April already? Doesn’t

time fly!!! So onward

and upward…..

To kick off, a big

‘Thanks’ to Dave Rees for

providing the talk at the

March Club Night which

was about road safety on

Wirral. There were cer-

tainly a few facts and fig-

ures to conjure with as a

full room listened on. A

very informative evening.

Also on the night was a

presentation made to

Graham Thow for being

Observer of the Year

2013, a presentation put

back from February’s

AGM. Giving the certifi-

cate is our new WAM

Chairman, Tim.

So to this month, and

Aprils Club Night is a

discussion/talk/argument

about offsiding, All I’ll

say is that there is an arti-

cle inside, so read up, and

discuss on the night! Should be good!! Also in this issue is an article from long

standing member, Tim Dishman, who spends a lot of time in Bali (that’s BALI not

BALA) the first instalment is within this tome.

And finally(?!?) for the official club run this month, is a return trip to RAF

Cosford - the date is April 27th The ride will be lead by yours truly, and I will

need to know approximate numbers intending to go - I’ll be posting up a reminder

on both WAM forums. Again keep your eye on the WAM website.

Talking of which, it’s been revamped recently, so to see the revised look, go to

Happy Biking! Pete

Choosing a Cam for your engine

(Suitable for Observing and WAM ride outs)

The question "What cam

should I buy for my bike?"

is the one we often hear.

Indeed it is, especially on

the WAM forums and at

club nights.

While there are no hard

and fast rules for picking a

cam for a specific applica-

tion, such as ‘pootle

mode’, or ‘making pro-

gress mode’ some basic

guidelines are worth con-

sidering first, before get-

ting your spanners out and stripping your engine to the last nut and bolt. Keep in

mind that camshafts are usually chosen for the basic purpose of producing more

power from your engine. The three questions to answer before choosing a new cam

are:

1. Primary application: Is the bike going to be used for normal street riding or is

the goal to have an engine which is running at the maximum torque and horse

power for WAM Observing and/or WAM ride outs?

2. Type of riding: Do you spend a lot of your time riding on highway trips or is it

more important to have the most power you can get which is suitable for WAM

Observing and/or WAM ride outs? In other words is your riding style conservative

or worthy of ‘making progress’?

3. Engine/Bike combination: This question relates to displacement (engine cc),

compression ratio, bike weight and what kind of cylinder head modifications have

been done and whether a sidecar has been fitted or not. Have the intake and ex-

haust ports been changed to result in better flow efficiency? (for IAM insurance

purposes = NO) Does the engine have higher than stock compression ratio to take

advantage of a longer duration cam? (for IAM insurance purposes = NO) Is the

bike lighter due to radical body modifications, and use of titanium alloys for brack-

ets and fasteners? (for IAM insurance purposes = NO)

To get the best cam for your bike all these factors have to be taken into account.

Almost every type of engine modification imaginable has been performed on bike

Page 5: April2014

engines over the years by experts and by the bloke in the shed at the bottom of the

garden. Some are quick and simple to perform, whilst others can be very com-

plex. But for IAM insurance purposes, no modifications are done at all. Ever.

Not even the tyre valve caps. Here is a short summary of modifications listed in

the order of increasing cost and installation complexity.

Free flow air filters

Free flow exhaust system

Performance camshafts

Remapping of the bikes ECU and Higher output ignitions

Modified fuel injectors or larger carburettors

High compression pistons

Big bore cylinders and pistons

It is important to note that too much cam sometimes results in poor low RPM

power. Indeed this is not good for ‘making progress’ on Observed rides or WAM

ride outs. It would be frowned upon by those WAM Observers ‘in the know’.

Street bikes will often perform better with a mild cam than more radical cams.

While bigger cams may have a higher peak horsepower, more conservative cams

may feel stronger to a street rider because the max torque occurs at lower RPM.

This is vitally important for ‘making progress’ on Observed rides and WAM ride

outs, especially on overtakes, or filtering on the M53 in rush hour, or doing some

serous bend swinging through the Birkenhead Tunnel when no one is looking.

Changing cams is the easy way to more torque in the low to mid RPM range. A

cam with a longer intake duration will reduce static compression pressure at low

speed which in turn will tend to reduce low RPM torque. Not good, especially on

those overtakes. But with a longer duration cam and a higher compression ratio,

power at middle and high speeds will be increased which is what you wanted all

along. This is the main benefit of a good performance camshaft and properly

tuned engine. This sounds like what is required for ‘making progress’ on Ob-

served rides and WAM ride outs or filtering on the M53 in rush hour, or doing

some serous bend swinging through the Birkenhead Tunnel when no one is look-

ing.

For an engine with a cam properly matched to the displacement and compression

ratio, the net result will be more power at middle and higher engine speeds. As

has been mentioned several times before, this sounds like what is required for

‘making progress’ on Observed rides and WAM ride outs etc, etc.

So the conclusion from all of this is not to touch your engine at all for IAM insur-

ance purposes. And removing the sidecar may help.

Offsiding – using the other side of the road An (abbreviated) article from the Kent Advanced Motorcycle Group

This should put the cat amongst the pigeons!

