Finally, a breakdown..

After 6 years +, my first bike breakdown.

The check engine light has been on for the last few days. Today, while riding to the IT office, the bike was jerking, as though the fuel injection valves were jammed. Being generous on the throttle didn't send fuel into the engine.

Bike finally died at Menara Felda and I pushed it to Caltex on Jalan Tun Razak. Called my usual bike shop but they said too far and asked me to try to ride the bike back slowly. I tried, but no way it will reach PJ. I don't think it can even reach my office.

Called a few other shops, lucky one shop offer to come today. Sim motor in Jalan Ipoh. They are also a Modenas dealer. Cost is rm80 to bring the motor to their workshop. Funny that they asked whether I was going to repair the bike in their workshop... Duh... Of course.

Anyway, I'm planning to try out the Modenas Pulsar RS200. Let's see if I can get a good deal on it.

Happy Birthday to Me

My MHR silver helmet jammed up on my birthday, 29 Feb 2016. Yayy... this happened when I was otw to visit a vendor to collect some items. Lucky I was able to remove the helmet without opening the visor.

Went over to Sentul and bought a new Givi helmet, allegedly 100% original. Cost RM400 and another 6% GST. Total damage RM424. New Givi helmet is lighter, has an internal black visor, more air ventilation, feels more snug (closer to the face), and classier.

Apparently repairing the jammed helmet is not worth it, unless the helmet costs RM1k and above. Just the workmanship would cost RM100++.

Oh well, happy birthday to me.

Air Jordans 3 and 10 for sale (Size US11)

If you're looking for the O'min cue, please scroll down to the next post.

Update: AJ10 Cool Grey/Infrared is SOLD

I'm selling my Air Jordan 3 Powder Blue and Air Jordan 10 Cool Grey/Infrared shoes after a (very) short stint in wearing the Air Jordans. High cuts don't really suit me, and I don't see myself as a collector, buying up all 28 (XX8) versions of the Air Jordan series.

Shoes have only been worn once!

 I'm looking for around RM750 for the AJ3 powder blue. Let me know if you're interested @ 012-2232711 Both shoes are guaranteed original with proof of purchase from Hoopstation (AJ3) and Hip&Hoop (AJ10). I have tons of pictures, but here are a few pictures:

Omin Classic Que @ RM500

I'm selling my Omin Classic que which has been with me only for a couple of months. I got it second hand from a Mr. Richard who is a que servicing guy. When I got it, it was already setup by him, with a new tip, hand-sanded. I'm looking for RM500 for the que, which is really under-utilized by me. Stopped playing after my 2nd child and need the money to fund another purchase :) Comes with a CM1 soft case which I bought new from a snooker shop in Cheras. Whatsapp or call me at 012-2232711 if you're interested!

On another note, yesterday night I brought a passenger on the FZ150 for the first time. It was a piece of cake :)

Box it in!

Gave in and bought a Givi box today. Been stuck in the rain one too many times. Went for at least 2 meetings drenched wet. So during my 3,000 km service, installed a Givi bracket and E33 box. Bought a substantially better Givi raincoat and paid RM508 for the entire bill :`(












I was afraid it was going to look ugly, but it doesn't look THAT ugly. Just reasonably bad. Its not a huge box, and only fits one full face. But it will store my raincoat, water + gel, rain slippers/shoes.
