Tutup oli rusak, kualitas Minerva buruk

Tutup oli minerva r 150 vx
Hari Minggu kemarin ketika asik mencuci motor, saya dibuat kaget melihat tutup oli dengan kondisi rusak. Sepertinya karena dibuka paksa. :(  "Duh, kacau banget nih, terakhir kan servis sama ganti oli di beres (Bengkel Resmi), kok bukanya main paksa gini" pikir saya. Bukan cuma itu saja, saya langsung ingat kalau akhir-akhir ini ada oli yang menetes, "hmm jangan-jangan gara-gara ini nih! Besok ke sana ah, komplain"

Riding review after rim changes

The handling is good but not the speed

Last Thursday I decided to test the bike. I was satisfied with the handling. Those 2.5 x 17 (f) & 3.5 x 17 (r) rims are comfortable. The bike became more stable and braking process also going smoothly. Then when turned I can easily control the bike.

Unfortunately I disappointed in machine sector. Adapted a 40 rear sprocket I could reach only 80 km/h. I tested the bike in straight road BSD. I wonder there is a problem in my speedometer since rims changes. It runs so slow.

Next Friday I want to see my fellow to discuss this problem. He applied same rims as I applied.

Brand new rims!

Finally a 2.5 x 17 (front) and 3.5 x 17 (rear) rims are equipped in my bike. I’m so happy! I’ve been waiting for this since January 2012. My previous front rim was damaged after hit pothole in BSD road. It affected to my front tire, leaked. For about 4 months I had to be more often fill my front tire. I thought a rims change is really needed.



Actually I’ve planned to change the rims before because it looks too thin. And after the incident the plan run faster.




Here are V-rossi three bars casting wheels equipped with 110/70 (front) tire and 120/70 (rear) tire. This changes leas into other changes in rear gear, chain, and rear disc brake.

A review after those changes will be posted later.

Minerva X-Road 150s "Fresh"

On April 17th Minerva Motor Indonesia (MMI) finally launched their brand new bike, X-Road 150s in Segarra Beach Ancol.Came with Street Fighter style this bike really catch an attention.

After reading several review from bloggers, I found some improved components on X-Road 150s compared to the previous types. So far so good for MMI, this improvement is a signal that they're serious in this business.


This new bike applied wide rim 2,5 inch (front) 3,5 inch (rear) and tires 110/90 -17 (front) 130/70 - 17 (rear)

Then, is the tank cap. Better from the previous. (previous tank cap has a low quality..)


Full digital speedometer

Some bloggers were said the finishing quality is better as well as the machine.

Well, I just can't said a lot because I haven't seen and test to ride it directly. Honestly I am interested in this bike, hope I can find this bike in upcoming routine service at the dealers.

another spyshot taken from tmcblog


Reported from motorplus page, this bike is on the test at Sentul circuit and will have another test in the road. Although the date of the launch is not yet confirmed this bike is ready to order. According to facebook page of Graha Minerva this new bike called EX ROOD 150 and to be priced at IDR 14.9 million.

Looked on the machine, as we can see on the picture, EX ROOD 150 is used the same basis with R 150 vx machine just like been rumored before. From the design, headlamp, fuel tank, rear side, I say futuristic. Basically this design is characterized as a street bike/street fighter, interesting.
