It's been a while since the last post!! Many things have happened along the way. Most significant event being my engagement of course.
Guess what!? Engine oil leakage while riding!
No wonder before the ride it was kinda oily/slippery when I stepped near my bike. The nut was probably already loose, which eventually fell off and caused the full leakage of my engine oil after 20 minutes.
Thankful for the kind rider warning when he saw what was happening under me (Totally unaware of my situation). At least I had ample time to pull aside before any knocking sounds came from my engine.
Had to stop aside and called in for towing to fix up the problem. Oh well, 1st major problem after 1 year of riding.
Free engine oil! Anybody?!!
Got a call from my mechanic a few hours later. Screw thread was slightly damaged, new nut replaced. No big issues.
Other than this, still considering whether I should do something about the "rough" changing of gears at times. Although it doesn't give me any problems.... probably just my OCD side hahhaha!
Thinking of keeping my Suzuki DR200 even after getting a Class 2 bike. Will continue thinking about this till I decide what I really want. Just gives me more reason to fix up the small issues on this bike!
*29 September
A date to look forward to, as I enroll for my Class 2A license.
Almost a year into riding. Everything has been going well so far. Really enjoying my time, no regrets!
Still eyeing on my dream bike, the BMW R1200GS. Maybe in another 1 years time. We shall wait and see...
BMW 1200GS
Changi Coast road is one of my favourite roads to ride. Long straight roads, with some parts slightly curvy. You can always stop by Changi Village while you are there to grab a drink and chill. A place so far yet so familiar....
More to come! Videos especially!! Ride safe!
