I do many research before going to Thai and like to Thanks all member from http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums sharing their experience!
 
Will move out from JB @ 12am... (Ride actually delay start 1:30am and reach 1:30pm)
From Johor ride NSE E1 6hour to KL continue to E2 Ipoh ride to Gerik ride to the end of Gerik continue to Pengkalan hulu perak and when reaching the end of Pengkalan hulu will see Petronas refill fuel and turn right to Betong 7km to reach Malaysia/Thai custom total another 6hour.

Checking the Malaysia weather forecast from JB toward KL had no rain but reaching Perak have isolated rain over coastal area. Hopefully everything will be alright :(


8 pit stop I can do 6 but let my bike rest more and road after Ipoh is a challenge for my small bike up and down hill with lot of shape corner my skill is put to test for first time have to use engine brake all the way down hill.

Mod for touring, exhaust wrap, chain Tensioner, throttle control, sprocket...

 



Go Cruise Throttle control relax your hand when touring.
Exhaust wrap: Hot air moves faster than cold air so it will allow the exhaust gas to escape faster.
BMW handlebar grip for touring great feel after install compare to stock and it only cost $28 made in Germany.
Auto Chain Tensioner: After install the chain tensioner I only adjust my chain every 6 months.
