Paint job for little red.

Where is my little red now?

So recently I brought her for a spray paint job over at spray workstation (SWS, Pioneer point building)! Because of some scratched paint/rusting left by the previous owner and I couldn't bear to see those "incomplete" parts...

HAHAHA I'm beginning to devote my life and MONEY to this little red of mine.

I thought I was quite fussy about the choosing of colour already.. I took 1 hour because I was so overwhelmed by the amount of colours they have!! But the owner told me a guy took 2 hours to decide on the colour of his bike last week hahahha.

Just vaguely told the him, "I want red, a little brighter than the current one, but with some glitter (lol girls....)". Never knew red can come in so many different shades hahahaha. 

Can't wait to see the end results of her!

UPDATE, 11 JAN 2019:

This is a BAD workshop. It closed down already apparently.
They did a terrible paint job, though cheap, it didn't get the results he promised.

Owner even tried to hit on me when he has a wife.

Because of this shitty paint job I had to spend another good $950 on another workshop for my paint job.

My very own (and first!) motorcycle

Hi everyone,

Today's the day!! The day I'm doing the transfer of vehicle. The day I've been waiting for since I was 18 years old, eyeing other bikers but I was allowed to take class 3 only.. Since I took my license when I was 24 years old. And now.. I'm almost 26 (lol I think I'm not shy to reveal my age here)..

I'm living my dream! 
WOOOOT!!!

Mummy and my sister insisted on coming along because afterall.. I haven't ride at all for 2 years! And of course they're really worried for me. So they wanted to see I could handle the machine.

My 2 worried family members. hehehe..

So LTA is located at Sin Ming Ave, rather ulu near industrial area.

Visit the LTA counter and the nice staff will be there to serve you even though its a weekend LOL. They close at 12pm though, so I think just try to reach earlier if you're going on a weekend.
 

I got my queue number and had to wait about 30 mins plus.

So for transfer of vehicles from seller to seller you have to have these 4 stuff:

1) A completed transfer of vehicle registration form between you and the seller (which can be found here!!)
2) NRIC
3) Insurance policy form (YOU MUST MUST MUST BUY YOUR INSURANCE BEFORE DOING THE TRANSFER!!)
4) Transfer fees of $11 (either by card or cash is fine)

The whole process was really quick! About 5-8 mins? After that congrats,

YOU ARE RIDING YOUR NEW GIRLFRIEND HOME TODAY!

That was how happy I looked. I finally own a vehicle! Although not a car (not yet hopefully in the future? ;))

My very supportive mummy and my ever so worried sister... hahahaha.

My friend (who's a biker too!) stays across the road from me came all the way down to Sin Ming so we could ride home together, and so I can be safe, and also mummy and sissy will be more at ease. Plus I might feel kinda apprehensive about riding the expressway alone. I drive, and I also know how reckless drivers can be, lorry, trucks, cars, etc..

So he helped refresh my memory about whatever I've learnt since 2 years back wahahaha. Where to stop at traffic light junctions, lane changing, blindspots, uturns, slopes and more.

He even made this video for me titled "Joyce's first vespa ride!"

Thank you WH for spending your late morning helping me out!!! Thank youuuuu!!

Still have lots to settle, stuffs to figure out.. Like season parking, bike servicing, respraying my bike, buying of raincoats, safety riding gear, and many more to name.. Hopefully in time to come I'll get everything right!

Dear 小红, we are gonna create memorable fantastic memories starting today! And singapore roads, be nice to me and my little girlfriend. :)

Hope to see you guys on the roads too!

New bike?

Hi!!

I'm so surprised after so long, there are still people (*gasp!*) reading this little diary of mine. I'm sorry I haven't been active these years hahahah!

It has been a hectic (almost) 2 years at my workplace, which I'm loving and looking forward to going to work daily... And busy with my gym stuff.

So much so the thought of owning a motorcycle hasn't crossed my mind in awhile. Although I still eye bikers and their bikes and go "omg so chioooo" on the roads.

-

So recently my friend has gotten his 2A license a few days back and was looking to upgrade to a bigger bike! He asked me if I would like to buy his bike.

The passion and love for riding got reignited. 

And.......

I THINK I'M GONNA DO IT.

Ride leisurely.. Not as a main form of daily transport to and fro work since my workplace is only 1.2-1.8km away from home.. Like 15-18 mins walk hahaa.

Probably a weekend ride... 

Plus! My height (and my short legs hahaha) is suitable for a scooter?

Can't wait to get things finalized.

I'll update this lil space soon!!
