my favourite motor 1

2013 Kawasaki Ninja 250R came in a design that is edgy with lots of dynamic lines that exudes the sense of speed and style. On the side, the fairing with the black ‘spacer’ in the middle makes it looks less heavy that the previous version of it. It now look lighter now. One of the most interesting visual here is the new wheel. It is a 5  ‘Y’ spoke design is thinner bar and gives a fresh modern look for it. 

The headlight is looking serious with the sharp angle on the side that increased to the top of the head. It also have lots of curves compared to normal headlight. It is not a simple design, but a complicated design that works. It fits for a bike built for this decade.

There is also ABS version other than the normal ones without the ABS. As we can see from this pictures, there is a series of square holes on the inner ring of the disc brake plate to give a clue that this one is the ABS brake system equipped. ABS can help for better brake control during cornering and when swerving to avoid danger. Anyway, this does not permit you from driving recklessly.

The meter dashboard features a big half circle RPM meter to help you shifts gear at the optimum RPM range for torque delivery to the drive train. Speedometer are shown in the box on the right in big digital display to help you drive in on the proper speed when riding on the speed-limited public road.

The view from the back is good too. I think, many owners after this will remove the rear fender to make fenderless like a true racing bike. This is common in Malaysia where riders put the plate number under the rear mud protector. The previous look after thought where this one is more refined and looking very good.

Now, let see on the inside. The 249cc engine block are sleeveless aluminium die-cast plating for better heat dissipation since there are no more ‘sleeve gap’ (or the area with minimum contact to the engine block). The piston are now anodized along with the larger oil pan from the new crank for better cooling of the engine. Sweet spot for the engine are from low-to-mid RPM. The improvements and increased torque on the low-to-mid RPM makes it worthy of the name Ninja.

Radiator also has been improved. Not on the inside but now it features a plastic deflector that deflect the hot air downwards away from the feet of the riders. This has been an issue for the previous version of the Ninja 250R. It is good to know that Kawasaki listen to the riders need.

Fuel injection sytem of this Ninja uses dual throttle valve. The benefit of this dual throttle valve is that it can precisely control the air intake to achieve natural linear response from all speed range that increase the combustion efficiency. Also, this increase fuel efficiency.

Chassis are from high-tensile steel in the form of diamond shape to provide higher chassis stiffness. This will provide improved rigidity. Quality of the ride are also improved in term of smoothness with the application engine rubber mount to reduce the shock and vibration from the engine.





Technical Specification:
·         Type of engine: 4 stroke, water cooled, twin parallel
·         Displacement: 249 cc
·         Bore x measures: 62.0 x 41.2 mm

playing COD: Modern Warfare 3

The player assumes the role of various characters during the single player campaign, changing perspectives throughout the progression of the story, which, like its predecessors, is divided into four sets of missions called "Acts". Each mission in an act features a series of objectives that are displayed on the heads up display, which marks the direction and distance between such objectives and the player. Damage to the player is shown by the percentage of health HUD shown on the screen. The player's health regenerates over time with shields also helping with regeneration. Mission objectives vary in their requirements, ranging from having the player arrive at a particular checkpoint, to eliminating enemies in a specified location, to standing their ground against enemy squadrons, manning robot mechanoids and other weapons, and planting explosive charges on an enemy installation. Some of these objectives can be failed, and may or may not hinder progression of the story. The player is also accompanied by fellow soldiers who cannot be issued orders.

playing fifa 13

playing resident evil 6...

Resident Evil 6, known as Biohazard 6 (バイオハザード6?) in Japan, is an action-adventure third-person shooter video game and the ninth main installment in the Resident Evil series, developed and published by Capcom. Capcom defines the game's genre as "dramatic horror", however there is disagreement among reviewers whether this installment belongs in survival horror genre. It was released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on October 2, 2012. The Microsoft Windows version was released on March 22, 2013.
The story is told from the perspectives of Chris Redfield, a former member and founder of the BSAA traumatized by a failed operation, Leon S. Kennedy, a Raccoon City survivor and agent for the U.S. government, Jake Muller, illegitimate son of Albert Wesker and associate of Sherry Birkin, and Ada Wong, a freelance agent framed for the bio-terrorist attacks by Neo-Umbrella. They must all confront the force behind a massive bio-terrorist attack with the newly developed C-virus in cities across the world.
Concept development began as far back as 2009, with full development beginning the following year under Hiroyuki Kobayashi, who producedResident Evil 4, and eventually grew to have the largest staff so far to work on a Resident Evil game. The game faced both negative reactions to the control problems with the demo and generally mixed reviews for the drastic shift in gameplay focus for the main game, being a point of both praise and criticism for different review outlets.

Recycling



     If you switch on your television, you are most likely to see advertisements which encourage you to recycle. What does recycling mean? Recycling refers to the process of transforming waste material into useable resources. In other words, recycling means collecting used material which would normally be thrown away. These materials are then processed into new products. Most of the items you use each day such as paper, glass, plastic and aluminium can be recycled. Everyone should recycle because there are many benefits of recycling.
     First, recycling reduces air pollution. When you recyle paper, glass, plastic and aluminium, you are actually decreasing the demand for new products made from these materials. As a result, factories will reduce manufacturing these products. When fewer products are manufactured, the amount of toxins released into the air is subsequently reduced. Therefore, air pollution is lessened.
      


     Second, recycling saves landfill space. Rubbish you discard is taken to landfills where it is either buried or incinerated. So, if you consistently throw rubbish, there would not be enough space left at landfills. However, if you recycle the rubbish, the amount of rubbish will gradually be reduced. This will inevitably save landfill space.
     Next, recycling conserves natural resources. This is because it reduces the need for raw materials. For example, if you recycle paper, you do not have to cut down many trees. If you recycle aluminium tins, you reduce the need for mining tin ore. So, natural resources are protected and used sparingly.
     Finally, recycling saves energy. It takes more energy to create something from scratch than to recycle it. For instance, it takes more energy to produce paper than to recycle it. Energy saving is important because it is one way to reduce the effects of global warming.
     In conlusion, recycling is a good way to protect our environment. So, start recycling!
