Its hard to read whatever crap I type every time I view my blog. If I felt this, I'm sure you guys feel the same. Or is it me getting old? So its 'Go Green' theme this time. Since I am kinda interested to preserve our mother nature, this is one of the way on starting going green and doing my parts.
What about you guys? Feels like slowing down Doomsday? Doomsday as in our Mother Earth sources depleted and collapsed because of our actions. Didn't get it? Hint; recent Tsunamis and earthquakes. Feels like contributing? Do your parts and if you do it, 0.01% can become 100% one day. Yes, its impossible to get all humans to cooperate, but if you yourself didn't contribute, don't expect other assholes to contribute too.
Sharing is caring. I am against Lynas digging up rare earth in Gebeng. Article is copied 100% from this blog. For those who are not from Malaysia or dumb Malaysian who cant read Malays, go find Google Translate.
My small thought on this issue, Government doesn't care. All they care is how can they make more money. Previous case showed that they don't care, and I'm sure this time, they will not care bout this.
Kronologi Kejadian Asian Rare Earth di Bukit Merah
Berikut adalah kronologi penetangan Asian Rare Earth (ARE) di Bukit Merah, Ipoh sehingga penutupannya pada 19 Januari, 1994.
Anda rakyat prihatin. Selamatkan generasi masa depan kita. Bersuaralah dan hentikan pemprosesan ‘rare earth’ di Kuantan sebelum terlambat.
1979
November: Syarikat Asian Rare Earth (ARE) dibentuk untuk mengekstrak itrium ( sejenis unsur nadir bumi) daripada monazit. Pemegang saham utamanya ialah Mitsubishi Chemical Industries Ltd (35%), Beh Minerals (35%), Lembaga Urusan dan Tabung Haji (20%) dan beberapa peniaga bumiputera (10%). Pihak ARE telah mendapatkan pandangan dari Pusat Penyelidikan Atom Tun Dr. Ismail (Puspati), Kementerian Sains, Teknologi dan Alam Sekitar mengenai sisa buangan radioaktif yang dihasilkan melalui pemerosesan monazit. Adalah diputuskan, sisa buangan itu yang menjadi milik kerajaan Negeri Perak akan disimpan kerana berpotensi sebagai sumber tenaga nuklear.
1982
Jun: Penduduk Parit, Perak mendapat tahu kerajaan telah memilih kawasan seluas sembilan ekar, kira-kira 6 km dari penempatan mereka untuk dijadikan tapak penimbunan sisa radioaktif syarikat ARE.
30 Jun: Ekoran bantahan hebat daripada jawatankuasa penduduk serta lain-lain pertubuhan politik dan sosial, kerajaan membatalkan cadangan itu dan kemudian mula mencari tapak baru.
11 Julai: Kilang ARE mula beroperasi di KM 7.2, Jalan Lahat di Bukit Merah.
1983
November: Penduduk Papan (kira-kira 16 km dari Ipoh) mendapat tahu ARE sedang mengorek lubang berhampiran tempat kediaman mereka untuk dijadikan tapak buangan sisa radioaktif. Tapak itu merupakan pilihan kerajaan
1984
24 Mei: Kira-kira 6,700 penduduk Papan dan pekan-pekan yang berhampiran menandatangani satu surat bantahan dan menghantarnya kepada Perdana Menteri, Menteri Besar Perak, Menteri Kesihatan serta Menteri Sains, Teknologi dan Alam Sekitar.
31 Mei: Seramai 200 penduduk Papan membantah tapak pembuangan yang dicadangkan. Mereka menyekat jalan yang menuju ke tapak itu.
5 Jun: Perdana Menteri berkata, kerajaan telah mengambil segala langkah berjaga-jaga untuk memastikan keselamatannya dan menegaskan pembinaan tapak buangan radioaktif di Papan akan diteruskan.
18 Jun: Kira-kira 300 penduduk Papan sekali lagi mengadakan tunjuk perasaan sebagai membantah tapak buangan yang dicadangkan.
