Suzuki Skydrave

suzuki Skydrive adalah gacoan baru kelas automaticnya/maticnya Suzuki. Sedari dulu sejak Suzuki mulai memperkanalkan type  automatic, saya belum ada yang cocok, baik secara desain ataupun tongkrongan. Sampai akhirnya tadi pagi ada saudara saya Muhammad Bardi, yang menawarkan type terbaru hasil Regenarsi atau bahasa kerennya faceliftnya Spin. Suzuki Skydrive adalah automatic motorcycle yang bermesin 125cc.
Suzuki Skydrive 125cc ini adalah termasuk kelas automatic yang saya sebut maticnya terbaru Suzuki. Waktu Suzuki mencoba masuk kelas matic, tidak ada satupun produk yang menarik hati saya. Bagi saya desainnya masih sangat kaku dan kurang cocok untuk diri saya :D Tapi dengan berat hati setelah Suzuki Skydrive 125 ini muncul perasaan kuno langsung hilang. Betapa tidak, sedari dulu matic idaman saya Mio Soul yang lebih gagah dibanding Mio standar akhirnya terpatahkan oleh sang Skydrive ini.
Untuk kelas matic, Roda dari Skydrive ini termasuk yang terbesar, seperti yang kita tau, rata rata roda matic hanya 275 tapi Suzuki Skydrive bermain dengan 300. Untuk warna? warna bisa dibilang antik dan unique, mulai dari merah, biru, perak dan emas dan tentu saja hitam. Seperti Suzuki Masa lalu saya yang heboh dengan Adira Financenya yang berwarna biru, Skydrive saya inpun kembali saya ambil corak biru dengan lebih nuansa metalicnya ;)

Gimana dengan tongkrongan?

Mantap dan tak terkira, kalau perlu bukti? silahkan coba tengok dari beberapa tangkapan lensa saya ini.
suzuki-skydrive

Konsumsi Bahan Bakar?

Berdasar informasi, konsumsi bahan bakar Skydrive 125 termasuk irit, dengan 1liter bensin, kita bisa tempuh 45km atau bisa sampai 50km dengan mode ngirit atau setidaknya bisa sampai 40km. Lumayan ngirit untuk kelas matic bukan?

Dari sisi kesisi

Sisi depan, sisi belakang untuk saat ini masih tanpa cela secara saya. Coba aja tengok kembali
suzuki-skydrive-3
suzuki-skydrive-2
Jadi apa Suzuki Skydrive 125 ini saya rekomendasikan untuk anda semua? Hanya satu jawaban saya… JANGAN BELI produk ini… kalau anda ingin MENYESAL… menyesal yang teramat sangat… kenapa tidak beli Suzuki Skydrive 125 sedari dulu…. ;)

Ride from "Bikers Point" on the Grossglockner

Just though I'd let you know we've recently added the video below of our ride down on a BMW R1200 GS from "Bikers Point" on the Grossglockner in Austria to the inter-bike Channel on YouTube. The ride down was in near zero visibility cloud cover on a cobble pavement road with 7 hairpins!




Ride safe.

   SCEM ( SUZUKI COMPOSITE ELECTROCHEMICAL MATERIAL )

Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material (SCEM ) merupakan teknologi Suzuki yang telah terbukti. Dibandingkan metode konvensional yang mengunakan liner besi tuang untuk melindungi dari gesekan dan panas, pada selinder almunium FU 150 SC menggunakan teknologi SCEM yang merupakan sebuah plat dengan ketebalan beberapa micron. Berkurangnya liner besi tuang membuat mesin menjadi lebih ringan dan ringkas dan almunium mempunyai konduktivitas panas yang tinggi dibandingkan dengan besi. SCEM membuat mesin melepas panas secara efisien untuk membantu menjaga suhu kerja optimum.

Favorite Von Dutch Sign/Taking Off

I'm going to be away from the blog for a bit. Feel free to leave your comments and I'll post them when I can. In the mean time....
I leave you with my favorite Von Dutch sign.

From the Brucker auction

Dumb Stuff: Ugly, Lame, or Stupid...

or How to Destroy a Perfectly Good Motorcycle.

I've been holding back for a bit.

This blog is mostly about what I like, but like the header says, also Dumb Stuff. Those of you who have been reading the blog for awhile probably kind of "get" what I like and what I don't, so here we go.

Ugly, Lame and Stupid... and a waste of Knuckle Heads.


Grubby old bikes are OK with me, but I don't see how just piling on Garbage is cool.

Speaking of Garbage....

Holy Swiss Cheese! It slices and dices! There's a lot going on here.


I believe Ness makes these foot boards. Money and chrome don't necessarily=Cool.


Theme Bikes. WTF? The guy checking it out basically sums it up.

I've said it before: "Just cause ya don't like it, doesn't mean it ain't fun to look at!"

Buell closes!!



Shock news, yesterday Harley-davidson Inc announced it will be discontinuing the Buell product line and will concentrate its efforts on the Harley-Davidson brand.

Apparently a limited number of new Buell motorcycles remain available for sale through authorized dealerships and production will wind down by October 30. Harley-Davidson will provide replacement parts and service through dealerships and that warranty coverage will continue as normal for Buell motorcycles.

So a sad day for all those at Buell and us in the motorcycle community at large with the loss of such an iconic motorcycle brand.

Buell will surely be missed by the many of us who of have ridden Erik Buell's amazing machines.

You an watch Erik Buell's personal video message on the closure, by clicking on the YouTube Video above.

Ride safe.
