wtf...park at Ginza so often, then kena today. Sigh...can't be too trusting lah...times are bad. Petty crime-rate has increased.

 

KNN...but riding a cruiser without box is quite lehchey. how..have devise some better way of storing my helmet. maybe a metal cargo net chained to my bike ahha.

simi colour 1??..silver c bo??...Spore has SR150 2 colours..1 is the replica colour like Rae's siggy n 1 is silver...

 

the 50cc 1 dat I like most is the white replica colour wif the lion head...If this scoot is being brought into Spore in mass I might really go n but 1..but too bad itz limited so I dun tink I wanna spend almost 10k on a small scoot like this..might as well ride a bigger bike or a cheaper runner

picked my bike up. Heng it was still there!

 

What's wrong with your signal light exactly?

[rae07]

ultimax>> so u din lose ur helmet afterall??

 

anyway..juz tot of doing the inside of signal cos it was pretty dark. well..prob's solved at the expenses of a broken signal. =P

 

spy622>> think all of them have the lionhead. i like the black and orange version. looks damn sporty!

helmet was stolen, but bike wasn't! I had to leave it there because I took a cab home so I was a bit worrie.d Picked it up 4 hrs later after borrowing ah elmet from a friend.

[rae07]

finally..found time to take pic of my bike. her's the pic of my bike after spraying.

[rae07]

here's another. tried to take a pic of hazard light switch but could get it clear with my hp camera. so i guess another time for tt.

[rae07]

btw guys..i'm having bits of gap @ the back. seems tt the side panel's not fitting well. and i need a dry cell batt. the batt water's leaking and caused stains on my belting cover.

 

and my paintwork ain't tt good...maybe cos of the matt lacquer i finished it off with. and i'm to be blamed cos my sanding's not tt gd...esp for the speedo panel area.

 

my hazardlight works together with signal. meaning i've gotto turn on signal b4 i swtich hazard light. cos i got different kinda switch. but i dun mind cos the switch i got suits the look of the bike.

 

overall's pretty alright. acceptable standard.(to myself tt is...) and satisfactory frm DIY's way above anything else.

 

here's a breakdown

------------------------

total time spent:- 8-9 hrs (wasted 2 hrs looking for paint cos i din have enuff)

 

amt spents:- ard $30 (3 cans of matt black, 2 cans of primer, 1 can of red and 1 can matt lacquer + sandpaper)

 

hazardlight cost:-

 

 

next up...will try do all kinds of electrical stuff i can tihnk of. but gonna be slow cos sch's starting.

I've got your battery. Or Killkenny's? Fully charged and ready to go. If you want, u can pop by my place (Clementi) and have it installed tomorrow?

 

Nice paint job. All that's missing now are LED and neon lights. Then add one disco ball on your bike and you're set!