The subject of offsiding is one of the most controversial on-road motorcycling

techniques. It is a subject, which, from time to time, is brought up by associates

and full members alike. Normally it is an associate that has heard of the technique

and they start to enquire whether we encourage or support it, also can we explain

exactly what it is!!

People tend to fall into three camps. Camp one is the ‘never never” camp, who

absolutely, positively, 100% say it should never be done under any circumstances.

Camp two say that although they recognise offsiding as a technique, they person-

ally would never normally practice it. This leaves the third bunch of maniacs who

actually do it! (Or are they?)

Before I go any further, may I point out that this technique is NOT approved by

the I.A.M. and as such, Observers will not teach it to associates, it is worth noting

that certain examiners will fail you for demonstrating it and others may not. If

you see other riders doing it, do not just try to copy them, it is a technique that

needs a full understanding, precise execution and can be very dangerous if you

haven’t grasped it 100%.

One of the examiners is reported to have a favourite saying on the subject;

“Never go out looking for a view that you haven’t already got!” That makes a

whole lot of sense to me and I don’t think you can fault that phrase. The phrase

has been reinforced by comments like, “How do you explain to a magistrate that

the incident occurred, whilst I was riding on the wrong side of the road, looking

for a view!”

So what is Offsiding? As the name suggests, it is a practice of using the offside

or opposing carriageway, normally over the white lines or arbitrary centre line. Its

general purpose is to extend or maintain an advanced view ahead or to smooth out

bends. Of course it should never be practiced where it would be illegal, i.e. cross-

ing solid white lines or in areas marked by no overtaking signs and more im-

portantly where anyone including yourself, could be put into a dangerous or com-

promising situation. (At this point, if you are an associate, please turn to the next

article.)

However, it is generally accepted that one would use the other side of the road

during a standard overtake on a single carriageway road. Not a single advanced

motorcyclist would question the validity of crossing the centre line here. Provided

Page 13: April2014

13

that the overtake is legal, does not cause any other road user to alter their course

and you actually have somewhere to return your bike to safely once you pass the

vehicle, (If you can’t put it in, don’t get it out rule.) this type of manoeuvre is

acceptable.

Now, would you ever consider an overtake just as a right hand bend opens up? As

an advanced rider, you might be looking for such an opportunity to overtake the

vehicle in front. As long as you have sufficient vision through the overtaking

path, its surrounding area and it is safe, to do so, and why not?

Lets run through the overtake on the diagram. You are travelling along some nice

twisties in a national limit on a warm dry summers day. (Just setting the scene.)

You are gaining quite quickly on a solitary car in front. As an advanced rider, I

know that as soon as you caught sight of the car, you would have had started to

plan for an overtake.

You anticipate the overtake could be on and you prepare yourself by taking up an

appropriate position, speed and gear. When you reach point [A] you would have

already scanned the nearside of the road around the right hand bend and can now

see fully along the road on the offside.

There are no turnings or entrances and your information stage has confirmed that

the overtake is now definitely on! Gently, on comes the gas, smooth acceleration,

the bike is really responsive and the overtake is completed by point [B] Mmmm.

Nice overtake. oops, I’m daydreaming again.

However, from point [B] on a straight piece of road, you would normally then

come back into the left lane. But now you discover that from this position you

have gained an advanced view around the next left hand bend. Question: Do you

now return to the left lane at this point knowing that you can come back to your

side of the road in a heartbeat, or do you maintain this advanced view around the

corner until you reach point [C].

Lets study that famous quote; “Never go out looking for a view that you haven’t

already got!” But we have now got the view haven’t we?. Should we just give it

up? It’s very debatable, isn’t it... Or is it? You decide.

For those readers of the first group, I am surprised that you read this far and I am

now wishing that I used a pen name when submitting this piece! If you are

an associate, what part of the phrase, “please turn to the next article” did you not

understand then?

The readers of the third group already know the next bit so you can buzz off too.

Page 14: April2014

14

But for the readers of the second group, how about removing the immediate haz-

ard on the diagram. Place your thumb over the car... Now how does that look to

you?

Deathwish. Huh?

Just remember.

“When in doubt, DON’T”.

Looks like a national limit,

with hazard centre lines, and

hedges either side limiting

view across corners

Dear Pete & friends @ WAM,

Greetings from Bali.

You may be interested in the article which I prepared for the Club Mag. I have

had to sell the BMW K75S recently, which I had since 1994. I still have the XL

185 trail I bought in PNG in 1990 though! Sorry I have not been able to make

recent rides.

Best wishes to all

Cheers

The Road to Bali-2014

I guess that things have changed quite a lot in

Bali since the famous 1952 American comedy

film-The Road to Bali. {See poster}. As it hap-

pens; I was born in 1952. In fact there is no

Road to Bali, as it is a small island in the Indone-

sian archipelago, about 8 degrees South of the

Equator & 115 degrees East of the Prime Meridi-

an. The island is very roughly 90 miles long in

the East - West direction and 55 miles long in the

North - South direction. See Google Earth Im-

age 1 below.

My “Road to Bali” did not take place by boat

from Darwin-Australia, as in the Film, but by

aeroplane from Manchester, England.

