These days, hand and mouth full, cannot talk or type. Here's a pic of a prawn that is as big as a lobster.

 

Just came back from KL this morning. Sat morning going up again, anybody interested in a long weekend ride? Max messaged me before he left for Saudi Arabia last week, he's also interested in riding up this coming Sat. Spent the whole of yesterday cleaning up my new place in KL. If it's not rented out yet, you guys can stay there.

 

Chinggu, I think LD can recommend where not to go. Just curious, is your Blade using Pirelli tires?

yup..

yup..

take a look at the konica minota design

[chinggu]

i thought of juz patch the sctraches nia..

[LastDance]

My bike is sold, so I won't be trading in for the new CBR. Sorry Tashi, won't be able to bring you to purchase the bike

 

chinggu - My bike's paintwork was done at Yeow Motors. The results weren't up to my expectations.

 

Ride safe guys!

yup..

A lot of Bladers complain about Pirelli already. Try lowering the tire pressure. How much does a full set of fairing cost? You want to get mine as a spare, accident free, no drilling of unsightly holes and protected by Tankslappers at strategic areas.

 

Thinking of getting a full CF body, like a MotoGP prototype bike.

 

You all have heard me talk about how I dislike Pilot Power as well. The compound is quite hard, but if I lower the pressure to 230 front and 260 back, it's much better. I've done about 18,000km on it now, seems like there's still quite a bit of thread left. If it's a Bridgestone, have to change tire right about now.

 

Hello Beagle, if it's lousy, when are you taking me for some nice prawns? Don't talk only. And make sure they are prawns, not shrimps. The real Rinpoche just came to KL yesterday, 1st May is Vesak Day in KL, want to go up and do charity or not? Sat morning ride up, Mon morning 6am ride back. A lot of space to sleep on the floor in KL. Don't say I never invite you guys.

 

There's some motorshow in GP R&R last night and this morning, any of you guys saw?

Congratulations. If you're not trading in, are you planning on buying the new 600rr anyway?

[LastDance]

chinggu - price is on the higher side, quality not up to my expectations. You might wanna take up Tashi's offer. Btw, resale value of your bike goes down if it's not original paintwork.

 

Tashi - I was having difficulties selling the bike and the only way shops would take it was if I traded in for a new bike. So since it's sold now I won't be purchasing the 600rr.

 

Bike Production gave me a splendid offer, share the info with you guys in case anyone wants the new 600rr.

CBR600RR7 $15000

COE $1000

Insurance $700++

OTR $16700++

Trade in my bike @ $14000

:cry: Sad to see a wonderful rider lay up his gloves. I hope you'll strike Toto tomorrow and buy a new bike and join us for riding again. Being a wonderful son, I hope you'll get a bigger car to ferry your parents around.

 

Beagle, ya la, my new place. My superglue help me to decorate. Hopefully can rent out, if not, no new 08 Blade. Talk to you soon, meanwhile, pls take the whole week to psycho your superglue.

Wah, this kind is the ridiculously good offer ley. Considering they didn't even want to take my RR4 model for trade in as 'It's not a popular model ley Mr Shark. We're afraid it might be hard to sell'.

yup..

I too am running Pirellis. Super slippery on wet days even tho I only rode it 3 times since I bought it. Maybe I ought to lower the PSI too. What pressure are you running on?

Yeah it's a great offer.

 

I've heard Ah Swee has an attitude problem and true enough he's really "cold" when you talk to him. But once we found a topic, he seems like a nice guy to talk to when he opens up. Maybe just wanna act cool

 

Btw, is your bike still under loan? He has banned a certain shop if your bike is under loan from that shop.

[LastDance]

Btw, I have a buyer who's really interested to buy the 1000rr. If any of you still selling and found no buyer can let me know.

Yeah but I got an embossed one made immediately after.

 

hockie > I agree. Take your money elsewhere. Makes spending it more enjoyable.

 

Edit:

 

Juz curious guys, does Boon Siew provide better warranty for bikes out from them? If there's no better benefits, why buy from them over other shops? Price?