28 Jun: Menteri Sain, Teknologi dan Alam Sekitar, Datuk Amar Stephen Yong berkata, tapak buangan Papan adalah selamat kerana dibina mengikut piawaian yang ketat. Beliau mencabar pengkritik supaya membuktikan tapak itu boleh mengancam kesihatan dan alam sekitar. Sementara itu, ARE meneruskan operasinya dengan menimbun sisa torium di sebuah kawasan terbuka dan kolam berhampiran kilang itu.
1 Julai: Kira-kira 3,000 penduduk termasuk wanita dan kanak-kanak mengadakan tunjuk perasaan secara aman sebagai membantah tapak buangan tersebut.
4 Julai: Seramai 2,000 orang penduduk terus mengadakan tunjuk perasaan meskipun Ketua Polis Perak memberi arahan supaya bersurai.
18 Julai: Pembentukan Jawatankuasa Bertindak Bukit Merah, terdiri daripada penduduk Bukit Merah, Lahat, Menglembu dan Taman Badri Shah, sebagai tanda sokongan kepada penduduk Papan. Sahabat Alam Malaysia (SAM) menghantar satu memorandum kepada Perdana Menteri memaklumkan paras radiasi yang tinggi telah dikesan dikawasan kolam terbuka berhampiran kilang ARE di Bukit Merah. Satu bacaan yang dicatat oleh pegawai-pegawai SAM sewaktu berkunjung ke situ ialah 43,800 milirem/tahun. Paras ini melebihi 88 kali paras maksimum yang ditetapkan oleh Suruhanjaya Antarabangsa bagi Perlindungan Radiologi (ICRP) untuk orang ramai.
29 Ogos: Michael O ‘Riordan dari Lembaga Perlindungan Radiologi Kebangsaan British dijemput oleh kerajaan untuk memeriksa tapak buangan toksik di Papan.
19 September: Sekumpulan tiga orang dari Agensi Tenaga Atom Antarabangsa (IAEA) Pertubuhan Bangsa-bangsa Bersatu mengunjugi tapak buangan di Papan atas jemputan kerajaan Malaysia. Mereka mengisytiharkan tapak buangan itu tidak selamat.
5 Oktober: Dr William Cannell, seorang ahli fizik dan penganalisis kesihatan menerima jemputan penduduk Papan untuk melawat tapak buangan tersebut. Hasil pemerhatian beliau mendapati kerja-kerja kejuruteraan yang dijalankan oleh syarikat terbabit sangat buruk.
21 Oktober: Seorang pakar dari Amerika dan bekas ahli jawatankuasa Akademi Sains Kebangsaan Amerika bagi kesan-kesan Biologi Radiasi Mengion (BEIR), Dr Edward Radford, atas jemputan penduduk Papan, membuat tinjauan di tapak buangan sisa itu. Beliau dapati tapak itu tidak sesuai sementara lubang-lubang yang digali mempunyai dinding yang nipis atau sudah merekah.
7 November: Seorang pakar buangan sisa industri dari Jepun, Dr. Jun Ui, menerima jemputan penduduk Papan untuk memeriksa tapak buangan ARE. Beliau juga mendapati tapak itu tidak sesuai dijadikan kawasan penimbunan sisa berbahaya.
28 November: Kabinet membincangkan laporan-laporan yang diserahkan oleh dua badan kawalan. Laporan yang dikemukan oleh Lembaga Perlindungan Radiologi Kebangsaan British (NRPB) berkata, penduduk hanya akan selamat jika faktor-faktor tertentu diberi perhatian oleh kerajaan Perak dan syarikat ARE. Laporan kedua oleh IAEA pula berkata, lubang-lubang yang dibina tidak memenuhi syarat-syarat yang ditetapkan.
