I think it was Friday 22/10/2010 when I took the bike from the shop. In the morning, I took the commuter to Bangi and asked my dear friend Bazli, to fetch me and send me to bike shop at Bandar Baru Bangi.
After we had breakfast, my era with the ZSR started. But it was a very short one before it actually overheated and the engine died on me.
I turned back to the shop and ask them to rectify the problem. They found out that the petrol valve clocked with rusted flakes. They turn the fuel tanks upside down, washed it, blew it with compressed air and they said the bike was okey.
That afternoon, I rode it back toward my home town. But only for about 10km. It overheated at Bukit Mahkota. I called the bike shop again. They came with a kapcai and we exchanged bikes. I rode the kapcai to Seremban and he rode the ZSR back to Bandar Baru Bangi.
The next week, Monday, the same drill again. The engine was noisy and everything were very stiff but at least it did not overheated.
Only after a few hundred kilometers and a few more days of uncomfortable riding, the engine become smooth and responsive. Very nice.... and I am very happy.
I am looking forward to spent a few thousand kilometers on that bike from now on. But I have to replce the silencer first. It is way to noisy for and old man like I am!
Muahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaa...........
