September 13 I Can't Stand This. Can You?This is a clip from a
Japanese TV show where the players are not allowed to laugh at the
person who is trying to learn english. If they laugh then they get
punished with a beating. I don't know about you guys but I'll
definitely lose this game big time. August 16 Maman Teachers Pet Live - 31st August 1996Last night I borrowed a VCR player to play a CCTV tape. Remembered about this video tape I kept for years in my closet of a trip I had with the first company I worked with back in 1996. Never had a chance to watch before. What a pleasant surprise to see Maman of the band Teachers Pet in the video. August 09 My Canon D GuitarAfter months of practicing, I can play a little bit of the Canon D Rock guitar version popularised by that Korean guitarist, FunTwo. Got the background music from the original arranger of the score, Jerry C. So here's my attempt to play Johann Pachelbels Canon in D Major Rock Version March 29 Rock Kapak Jamming SessionDok usha-usha folder dlm comp aku, terjumpa balik recording jamming May last year. Me, my brother Husin and his friends in Bangi Jam Studio. Layan lagu rock kapak from Search and Wings. Made me laugh hearing my own singing. Macam sial!!!! Amy Search sure has that unique voice. Those from my era can recall the golden days when rock kapak rulez. So here's my hamlau rendition of Search Langit & Bumi and Pasti!!! Teruk tak apa, janji rock!!! Pheewitttt!!! "> March 20 Johann Pachelbels Canon in D MajorI'm hooked to this song now. Kept on playing in my head. I first found out about this song when I saw the video on Youtube. Its the rock/ metal version played by this kid from New York. I must say its the most awesome guitar playing I've seen so far. Here's the video by this kid who goes by the nick Guitar90 And now I have 4 versions of the song. I like the orchestral arrangement too, found one from Father of the Bride soundtrack. Been trying to play the rock version, only manage to get the like the first 2 mins of the song, and even then its far from one the kid played. I guess I'm stuck plying slower songs like Corazon Espinado or Sweet Child O Mine March 10 Vesrah VD 131 Brake PadArghhhh I'm going bonkers looking for Vesrah Sintered Metal Brake Pad for my Naza Blade. Can't find that VD-131 JL model so far in Malaysia. Went to Welly Batu Caves this afternoon. They don't have the exact model, but the mechanic offered me another Vesrah sintered metal pad but it had to be cut and modified to fit in. Thought to myself, maybe its okay if I'm just gonna use it for normal riding, but I don't think I wanna risk using it for trackday. What if the thing broke while I'm braking hard from the front straight going to T1? Hmmm I guess I'll be smooching the barrier. Found it at Amazon.com, but after going through the whole buying process, the system apologizes because it cannot ship the damn thing to Malaysia. Sent an email to Vesrah Japan, hopefully they'll come back to me soon. I thought I saw in autoworld forum that one of the Bladers bought Carbone Lorraine. Wonder if its the correct part number. March 04 One Wedding and a Whole Lotta BikesToday I went to a wedding at Edy_954s house. The rest of the guys went up Awana earlier in the morning. Feel kinda disappointed that I couldn't go coz had some prior arrangement. Its been quite sometime since I've been up to Awana. So I made it a point to try and make it for the wedding. Arrived at the Tol Gombak RV point at around 11.15 am. Was shocked to find Zul Oren and Jai there. Jai's Blade 650 jammed on the way up to Awana. Thanx to Zul who helped him out bringing the bike down. Baim arrived shorly after that. Heard from him that ZulR1 had and accident this morning. By around 12 pm, everyone was down and we made our way to RnR Sg Buloh, through Jln Kuching, Duta and up to the highway. When we arrived at the RnR, ZulR1 was there. Good to know it was nothing serious. Then, we went to Caltex for the sponsored fuel up, thanx to Edy. Took some pictures and by 1 pm, we made a move to the rumah pengantin. Arrived at the house, and the bikers parked the bike, lining both side of the red carpet. Most of the bikers we're poofed. I understand. It was such a hot day, and wearing your riding gear under the searing heat must be like being cooked up in sauna. That's the reason why I just had t-shirt on. Shortly after that, the pangantin arrived with the kompang and all. Had lunch with the guys. The atmosphere was fun and jovial. By 2 pm, everybody started leaving. February 28 25th February 2007 Sepang TrackdayBeen a month since I the last track day. So was really looking forward to this trackday, especially can't wait to test my new Battlax BT020 tires. Again I arrived late, only managed to get on track 9.30 am. Lotsa bike. I heard more than 110. The not so good part about this, too many accidents. I don't recall being able to put together 4 laps without seeing the yellow or the red flag. Total 8 red flags and god knows how many yellow flags. With so many bikes on the track, I can't really focus. Had a couple of close call too. With my previous accidents, I was feeling kinda phobia. So I didn't manage to push myself that hard. I think I only scrap my knee once throughout the whole session, a far cry from scrapping my knees a couple of times in one lap, for every lap like I've done before. Not until the last lap, did I really manage to push hard, and surprise it was my best lap to date coz the line was not that good. I think coz the new tires hold old better, plus the smaller tires behind makes my bike accelerate faster. After seeing one of my fren picture using BT020 on his ZXR-14, I think I have more confidence to push harder during the next trackday. February 16 New TiresFinally my bike got a new set of rubbers. After one month waiting, I got the Bridgestone Battlax BT020 fitted today. 120/60-17 front and 160/60-17 rear. Hopefully the new rubbers can perform better than my previous Shinko stock rubbers on track. Felt kinda funny with this wider tires. The bike seem to turn in faster. The not so good thing is now my bike height became lower (coz of the smaller tire diameter). I guess I have to send back the bike to SBM and get the rear jacked-up again. January 29 Sepang 21st Jan 2007 Track DayFirst time out after mods on my suspension (fork bracket front and dog-bone rear). Had to get accustom to the new feeling as the rear is higher by 1.5 inches. With the steeper front fork, the bike turns faster but less stability on straight line. This is my onboard video of the fastest lap. Just fractionally slower than my fastest lap to date (set during 30th Dec 2006 trackday), but I'm happy anyway considering the bike new setup and after 2 consecutive crashes on the 23rd and 30th Dec. Furthermore I think this is the best line I did so far, especially keeping close to Turn 2 and Turn 9 which I had problems before. I think I'll stick to this line and just try to take it faster next time.

January 10 My Rear Brake PadMy rear brake pad is almost down to last bit. Hmmmm those pads sure didn't last long. 2 sets already just under 7500 km usage. I better get it change before 23rd Jan Sepang trackday. January 07 My First Time on This Live Space ThingyUhhhh first time using this space thingy. Well, its a convenient way for me to post pics for my friends to see. Don't know what else to write. I am definitely not born to be a blogger. |