9 Disember: Lebih 1,500 penduduk di Papan mengadakan mogok lapar selama sehari sebagai membantah keputusan kerajaan untuk meneruskan rancangan menempatkan tapak buangan sisa di Papan. Penduduk Bukit Merah membawa masuk seorang pakar radiasi dan genetik dari Jepun, Profesor Sadao Ichikawa untuk mengukur paras radiasi di kawasan terbuka dan kolam berhampiran kilang ARE. Beliau dapati paras radiasi di situ terlalu tinggi malah paras tertinggi yang dicatatkan melebihi 800 kali paras yang dibenarkan.
12 Disember: Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Musa Hitam menunjukkan minat secara peribadi terhadap perkembangan isu Papan ini. Beliau mengunjungi tapak buangan tersebut.
1985
11 Januari: Selepas mesyuarat kabinet yang dipengerusikan oleh Timbalan Perdana Menteri ketika itu, Datuk Musa Hitam, kerajaan mengambil keputusan memindahkan tapak buangan sisa ke Mukim Belanja di Banjaran Kledang yang terletak kira-kira 5 km dari Papan dan 3 km dari Menglembu.
1 Februari: Lapan orang penduduk, bagi pihak diri mereka sendiri dan penduduk Bukit Merah membuat satu permohonan di Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh menahan ARE daripada mengeluar, menyimpan atau menimbun sisa radioaktif di sekitar kampung tersebut.
Akta Perlesenan Tenaga Atom 1984 dikuatkuasakan. Ia memastikan pengendali bahagian pemasangan nuklear (termasuk kerajaan) bertanggungjawab terhadap ancaman nuklear. Lima ahli Lembaga Perlesenan Tenaga Atom (AELB) dibentuk di bawah Akta itu, dengan perwakilan dari Puspati, Kementerian Kesihatan serta Kementerian Sains, Teknologi dan Alam Sekitar.
14 Oktober: Hakim Anuar Datuk Zainal Abidin di Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh memberikan kepada penduduk Bukit Merah perintah menahan dan menghentikan ARE daripada mengeluar dan menimbun bahan sisa radioaktif sehingga langkah-langkah keselamatan yang secukupnya diambil. Lebih daripada 1,500 penduduk Bukit Merah hadir di mahkamah untuk mendengar keputusan itu.
1986
22 September: ARE mendakwa ia telah membelanjakan lebih RM2 juta untuk meningkatkan langkah-langkah keselamatan (sepertimana yang dikehendaki oleh perintah mahkamah), diikuti oleh piawaian IAEA. Ia menjemput pakar tenaga atom dari Amerika, Dr E.E. Fowler (Bekas kakitangan IAEA) untuk mengunjungi kilang berkenaan. Menurut beliau, paras radiasi berhampiran kawasan pembuangan yang disediakan oleh ARE memenuhi piawaian ICRP dan beliau dapati kilang itu selamat untuk beroperasi.
5 Oktober: Kira-kira 3,000 penduduk Bukit Merah dan kawasan sekitarnya mengadakan tunjuk perasaan terhadap rancangan ARE untuk menimbun sisa radioaktif di tapak kekalnya di Banjaran Kledang.
28 Oktober: Profesor Sadao Ichikawa dalam kunjungan kali keduanya ke Bukit Merah mendapati paras radiasi di sekitar kilang ARE masih melebihi paras yang dibenarkan. Beliau dilarang masuk ke dalam kilang itu.
16 November: Sekumpulan penyiasat dari AELB memeriksa beberapa buah tapak buangan sisa torium yang dilonggokkan secara haram di Bukit Merah. Mereka dibantu oleh bekas kontraktor ARE, Ng Toong Foo yang pernah membuang sisa di situ. Bacaan di salah sebuah tapak ialah 0.05 – 0.10 milirem/jam (iaitu 438 - 876 milirem/tahun) melebihi paras keselamatan maksimum 0.057 milirem/jam yang ditetapkan oleh ICRP.
26 November: Perwakilan dari tujuh kawasan (Bukit Merah, Lahat, Taman Badri Shah, Menglembu, Papan, Falim dan Guntong) membentuk sebuah jawatankuasa Anti-Radioaktif Perak (PARC).
