New year start for all scooter riders.

 

Btw, I left my joyride untouch since 23 Dec till 31 Dec. It was terrible. Couldn't start and i fear the worst of late appointment and calling for tow truck. Kick start or electric start was unsuccessful until 15min later. Its suddenly came to life bit by bit and it start runnning.

 

A word of warning to all. For older version of joyride/GTS from 2004 or earlier, please start your bike regularly as often as once every 2 days. Newer version of GTS and joyride, please go for tunning every year. Its seem like the original taiwan parts does not last.

 

Many of my internal parts like clutch bell, bearings and clutch plate were change to non original which in fact help me achieve higher top speed and power with of course higher fuel consumption. My regular FC was 26.6km/L drop till like 25+km/L or so.

 

Take care for all riders and ride safely. :goodluck:

Car:

Leisure driving and family outing

Kia Cerato/Auto/Sedan:

Present FC: 11.03km/L

From 23rd Dec till 31 Dec is about 9 days and you're still able to start after 15min, that's very fortunate of you. 3mths ago I left my 1yr old GTS for about 8 days untouch and after I came back from my holidays, when I switch on my ignition, there wasn't any light indication at all. I used a multimeter and measured the voltage of my battery and it was only left with 4V... :giddy:

I don't blame people who doesn't show courtesy, they just didn't get taught on how to do so.

More performance means faster wear and tear means higher maintenance means more $$$ spent. :cheeky:

Seen one before right in front of my eyes, it's a black color GTS, so I think it's possible. You can try to shop and enquire around for those shops that are selling GIVI stuffs in Jalan Besar area. :smile:

Yupz, saw one before too. Looks nice but I wonder how will it be to 'squeeze' during a traffic jam......
