Hi Guys

 

Then on a lark, I rode it to Phuket! I did absolutely nothing to it, not even the basic oil change and sure enough, the piston died on me in Ipoh. So after an overnight overhaul(RM889), I carried on the journey and made it. I'll be back in Dec09 to Phuket to ride it all the way to Laos.

 

Next time tell that someone who say cubs are only good for delivering newspapers to shove it up their A#@ !!!

 

Cheers

 

 

Salute u, Dude!!

Hi Guys

 

This is a tribute to the No. 1 bike in the world - The Honda Cub - as claimed by the BBC documentary and they were right!

 

The bike is a 1988 (21 years old) 90cc cub. I swapped it like 6 months ago from a Defu Lane bike shop with my 12 year old Super4.

 

Then on a lark, I rode it to Phuket! I did absolutely nothing to it, not even the basic oil change and sure enough, the piston died on me in Ipoh. So after an overnight overhaul(RM889), I carried on the journey and made it. I'll be back in Dec09 to Phuket to ride it all the way to Laos.

 

Here are 2 pics to prove it! First one is the from Promthep Cape. Second one is at Sarasin Bridge into Phuket.

 

Next time tell that someone who say cubs are only good for delivering newspapers to shove it up their A#@ !!!

 

Cheers

 

 

 

madness! well done bro. we all should meet you so that you can tell us a detailed story about it.

wow props dude.. im inspired.. was just tryin to convince my scram rider GUY friend a week ago to ride around SEA on bikes since we're planning to backpack there but he said its just too bloody dangerous now i can show him this to beat his ass hehe

 

so how was the meetup? totally missed the date.

[zen9er]

by the way, any kind soul here can tell me how can you spoil an IU under warranty conditions? hehe.. dodgy i know.. but i just bought a really old looking 2nd IU and was told the warranty ends sometime next year. so naturally... hee

[machine k]

pm-ed you

 

and... i would also like to look for a kaki to do a long ride up. Anyone keen on vietnam? Basically all the way up.

 

i've been too inactive on forum lately. haha

Anybody knows where I can get an IU for my C70? Need it urgently as my HDB carpark is changing to Wilson next Tuesday.

i would strongly advise you to get a 1st hand IU as the warranty is 5years..

Most 2nd hand IU dont come with warranty... so when something happen to your IU......you are left stranded... trust me... the "IU" are not dat reliable... always got something wrong

[owet]

Thanks, I got a new one from Viacom on Saturday. But this morning I realized that the headlight is not working when in the low-beam mode. Could be the wiring gone loose when fixing the IU.