8 Disember: Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Encik Kasitah Gadam berkata hasil pemeriksaan AELB di dua tapak buangan haram Bukit Merah mendapati paras radiasi di situ adalah selamat. Menurutnya, sungguhpun AELB mendapati paras radiasi di situ melebihi paras normal, ini tidak membahayakan kerana tapak-tapak itu sangat sedikit bilangannya.
1987
6 Februari: Tanpa mempedulikan perintah Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh kepada ARE supaya menghentikan operasi, AELB Malaysia memberikan lesen kepada ARE supaya meneruskan operasinya.
10 April: PARC menjemput 14 pakar asing untuk datang ke Bukit Merah-pengasas-pengasas Institut Antarabangsa bagi Kepentingan Awam di Kanada, Dr Rosalie Bertell; Setiausaha Pusat Keselamatan Industri dan Kepentingan Alam Sekitar di India, V.T. Pathmanaban; dan Presiden Institut Kesihatan dan Tenaga di Amerika Syarikat, Kathleen Tucker merupakan antara mereka yang dilarang memasuki kawasan ARE. Dalam satu forum yang berlangsung di Bukit Merah, pakar-pakar itu membuat kesimpulan bahawa ARE mendedahkan pelbagai ancaman kesihatan yang serius.
12 April: Kira-kira 10,000 orang penduduk berarak di Bukit Merah sebagai membantah operasi yang dijalankan semula oleh ARE.
24 Mei: Kira-kira 300 orang penduduk diperintahkan bersurai oleh anggota Unit Simpanan Persekutuan (FRU) berhampiran ARE. Lebih 20 orang, termasuk tiga wanita mengalami kecederaan dalam dua pertelingkahan pada hari itu. Seramai 60 orang ditahan oleh pihak polis. Semua kecuali enam dibebaskan kemudian selepas disoal-siasat. Keenam-enam pemuda itu dibebaskan seminggu kemudian di mana pihak polis tidak mengenakan sebarang tuduhan. Penduduk menghalang kerja-kerja membina jalan yang menuju ke tapak buangan kekal di Banjaran Kledang yang dicadangkan.
23 Julai: Seorang doktor Kanada, Bernie Lau, diupah oleh PARC untuk meletakkan alat pengesan gas radon di luar kilang ARE. Beliau berjaya mengesan sejumlah gas radon dibebaskan daripada kilang itu.
Terdahulu dari itu, Menteri Sains, Teknologi dan Alam Sekitar Datuk Amar Stephen Yong berkata, kerajaan berpuas hati dengan laporan penilaian kesan alam sekitar bagi tapak buangan kekal yang dicadangkan itu. Penilaian itu dijalankan oleh ARE bersama beberapa orang pegawai Kementerian.
7 September: Perbicaraan saman yang dikemukakan oleh lapan orang penduduk Bukit Merah terhadap ARE bermula di hadapan Hakim Peh Swee Chin di Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh. Sebagai mengetengahkan nasib mereka, para penyokong PARC berjalan sejauh 8 km dari Bukit Merah ke Ipoh. Polis menyuraikan tunjuk perasaan mereka berhampiran Menglembu. Sembilan orang ditahan tetapi dibebaskan setelah diikat jamin. Kira-kira 1,000 orang hadir di mahkamah sebagai menunjukkan sokongan mereka.
11 September: Para penduduk berarak dari Bukit Merah ke Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh pada hari terakhir perbicaraan. Jumlah mereka yang hadir dianggarkan 3,000 orang.
18 Spetember: Penduduk Bukit Merah mengemukakan permohonan perbicaraan kerana menghina mahkamah terhadap ARE memandangkan ia melanggar perintah menahan operasi yang diberikan oleh Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh kepada mereka pada tahun 1985.
