I love to teach my son how to ride and repair stuffs the old fashion way. Here I will share some of our cheap DIY projects and repairs. I will also share some of my experience as a biker and as a pro mechanic. I am not a mechanic anymore but I still do repairs but mostly for my own machineries and this is why I try to keep everything easy and cheap. I also don't race anymore but I still love riding up the mountains where there is little or no help and all I can rely on is my small tool pouch and my monkey repair skills to bring me home whenever my bike or my friends bike breaks down.

If you are a tech-wiz or some kind of high-tech repair guru who likes spending too much $$$s buying stuffs and spends most of your time at a coffee shop posing your best biker battle gear clown costume and talking how great a biker you are then THIS IS NOT FOR YOU... Here we seriously ride our bikes and we try to keep everything simple, easy and cheap. Most of what I will share here are intended for riders who usually break their bikes to peices and may not be needed by other bikers.

I will also be sharing some cheap ways how I repaired my cars and computers. And for laughs, I will also add some weird / funny / odd stuffs that I or we did that worked and didn't work. Sorry about this blog's style, set-up or whatever you may call it, I'm an old school biker and its easier for me wrenching cars and bikes than typing on my keyboard...

For my biker buddies
I went to the beach (alone as always. I'm not a pervert OK! lol).
Duct tapped my Xperia phone on the left mirror on my vibrator-like shopping bike and went for a slow ride
Sound is very noisy because of the wind. Video is fuzzy because of the vibration (bike fitted with "Trials for competition use only tires... very sticky), bike is wiggly because of heavy unbalanced luggage plus front tire likes floating off the ground :)

WARNING!!! You'll probably enjoy watching this if you like riding on the twisties but will probably make you dizzy. Probably some beer goggles can help stabilize your vision :)



PS: Did some road racing for dough during my younger years but still can't shake the urge to tickle the throttle, 40 kph max :) even when I'm 20-plus years older... Met a group of bigger sports bikes but they they were too kind to let me go ahead on the twisties but smoked me on the straights, hahaha!
I love two stroke!!!
