Suzuki Skydrave
suzuki Skydrive adalah gacoan baru kelas automaticnya/maticnya Suzuki. Sedari dulu sejak Suzuki mulai memperkanalkan type automatic, saya belum ada yang cocok, baik secara desain ataupun tongkrongan. Sampai akhirnya tadi pagi ada saudara saya Muhammad Bardi, yang menawarkan type terbaru hasil Regenarsi atau bahasa kerennya faceliftnya Spin. Suzuki Skydrive adalah automatic motorcycle yang bermesin 125cc.
Suzuki Skydrive 125cc ini adalah termasuk kelas automatic yang saya sebut maticnya terbaru Suzuki. Waktu Suzuki mencoba masuk kelas matic, tidak ada satupun produk yang menarik hati saya. Bagi saya desainnya masih sangat kaku dan kurang cocok untuk diri saya Tapi dengan berat hati setelah Suzuki Skydrive 125 ini muncul perasaan kuno langsung hilang. Betapa tidak, sedari dulu matic idaman saya Mio Soul yang lebih gagah dibanding Mio standar akhirnya terpatahkan oleh sang Skydrive ini.
Untuk kelas matic, Roda dari Skydrive ini termasuk yang terbesar, seperti yang kita tau, rata rata roda matic hanya 275 tapi Suzuki Skydrive bermain dengan 300. Untuk warna? warna bisa dibilang antik dan unique, mulai dari merah, biru, perak dan emas dan tentu saja hitam. Seperti Suzuki Masa lalu saya yang heboh dengan Adira Financenya yang berwarna biru, Skydrive saya inpun kembali saya ambil corak biru dengan lebih nuansa metalicnya ;)
Jadi apa Suzuki Skydrive 125 ini saya rekomendasikan untuk anda semua? Hanya satu jawaban saya… JANGAN BELI produk ini… kalau anda ingin MENYESAL… menyesal yang teramat sangat… kenapa tidak beli Suzuki Skydrive 125 sedari dulu…. ;)

Gimana dengan tongkrongan?
Mantap dan tak terkira, kalau perlu bukti? silahkan coba tengok dari beberapa tangkapan lensa saya ini.Konsumsi Bahan Bakar?
Berdasar informasi, konsumsi bahan bakar Skydrive 125 termasuk irit, dengan 1liter bensin, kita bisa tempuh 45km atau bisa sampai 50km dengan mode ngirit atau setidaknya bisa sampai 40km. Lumayan ngirit untuk kelas matic bukan?Dari sisi kesisi
Sisi depan, sisi belakang untuk saat ini masih tanpa cela secara saya. Coba aja tengok kembaliJadi apa Suzuki Skydrive 125 ini saya rekomendasikan untuk anda semua? Hanya satu jawaban saya… JANGAN BELI produk ini… kalau anda ingin MENYESAL… menyesal yang teramat sangat… kenapa tidak beli Suzuki Skydrive 125 sedari dulu…. ;)

Buell closes!!
Shock news, yesterday Harley-davidson Inc announced it will be discontinuing the Buell product line and will concentrate its efforts on the Harley-Davidson brand.
Apparently a limited number of new Buell motorcycles remain available for sale through authorized dealerships and production will wind down by October 30. Harley-Davidson will provide replacement parts and service through dealerships and that warranty coverage will continue as normal for Buell motorcycles.
So a sad day for all those at Buell and us in the motorcycle community at large with the loss of such an iconic motorcycle brand.
Buell will surely be missed by the many of us who of have ridden Erik Buell's amazing machines.
