REVIEW: A Day With Skyline 200

     

       Today's weather is sure fine. And I was having a chances to ride with my dad's Demak Skyline 200. Actually its a loan for me to ride it today, since my dad haven't ride it a few days. So while riding, cruising, and taking to work, here my review about this bike.

         First, its a bike that easy to ride. I can use it for daily use. Not like other super bikes, Skyline 200 have good mode for urban ride, even if stuck in traffic jammed. If you using standard exhaust, the sound are good and not too loud. 

      

        Second is about the style. While I ride it, most people at city look at me. Wow, I got such a nice fans around here. Of cause this is not as much as Kawasaki Z800, but this bike gives me satisfaction and its also very very comfortable to ride, either solo ride or you having babe at your back.

       

       Third one here about pick up speed. It has good accelaration, also a decent top speed for 200cc. This speed makes you wont fall back by other bikers on convoy, or if too much mat-rempit showing off to you at traffic light, its time to smoke them.  

    

      Last but not least. Skyline 200 easier to maintain. Also cheaper for the maintaining cost. Only needs one litter for engine oil, and fual for full tank just RM15 if you using RON95. By the way, this bike suitable for RON95, instead of RON97.

 

      Now we moved to the disadvantages. Of caused every bike has pros and cons here. So this is just review, so if I wrote anything wrong, please feel free to tell me. Now, the first one is, Skyline 200 has lame top speed. Its only has 5 speed of transmission. So the top speed can be reached is just 140 kph. If you need more speed, this is not the bike you looking for. I suggest you to take a super bike instead.

   Problem with certain parts. Most Demak's bikes has this problem. Carburetor . Most my friends who ride Skyline, has encounters this on 5th months after purchasing this bike. But at least this has a lot of improvement, since Demak DZM 200, the model berfore Skyline 200, encounters alo and a lot of Carburetor problems. I notice this while we having ride. Whenever my friend stops, their engine dies. Has to start again. Its the carburetor.

            Now it's time for me to go home, but now I have to go car wash to clean it up before returning it to my dad. So that's all my personal review about the Skyline 200. Okey so if you need a bike to daily use, Demak Skyline 200 is a good choice. But if you looking for speed, take a super bike, not this Skyline 200. I hope a can give you more review after this. So see you next ride. Have a nice day.

Christmas Eve, Ride with Santa

Hahaha. Actually there is no Santa at all. Its just our ride took on the night of 24th December 2014, the night before Christmas, and the call it Christmas Eve..
       The night start with a dinner at Halimah Nasi Kamdar, located on Harbour City, Kota Kinabalu. Most riders tonite are Demak DZM 200's riders. Only a few that not Demakians riders. by the way, tonite I also Demakians rider since I'm riding my dad's Demak Skyline 200. Hehe...

 (I'm test ride my friend's Superbike R1)

       Then we ride up to Tangjung Lipat, located at Likas Beach. Together we took photos that night, before we continue ride again...

           Done wasting time here, we moved up to Wawasan Plaza. Its not really a place to stay, but to be exact, we stopped at the traffic light junction. A bad place to stay. But actually we are helping our friend who has jammed his engine on the traffic light junction. But we do stay here for a while..

(Its me again, with the R1, eheee)

           That all for last night. But during the Christmas Day, there are no rides at all, but I saw a lot of big bikers staying at Tanjung Aru.

       There are Ducati, kawasaki Ninja, Yamaha R1, Kawasaki Z800 and Z250. Well, beach sure crowded but at least its not boring out there. I guess that's all for today. Safe ride and have a nice day~
