My Late Father's Modenas Ace 115

This is Modenas Ace 115. This is the bike that my late father use before he passed away in October 2022 at the age of 89. At 80 plus years old my late father still can ride the bike to move around & I believe he stops riding once he is at 87 or 88 years old. As long as I can remember, my late father used to own a honda cub 70 or 90cc (a very classic bike), honda EX5 high power with plat number starting with QAC (which I ride a lot during my teenage years), a Honda Wave 110 (I think) & lastly this modenas. 
Now my brother is taking care of the bike, he uses it everyday to go to work, moving from point A to B. The bike is okay according to him as long as we take a good care of it like servicing on time, taking care of all the wears & tares.
So does your parent (father or mother) own or use motorcycle to commute? Tell me about it. 

Yamaha PG1 Fuel Tank Capacity (How empty it is when it's empty)

Recently I've been wondering what is the actual capacity of Yamaha PG1 fuel capacity, I wanna see when the fuel gauge/meter showing below than empty how far the bike can go. So I ran a test to ride it as long as I can & see what's left once the fuel gauge meter goes below the red line. For your information, it was said that we can go for 100 kilometers with 1.68 liter of fuel in PG1 & for full tank can reach up to around 300 kilometers which is quite impressive if you ask me! 
Below red line before fuelling at the petrol station. 
As full as it can get with the 4.88 liter (RM10)
I put RM10 & get 4.88 liter with fuel almost reaching the fuel tank cap below surface. 
The tank capacity was said to be 5.1 liter, in milliliters that would be 5100, when I put RM10 I got 4.88 liter (4880 milliliters). This left 220 milliliters in the tank when the fuel gauge meter goes below the red line.
So I calculated it (not sure if my calculation is correct or not) with the 220 milliliters or 0.22 liter I can ride for another 7 or 8 kilometres away before running out of fuel.

Koshine XN150 Enduro 2020

Two-stroke motorcycles are the rebels of the riding world—lightweight, raw, and packed with explosive power. Known for their high-revving engines, razor-sharp acceleration, and distinctive scream, these machines deliver an adrenaline punch that four-strokes struggle to match. Their minimalistic design makes them incredibly agile, perfect for off-road domination and high-speed bursts. With a power-to-weight ratio that feels borderline insane, two-strokes demand skill and reward riders with unmatched thrills. They're not just motorcycles; they're pure, unfiltered riding attitude.
There's nothing compared to a 2 strokes enduro or motocross bikes! They're absolutely awesome! Undeniable beast on & off road! 

One of the most powerful bikes I ever owned! Riding offroad with ease, most using gear 3 only. This bike has 6 gears & it has a very powerful torque & speed! Tank capacity is around 10 liters & for a full tank it can go up to 100 kilometres approximately, a liter for 1 kilometres. 

150 cc made in China with all the best specs out there in the market. Most parts of the bike is the same with KTM 125sx including the engine parts. I already changed the stator coil & it's the same with ktm enduro bike, same as the bendix & the starter as well.

Good time at Openg track! 

At Rayu trail area! 

Rayu waterfall ride with Mamat! 

Absolute beauty! 

Grinding dirt all day! 
 


Thank god for Alan to help me with the transportation! 
 










Complete assembly! 
 





First time testing the beast at Openg trail! What a feeling!

Yamaha PG1 Offroad Test Out!

This is my first time testing the PG1 offroad with my son, also this is the first time I brought my son going offroad with me. He seems to like it & that's all matters to me.
At the starting point! A pose for the road! 
The route we're going today!
The map according to wikiloc! The highest elevation is 614 feet & the lowest is around 72 feet. 
Can see some  islands far away from here! This is the only part that has concrete pavement on it & the rest is more to dirt and rocks. 
Creating wonderful memories together! Hope my son will remember this forever like I will do! A selfie for the world! 
A sporting pillion! 
Another awesome view!
I like the view of the mountains just before it started to rain! Just look at the clouds! 
One more for the good times! A few minutes to go to reach the waterfall area! 
Need to hike a bit! 
"Wait for me Papa!" 
My little man is loving it! Just a few steps away! 
Hopping rocks! 
Here we are! 
hammock time! Hammock that I got from Decathlon, really easy to be hooked on trees. Seems very thin but very durable, can stand heavy load me & my son together sitting in it, worth buying.
Well I just don't wanna take off my shoes, my hammock my rules! 
Swimming time! 
Today was a good day! 
Meditation pose! 
One happy kid, another happy father! 
It's time to head home, it's raining & it gets heavier! 
On our way home! This is at FAC Matang! 
One pose for the road! It's been a great start for my son & I hope we can do this some more in the future. One way to get the bonding more meaningful to me is by riding together, well since I like riding so much especially offroad riding. Selling my 2 strokes & my KSR 110 pitbike is the best decision so far that I made. At least I can invest the money to this Yamaha PG1, a perfect getaway bike so far in the market especially in terms of the reliability! Looking forward to ride more! Ride first, worry later!
