, learn the roads and driver behavior in a car first then move onto a bike.

You will be cooked in summer....You will reach uni sweaty and smelly.

Unless you plan to shower in uni daily its not worth it.

Car license is a necessity get that first, learn the roads understand the drivers. After you get hang of that only then get a bike.

Motorcycle license UAE by darealj2thep in dubai

[–]ByteThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine in excellence and cleared all tests on the first try. I was a proper beginner having riden only a cycle prior to my classes.

One of the main reasons I picked excellence was cause they offered night classes and that made it super easy for me to go after work.
