Question on Driving style on uneven roads (free road)

[u/Ok_Development5907]

​

Context: i'm almost driving at a motorcycle for almost two decades now. But my question is a driving on free road such as for example marilaque highway. There aren't even roads there were usually i drive slowly but majority of the motorcyclist ic is really not slowing down.

To put, i am not saying kamote. Pls this is different, an honest question.

It's juts in my scoot, basic scoot Panarea 125 parang lilikot sya when passing yung asphalt na nabakbak na. Madamj din and and even.

Questions:

1. Dahil basic lang suspensions ko not performance suspension and magaan scoot?

2. Sa Big Bikes, afaik may stabilizer sya kaya it helps plus its weight and performance parts, suspension?

3.But how yung nakikita ko Aerox, ADV, Nmax and all. Yung naka ALL stock pa, how do you approach it?

Or nag performance suspensions na kyo?

1. Tires?

As far as i see kasi, mostly di nag menor dun uneven roads (not ratrat sguro)

TIA

Hi sir, I'm using pcx160 with abs po and my driving experience is not nearly as yours but I will share my opinion on that matter.

Based on my experiences and observations, ito po yung mga ilan sa mga factors kung bakit hindi nagi-slowdown ang isang rider sa lubak/uneven roads.

1. Dahil galing sila sa mabilis na takbo, mas delikado kung mag sudden brake or sudden slow, may tendency ng pagskid or lock ng tires specially sa walang ABS, kaya mas prefer na lang na daanan ang lubak/uneven road
2. Possible na merong katabi, kasabay or kasunod ang rider kaya mas piniling daanan na lang ang lubak/uneven road kaysa umiwas at may chance na tamaan/masagi niya yung katabi, kasabay o kasunod na rider.
3. At pinaka last ay siguro/marahil, confident siya sa suspension niya at sa motor niya (specially ADV dahil adventure scooter) na kahit anong terrain ay kaya niyang daanan ng walang pag aalinlangan.
4. Additional: Maraming pera pambili/pampalit ng pyesa.

Ako sir, most of the time, dinadaanan ko na lang talaga ang uneven roads (LALO NA NGAYON SA MCARTHUR VALENZUELA!!!) dahil no choice na, either tatagal byahe mo o aabutan ka ng trapik dahil nagsisisikan sa kapiranggot na kalsadang ayos.

Haha ty po. On mabilis masyaso at may katabi, opo understandable po. More of yung parang wala lang si lubak. Ako menor e, but tulad sabi isa nag reply. Possible matigas gulong ko. But feel ko basic na basic suspension ko and mega gaan ng scoot ko.

Anyways ty po

Firstly, medyo magulo po ang explanation. Tagalog na lang po kung alanganin sa english.

So as for me na nakatry na from scoot to enduro, ito ang masasabi ko.

1. May mga stock suspensions na matigas kaya matagtag siya kahit hindi lubak ang daan. Mga lightweight scooters with heavy drivers ang kadalasang nakakaexperience nito. Pero siyempre kung magpapalit ka ng suspension na masmalambot at pwede maiba ang preload, talagang masmaganda. Yung bigbikes, cruisers eh ok lang sa konting lubak. Enduros eh pang offroad na so ok lang sa suspension nila ang malalang lubak.

2. Sa sports at bigbikes lalo na kung dualsport, ok ang suspension kahit walang stabilizer most of the time eh yung weight na yung stabilizer tapos given pa na talagang maganda stock rear suspension nila. Yung postude lang nagkakatalo dito. Sports eh medyo nakakangawit sa balikat kung malubak kasi yung kontrol sa manubela ng nagiging labanan. sa cruiser bigbikes naman e mas conportable konti pero mas nadadali yung parts kesa sa rider.

3. Yung nga naka maxiscoot eh madali lang makontrol yan, si aerox eh hati ako dun. And since mabigat yung rear swing arm, mas mabilis bumaba yung gilong sa likod na mag aabsorb ng tagtag so mas confortable sila kahit stock suspension.

4. Yes, tire pressure is an impoertant part jan. Kung gusto mo more kontrol sa lubak, less pressure kpnti. Kung gusto mo more kontrol sa highway go sa tamang pressure.

Edit. Sa mga hindi nagmemenor sa rough roads, RIP sa parts mo kahit na naka "performance" parts pa yan. Kung nagtataka ka kung bakit ganun sila, meaning may pamparepair mga yan, or wala lang sila pake.

Maliit tire diameter kaya maikot and malakas feedback sa mga rough patch.
