The rainy season eventually made mince meat of the 32 year old trusty roof and saw roof leakage at the master bedroom and upper staircase which in comparison is good because adjacent neighbours and neighbours already called their contractor many years ago to deal with this problem, common as our houses were built during the rapid development of SIME UEP area. My contractor did a good job for RM700 closing mini cracks along the N/S and E/W roof top whilst my main concern were only the two mentioned. However, recent 1/2 hr and 1 hr heavy pouring rains required the contractor to come back twice to patch up roof leakage where rain water converge along a collector beam. His warranty covers 6 months so 5 more months to monitor.
Late last December, wifey bought me this smartwatch which was timely as my the monitor of my manual heart/BP equipment of more than 10 years has aged badly making it difficult to read the results. With just one click and in less than 10 secs, my heart and BP readings are accurately recorded in the handphone app. This gadget was actually recomended by my regular doctors many years ago but then it was very expensive and my alternative was still in good use.
My hardtail bobber is still TKO, an invalid as family commitments are given first priority. In the meantime, I am discussing with friends online who own a similar motorcycle marque or its siblings how to resolve a technical issue common among us, that is, the right carburettor of the twin carburettor setup tends to be slightly on the rich side and has been diificult to tune even among season mechanics from various workshops. This popular PD26JS carburettor as mentioned on the internet has a good reputation yet this issue has never been mentioned even in reviews at motorcycle forums. I have observed after my carburettor was given a full service clean-up, the first thing, the mechanic did was to balance the butterfly flaps with a common size wire, a common technique. There is an internal lever connecting both carburettors so tuning the air-fuel mixture screw in the right carburettor correspondingly adjusts the left screw internally. Before all this, the mechanic said the diaphragms were in good condition, common culprit if tuning runs off. lastly both carbs are balcnce by a syncronized central screw. However, the right spark plugs gets sooty after a month whereas the left spark plug is clean. I am comtemplating buying main jet, slow jets and needle of a lower number which implies less fuel enters the carburettor only for the right carburettor but finding a mechanic willing to retune the carburettor is difficult as retuning takes up lots of time easily 1/2-1day because its a case of trial and error.
We stoped by at Sri Sendayan middle of January as daughter bought a house there for investment and we went to collect the keys and went to see the completely built house which still has been inspected by all but TNB. After that we shot off to Port Dickson because all except me wanted to try the famous Nasi Daging Asam Pedas which I gave it 5* because the sauce was really creamy and hot. Myself took this traditional noodles ala Muar style was I prefer as I am pro-noodles.
