The image of Kawasaki Z1000 stills lingers in my mind after the visit to Kawasaki Fun Carnival on 24th April. The actual live view of this bike shows it is much more beautiful than what you see in pictures.

Kawasaki Z1000 is one of the most popular naked superbike other than the Aprilia Tuono 1000R, Ducati Monster, Triumph Street Triple and BMW K1200R. I personally like this Kawasaki Z1000 since it is just pure beauty, pure simple and pure Japanese style. The design looks sharp with nice beast looks from its headlamp.

Since I’m just moped rider (I think most of MM reader is moped rider like me), this Kawasaki Z1000 will just something that I can dream of since the price for it is at RM81,100 as I look in mudah.my sales page.

Boon Siew Honda has released new bike for the All Mode Mighty that is the Honda Wave Dash 110. This is the second series in the All Mode Mighty series, the previous one is 2010 Honda Wave 110 RS. What makes this event more special is that, I was there! Thank you to Boon Siew Honda!

The engine is the same that has been installed for the 2010 Honda Wave 110RS, so there are no horsepower increase or upgrade in the torque section. It remains at 6.22kW/7500RPM with 8.59Nm/5500RPM of torque. The differences that we can see is in the overall design which is more sporty and aerodynamic. Fuel tank is able to fit 3.7 liter of petrol which doesn’t seem much, but the fuel efficiency of Honda bikes can still bring this bike far enough.

This bike has been nicknamed ‘My Secret Obsession’ which translates to ‘ Kekasih Gelapku’ in BM. This has been clarified by Mr. Tan at the event that means the bike is beautiful that it might become your second lover.

There are 2 models available that is the Honda Wave Dash 110 RSR and Honda  Wave Dash 110 RS. The RSR is the full spec version where you can get the electric starter whereby the RS version only have kick starter, other than that everything is much the same.

The RS is 2kg lighter at 96kg from the RSR version that is at 98kg which might helps to get better mileage.
