Smith.

Finally its time to replace my old goggle with a brand new one. This time no more China stuff. Just some basic Smith goggle which was given to me by my bro and a friend of mine, Zu as my birthday present along with the MX jackstand.

Will use it on the race day this Sunday!

Suzi RMX.

Went back to KL two days ago. When I arrived, someone called me and interested to buy my KX125. Without much thinking, we made a deal. Send the bike yesterday at Klang at 11pm, and then I open up the browser on my Blackberry that showed this Suzuki RMX for sale in Pahang. Quite a time for sale, so I called him and asked about the bike. He said still available and I said I wanna come now to check the bike.

 

Bye KX.

A bit inproper time to call a seller, with a sleepy tone he said OK. I said I'll be there at 3am. So I went back to Kajang, our hangout place/workshop, borrowed the workshop's pickup truck. And it suprised me when the owner, Ken told me he wanna come with me to Temerloh since that is his hometown. He said why not, plus I had not been going here and there for some time already. My brother decided to follow us too.

 

Ken's pickup truck named Fail-Lady.

 Fuel filled up and ready to go! Ken used to drift also before he started the workshop.

After about 3hours, we arrived at Chenor, Pahang. Waited for the owner to guide us to his home to check out the bike.

We checked out the bike immediately. Its a Suzuki made. Its 2-stroke and it is a 250cc bike with coolant. 2-stroke do come with Power Valve nowadays. Power Valve; VTEC/MIVEC sort alike for a bike lah to keep it simple. I believed its a 1999 RMX. Its a trail bike, not an MX like the KX.

After some testing here and there and a throughout inspection by Ken, of course he's more expert than me. Pointing out here and there some repairs needed, the budget and finally me and the owner come to the main point of this meet up, the price. After some negotiation, its a deal and it is sold to me. Ken tied the bike behind and we were off to KL back around 6am.

 

Ken drove all the way from Kajang to Chenor and then back again to KL. Its 7.30am and we reached the last RnR before the Gombak exit. Ken told me to drive since he's sleepy.

Arrived safely at Kajang around 9.30pm. Pretty bad traffic in MRR2 from Gombak to Cheras. Drop the bike and its time for me to test it.

After a few round, and Im smiling ear to ear now. After all my banner in this blog had been the Suzuki RMZ450. And for 2-stroke, 250 is the highest cc available. So, some sort dream come true I guess.

I had been dreaming to have this bike since late December. A friend gave me a link for this bike, and had been wishing to have it since then. Power of visualization perhaps?

Time for me to get some rest. Oh, by the way, would like to say a big thank you to the Wai Keong Motor owner, Ken and my brother for accompanying me to Pahang. Its unplanned and random act. All in all, we made it back home safely. Alhamdulilah.

Mashup.

Some new stuffs for the bike. Since the fork boots already torn, bought a new Acerbis fork gaiters to replace it.

2litre water bag for easy drinking during trail.

A new gear lever. The old one really need to be replaced after a few fall down.

 

A complete set of Demak DTM cover set. Kawasaki bike with Demak cover set?

 

Fitting time. Should be done in a few weeks. Ken said its possible with some bracket welding. Since I cannot source out the original complete cover set I might opt for this one. Of course I am not gonna keep the original stickers.

Most of the Kajang Dirt Bike Team riders send their bikes here. Also some of them keep their bikes here. That include me also. Never keep it at home now.  Young owner, Mr Ken. Very friendly and will listen to their customers. We all get along with him and his wife. Also an ex-scram rider. So a good place for us to hangout and repair/source items for our bikes. Here's the shop's direction if you are nearby.

Sepah The Movie.

There are other photos but here's some photos from the official photographer for this film.

Smallest of em all!

Ready, set, GO!

Its Alive!

Got a call from the Uncle today. He told me that the bike is alive already. Went to the shop and tested the bike here and there. Quite powerful considering its small size. To start it is a bit heavy due to oversize piston. Few more stuffs need to be sorted like the rear height, the sprocket and brake service.

After that will send the bike to my usual car workshop (Speedster Garage) for wiring sort out, and I'll be spraying the frame and engine myself there. Some welding required for the new bracket to fit in the new cover set since both coverset arent meant 

Also the bike need to be run-in for few hundred kilometers. Now where the hell I'll be going then? The bike is purely offroad use. Maybe circling the whole campus like 20 to 30 times. After the run in, then only it can be used for offroad activity.

Front fork is way too angled. Balanced it out by increasing the rear height.

New sprocket will be bigger so that it will not rub against the swing arm. Also new chain tomorrow.

Need to increase the height.

By using this bracket.

Pit Bike Progress II.

Here's some progress for this week.

Bought a chain tensioner for the bike.

Guess what's inside the plastic?

A completely brand new cover set for a pitbike! Some said its the Kawasaki 80cc pitbike cover set. But I could not confirm it either. Anyway it consist a front mud guard, front guard, rear mud guard, side panel, a fuel tank and its side cover, and a new seat. Anyone interested can order it from me too. The price is RM420 for this complete set. Comes in green and red color.

Here's an example the coverset on a 80cc pitbike. But the engine had been converted to a Kriss engine.

Back to the shop; uncle said that the engine is basically a fucked up engine. The racing block and the Kriss piston had been installed, but there's still other stuffs needed to be replaced. Since Imma noob bout motorcycle stuffs, I dunno the name of this. Hahahaha. Anyway, its fucked up.

The new carburator of EX5 had been installed too.

Engine wise almost done. Gonna spray it to make it looks nicer once it can be started.

Should be done by this week hopefully.

Pit Bike Progress.

Hey this blog is still alive. Just still not in the mood to write things up since there is nothing to be shared basically.

So here's some update on the pitbike taken last week. Yeah, I am lazy to write this up.

Few classmates were trying the bike.  Note that the front fork position is a bit weird. This is because of the rear absorber is sitting way too low.  Will fix this by putting a bracket or change the rear absorber to a taller one.

While at the shop.

The next day, it's already been disassembled.

So that's that for last week progress.

Project : Pit Bike!

The last deal was unsuccessful. Tak jadi broo. But this time its gonna happened!

Bought this piece of shit for a small amount of money, its freakin cheap. The downside? Piston ring is worn out, and it need to be overhauled. So Imma gonna restore this baby!

It is powered by an EX5 engine so engine wise parts are easy to source and cheap too. Together with the bike, I bought also a racing block and its piston (No I lied. The piston comes from Kriss actually).

Now, where do I source out its cover set?

Cub Cross.

New addition? Basically its a Yamaha RX-S (or is it RX-K or RX-135 Im not sure). Its a 2-stroke bike with 135cc. Had been custom/converted to a cross. Its a cub-cross. I think I am buying it~

2 Wheelers. Finally.

Should be arrived in few days I guess. Already paid some amount for booking. The color will be black. One thing for sure, this bike is wayyyy to tall for me to sit on it. Already told them to make it a lil bit lower so that I can sit on it without much problem. That's a problem shortys have if you are short like me. Ghahahaha. I am around 170cm. The bike is already 3/4 my height.

For a bike that is within RM5000 range, I guess this is the best. 200cc, 5-speed with clutch, and its a scrambler. Will have the exhaust changed to NOB1. The shop is offering it with the bike for a small amount. Why not?
