For the second time in a row of holidays, I got admitted into the hospital AGAIN and it’s for the same damn reason, some fogging high fever, also known as the "suspected" dengue. Y’know, I’d thought that my parents would take this as a sign that those damn aedes mosquitoes should be exterminated but nooo… they just gave me two cans of ridsect to sleep with. My dad just keeps rambling about how he was in the army last time and that he had to sleep with mosquitoes in his pants or something like that and mom? her alasan is even better! she says she that I talk about mosquitoes too much that she can’t differentiate if whether I’m talking about the pest or my motorcycle *slaps forehead* Bah! So yesterday I got to the hospital and the doctors say it’s a bacterial infection and it could be dengue, and that they would take a blood test if my medications don’t work but good old dad just had to insist that I take the blood test on the spot. Okay, fine, I’m phobiatic to needles and he knows that! but he still insisted that I do something optional. I dont know what happened, but this doc poked me once near my elbow and she kept saying the blood wont come out. What? You tell me. then she took 2 more needles and makes one go in at my wrist and thank god this time my veins co-operated and the blood was taken out successfully. I just hate needles. Thank god today I’m feeling a bit better and the doctor confirmed that I don’t have dengue.
Speaking about mosquitoes, yesterday I went to MZ glenmarie with the intention to service my moskito but they were too busy, so I *had* to go back to Maju to do the service job. Visiting Maju can be such a pain sometimes, they love to push people who look like kids (like me) to the side eventhough there’s nobody else for them to attend to. Since it’s my friend’s parent’s shop, I won’t criticize it that much, for now at least. So I got it tuned and serviced, changed the oil to use Fuchs’ Silkolene Synthetic oil and got a plug change, but I noticed that when the mech was draining the oil, there also particles and stuff coming out through the line, so I asked him about it and he says that it’s particles from the engine wall or something like that and he says it happens if I speed before reaching the first service period. Whoops! Looks like I really need to pamper it now, since I’ve already abused it on the first day even. No wonder it acts like it ran out of petrol even when the needle says that I have a bit more gas left..
Also, two days ago when I was at the section 8 flat area basketball court, I managed to try out amiro’s moskito which is one of the older models, on a 9K mileage period and I found that his was so noisy that it seemed like it was a 2 stroke diesel engine, but the pickup was better than mine which is a just born 1.2K one. This was before the service though, I hope after a while when the new oil gets to know the engine a little bit better the performance would increase. Even a little would help. I was searching for some tips on maintaining the moskito and any info on this moskito clan called ‘aedes’, which I think I’ve spotted before moving in large numbers at one time going around Shah Alam, and stumbled into this forum and it’s really helping so far! I also found this, there seems to be a hype over this other Taiwanese brand, called CPI, which seems to also has a model similar to MZ’s moskito for sale, except it looks WAY better than the moskito, I mean can you disagree?
I’ll take the blue pill, please.
That’s the CPI, I’m not sure what’s the model, but can you believe this is a stock motorcycle? I can’t believe it honestly, I still think it’s a custom one, but from what I understand, this *is* stock *gulps* How I wish I can have this one.. Be thankful, dammit! I’ve found that a number of other people who "rempit" at first dawn like me also have the same problem with the gas. I’m still looking into joining aedes and hopefully this Friday I can actually thicken my face and go to their meeting at Jentayu Section 7, though I don’t even know if this is an aedes gathering, as I’ve only spotted them a few times on Friday nights and they don’t have aedes tags on their plates (most aedes members have aedes stickers or tags everywhere on their moskito, especially the number plate), but who cares right? When your face is thick, you could do anything.
