Skywave Modification

Rumah Modification Tauco Custom tak pernah absen pajang motor di acara OTOBURSA Tumplek Blek gawean OTOMOTIF GROUP. Pada OTOBURSA minggu lalu, TC memajang 3 motor. Ada Suzuki Thunder 125, FXR dan Honda Tiger.

“Lumayanlah ada 5 pasien baru dapat dari otobursa. Kalau diterima semua sih ada banyak. Takut enggak kepegang,” ujar Topo Goedhel Admotjo,

Topo memamerkan salah satu karya spektakulernya. Suzuki Skywave Shorty. Topo menyebut shorty lantaran bodinya durancang cebol. “Nanti diliput buat rubrik ,” pintanya.

Uabahan emang belum 100 persen oke. Cat belum final dan speedometer belum terpasang. Yang unik pada Skywave modification cebol ini suspensi depan dan roda belakang. Kata Topo, sok depan pakai Piagio dan pelek belekang punya mobil Soluna.

TIPS Satria F-150

Tips mengatasi selang kabel rusak SuZuki satria F-150

Pulse Secondary Air Injection System alias PAIR yang diaplikasi Suzuki Satria F-150 muncul masalah. Masalahnya di putaran bawah. Paling kentara pas mesin disetel langsam. Gejalanya seperti komposisi udara dan bahan bakar enggak ideal.

Jangan panik dulu dan marah. Marah bikin puasa batal lho! Sayang, kan kalau puasa cuma untuk menahan lapar dan haus. Mending baca terus nih tulisan supaya pahala enggak berkurang. “PAIR teknologi mengurangi emisi. Menyeimbangkan kompisi udara di ruang bakar,” beber Josep Antony Tan, 2W Service Instructur Section Head, PT Indomobil Suzuki International (ISI).

Sebenarnya sih bukan teknologi PAIR yang jadi biang keladi. Tapi, komponen pendukung yang enggak tahan. Terutama tahan panas mesin. Posisi slang melintang sampai silinder head kelewat panjang . “Kelamaan getas, terus sobek. Jadinya ada udara luar ikut ke ruang bakar,” timpa Hasan Basri, mekanik Hasan Motor di Kelapa Dua Raya, Jakarta Barat.

Biasanya sobek kejadian di bagian silinder head. Tentunya enggak perlu ganti slang. Beli slang yang sejenis pun susah lantaran punya bahan dan ukuran khusus. Cara yang paling gampang sih tinggal digunting ujung yang sobek. Terus dipasang lagi.

For any local Minnesotans and Cheeseheads alike, the 43rd annual fall Flood Run is tomorrow!

I have been so busy at work, doing overtime as the weather has been perfect for the overtime. Unfortunately, this leaves little time for me to go for rides. I get out about 4 days a week, if not only for a short half hour or so, but I at least get to scratch the itch as they say. I got out for a bit longer yesterday, and thought about the ride coming up tomorrow. Tomorrow's ride is the 43rd annual Fall Flood Run. This ride benefits the Gillette's Children's Hospital.

I'll be partaking in this ride, and can't wait. It's been a while since I've been on a "real" ride. Unfortunately, I had prior commitments for the later half of the day, so my ride will have to be cut short. I'll make the most of it though.

This ride follows the Mississippi River. It has two runs. One on the Minnesota side, and simultaneously runs on the Wisconsin side of the river. More to come later. Stay tuned.

Son's of Anarchy Episode 3 review

It just keeps gettin better as the plot thickens.

It's like a good home made soup. The more you put in, the better it gets. Sometimes even better the next day after it sits a while. All the flavors start to meld.

The clown was a sicko! But I'm not sure if I could have stomached the kind of vigilante justice put forth.

'Nough said. I don't want to give away the show for those who might have missed it!