27 Oktober: Lebih 100 orang yang ditahan di bawah Akta Keselamatan Dalam Negeri (ISA). Di antaranya termasuklah pengerusi PARC, Hew Yoon Tat; timbalannya, Hiew Yew Lan; (bekas) setiausaha PARC, Lee Koon Bun; ahli jawatankuasa, Phang Kooi Yau dan peguam Pengguna Pulau Pinang (CAP) yang mewakili plaintif Bukit Merah, Meenakshi Raman. Merek dibebaskan selepas dua bulan.
November: ARE mula membina tapak buangan kekal sisa toksik di Banjaran Kledang.
1988
25 Januari: Perbicaraan disambung semula.
1990
13 Februari: Perbicaraan tamat selepas berlansung selama 65 hari dan berlanjutan lebih 32 bulan.
1992

23 Julai: ARE mengemukan rayuan di Mahkamah Agung berhubung perintah Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh supaya operasinya dihentikan. Pengerusi PARC Hew Yoon Tat dan salah seorang plaintif dalam saman terhadap ARE, Lau Fong Fatt menemui kakitangan atasan Mitsubishi Chemical di Jepun. Mereka diberitahu ARE mengemukan rayuan tanpa kebenaran syarikat itu.
24 Julai: Berikutan permohonan ex-parte oleh ARE, Hakim Besar Mahkamah Agung menahan (sehingga perintah selanjutnya) perintah Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh kepada ARE supaya menghentikan operasinya.
3 Ogos: Lebih 2,000 orang dari Bukit Merah hadir di Mahkamah Agung untuk mendengar rayuan ARE terhadap perintah Mahkamah Tinggi Ipoh yang menggantung operasinya. Bagaimanapun, hakim-hakim Mahkamah Agung Menangguhkan perbicaraan kepada 5 Ogos kerana ‘tekanan oleh mereka yang berpiket di luar mahkamah.’
5 Ogos: Mahkamah Agung membenarkan permohonan ARE untuk menolak perintah Mahkamah Tinggi yang meminta ARE menghentikan operasinya berikutan rayuan syarikat berkenaan. Menurut hakim-hakim itu, penutupan tersebut akan menyulitkan kilang dan 183 pekerjanya.
1993
15 Mac: Perbicaraan rayuan yang dikemukan oleh ARE di Mahkamah Agung ditangguhkan pada 7 Jun.
7 Jun: Perbicaraan mendengar rayuan ARE sekali lagi ditangguhkan ke satu tarikh yang akan diberitahu kelak.
1994
19 Januari: Pengumuman syarikat ARE untuk menghentikan operasi.
What happened when you love to 'touch' a car and suddenly you don't have one? You will regret selling it and you don't have anything to fix. All is left is the bike and yes, its a suitable candidate!
The bike's piping is a bit mess when they weld it together. And its been an eye sore to me. Time to fix it!
Resprayed it with common black color. The piping cover was sprayed too.
Damaged spring hook. Happened during welding the bracket.
There ya go. Looks nicer and new spring hook attached.
Also removed my plate number and sticker it up on the mudguard. Looks cleaner this way IMHO. Also bought a net just in case I need to hold something during riding.
Done! But wait a minute..
Time to peel of the factory stickers! And stick it up on my old Getz.
As for now.. Nicer and cleaner. Thinking of spraying it to white color. What do you guys think? You know how much I love white color.
Anyway, Mok and me, we went to the Hari Sejuta Belia held in Putrajaya. Easier with bike when going there. There's a lot of people there and it was tiring..
Enjoying the scenery before going back.
Anyway, I miss going dirty with the bike. In JB, they always have activity. Off-road trail, track and all kind. In KL its a bit slow or maybe I haven't found them yet. Cant wait to meet up with KL friends.
Still enjoying my holiday at the moment. Still havent got bored waking up late at 3pm and sleep late at 5am. Will probably get bored by next week I think. Most of my PS3 games also almost finished and I am about to run out of ideas on what should I do next.
Anyway, my bikes arrived last few days. Since I am a car-less person now, things got a bit hard and a bit fun at the same time. Will get to it pretty soon. Took my bike from the KTM station. Wrapped so that it wont scratch. Gosh I miss riding it. Was super excited when I saw my bike.
