Riding in Malaysia

[Simon.Pieman]

Has anyone on here of the adventure biker ilk ridden a bike accross Malaysia?
I would be grateful of any info on good routes running North from KL on the West coast (it's a bit monsoony on the other coast at moment) and info on nice out of the way places to stay etc.
 Also any reccomendation on s/h bike dealers in KL would be handy. Will be looking for a KLX150 or similar.
Many Thanks

Thanks mate, some useful info there on getting the dealer to do the paperwork and insurance, which saves a lot of hassle. Will be trying for a buy back deal ideally as will be hopping over to Indo afterwards and riding there too. Learnt this morning that taking a Malaysian bike into Indo is not worth doing, which is a pity.

Get on YouTube "c90 adventures".

Funny bloke, ships a bike to Malaysia in bits, builds it and rides it home.

Probably won't have any of the information you need, but it will be inspiring.

...or you can buy yourself the dvd for Xmas.

Cheers, yep I've heard of him, but no more mopeds for me! I've done Hanoi to Saigon on a Honda Wave moped  and although i had a great time it didn't do much for my spine or the muscles in my butt.
 Thanks for the recommendation though.
