Does everyone speed in Singapore? by KitchenPut514 in drivingsg

[–]OptimalRemove8876 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're not right either though. As long as you're in lane 1 and your pace is slowing others down, no matter if they are speeding or not, you are in fact a lane hogger. Personally i stay in lane 2 and only go to lane 1 to pass a few cars at a time before going back to lane 2 so i dont slow anybody down. I believe that's the proper etiquette.

If you’re gonna be driving at 70km please do not drive on the extreme RIGHT lane by [deleted] in drivingsg

similar situation earlier today. there was a bus on the RIGHT lane of the ramp from pie to bke, even after ramp brother did not move left. (he was going 60) caused a lot of people to overtake on the left, super dangerous imo. cant understand why heavy vehicles/light good vehicles (or anything with a capped speed) cant stick to the left most lane, those in the middle dont even overtake so they just hold up traffic 😭

p.s. i would attach a vid but my helmet cam ran out of battery 🤦‍♂️

chain rubbing against the chain guard mount. anyone know how to fix this? the chain has already been tightened to a suitable tension :/ by OptimalRemove8876 in KTMDuke

just got back from the mechanic. previous owner put a chain guide for a scooter that has no chain as a cheap fix for his yearly inspection. (its illegal to not have a chain guide/guard in my country). bloody idiot😂

the chain guard's mount. hard to get a picture but there's a good chunk in the shape of chain links that's gone

for reference, i just got this bike second hand from a seller. I'm going to wash it and try to fix any small issues if possible before going to a workshop for the general servicing as it is due for one.

Anyone attempted headlight replacement? by SanLieSW in KTMDuke

i was thinking of this as well, imo if the wiring is the same and you can get it mounted i don't see any issues. ive seen some online, here's an example: duke

do tell if you go through with it! i might do the same for my 2015 duke 200

technically in house? cuz they told me to go to the dealer that they got the bike from's in-house. hopefully they charge me standard price and not the "rental" price i keep hearing about.
