Speed Limit Babe

SPEEDING? Not keeping to the road speed limit? Not a problem anymore. With the new speed limit babe, I am sure people will slow down. I definately will, how about you?

ZeeVinCeZ Motorcycle Diary - Part 7 - Road Rash

Riding the Vespa was fun. It is a very different feeling you get from riding a sportsbike. It is slow, relaxing, and enjoying. Unlike the sportsbike, you dont go for the thrill. You will start to appreciate the things around as you ride. Things dont zoom pass you as fast.

Well, Vespa was design to be this way but I stupidly choose to go against it. Sigh...

Design of Vespa. Small wheels, Weight unbalance on one side. Not for high speed corner.

This happened on a raining day. I was on the expressway, trying to get into the filter lane to exit. I am still a lane away from the exit and a bus is on my left. As I am so used to riding the R1, I opened full throttle, change lane, cut into front of the bus and into the filter lane. Hey, I made it, on a vespa. Phew!! But since the heavier side of the vespa is on the left, and I am filtering left and the wheels are so small, and it was raining, something has to go wrong. As we all know, there are zebra crossing on the filter lane. And when it is raining, the white paint on road gets very slippery. Unfortunately, I rode across the white paint. My vespa fish-tail like hell. No way to brake or slow down. I lost control of the bike, and I skided for a few meters.

For your info, Vespa uses drum brake, so not very useful also.

The lucky part was that there were no cars coming from behind. If not i wll surely got run over. However, the unlucky part was that I had a pillion with me. In almost all cases, the pillion gets more seriously injured than the rider. My pillion got a dislocated toe.



































































Finally..... ME!!!

ZeeVinCeZ Motorcycle Diary - Part 6 - Tried to act CUTE~~

After a few months on my R1, I realised that most riders who owns a big bike, also owns a small bike. So I decided to get a small bike too. I wanted something cheap and special. And so I got myself a very old vespa and tried to redesign it myself.

This was how it looked like at first. Me at work.














This was how it looked like after some effort. I sprayed it.














Does it look better? At least I wont find the same design on the road. I hope. To make it even nicer, I went to customise the seat.

























Date of ownership: Year end 2004 (Should be in Dec)

My gift from a good friend.

My friend came back from Taiwan and he bought me a present. I was quite shock when I see it.














But when I took a closer look, it is actually MARSHMALLOW, in the packaging of, you know what.. hahaha.... It is not what you think.














I ate it. Very sweet.
