CHAPTER 5
5.1 Introduction
5.2 Discussion
During the process of finishing the project, we have faced several of problems.
Fortunately, we have solved all those problems that come through us. These are those
problems and solutions we did.
1. We need a bending machine to bend a plate metal and put it as mudguards in the
design. The problem were facing here is that Mechanical Engineering
Department of Politeknik Kota Kinabalu dont have any bending machine. We
solve this problem by buying two Yamaha LCs mudguards and put it in the
design.
2. Oxy-acetylene gas is needed in order for us to bend the pipe of the exhaust. As
problem stated in number (1), Mechanical Engineering Department of
Politeknik Kota Kinabalu also didnt own an oxy-acetylene gas for the use. We
overcome this problem by buying a standard exhaust of Kriss MR1 motorcycle
that is perfectly fit into our design.
Other than having problems during the fabrication of project, we also have the
design being tested by Mr. Nasib (General Workers of Rehab Centre, Polytechnic
Commercial Centre Kota Kinabalu). Mr. Nasib has tested the design in a straight way
for about 600 meters and road bends. According to what Mr. Nasib has experienced
during the test, we have concluded that:
4. Those wheels are a little bit high from the ground and he dont feel much
comfortable with that.

5.3 Recommendation
5
Through this JJ 614 subject, we suggest that this subject should be held at each
institution in Malaysia so that students can learn some practical works.
Through observation we made in the process of completing this project, we have made
some suggestions as improvements and process to repair or prototype update the
existing design. The aim is to design the future better and more effective for
consumers. Among the reform proposals made are:
Other than that, Mr. Nasib also has voiced his opinion as a suggestion to improve the
design of the Tri-Wheel. This included:
i. To put a stronger mudguard (for each side) so the rider can lean their weight
onto it to get themselves on the motorcycle.
ii. To put an object as a barrier so that rider's feet are not too exposed to the
Tri-Wheel for safety purpose.
