Call to incity motors in vic park at morning, confirm that they open till 5.30 and they still sell ck125 (https://www.redbook.com.au/bikes/details/2009-kymco-ck125/SPOT-ITM-88087/). Finish uni tutorial 1 hour earlier and head to victoria park. Purchase motorcycle and its full-face helmet for $790 and $50 each. All documentation was his work. He was transferring ownership from pre-owner to him and from him to me. A document that I need to bring was Photo ID and nothing else. I need to bring translated license thought. There was original manual, log book, and spare key for it that I'm going to pick up tomorrow. Also, I need to hand in a document to dot in 14 days. The bike also have small trunk area that I can put helmet in there. After that, he let me practice the motorcycle in nearby hotel car park around 30 minutes. As I never driven manual motorcycle or manual vehicle before, starting and changing the gear was main issue. But after 30 minutes, I get much better and confidence in driving. I park my bike to the shop and pick up tomorrow as it's dangerous to drive out to Joondalup. It was fun and it will takes time to get used to it and drive safely. The handle can be locked by key that prevent from theft. The back trunk has spare helmet in there that seems to be small for my head. When I finish that stuff, I head to northbridge for dinner with podcast members.

It was around 7.30 at viet hoa and the noodle and food was nice. As the restaurant was BYO, we had to bottle of wine for 4 people. After that, went to pool and play 2 games, and head to china town drinking till 2.30 in the morning. Barfing was painful. Ola to home costs about $27 and wasn't too bad.
