It's time I introduce you guys to my ever-powerful, sexy, and ultra-sleek bike sent from heaven. I call my ride The Orange Beast™. When I'm on the Beast™, I am the Beast Rider™. I've been commuting to and fro uni and back to my rented house for the past 1 and ½ years and the Beast™ was ever so versatile and had never given up on me even once. Bursting with a packful of accelerating power with just a slight twist of the throttle, my Orange Beast™ is the most powerful in it's class.
Here are some pictures of the Beast Rider™ and the Orange Beast™:
Okay, maybe it doesn't fit in the superbike category, but it's still a dependable 100cc scooter! I refuse to classify my Orange Beast™ as a "moped" (as some do)! Let's get to the spec of my Orange Beast™:

GENERAL FEATURES:
Even Dr. M (Malaysia's ex-PM) also cannot resist the temptation of the Orange Beast™ (see pic on left)!
I've just serviced the Orange Beast™ today, spending RM22 on the semi-synthetic scooter engine oil, RM11 for the gear oil, and RM25 for the oil filter. The Beast™'s odometer just clocked some 1,800km of mileage, and this is the third service.
I'm planning to take the Orange Beast™ for it's grand maiden biking adventure from Seremban to Melaka come next weekend. It will be a 2-day 1-night adventure to the historical town, with gastronomical fetish in between. Hope Daniel and Siu Min don't chicken out.
