Toni Elias Signed Poster and Cap at Sepang MotoGP

I was at the right place and at the right moment when I walked to the Givi booth at Sepang MotoGP last week. It was the time when Toni Elias, the MotoGP rider with number 24 bike, was on the signing session with the fans. I was at the front and there I grab a nice Givi cap with Toni Elias poster which is both signed by him. I just got a great memento from Sepang MotoGP.  (more…)

Naza Blade 250, 250R and 650R are a great line-up from Naza for bikers on tight budget. The price are much affordable compared to other bikes on the same category. The specs are also good with 75 degree V-twin engine for the 250 and 90 degree V-twin engine for the 650. Front brakes comes with double disc for the R model which should helps in terms of 100-0km/h range. The front forks is upside down type which helps to minimise the unsprung weight (the weight that not attached to the chassis). Not just that, the engine is DOHC and EFI equipped. Very high specced bike for a very little price.

What do you think guys (or gals)?

1997 Ducati Monster M600

I’ve met Mr H yesterday at Puchong and he brought his newly restored 1997 Ducati Monster M600. Even though this is a restored M600, Mr. H choose not to overdone it by making it looks like new. He said he just want the bike to look ‘well-kept’ but not trying to much to become to look like ‘new’. (Senang cakap nak bagi nampak biasa je, tak nampak macam baru lepas restore). We have just recently viewed the 2011 Ducati Monster 795 which has just been released here in Malaysia, so, this M600 attracts my eyes and I didn’t let the chance to slip to get the picture taken. M600 looks small and much more beginners friendly in terms of weight and ride height. I’m an underbone rider and never had the chance to ride a big bikes like this, but after trying to seat in and leaning it to about 45 degree to the side, I think this bike is easy to handle. The design are simple and everything that it have seems well placed together. I like how it looks and the red/gold colour combination works perfect. To Mr. H, thank you for the opportunity and thanks for restoring the M600 to its glory that it should have. (more…)

Honda Wave SE

Boon Siew Honda booth at Sepang MotoGP are liven up with their new special edition bike that is the Honda Wave SE with HRC Repsol livery. Also on display there are the gold colour EX5 and some of their Wave that is being used for the Malaysian Cub Prix championship. Check 30 more pictures and details after the jump  (more…)

The buddy of Valentino Rossi, Uccio has asked the fan via Twitter of the bike for Super Sic Tribute Edition for the race of MotoGP in Valencia. This is just one of the livery that could be on the GP11 as posted on their Facebook page.  (more…)

Naza Blade 250R

Naza Blade 250 EFI is equipped with Electronic Fuel Injection DOHC V-Twin 2-cylinder engine which should give a great top speed and power. The price are also cheapest when compared to Ninja 250R at 22k and CBR250R at 19k, that is RM13,288. For those who are tight on budget but looking for an entry level superbike, I think this could be the perfect bike. Maybe after owning the bike, you can start thinking about upgrading the bike to a higher specced parts like better brakes, better exhaust system and a little bit of ECU tuning.

This is the bike that we can say ‘don’t think, just buy it’. (more…)

SHOEI XR1100 Pink

KYT RRX Matte Black Flip-up Helmet

I’m now liking the design and the feel of this Kyt helmet which is a popular brand in Indonesia. The design are absolutely nice and look like an eagle. The shape looks aerodynamic. The padding inside the helmet are soft and very comfortable. This is good for long distance ride.

I’m saving my money for this one, or is the white one better?

Packed of MotoGP fans at K1 Grandstand

I have been following MotoGP since the Mick Doohan days in 1990s, but this is my first on site experience of MotoGP. Usually, I just watched in TV and never thought that I could be one of the spectators at the grandstand to experience it live on site. I’ve been there for both of the day on Saturday and Sunday. Sunday is good race day for Zulfahmi since he got 7th place on his home race. Good job!  (more…)

KTM Duke 125

Everyone is waiting for the Duke 200 here in Malaysia. The representative there tells me that we just might get the KTM Duke 125 first in two more month before the arrival of the KTM Duke 200. The price of the Duke 125 are said to be only slightly less than the Duke 200. Anyway, Duke 200 might be available in Malaysia in much later date in 2012. Hope the statement are true. What we can do is just wait, which everyone hates.  (more…)
