Ok..So here's the deal. I've recently noticed my affinity for bikes has come about and not only that, it's been throbbing in my brain for days and nights. "Get my bike license..Get my bike license", the voices in my head tell me. What can I say, I think bikes are a good, correction, GREAT way to get around aren't they? They're fast, they get around, they zip away from the traffic lights faster than cars so you can basically turn around and go,"Nieh nieh!" in the driver's face. Best of all, petrol so cheap leh!
I've got it all planned out..see, the licensing system works like this. You apply for the first grading which is the 2B license for bikes below 400cc. Once I get that, I'm gonna be getting a metallic black vespa with chrome trimmings and hot pink flames on the sides. Oh yea, it's not only gonna be a custom vespa, it's gonna be a eye-catcher...Once the 2B's done, I'll have to wait a year to upgrade my license to a 2A for bikes 400cc-1000cc. I'm not planning to drive any bikes within that capacity. However, I will have to wait another stinky year before I can get my class 2 license for bikes 1000cc and above (harleys,honda fireballs, and all those other big ass bikes).
If you wanna talk about dream bikes, just wait till you hear what I've gotta say about this monster. All right, so what's my dream bike gonna be? Ever heard of the brand, Triumph? No..not the bra brand..that's Triumph International... Triumph is a bike company which speciallizes in cruisers (just like the Harleys). But what has the company recently come up with? Well how about this for a start. THE BIGGEST BIKE EVER CREATED. Called the Triumph Rocket III, this gorilla packs a whopping 2.3litre engine. For those people who still aren't sure about the engine, it means it's bigger than the engine of a family saloon. Guess what? There's more. Bloody hell, if you thought 320kg for a bike was heavy, it is.And that's excluding fuel. However, this behemoth not only goes from 0-100kmh in 2.8seconds, it outraces a top superbike up to 100miles and still has breath to spare. Bear in mind this is only a bike. In car terms, this would mean Ferrari, you can KISS-MY-ASS. It's got the same kind of pistons used on a muscle car, eg. Dodge, and 5000rpms of power and to top it off, it's rear tyre alone is wider than the front tyres of the Porsche 911 turbo. If any of you see this car the next time, go check it out and you'll pretty much have an idea of how big this gas-bugger is.
I gotta keep in mind one thing though..the next time I choose to take someone for a ride, I'm gonna have to remind myself not to accelerate too fast if I still want them in their seat and not some 50m behind on the road. Ride safely? hoho...YEA RIGHT!