The next day, I took the bike to Demak Service Centre at Gombak to claim all the faults and for checkup. End up I have to come back on Monday coz they don't have enough foreman to do all the problemo bikes.
After that, waited for a scrambler shop to open. They opened at 4pm and since its around 3pm, why not wait for it to open. End up I went to Ulu Yam. Foreveralone.jpg. Stopped at Petronas just before the hill climb to have my super late breakfast + lunch.
My first stop was the Ulu Yam offroad track. Just checking out and no intention on offroading that time. One day I wanna play here.
Ride the bike till my twin brother's school. And stopped for awhile to enjoy the fresh clean air before going back to Gombak.
Stopped again. Checking out the scenary and the water fall.
What mother nature provide us and yet we did not appreciate it.
Stopped again at the lake. Breathtaking view.
Stopped at the scrambler shop to buy the skidplate. It was meant for KLX 150 but I really wanted it so they custom fit it. Reason is so that the engine and its frame wont get hurt during off-road from the dirt or rock hitting it.
How it looks after fitting it. Fit perfectly with some help from bracket and washer.
Well, its quite fun for me; a life without a car. Its been a week I think and its been a week I'm not driving any car too. Been riding here and there. Its a bit risky but I do enjoy riding it. Mind you the bike cannot go fast, 80km/h is like very fast already due to its hhhhuge sprocket. Petrol consumption is good too.
Engine? 4A-GE is good. Doesnt matter its 16v or 20v, Silvertop or Blacktop. Its a happy revving engine, easy to maintain, reliable (Depend on the condition too), abundant of spare parts and cheap road tax.
Car? KE70 is simple. Being cousin of the legendary AE86 means it shares a lot of stuffs. But please embed this in your mind, no matter how much you spend on converting it to AE86, its still a KE70. Please keep it original and don't become impostor. Originality comes first. I'm not a purist but I rather keep it original than being fake and most of the times, it doesn't look good when you swap it. Lots of repro stuffs, easy to source parts, and no problem with the car.
So why did I let it go?
Coz its common. Its boring you know when you go to a gathering, its all KE70. Most of it. All with 4AGE. What else you wanna show? Its the same KE70. Its the same engine. No matter how much I tried to become unique (Oh yes I love attention!), its still a KE70. Its so common that people doesn't bother to look at your car. That's the point of gathering, to show your car. I'm being honest here. Who else didn't think of that? And no matter how much I spent on it, it still cant go up beyond market price. RM15k is the highest you can sell but it must be in mint/completely swapped to performance parts condition. I believed my car is done in every aspect. There's nothing else to be done on the car. Only maintenance is left.
Main reason I choose KE70 is its practicality for drifting. There's no need for me to elaborate on this one. Y'all know already. Yes, I love drifting. Yes its so fucking cool! Oh yes, its awesome when people looks at you especially chicks. And yes, it saves my life few times already when my car lost control. Earlier its fun when we have MARDI track, others like D18 track is fun, Karunmas and other illegal spot. But then, KE70 only stays there. It have its own level mark. You cant go above it. Its there and you will stay there. Plus MARDI is no more. That's my biggest disappointment. I love the place, I love the ambiance, I love the people, I love the track, and I love going sideways there.
See how fun can it get with a Corolla. The best moment ever going sideways other than MARDI. Zamil was there too.
And drifting is a harsh and fun sport. You will damage your car, will wear and tear most 'muscle' and etc. Car is in good condition for now, but in the feature I know I cant afford to have another mega project or whatever happened next if the car decide to fail on me. Better let it go now before I cant afford to fix it. Oh, my parents hate the car. Cant ask money from them too :D
Feedback saying I am using my parents money which I cant deny that especially when surprise repairs emerge or anything urgent need to be replaced. You know, who else gonna spent your parents money if it is not you yourself? :D
Another awesome thing from Rolla is that I learned so much from it. Engine wise, mechanical stuffs, basic wiring and logic, and basic automotive knowledge. I know I didn't went to automotive school, but still I can learn from the car itself. Some basic stuffs. I think I have enough basic knowledge from the car. Time for new learning experience from other type of car.
