VI did a fab job replacing the whole ABS unit (which would have costed me, what, RM2000 if out of warranty?). Screw the service center unless you're willing to wait weeks and weeks on end - just go straight to this guy. Recommended. 4 thumbs up if I had that many hands.

I was at GS Cycle's new branch in Setapak today. Lots of used bikes in the showroom.

I spotted a puddle of oil on the shiny showroom floor and wondered which shit bike made this mess. Then I realized there was a Dominar 400 next to it... I rolled my eyes... coz I immediately knew that pool of oil came from its forks (once mine bled themselves dry just sitting in the parking lot for a few months during the pandemic).

These are very special fork seals, the angry fanboys on FB once told me in defence of the bike. My fault for not installing fork gaiters, they said. I was ignorant for not oiling the fork stanchions to make the operation smoother for the seals, they said. I was a lousy owner because I didn't know the seals were specially designed for a bike that had to be ridden constantly, they said.

The memories came flooding back when I saw that puddle in the showroom today... haihh...
