638T...Ask folks in Bt Panjang they got a big list of than :D

Simple_boi SG

SBS7414U for me nia...

Interesting you recommend voith B9. Why you like to contradict yourself? Failure.

SBS2695H SG

Interesting you recommend voith B9. Why you like to contradict yourself? Failure.

In my opinion, ZF B9TLs accelarate slower than Voith B9TLs as ZF B9TLs have 6 gears, resulting in gear change being too fast (same for KUBs) which may slow it down.

TIB1049L SG

SBS3625A is the best ride on a Scania N113CRB you could wish for. (Sv 186)

TIB1024H has lost it's 1st gear and it starts accelerating from 2nd Gear and straight into 3rd. (Sv 913)

TIB369U has a slighty tuned engine that gives more rpm. A good ride (Sv 981/SP)

SBS8031M: Little Vibration, Smooth Ride (Sv 6)

SBS3604P: A bus that has little vibration. Cannot ride on it anymore (Training Bus)

TIB792E: Interior is still rotten but bus performance is an a ok (Sv 307)

SMB1H: A good ride. Little Vibration. Just hope the PM shift BC doesn't drive it. (I think most of you should know why) (Sv 190)

Buses I dun recommend:

TIB372C: Seats can be lifted and vibration (not that vigorous as those ELBOs)

TIB1254K: Terrible Interior

There was a day TIB1024H came for to sv. 900 to cameo and the sound is pretty horrid IMO. And its TIB372J not TIB372C.

For me a must try must be TIB1166G. The engine sound is like super powerful and punchy. TIB525K is also one of the few a bus fan must try because of its uniqueness of being TRG. It can be found at 6 to 7am on 911 but makes regular cameos in the day as well, consisting of 859 and 173 fairly recently. TIB588D is anothr must try because of its extremely nice to listen engine; it differs slightly from other SMRT Merz. And for the SBST side perhaps SBS9325E, which performs extremely well and perhaps SBS9844Z, a hopeless bus but for some reason I just like it

In my opinion, ZF B9TLs accelarate slower than Voith B9TLs as ZF B9TLs have 6 gears, resulting in gear change being too fast (same for KUBs) which may slow it down.

Actually the ZF B9s are tuned to change gears at roughly 1800rpm with the exception of the transition between the 2 overdrives......it's the Voith B9s that are actually tuned to change at lower rpms with the exception of that between 1st and 2nd.

??????????????????????

Do you even know what affects the acceleration of a bus? Is it just gearbox???

bus555 SG

Interesting you recommend voith B9. Why you like to contradict yourself? Failure.

WHAt lah dey!? WHat bus I like bu kuan ni de shi leh!! anyway:

SBS2812L = You guess it! Very cool man!! Also it went to my sch today lol.
SBS555S = Dont know.
SBS591L = sounds like a ZF lol but i know it is not.
SBS2683S = dont know also.

But that is not recommended:

SBS7404Z = Hardcore bus! The worst No-kia wifi bus ever!

tintinspartan SG

It cameo-ed on Sv 900 on National Day this year. (9/8/08)

TIB1169Z and TIB1164L engines sound powerful too

Recommend SBS9508U as the bus can speed well along the highway and fast acceleration too...

choww SG

SBS201M

TIB1049L SG

TIB1169Z and TIB1164L engines sound powerful too

Recommend SBS9508U as the bus can speed well along the highway and fast acceleration too...

I tried TIB1169Z but doesn't sound so power as TIB1166G nia

Yeah. SBS9508U also quite nice. Tried and proven =D

jayh272416 SG

SBS3826R? A/C working properly... bus in relatively good condition still.

ngjy22 SG

I tried TIB1169Z but doesn't sound so power as TIB1166G nia

Yeah. SBS9508U also quite nice. Tried and proven =D

I'll never forget my 45mins ride on SBS9508U from Hougang Int to WRI.

SBS997A SG

I tried TIB1169Z but doesn't sound so power as TIB1166G nia

Yeah. SBS9508U also quite nice. Tried and proven =D

Hey 9508U is my fav VO lor xD

But then SBST bus 1 day can be good the next day SBST lock bus liao then bus cannot run liao

eX.A.K.R. SG

I have no recommendations for particular buses, but for bus models overall and generally, I recommend:

For those looking for excellent ride characteristics:

Dennis Trident 3, Volvo B7RLE, Scania L94UB, Volvo B10BLE CNG

For those looking for good commuter comfort (design of interior, seats etc.):

Scania K230UB demonstrator - SBS 8033D, Scania L94UB, SMRT's Volgren-bodied buses, Dennis Lance (U.K. version), Volvo B10BLE Diesel, Volvo B10M MK IV (DupleMestec, DupleMestec DM3500, and Alexander Strider versions), Dennis Trident 3

I object! Laughing

The dennis trident offers some of the worst rides you can ever ask for!

I don't personally think so though - or is it that the acceleration is too much for you?

566117 SG

In my opinion, ZF B9TLs accelarate slower than Voith B9TLs as ZF B9TLs have 6 gears, resulting in gear change being too fast (same for KUBs) which may slow it down.

So an F1 car should use 3 gears instead of 7 gears so that it will accelerate faster?

SBS997A SG

So you are trying to say more gear mean can accelarate better la

No!

It's everything else besides the acceleration.

No lah, he saying 1 gear best :P
