BMW F650GS part 8

Servicing

Did my first servicing on last sat.
According to the manual, engine oil change 10000km (mineral oil), sparkplug every 20000km, fork oil 20000km, airfilter 10000km, oil filter 20000km, brake fuild once a year.

My service plans:
5000km oil change: Mineral oil + fuel additive
10000km : 2 platinium plugs, oil filter
Yearly: brake fluid, coolant

Tried mineral oil but dun really like the feeling of it... maybe gonna try semi synthetic oil the next round.
Just found out that the previous owner let the bike go without coolant, glad that i've finally got it filled up and the problem is gone. Bike still very underpower.. gonna find ways to improve the bike. =]

Penang trip

My first long trip to Penang on the BMW F650GS, crusing at 130~140km/h without the side panniers is a breeze but kinda stressful on me as i'm still using the stock windshield. Fuel consumption 20km/l on 160km/h speed... went slight off road on the penang mountain, very relax as a pillion an more fun as a rider. =]
