hey kalyan...lets tour wood lands....show us the hot spots

 

Yishun Chichane - everyone takes the 2 bends at 40kph. I go 80... in the rain. Who said phantom can't be sportstourer :3

 

Admiralty road is a nice place to test engine on. Long, straight, traffic free, at night there's a lot of mist for additional 'water assisted' cooling.

 

I'm allergic to crowds so lol.

Combine with Pureice Raindance ™ for best results.

 

Oh while I'm on the subject... where to buy alcohol (thinking of the rubbing alcohol kind). Germans in 1943 had MW50, I have Guardian brand

 

I got a good deal on a used computer heatsink I shall use for the intercooler. However, seller is sleeping.

 

And damn the exhaust wrap thread disappeared. There goes my racoon pattern stockings.

Not wanting to dampen your mood. But your bike now only worth $200...So with your add on...you calculate....

$#$#@! exhaust wrap in silver not available. Not getting the black. Time to find alternative materials!

 

What kind of fabric doesn't melt/catch fire at 300 deg C. Tie a huge bow tie on the header.

 

Victorian steam engine instruments project can proceed - oven thermometer - $5-10 each!

 

Now for a pressure gauge... which I need to modify to display vacuum instead.

no matter what colour the exhaust heat wrap was initially... it will turn white over time...

[Pandoras Kitten 3]

Lol I just wanted an excuse to NOT spend money lol. All DIYs must cost less than chicken rice!

 

Hmn... Aluminum foil.... Roll on and spray stripes of hi temp black for the raccoon tail look!

 

Later that night...

 

I thought to listen to some properly Germanic music and got the water-injection prototype working. :3

even if a person is selling his bike... he can still continue to improve on it...

[Markopolo]

Haha. Ben.. u can cheat dumbos like me.. HHAHA. i got cheated into buying a 150 for 2k plus.. sadded

[Pandoras Kitten 3]

Lol make yourself feel better - what 2B cruiser can hit 170?

well... from the comments around here.. it seems that his bike is already worthless... hahah:angel:

[Markopolo]

maybe we should start saying.. 150 is super value for money. den raise its value. so when newbies read up on bike and read. den slowly words will spread 150 is super worth. 2 years later when i sell.. HEHE

[Pandoras Kitten 3]

I'm doing my part saying things like "170kph", "made in japan" and "NSR engine". Someone should lease me a TA150 and I shall video myself racing on it.

 

Like Malaysian cub advertisements.

[pureice68]

Ya, some 150 riders I know were trying very hard to psycho the rest of the 200 riders to convert! But dunno how successful they were lor! Anyone got converted?

[jtzx]

i think is supply and demand.. the moment people looking for ta150, the price shoots...

Water injection trials part 2:

 

The local cubs are wondering why a big fat, furry phantom was accelerating like it's a 125Z... while another phantom wondered why it was so quiet. Until I let er rip and oh dear, in enclosed spaces I almost deafened myself.

Were my eyes deceiving me or were there Olympic rings painted on the PIE/KJE to commemorate the YOG?

these are priority lanes for YOG vehicles...u are suppose to give way to them

 

If that's true the best riding position is behind the YOG buses; let them batter their way through the traffic, turn on hazard lights / chingay lights and look official :3

While riding to work, all the taxis were staring at me (as in the people inside). A X8 scooter rider was also quite curious as to why I was reaching under my legs at a traffic light. That's where the water controls are dammit
