Stephen from Bermuda sent me these pictures of his modification to Yamaha Nouvo S in Bermuda. The execution is well done with the blue body colour that matches the seat and the sport rims. Front disc has been upgraded with bigger diameter at 300mm. On the inside, the cylinder bore has got new breath with 59mm cylinder block combined with forged light weight piston from Haen in Indonesia. Cylinder head also has been reseat, ported and polished with the installation of big valve. Camshaft is custom grind to +3mm lift. Electrical system also upgraded with the addition of high power ignition coil with ground lead followed with programmable CDI with custom mapping. For the transmission, it got the help of Dr. Pulley rear clutch and front variator to make it runs well. 4 more pictures after the jump. (more…)

This article is dated 20/08/2003. It has been 7 years that Yamaha have started to research and develop fuel injection system for small motorcycle. It have many challenges like sensors placement, compacting the injector module and how to make it use less electricity.

While browsing to look at 2010 Yamaha Malaysia bikes line-up, I stumble upon this two familiar bikes that is Yamaha SRX and Yamaha SRV which already exists on the market for long time ago (in year 2003, I guess). Now, it has make its comeback to the website. I wonder why it is being featured in the website now. Is Yamaha Malaysia planning to sell these bike along with the newly introduced Yamaha Lagenda 115Z and 115ZR?

We know Yamaha always introduce bike that have radical styling, latest technology and extraordinary design. SRX and SRV by this definition looks outdated, old and seems out of place with all the great bikes that they have like Yamaha 125ZR, Yamaha 135LC and Yamaha Lagenda. (more…)

Found this on the workshop where I used to buy my bike. I didn’t know that the Honda EX5 is still available with the electric starter option. Based on my previous knowledge, Honda only produced the electric starter version of the EX5 only for a brief period but, now, it is back. Or does it never go? The back page is after the jump. (more…)
