[psyk]

Hi toobez.. Yup i'm hus's friend.. nice meeting u guys that day.. how's your liquor? managed to get a good price for it?

 

No regrets over getting the bike so far.. Just went for my 2nd petrol top-up just now.. FC that i calculated was around 24-25km/l.. think that's about average lah..

 

patricc- when i was looking for my bike, those 3 bikes you mentioned were the ones i checked out also.. but spectre sold off before i managed to pass my license.. chow's was a bit over my budget.. arjen's friend.. i went to view the bike.. in the end, i bought from a shop.. for your tp anyway..

Clean then lube la.

 

Last time i just go buy a very cheap engine oil, unicorn, 1 litre for 2 bucks only, use a brush, then clean the chain with a brush and then wipe it off...

 

Very good and clean...

Adoring kiddos,

Hideaway

plz dont tell me u hit a kid.....

[Hideaway]

Nope ~ I didnt . . . I swayed left avoid the kid whose playing at the carpark slope ~ throttle closed ~ I think I practically slide up the slope ~ (Its raining and he's playing hide and seek with his school mates)

 

Handguard gone (THANK YOU ACERBIS~ you saved my hands~ my job~)

 

Left Crash bar gone (Thank you SW motech~ you saved my $12k bike)

 

Left side panniers and rack slightly bend inwards (Thank you H&B for protecting my legs!)

 

Just a piece of advice for fellow vara riders ~ its true ... the crash bar's EXPENSIVE .. the side panniers always a hindrance to you , u cant squeeze here and there .. but ..... It does its function well in saving YOU~ no matter how slow or fast you are riding (i am riding like 15-20km/h) .. it will surely play a part ...

not sure...looks like a datuk...

very tall chinese fellow...

his group consist of 2 STX (his bodyguard)...

1 GS12 (sweeper, cos he came in last at the rest area)

1 sportbike (recce team, he was the first to reach before the convoy came)

and a few others....R1...harleys...and some other sportbikes...

 

the Kawa belong to Batu Pahat Riders (BP Riders)...

mostly all sportbikes....old malay uncles riding...

 

Just for info..

R1 n ZX10 cost more than RM100k there....

so a beemer might cost around RM150K...

someone owning that type of bikes could be of high status...