We left Manchester on

Etihad Airways flight #

EY0022, on Tuesday

evening at 20.10GMT,

February 4 2014, to fly

the 3522 miles to Abu

Dhabi. We arrived

there early morning on

Wednesday. We had a

short time to wait be-

fore boarding flight #

EY0416 to fly the 3473

miles to Kuala Lumpur - arriving late on Wednesday evening. We were hurried

thru’ the impressive new terminal buildings-making use of a driverless train-to

board the Malaysia Airlines operated flight to Denpasar, Bali-leaving at 23.35.

Page 16: April2014

16

The flight of 1234 miles took

around 3 hours on a Boeing 737-

800 jet plane. We entered Indone-

sia without problem, obtaining a

visa on arrival. Bali also is con-

structing an impressive new air-

port terminal building.

We passed out of the arrivals

building into the balmy, tropical

air, around 03:00 local time,

{GMT + 8 hours}, on Thursday

morning, underneath a veritable

spaghetti of steelwork holding up

the vast roof. {See photograph 1}.

My Wife & I had a short time to

wait before we were picked up by

her Sister and Brother in Law in their trusty, diesel, Izuzu Panther vehicle.

I had noticed, as we came in to land-from an easterly direction-an impressive new

toll road link bridge-lit up with a ribbon of lites reflecting on the waters between

the main island of Bali and the smaller area of Nusa Dua to the South. See

Google Earth Image 2 be-

low. The road forms one

of the many impressive

schemes to relieve the no-

torious traffic congestion

on this tiny island, with its

many roads unsuitable for

today’s traffic conditions.

{See photographs left &

below}. An underpass, a

first for Bali, has been

constructed to take

traffic from Jalan Sun-

set Road down to the

airport and Nusa Dua;

underneath the by pass

traffic heading for

Kuta. Out of town

bridges are under con-

struction on the busy road

from Denpasar West-

wards to the island of

Java. {See photograph

right }

After so many hours

cooped up in the cabin of

an aircraft I felt the call of

the open road. As it was

still fairly quiet at this

early time of morning,

well before sunrise, I took

to the wheel to try out this

new toll road over the

water, where the cooling sea breezes were most welcome. We paid 10,000 Rupi-

ah one way and another 10,000 Rupiah for the return trip, taking a different route

past the harbour area. There are 19,859 Rupiah to the British Pound Sterling at

the time of writing - {Feb 18 2014}. Most folk use the local, standard grade pet-

rol which costs a very low 6,500 Rupiah per liter. Diesel is even cheaper at 5,500

Rupiah per liter. Higher octane Pertamax petrol is available at 13,000 Rupiah per

liter. I did not, however, observe many people filling up with this costlier, but

still cheap by World standards, fuel.

After a rest at the Family home North of Kuta, in a small village called Pegend-

ing, it was time to wheel out the Honda Tiger 200cc motorcycle, which I keep

here. I had the battery filled with acid and charged up. Without too much diffi-

culty the bike fired up after its long lay up since my trip to the island of Flores on

it in 2012. The engine was not running smoothly though and it had no pulling

power. I managed to limp to the local Honda shop on it, where I left it, without

any pre booking needed, for a thorough check out. I waited about 4 hours at the

shop whilst they did the work, which including dismantling and cleaning out the

carburettor totally, paying 175,000 Rupiah-less than GBP10. This also included

the cost of a new spark plug for the single cylinder engine.

My first long trip on the bike was on Sunday, February 16 2014 when I rode from

Denpasar Northwards over the mountains to the coast at Singaraja. I filled up

with Pertamax fuel to see if I could notice any improvement in performance. I

must admit that I could not really feel any difference, although it may be cleaner

for the carburettor. This road has improved a lot over the years I have been riding

it. The surface has been upgraded and the carriageway widened. Whilst the step

thru’ and scooter remains the most popular vehicle on the road here there are also

a few bigger bikes seen, such as Harley Davidsons and Ducatis. By far the best

Page 18: April2014

18

time to ride is the early morning when it is becoming lite-around 06:00. The

roads are less busy and it is cooler and more comfortable riding. Also the sil-

houttes of the volcanic mountains look impressive against an orange backdrop -

as dawn breaks. During the day

time clouds often build up and

the peaks are hidden in a haze.

There are many sights and

sounds and smells to take in

when riding in Bali. The rice

terraces present a most beautiful

sight as well as being very clev-

erly engineered features. {See

photographs right and below} If

one feels hungry or thirsty there

are numerous stalls set up by the

side of the road selling all man-

ner of items from exotic fruits,

{see photograph left}, to drinks-

both bottled and fresh - such as

coconut milk.

The mountain roads, on a decent

are, however, a large number of

accidents and many signs are

appearing urging people to take

Edge protection and safe-

ty barriers are not provid-

ed and the open storm

It took me around 3 hours to ride from

Pegending up to Singaraja, on the North

coast. In Singaraja I looked around a Chi-

nese temple to Taoism, Buddhism and

Confucius. There were many varied and

interesting things to see ranging from a

large bell-made in England-to turtle like

animals crawling around an area sunken

into the floor. {See photographs below }
