no worries bro, if you want next wednesday we can still meet up cos a few guys can't make it today as well

Hi Disar,

 

If there is enough ppl coming on Wed, why not?

[roytanlk]

Read somewhere in this forum that the fuel consumption is about 22L/km. This is low compared to X9's 25~28km/L and even some 2A scooters. Any reasons/comments for this?

Thanks for the offer, bro. I'll probably join you guys in one of your local outings instead to exchange some pointers etc. Touring on bike up north is too taxing for my old body.

 

Fyi, I'll be getting a X8 soon as well.

2 more days on Monday! Taking over the scooter around 3 pm. Thinking of going to do a EO servicing, transmission check etc. But not sure which workshop to go to? Although I have my regular workshop (sensitive to reveal) when I rode bikes in the past, it seems they don't really specialise in scooters.

 

Know there are the 4 heavenly kings for scooter servicing. But abit apprehensive about going on my own. If any bro going down on Monday after 4pm, maybe we can meet before that and go down together?

 

My HP 8125 5440. Thanks in advance.

[roytanlk]

By the way, would like to ask if the original red master key is lost (only left blue), does it mean that I need to replace the whole ignition for duplication of extra keys. If so, how much would that cost?

 

Cos' the guy selling say bike under hire purchase with shop. But shop say will try to find the master key (which isn't with him). If cannot find, I'm thinking how I should ask for compensation? Should get shop to compensate since they lose it right?

[roytanlk]

Upz, any bros able to advice on the above. Taking over the bike in 12 hrs' time. Too excited to sleep. =)

[Sensible]

Hey Disar,

 

Thanks for planning the trip up to KL. The experience and guidance shown by the senior riders were exceptional.

Had a very enjoyable ride up north on my maiden trip, except for a slight glitch to my bike's clutch. Thought i was done for at that moment in time.

 

Lucky Kenny and his mechanic was on this trip as well and managed to fix the problem for me.

 

Also thanks to all the bros esp. Disar, Fatboy and Recon who helped me with my bike when the problem arose.

 

Will be proceeding down to Kenny's place to do a thoroughly examining again today.

 

Special thanks to bro Justborn who followed and guided me all the way back.

 

 

P.S. And this is the first time i rode in horrendous rain at 100km/hr on my x8..

Hee, quite an experience though.
