Malaysia: Terrenganu > Kuantan

Feb 25-27 2023 |


Another blase ride. The weather was turning horrible, with torrential rain combined with incessant wind. My main prerogative was to get to the local BMW Motorrad dealer for service of my coolant leak. One ‘highlight” of the ride was the ginormous Petronas refinery that seemed to go on forever, including its employee town and golf course.


I looked around Kuantan a bit, but with rain and my bike at the shop all day, tourism options were fairly limited. What I did see was good, it seems like a nice place. Per BMW, I learned that my coolant leak was due to a broken water pump seal - $300 to fix, and the part was going to take 5 days to arrive. I decided to soldier on to Singapore for the fix at my usual shop or BMW Motorrad. It sucked to have bike issues so close to the end of my trip.


Ride: 215km | 3.5 hrs

Stay: Teruntum 96 Guesthouse | 3/5