Anyway, there's no need to brag or too proud if you go to automotive school and get a job earlier than average of us. I am doing my Degree that's the reason I did not work yet. Plus monthly pocket money is fun, of course from my parents. The money will stop once I stop studying. So I rather go for a Master first before working.
Other points like police or JPJ marking KE70 as 'hot' car also contribute it. No matter how legal the car (Mine is semi-legal. HAHA), you will probably get stopped and will get checked. Its not comforting you know, the uneasy feeling every time you drive. Thief marking Corolla as hot item also is a problem for others. Mine is parked inside the house or campus, so its less risky.
There's still some point but I already forgot it.
Achievements with Corolla? Pretty much accomplished! From newspapers, movie, magazine, Internet media few times, its pretty much everything. I didn't plan for it but it happens. Which owner will not become happy and proud of it? I'm proud of it and I think its a perfect time to move on. I mean to other chassis.
Last fuel refill.
Next? I wish for something more powerful. More like SR20DET, RB20DET, or whatever more than my 20v could produce. But if my parents decide to use the money to buy a new car, then I will just use it. No complaint, no hesitation. Satria Neo would be nice. Its fit one of my criteria; it must be less than 4doors. Test drive the 308 Turbo the other day. Looks good too but....
On my mind now is Bluebird 910. Or maybe other options like the Silvia S13, or Celica maybe? For now I will take it easily and slowly. No more rushing like before. Rush will only lead you to bad things most of the times. I learned it TWO times, one with my 808 and the other one is the Corolla. Experience makes me a better person. Makes me look things in different aspect. Not to forget all my sifus, your comments and suggestion are the best.
Oh, anyway, my bike is on the way to KL by now. Posted it a bit late by train. Thanks to my dearest Iza and her dad for sending it to me. Cant wait to ride it soon.
Anyway, I think the Corolla is pretty much sold by now. Car's going inspection and name transfer. Sad eh? Work so hard on the car, time spent, money out, the effort, end up its on sale. Reason?
On holiday mood at the moment. So no mood to write anything as I am enjoying a lot of rest for my body and brain. Hehe. I think its worth it. My pointer this semester should be around 3.5 range. I am happy and really satisfied with it.
800km on the ODOmeter and1 week plus old bike and its leaking already. Mind you I never speed up more than 80km/h and never pull the throttle to maximum revving. Ghahahahaha. What a quality bike!
Bought this from a friend and got it installed. Acceleration really improved and comes with very loud noise too! Milage is now 700km+.
And more safety equipment. I'd say this sport require you to fall down a lot to master the art. And me myself and the bike had fell down quite a number of times. Not to say Mok also fell down and broke the side mirror. LOL. Scratches are building up here and there now.
I knew the exhaust is a bit too low. Will fix it when I got time. My friend weld it a bit short.
Gotta go study now. Tomorrow is the third last paper~
Getting ready for today's activity. Oh I bought a leather boots for offroad use. So no more messy class shoe after this. Still waiting for my knee and elbow guard. And also the NOB1 exhaust maybe tomorrow since the bike almost reach 500km already. I guess the piston ring is medium rare now.
Nothing much except I enjoyed the session. Plus I fell down today on this spot after the uphill. Dent my hand guard.
Trying to do the sideways on loose sand.
Chasing one of the members.
Mok getting used to the bike. Today she learned how to go down the sandy hill. Tomorrow she shall learn to go off the muddy bank, and maybe soon she'll going sky high.
And finally I went flying after a few attempt.
Well, its fun. Lets do it again tomorrow shall we? Tomorrow's program going to start at 9am. Somewhere near Pulai trail. Different group but wth, I'm not gang-type person, I wanna join all group if possible. So tomorrow, new friends again.
