4Nov2013 - Finally It's Here!

I received a call from bike shop and got informed to bring home Madass! I was so excited.

I asked my wife to send me all the way from Subang to Batu Caves, I bring along my old helmet, then the salesman handed me some goodies, I brought home a helmet with some  'Momos Maddas' vinyl on it which can't come off easily provably painted with some clear coat on a black gloss paint, a rain coat which is quite heavy, a brake and a cheap disc lock.

I never ride on a manual clutch operated bike before and this day was my first time. It took me a minute to get familiarize with hand clutch and ride it to the nearest gas station. I pumped 4 liters of Ron 95 fuel, tried to start the motor but it ain't running and I tries to figure out what happen to the bike or did I missed something? I forgot to the turn ON the kill switch -.-!! It took me 2 minutes to figure out, oh silly me.

It was 5pm and it was a peak hour time, everybody was on their way back to home. Shifting gears to gears was like switching on and off the lights instantly, I let go the hand clutch completely and was quite nervous probably will cause the clutch to wear faster. I drove constantly at 80km/h tried not to go beyond during run-in period.

That's the picture which I took at the parking lot beside my condo.
