:agree:
Strangely I really like the GTR in white :yes: nice pictures, it looks hot :scooter:
Ha....ha...ha... Thank you all, for the kind compliments...
My mate owns the white GTR, use to be Blue till he had a slow speed spill a couple of years ago on the way to Phuket. Scuff the side fairing quite a fair bit... Was very upset about it and had the Workshop painted it White during it's course of repair.
Both of us are also Volunteers (Under a Group) as Out Riders for Local Sporting Events.

Hi to all,
Just a simple update to this Post....
I'm in the middle of editing the tons of photos & video clips taken during this trip. This is the 1st of 3 videos that I'll be making.
DREAMTRIP87 ~ GEAR
The above is a short clip which I share the gear that I brought along for my trip... it was suppose to be a 14,000km trip but sadly something happened on the way out from Laos, which I'll share with you guys on a later date (via short video).
I'm from Singapore again and I might sound funny to you guys.. ha..ha.ha...
So... I'm very new to video editing and long distance riding... all comments are welcome.
Cheers!
Stoner
*I have also updated the 1st page with this Clip.. :clap:

Oops... Cant open last vid.... ;-/
Nice photo's Stoner looks like you had fun...
I must say I like the understated color schemes you have on your bikes there. Makes me want to do something like that to mine.
Thanks mate!
My bike is basically black and the white are 3M reflective stickers i've installed.. time to replace the stickers.. :clap:
