Tires
Hi
I'm having a bit of trouble getting a rear tire in Malaysia, i'm after a Bridgestone trail wing TW42 Rear, i've been to a couple of place's ( sunneys in KL and Ben Zen, Melaka) both can get tires but it means waiting around for quite a while, is it worth going down to Singapore or up into Thiland? or dose anyone know another dealer who may be able to help. Also dose anyone know if there is a main Suzuki agent in malaysia, i've tryed the Suizuki site on the net, but no luck. Cheers Skip

There are far more big bikes in My than any other country in the region. Tyre choice here in T is probably more limited, so get your rubber down there. Wait, if necessary.

If you didn't pick them up in Singapore, you will definately get them at 'Paddock' in Bangkok where I got an Metzler Enduro 3. Or maybe try the BMW bike place I mentioned in Georgetown.
Is Mark still about at the Kancil GH? He's a dude!

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
