My RR - 1500 km, 9 Months and Double Stand!

Yes, it takes 9 months to ride 1500 km in my riding records on my KTNS RX3 Adventure bike! And... Yes, I know it is shy to tell such "adventure" to all my blue fellas! Here are the photos for the 2nd oil change:

The engine oil and filters

The 100% Synthetic Oil

The double stand has finally been installed too with special delivery from my big brother all the way from Kuala Lumpur. He met Pak Ya personally in getting the double stand.

The Double Stand

I will write in the next post about the group of colourful fellas... Not just blue fellas! Smurfs !!!

My RR - True Love True Happiness !

I saw a cute complimentary gift attached with a nice phrase in the plastic bag of ladies' products in a hypermarket recently...

Sigh... how nice if they put in the adventure touring bike! Na... it still awesome and real and true happiness for all bikers!

Enjoy riding is really a true happiness like what I did to my Landy which is almost near to 25 years old now with over 200,000 km in "riding" records, and it still on the road. The Landy will soon be categorized as antic (or classic) car as told by a friend.

Found the photo when my blue fella was first taken out officially on the road and my "big brother" had ridden on it to compare with his easy rider... 

His True Love, My True Happiness

The below photo is purposely turned to black and white in comparing the top photo that was taken in a hypermarket.

True Happiness Is When You Enjoy The Ride !

My RR - Identical Blue Fella

I bumped into another "Smurf" along the road to work, raising his left hand on me while riding! Finding a Zongshen RX3 on the road is already hard, but I found a same colored and model adventure bike on the road not far away from my place! What a beautiful morning! 

This identical blue fella had taken off its side aluminium boxes and added extra LED spot lights on its new colored silver grey crash bars. He looked so awesome! Well done buddy and you are the first blue fella I happy to meet on the road.

Due to safety reason while riding, I did not take a photo on the KTNS RS3 Adventure bike but I will surely meet him again because he told me that he was working not far away from my place.

Thanks my identical blue fella and we shall meet again.

The Brochure

My RR - 999 km in 100 Days!

What an adventure rider! Another 500 meters to reach 1000 km...in 100 days for my riding records!!!

This photo was taken when I suddenly felt that the KTNS RS3 Adventure bike never really had a chance for long distance riding yet and what would be the reading of odometer.  

999.5 kilometers

When will the reading of odometer show 1000 miles after hitting 1000 kilometers? I must plan a solo trip of 500 km...the baby step!

If you see me on the highway with the RR number plate... RAISE your hand :) 

My RR - The Big Brother Is Here

Riding his own bike having great time again and another 1000 km journey alone in his riding records!

He dropped by and said hello with his cruiser - Daelim Daystar 250cc. He bought the same helmet like mine after his helmet was stolen a few weeks ago.

Hmm... Thanks for inspiring me to buy the adventure touring bike and ride again. We will be the "Wild Hogs" escaping the daily routines for adventure touring rides and will definitely have more road trips together, rain or shine, in order to rev up the mileage in my riding records.

I will plan a 2000 km ride one day when time is right and let's ride together with your Daelim Daystar and my Zongshen RX3 (KTNS RS3).

Thanks again and ride safely while enjoying the knees in the breeze.

My RR - At 600km

Mesh Seat Cover and Front Fork Panels

I did a change on my adventure touring bike just before rounding up 600km riding records.

After adding up total 3 layers of sponges (about 5mm thickness for each layer) on the rider's seat with the help from a car sofa specialist, I installed the mesh seat covers which is now good for releasing heat and water... no more "hot seat" and "wet butt". It also make me more comfortable while riding as compared to the original seat. 

Breathable Butt!

Taking out the front fork blue panels seemed another right choice...it looks more smart and handsome now!? Just refer back the previous post to see the original blue panels that covered the front fork on the left and right.

Simple Looks!

My RR - Reminiscent Rain

A lovely couple called me a day while I was having my time get ready for the company meeting about a trading system during lunch hour, I  went out immediately just after the briefing to meet them even though I was told that the place was going to rain.

Less than 5 minutes ride, I reached the place and had a chat with them for just about 5 minute too, the rain started. knowing that they must go for another long journey back home, I asked them just go without worrying me since my office was only 5 minutes ride.

Standing still and trying hard make up for the lost time with the rain, I took some photo shots on my dual-sport bike, then I added some features available in the phone to edit and enhance the photo outlook. Hmm... I should have taking more photos much earlier because the rain had been really heavy.

A WhatsApp greeting from a friend: " Life is... A little remembrance in someone's mind and a small place in someone's heart!... ", and I am asking myself while seeing the photo: "how long I have not ridden a bike in the rhythm of the rain!?"

Rain makes me young again! Keep thinking... The Reminiscent of Rain! Really feel missing something in the past 20 years!? Let's ride...

My RR - 1st Engine Oil Change

After my bike was stolen about 20 years ago, I stopped owning a bike until I finally decided to buy a lightweight adventure touring bike last August and get my knees in the breeze again with a number plate started with RR through a tender. Vroom! Vroom! Let's ride, Bro!

New kid on the block and make a riding record again.

Comparing the KTNS RS3's user manual and the advice of sales person, I was quite confused whether I should make my first oil change on the specified beak-in period of 1000 km or 300 km on my new bike. The user manual itself also shows 2 sides story...

Reading the last 3 lines, in page 8, tell me to make a change after 300 km Break-in period while the maintenance schedule in page 10 shows 1000 km! Anyway, I did it at 373 km at the authorized service center. The "kiasu" fella!

Here is the 1st engine oil change...

My RR - The Road Runner!

Is it Rolls-Royce? Is it Range Rover? No... It is my Riding Records! Road Runner...beep beep!!

First and foremost, I wish to thank my "BIG" brother brought in my adventure touring bike on 21st September. We had a 600-km 8 hours journey story in a day which was fun and memorable; in short, he brought in the ADV for me and I sent him back with my MPV after failing to get him a ticket to ride!

Be a real rider, not a keyboard commando that kept pressing buttons for the past 17 years in the financial market, starting from today and this bike is the start. It’s the Zongshen RX-3 or KTNS RS3 SE ADVENTURE in Malaysia. 

The bike is a dream come true for me. Hmm... what is the number plate? Stay tuned...

Big Brother Big Bike !?
