Sad to hear this... So how's ur Thumper ?

Need to Overhaul ?

Anyway, ur staying in Penang ? 

Rough estimate about RM80-95k depending on what accessories is thrown in.

ah i see.. thanks.. my friend is selling one at rm100k.. so thinking whether its a good buy or not, not sure what accessories are thrown in, all i know is a full Arrow system exhaust.. will inquire more

by the way guys, asking sth about a helmet, just got my Shoei RF-1100 helmet ytd, tried it on, yes very snug fit.. but problem is its kind of pain at the crown area (the skull right above the ear) where my skull is directly touching the inner shell of the helmet.. the hard part without any padding.. if u guys understand where im referring to   anyone facing this when getting a snug helmet as well? yet to try it on for a ride.. will do it this evening and see how bearable the pain is.. afraid that the pain is there and will compromise riding comfortability..

then the helmet is not the right size or fir for your head.

get a snug, but comfortable helmet

using helmet that cause you pain may distract you from focusing during riding, and may cause accident

worse, if it restricts blood flow and you can pass out when riding long distance

its snug, but not comfortable argh man guess Shoei just dont fit my head size.. i tried on the Shoei X-12 feels ok still and the crown of my head wont touch the inner shell.. wonder why RF-1100 so different from X-12 in terms of sizing

so i just brought it out for an hour ride, really tak boleh tahan the pain caused to the crown area on my head.. after that really feel cant focus on ride anymore.. sad case

anyone interested in my Shoei RF-1100 Merciless helmet? Size L, as good as new only half hour usage

anyone knows how much does it cost for a brand new one in msia? mine i got it from the states for $549.99 including shipping charges.. just wondering how much should i price it

if i want to be a biker, minimum monthly income i should get how much..?
need opinion..tq

damn... rm2k helmet u have to let go just like that only... the risk of buying online w/o trying it onn first

i bought mine last month (from local online retailer) and was very relieved when it fits like a glove the 1st time...
depends on many factors - your bike size, riding type and budget

I have checked with the foreman (abg lan) at Pyoor Batu Caves. It could be the rocker arm is having a problem. Planned to send it by today for further check. Now my bike tersadai kat rumah.. The video below show you what happen to my bike.

after 3 months of riding, i realized something
riding a big cc high powered bike in everyday commute is like playing game with cheat codes

you have the speed of a car on highways

and you have the agility and maneuvrability of a moped in traffic jams
the more i ride the bike, the more i despise driving - being stuck in traffic, having to tolerate slow drivers and worse of all, not being able to crawl to the front line at traffic lights... and when the lights turn green, accelerate into oblivion 

just my 2 sen.

when you have the ability to take a deep breath, relax and know that you cannot do anything about bad traffic, is when you know you are mature enough to handle a motorbike. (or any vehicle for that matter)

btw is ninja 250r next year 2013 will have new model or the same like this year with improve design or something?coz i wanna buy next year

Kawasaki announced today that they will completely redo the ninjette for 2013. The change is meant to crush the CBR250 before it gets started. So I guess we'll need a new section of the forums - pre-gen, mid-gen and new-gen. Some highlights of what they are going to do:

    Fuel injection (finally!)
    optional ABS
    higher flow exhaust with new connector pipe and a higher-volume 3-chamber muffler
    less restrictive airbox
    upgraded suspension (finally!),with rear adjustable single offset laydown shock
    a flatter, better padded seat to avoid cramming into the tank
    wider tires so we'll have more aftermarket choices (150 rear/120 front), but Battlax radials will come stock
    gearing will move to 15/45 to make it more highway capable and get a more useable 1st gear
    LED lights and signals for added safety
    Cosmetic mods will include ZX-14 and 650r styling cues. The blinkers will be flushmount and the rear fender will be redone.

Kawi says it will have 36hp out of the box with the new exhaust and FI. Pricing should stay the same at $4500. I can't wait.

I thought this http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=99878 was just an April Fool's joke ?
