the end of the bike hunt..

about a month ago i started off a bike hunt.. a real serious one.. somehow many doors were open but was not the suitable one.. but then this is one of the funny indecent that gave me, sara n siva a really big laugh..


take a real close look at this bike.. its a kawasaki zxr250. location: termeloh.

looks nice right.. so here's the story..


about a week and half ago, sara (motor foreman) saw this ad on mudah.com.my.. this motor was on sale.. how much?? a shocking 8.5k ONLY.. usually this bike is worth up to 15k in johor and peneng. but yeah... EIGHT point FIVE thousand ONLY!!! super cheap...


so quickly i called up the owner to make a viewing appointment that afternoon itself.. so we set off to termeloh at about 4.30pm raching there at about 7.10pm.. so upon reaching, i called the owner.. and to my disappointment, he said it was just sold to someone else.. DAMN.. it was really disappointing.. so we stopped beside the road then out of a sudden, the bike went past us.. so we quickly got back into the car n chased after it..


weeving through the traffic chasing a bike capable to hit a top speed of 240km/hr... but actually he was only riding at like 70km/hr.. lol... so finally we caught up then waved him to stop.. in our minds were saying that since we've came this far at least we take a look at the bike.. but the guy did not stop.. sara heard the sound of the bike's engine and he mentioned that it had some engine problems but was not 100% sure.. but too bad the bike paced up n left us behind..


so what a major diappointment.. traveled allthe way for 2 hrs n did not even see or test the bike.. urh!!!!!!!


yesterday, i was suppose to take my bike from johor with sara n siva.. but then got posponed coz they had to go pick up a bike.. and guess what... the bike was this zxr250..


the new owner wanted to sell it for 10.5k this time.. wow... making 2k.. but the finniest part was that the bike's condition was really bad.. the crank shaft was ady half gone.. it would cost about 3-4k to replace it...


i would say.. thank God i did not take it.. was so tempting that time to just grab whatever bike available.. but yeah... so we had a good laugh today about that guy being so fast in taking away the chance for us to spend more money.. lol....


anyway, tomorrow will be going down to jb to pick my bike up.. the kawasai ninja 250r.. honestly speaking its a really good deal.. if placed on a market price average it'll be at least 17-18k..

but i got it real cheap.. :P


here's the bike


sweet??? yeah.. i cant wait to ride it.. ady got all my safety gears except the boots.. damn its expensive.. but sive keeps bugging me to get them of i'll regret like HIM.. he had an accident on his zx14 (1400cc bike) 3 weeks ago.. n his leg got hit quite badly n he's still limping today.. so he bugs me to buy all the gears so i wont be like him.. hahaha...


anyway its almost durian time.. bought like 100kg of durian to treat my workers.. its almost the peak season so its rather cheap. but still 100kg is not cheap.. :P ciao...


i would say.. bike hunt 09' officially ends tomorrow at 1pm.. :)


remember to drink more H20 k.. c",)
